Re: 02 - Setup the tutorial material

Hey guys, I downloaded the tools and am trying to get setup with modding.  I'm having the same problem a lot of people are having.  When I start Noggit, it opens and then closes immediately.  I "think" I've tried to follow the steps listed by Steff in part 2.  Here's what I have so far:

1) I've gone into D:WoWModdingToolsDriveLetter (I have everything installed on my D: drive), opened the D folder, copied the containing Tools folder and pasted it into
D:WoWModding (overwriting when prompted)

2) I copied the client files from my WoW folder (3.3.5a, Not the whole folder, just the containing WoW files) into:
D:WoWModdingClient335aNoggit and
D:WoWModdingClient335aTest

3) here is the contents of my noggit.conf file (which is found in D:WoWModdingToolsNoggitSDL)

Code: [Select]
#This is a config file template. To use it rename into noggit.conf and set your options
#Edit this to your WoWFile!!!
Path = D:WoWModdingClient335aNoggit

#Edit this to your Project-Directory and uncomment if you want to use it!
ProjectPath = D:WoWModdingProjectsTutorialProjectpatch

#Set this to the file where you will import models from (the model viewer log for example :) )
ImportFile  = D:WoWModdingToolsWoWModelViewer7userSettingslog.txt

#The far clipping value. Set to 2048, 3072, 4096 etc. for a further look. Higher values need more 3d power.
#1024 is the standard value and will be taken if you do not set this value.
FarZ=2048

Again, I THINK I have the files setup correctly, but Noggit just closes on start up.

A couple of things I'm thinking:

1) I also have a retailed version of WoW installed on my pc (is it messing me up because my registry is stating my WoW files are elsewhere?).  Keep in mind, during this whole process I am not touching the retail WoW folder at all.

2) I am using a no install version of 3.3.5a WoW client as my wow files to copy.  Is this causing me a problem because it's not an actual install?

3) my noggit.conf could be in the wrong place or it's configured wrong (again I think I have that setup right, but let me know if the above info is wrong!)

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks a bunch for your response.  You guys seem quick to help around here.

I see from the errors that I obviously did something wrong lol.  Was I supposed to get the MPQ files setup before I start the program?  I was trying to follow the guide in order as best as I could.  But of course, Operator error strikes again (me being the operator lol).  

So lay it on me!  Where did I screw up? :)

Two possible reasons.

1. The wow folder is read only set.
2. You user has not full ntfs rights for all files

Inthink itnis second.  Take over ownership in settings tab. And then oberwrite the folder security that your user has full access to the files.

If you don't get it to work we will have a teamviewer session next days.

Hello!
I seemed to be having the same issues as Jermanfu. I followed the troubleshooting you took him through, and Noggit still crashes upon startup. What do you recommend I do?

Posting your Crash Log would help us finding a Solution for it.
