The format of the two dat files has been changed by Turbine. There is no possibility of getting a new map for AC Explorer unless Zugg or someone updates the map generation tool.

i do have dereth explorer i just like using acexplorer because for me it has more functionality in the program.. i actually use the dserv with acexplorer for active tracking as i still havnt figured out how to get acx to function properly.

give up on ACExplorer until Zugg does something about it.

There weren't any extreme changes to the cell.dat though, if you happen to have some knowledge about programming you may be able to extract the map yourself. Otherwise, the current development version of Dereth Explorer has the option to extract the map from cell.dat. It'll have some additional options, though I still need to code them

I believe http://mod.beteck.com/stuff/dereth.zip

is the map Ganzor created from the last cell.dat released with the February update. Thank goodness this cell.dat included the Halaetan Islands.


To the best of my knowledge there is no tool available to generate an ACExplorer compatible map from the July, August or September Client_cell_1.dat

I'm not sure why everyone is saying that AC Explorer is dead. I just replaced the map with the one linked to above, hit the updates, and now mine looks like this:
