[RESOLVED] Problem opening 4.3.4 world.MPQ, world2.MPQ
« on: January 25, 2013, 05:03:05 pm »
Hi everyone, I recently got some inspirations to do some modding; namely an edit involving extracting cataclysm m2 files and this is where Ive run into a problem. I open up Ladik's MPQ Editor and proceed to open up world.MPQ just like I would any MPQ and in the process of trying to open the MPQ I get the message "Ladik's MPQ Editor has stopped working". Im not entirely sure what the issue is or what Im doing wrong but Im sure someone has had this issue before or something has to be wrong otherwise there would be no cata modding? Thanks in advance to anyone that takes the time help me with this issue.

Wow Version: 4.3.4.15595
Ladik's MPQ Editor Version: 3.5.0.735

Possibly missing control over the file ?

wow folder -> settings -> compatibility -> your user -> press edit -> allow "full control" -> let it run through -> profit.

Repeat with the file.

Else, try re-downloading Ladik. Could also be that you require administrator mode, but I am not entirely sure there.

Cataclysm uses backgraund download, so your patches may be incomplete.
Try openinig wow in a 4.3.4 server and let it download all the data.

Thanks so much for the really fast response. Ive tried to run Ladik's in administrator mode to no avail. I highly doubt its anything to do with permissions so let me ask this: Does anyone know how I can get a "working" 4.3.4 client because if this error is really caused by incomplete files then manually patching to 4.3.4 isnt doing to trick or, again, maybe Im doing something wrong -_-

How exactly do I get to these options ?

The first link works although the download speed is 170kbps~

The next 2 links I get this message
Quote
Forbidden
You don't have permission to access

And the last link I get this message
Quote
Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at

ps: had to remove the urls because the forum wont allow me to post urls

Try to use http://downloads.reignofdarkness.net/ca ... ate434.exe
It will update any version of cataclysm to 4.3.4

After redownloading 4.3.4 it works, it was indeed incomplete files. Thank you Ascathos and osler for helping me out, really appreciate it.
Marking this as resolved
