[QUESTION] Creating your own continent.

[Ilvey]

Hi again, since last week i've been trying to make my own continent and i've tried to do it over 8 times now. Every time it gives me this error:

Code: [Select]

This application has encountered a critical error:

ERROR #121 (0x85100079) Version Mismatch
Program: C:WoW_WoTLK_WOS_335aWow.exe

DBFilesClientMap.dbc has wrong number of columns (found 126, expected 66)
Does anyone know what i've been doing wrong the whole time? I've been following Sebbo's Tuturial here on Modcraft, and in case you need my MPQ file here scroll down to the attachments. The file is only 1.30 MB which I also find weird cuz its so little MB.

Kind regards,
-Ilvey


(EDIT: I cannot attach the MPQ to the attachments option so ill make screenshots of it.)

I have two things on my mind.

One, you didn't crack your WoW exe?
Two, adding the dbc to your server DBC folder? Not sure if thatone's needed for a custom continent, though, since I rarely build on custom maps.

Map.dbc is corrupted, you have to extract a new one from Patch-xxXX-3.MPQ and modify it. Sure you edited wrong your dbc or maybe you edited another and saved such as Map.dbc.

Well I got my 3.3.5a WoW from piratebay, i've got all the original cd's but im geussing that when i try to update it it will update to one of the MoP patches, I did not add the Map.dbc to the server DBC folder since it said that it is only required for Aspire or Trinity and im running it on ArcEmu, but ill definetly try it out :-)

Well if im right I extracted the Map.dbc from locale-enUS.MPQ (or something similar) ill try to find it in Patch-enUS-3.MPQ and after I extracted the Map.dbc I didnt do anything with it if im correct I just placed in inside my patch, geuss im doing something wrong there?

EDIT: I did modify the Map.dbc, Ive done the String thing and added the tileset for the custom continent, totally forgot to mention that.

Try downloading the DBC folder from another site, cause if you download directly your wow from piratebay maybe the files are corrupted, my wow is esES so I can´t give my Map.dbc.

Sorry my english, Ferreon.

Alright thank you very much, ill download them from a site

Read the tutorial series. In Part 2 i tell that its a good idea to just extract all client files. This way you have always the right files and don´t run into problems.

[Ilvey]

Alright Steff, I think i figured it out, I did not change the Map.dbc in the Arcemu/DBC files so I geuss thats what the error is. Ive made a little stupid mistake lol im going to try it again and will reply as soon as ive tryed it again :-)

well it worked?

[Ilvey]

Actually it did not, ive tryed it 3 times today but it keeps giving me the same error, my patch looks good to me but when I try to startup WoW it gives me this error;

Code: [Select]

This application has encountered a critical error:

ERROR #121 (0x85100079) Version Mismatch
Program: C:World of Warcraft 3.3.5a (no install)Wow.exe

DBFilesClientMap.dbc has wrong number of columns (found 126, expected 66)
Ive followed the Sebbe's guide, Steff's guide and Uelo's guide but they all 3 didnt work for me somehow.

I wish I could post my MPQ but I dont have 10 posts yet and attachment option wont let post it.

I'd love to hear suggestions on how to fix this error.

Kind regards

EDIT, got 11 posts, if anyone wants to check out the patch, here it is; http://www.filedropper.com/patch-4

Your map.dbc has not the same estructure that the 3.3.5a dbc. Try this:

[Ilvey]

Sorry im totally new to this.. do I need to put the Map.dbc inside of my server folder, into my patch or into locale-enUS.MPQ?

[Steff]

In client AND into server.
Put DBCs always into an local patch.
patch-enUS-4.MPQ

[Ilvey]

Ive tried every possible thing and everything that you've all written here, would it be possible to help me via teamviewer cuz I got no error anymore while trying to start wow, yet when I replace the Map.dbc from my server I get the same error from the server that I had earlier from wow.. Ive replaced Map.dbc within the locale-enUS.MPQ patch and got a patch named patch-4.MPQ and patch-enUS-4.MPQ.

If anyone could help me set it up over teamviewer I would be more than happy.

Kind regards, Ilvey
