"The error is as described. "Error opening packed file system (<Differentlanguage>)!" The <differentlanguage> appears to be Japanese characters (or something close.)"
I'm receiving the exact same error, has anyone actually managed to find out what this is getting caused by? I installed (some of this was in the evolution bundle)
* The Ruins of Kunark
* The Scars of Velious
* The Shadows of Luclin
* The Planes of Power
* The Legacy of Ykesha
* Lost Dungeons of Norrath
* Gates of Discord
I have the .net 1.1 that everyone is linking to.
I have even patched to current with a live account.
Things iv noticed: When I patch to current and I then use the SOD patcher to log in (without repatching with SOD) it takes me to the official live log in (which is expected), So I then repatch-all with the SODpatcher and then hit the patch/play button I get the "Error opening packed file system (<Differentlanguage>)!" error box.
*******************
Exactly as mentioned, buy titanium, it solved the problem. It must include some files that arn't available with the eqlive patcher unless you have bought some of the most recent expantions.
Solution really is just get Titanium.
