New encyc

[LemonStar]

Ok It seems that a new encyc has been released to most of the EL world. But my client refuses to pick it. I have tried re-logging the client and nothing happens. Have been running 20min since updated was posted (according to learners post) and still nothing...

 

Any ideas why? or is there somewhere i can download the files manully?

 

Thanks in advance

details of auto-update attempts are recorded in error_log.txt... mine shows a lot of errors for a bunch of new files(in encyclopedia, not much else new at the time)

For some reason my client did not update either. I'm using linux version (files are writable).

Error log only shows this:

Error: Can't open file "./textures/fontv.bmp"

Downloading http://www.eternal-lands.com/updates/files.lst from www.eternal-lands.com

Error: Can't open file "commands.lst"

 

 

It looks like client downloaded files.lst to temp000.dat and did nothing with it.

 

I updated files manually:

- backup your el directory

- update files

mkdir /tmp/elupdate

cd /tmp/elupdate

wget http://www.eternal-lands.com/updates/files.lst

for i in `cat files.lst | cut -f2 -d'(' | cut -f1 -d')'`

do echo $i; wget -r -l 1 "http://www.eternal-lands.com/updates/$i"; done

cd www.eternal-lands.com/updates/

tar cvf ../../elupdate.20060320.tar *

- untar elupdate.20060320.tar where you have EL installed

cd <EL INSTALL DIR>

tar xvf /tmp/elupdate/elupdate.20060320.tar

You need to set the permissions for Linux to allow the changing of files

There is a client autoupdate just released. It doesn't change the program just some of the extra supporting

 

This update does NOT include the the Enc languages, those will require an manual Enc update.

 

Linux players will autoupdate if you have write permission to the install directory.

I was able to update files with tar as a user that runs game. Does "updater" checks any other permissions? I would like to solve this so in future updates are applied automaticly.

 

Also thanks for all your work. It's great game.
