Hey guys,
After this last patch, I can't open 2 WoW acc. with out it being glichy. Did they change anything, or is it just my puter?
I mostly hardware box, but I do have one machine that I run two accounts on, just to save desktop space, and both accounts still run fine on it. Other than the ugly loader screen, I can't tell any difference since the patch.
Ty for looking, guess I will mess with setting to see if that helps.
I 5 box on one machine and had to redo all my symlinks and use hardlinks for WoW.exe to get all accounts to work again, otherwise one or two would fail. Hopefully that helps.
" This update does not need to be applied. It requires version 3.0.3.9183 of "WoW.exe", but you already have version 3.0.8.9464."
This is the message i get on my 2nd Account, this is after it goes through the motions for DLing the patch and installing it
I recall encountering something like it before when a patch arrived but cant recall what i did to fix it.
Looks like you have a symlinked wow copy - if you do, you can't update the second copy if its already pointing to the data directory of the first copy which is already updated. Just copy the wow.exe and launcher.exe file from the first wow folder to the second and you should be good to go (assuming you just updated the first one AND are symlinked to it from the second one).
Worked a treat.
Thank you, I'll keep a note of this solution for any future problems
