Running into 2 problems.

When I try to update, I get a


'Could not obtain updatelist.xml. Cannot update - Hosting server down?


I did download the DecalUtil.exe. When I run it, I get

'The application failed to initialize properly (0cx0000135). Click on OK

to terminate the operation'.


As a comment on using Decal, I would seriously consider leaving AC if I could

not get Decal to work. I have been playing AC for about 5 years - and it is still

fun. But a definite drag without Decal.

Ditto everything VBSLY said...

1) Don't use the Update button in DenAgent.. at least until the next full release of Decal is made public.


2) If you get "Failed to Initialize" errors, then you need to either install the .NET 2.0 Framework, or make sure that you're saving the DecalUtil.exe to your hard drive somewhere and running it from there.. don't attempt to run it from the website (any website).


I took care of most of the issues with #2 in that the link on the site now downloads a ZIP file which forces you to actually extract it and run it from the computer.. but some people still might be using other links.

Well, I saved it to my hard drive, and still got that error. Have not tried the framework suggestion tho. Will try now.


Thnx

Framework did the trick. Everything working now.


Thnx again. Much <3

i must be cursed ;p i tried the last 2 decal memlocks and even the elgar patch in between and i keep getting the same thing.

i am extreamly gratefull for all the decal devs and elgars efforts and truly believe they make ac fun and without them i see no need for ac ;P

You gotta revert to the old eltank buff file. Post for help on his forums.

Hello, im having trouble with having life tank work. Its not detecting any of my buffs and basically wont let me click on buttons in life tank. It does nothing when I click on buttons etc. I have updated w/ the util. I have uninstalled all and reinstalled all still no work. Any ideas?

Still having problems with Decal, hope you can help.

When I start up Decal, it gives me the usual

.....Den Agent

..... “The client version does not match the XML version….

..... Would you like to update now?

When I say yes, it says

..... Updating Decal components (as usual)

Then

.....DenAgen

..... Download failed

..... Invalid syntax

Then when I hit Ok, it says

..... Could not obtain updatelist.xml. Cannot update – Hosting server down?

..... Decal compont update failed!

This is all as reported by others.

I downloaded the executed the DecalUtil as you had suggested from the Decal Site.

When I executed, it says

..... The application failed to initialize properly (0cx0000135. Click on OK

..... to terminate the application.

At this point I don’t know how to proceed. Please advise.
