Title: WMV not loading MPQ
Post by: PhoenixDBlack on May 13, 2017, 06:45:53 pm
Hey there,
 I packed some .wmos into an .mpq to use them in noggit (to convert it to 6.2.4 later)
But the WMV will not load the MPQ, it just errors out:
Code: [Select]
18:38:29: Opening D:\WoDModding\Clients\3.3.5a\Data\patch-a.mpq
18:38:29: Error opening archive D:\WoDModding\Clients\3.3.5a\Data\patch-a.mpq

18:38:30: Opening D:\WoDModding\Clients\3.3.5a\Data\enUS\base-enUS.MPQ
I am not quite sure how to tackle this problem as it will not load the MPQ.
I already searched for various keywords, but i can't find a thread similiar to this.
Thanks in advance

Incorrect path? Incorrect access rights to file? Missing listfile? Can't think of more possibilitties.

Hey Amaroth, thanks for that quick response! What do you mean by Access Rights?

Right-click a file, go to its Properties, take a look at Attributes at the bottom of dialogue window which appears.

Side info: WMOS dont need to be converted to 6.2.4 3.3.5 wmos work in a wod client

It is the other way around. I want to place 6.2.4 Wmos in Noggit  (which is based on 3.3.5) to use them in the WoD Client

Have you tired to create the mpq from scratch from a folder?

What version of MPQEditor are you using? I had all kinds of issues with some of newer versions, resulting in corruption of MPQs and so on.

I keep using old 3.2.0.535. This version works flawlessly for me. I really suspect that you've got corrupted archive in some way.

Also just try to create an MPQ from a folder like i describe in the tutorial. Also name it .MPQ not .mpq. Was a problem in the past. Don´t know if still is.
