Help with Runedev.ini, can't launch game.

Hello everybody!

Well, I've been gone quite some time, and when I came back, I saw all my chars missing, though the server selection screen did show I had two chars, when I logged on, they weren't there.
So just to make sure, I started switching zones, to see if maybe I was playing on a different region before. The problem started when I selected Australia, now the client just won't launch, and I can't change the region. It tries to update, but it seems to fail to contact the servers, and it shuts down, without giving me the chance to switch regions.

I've searched and apparently this information is stored in the runedev.ini file.

Mine currently looks like this:

[Locale]
Language=eneu


[Server]
Ip=rom-aus-srv.runewaker.com
Port=21002


[Path]
Resource=.\


[ErrorList]
PosX=52
PosY=52
Width=1440
Height=759

Could someone that's playing in the US region post the content of their file, so I can update mine?
Also, anybody happens to know if the setting is also stored in a different file? Because I tried deleting the line with the server info, just in case to try if it would give me the option to configure it, but somehow after the relaunch, that line appeared again with the AU region.

Thanks and happy hollidays!

Thanks a bunch guys!

Didn't work. The launcher still fails to contact the servers, fails the update and shuts down.
The only way to bypass that is with a shortcut to client.exe with the "NoCheckVersion", but once the game client is open, there's no option to switch regions. Apparently it's pulling the region from some other file too, but I couldn't find it. Someone mentioned "Update.inf", and that they modified it by a batch script, but the file seems to be encrypted.

Can you guys try uploading these files:

update.inf
Client.exe.ini
Client.exe.config
client.config.ini
Launcher.exe.config
Update.inf

I would really appreciate it! If after this I can't get it to work, I'll just have to reinstall.
But if it does, I'll be able to upload a guide, so if this happens to anybody else, they might be able to fix it, instead of having to re-download the entire client. It's a shame that devs didn't include a restore function in the launcher.

Thanks again!

I wonder if your client is trying to connect to old aus patch server, and as such is why you're having issues(settings stored inside update.inf) I'll upload my stuff when I'm home from work for you. Can you tell me your client version? Because if you aren't on the latest and you use newest update.inf you'll not be able to patch or login.

PS: region files stored in update.inf file as I remember, but don't try to modify it yourself, even with the password you can break a lot of important things for your client.

Thanks a bunch! Yeah, my launcher got screwed after I updated to the latest version.
Looks like you were right about not being able to contact update servers. This started happening after I switched regions to australia.
They seemed to have left the option, but shut down the servers. Would be great if they'd remove the australian option in a patch, as it will render the launcher usless.

Don't worry about the files, asuming that I wasn't going to get a response untill today, considering it was new year, i just went ahead and reinstalled. Game's working fine now. I'll just avoid switching regions to australia. :P


Thanks again and happy new year! :beer:
