[Problem] Mab.dbc / AreaTable.dbc

[ferreon]

I was speak with J0K3R, and he have the same problem as me. The problem is the next:

When i modified map.dbc and areatable.dbc to create a new continent, and then i put the dbcs in DBC folder of server and in the custom patch, (DBFilesClientXXXX.dbc) in game name of ALL zones disapear:


THIS IS A BLIZZ ZONE¡¡


SEE THE MINIMAP, NO NAMES¡¡


I think is not a Map.dbc problem because the dbc that i use is blizzlike xD

AreaTable.dbc




Thanks

I have to say that when i want to use the aretable.dbc every name is gone, without that dbc every name is shown correctly.
Btw i used steffs custommap1 thing^^

I used custommap1 too but only for the adts... i modified my custom areatable.dbc but nothing nothing... any solutions?

The problem here is that the DBCs supplied are for a german (deDE) locale. Whoever put them up did not think or does not know shit about DBCs. Even if you "repair" these DBCs, you won't end up with the correct result but with all names being in german.

The only solution to this is doing the DBC changes by hand, based on your locale's DBCs.

I tried modifiing my locale Areatable.dbc (esES) but either...

The error can not be the same, as the error described (names missing) does come from that cause only. If you are getting the same error, you are having the same cause.

[Jøk3r]

I will try what you said schlumpf. Will reply if i have done it.

Hmm the I had this problem not. I user the DE for the client and a en for the server. The server give me an error if i use the german one there also. So i have to change always 2 DBCs. But I have all names ingame.

Because you are using an deDE client with deDE DBCs. Why should it be bugged? It is bugged as soon as you use xxXX DBCs wih a yyYY client. The server does not matter at all.

Yes I just want to tell that it works if U use the right DBCs. Also take care to fetch the right DBC to start with.

The point is that you supplied that ready to use package which itself is broken. When just using those files as any normal person would do, you end up with a fucked up client.

[Steff]

Its not fucked up but onyl for german clients ready to use. If someone wanted he could just upload an en version or so.  But you know, most just want get and not give. And I have not the time to fix this and the most get it to work and wirte me that it helped much.
