I am about to bring the server down and update the daris module with the new hak pak.

The gateway will still be available and wont be updated with the new hak pak until tomorrow.

Once it is brought back up you will NOT be able to connect to the daris module without downloading and installing the latest version of the hak from the neverwinter vault

Click here to download the required hak pak files.

Click here for information on what the new hak pak contains.

When it comes back up, I will be available to offer any assistance I can to get players who are stuck up and running as soon as possible. Try sending a message to me via the DM channel in the gateway, or, use my msn or icq (the details are available via my profile) to contact me.

After a few teething problems, we have discovered that several files were omitted from the originals that were posted to the Neverwinter Vault.

The link in the post above will take you to a page where the new ones are now available.

Those who have not already downloaded them prior to this post, please download all files as normal.

For those who downloaded the files prior to this message, you will need to also download the following:

dasaria_016.tlk
das_2da_016.rar
das_tile_001part1.rar
das_tile_001part2.rar

Important Note -

The das_tile_001part1.rar and das_tile_001part2.rar files, due to their size, will NOT be a requirement until Monday next week (June 20th) when another update will be performed to add the new tilesets. This is to give our dial up users a chance to download them before the module is updated to use them, after which time, all users will need them to connect to the main dasaria module. Downloading and installing these two files will NOT impact your ability to connect to Dasaria before this date, so all players should download and install them at their earliest convenience.

At 8pm Central Time this evening (Monday, June 13th) the daris module will be updated using the dasaria_016.tlk and das_2da_016.rar files.

Those that wish to play after this time will need these two files, as well as the others listed on the vault (not counting the tileset haks previously mentioned).

We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause. It was a simple oversight, and one which we hope does not impact you all too greatly.

If you have ANY issues with any of the above, please do not hesitate to contact either myself, or one of the other members of the DM staff for assistance.

Hm... The das_mainpart02.rar and das_tile_001part2.rar and das_main2part2.rar open as empty folders.

I guess they might be automatically extracted when part1 is, but then, wouldn't the extension be .01 or some such?

I hope I won't find my computer can't run Dasaria

If you download part 1 and 2, just extract part 1 to the correct folder, and it should take care of itself. At least it did for me using winrar.

Just a friendly reminder that the new version goes live in just under one hour (8pm, Central Time). You will need the new hak pak in order to connect (minus the tiles hak) after this time.

The current uploaded version of The Gateway does not run yet with the new hakpack.

This means that if you remove anything from the old files, you will not be able to spawn into the gateway.

Trust me. You can't. I just tried. I failed.

So don't throw away anything just yet, make backups from the files if you do throw something away. We'll let you know when the gateway is updated too.

All you have to do is download the new files. You don't have to do anything else. Download, install, play.

Kell was confused and deleted some files, that is why she had problems. If you don't delete them then you won't have any problems.

The only part that is different at all from previous haks is that the files are split into two parts. The only thing you need to know about that is: Download them both to the same folder. Only try to extract part 1.

No, actually, I thought I was smart ridding my HD of space by tossing out haks I didn't need anymore. I wasn't confused. I was just being daft.
