Ok after todays patch , when I patch the shards of dalayas patcher it just gets stuck on Populating hashtable
This never happend before and I need help please someone
I read it and am having hang problems as well even after removing the files. I got 1 hang on the hashtable, which removing files.txt may have solved, now I'm hanging on generalcommands.html.
You could try downloading the SoD PatchFiles in zip form. Unzipping them into your SoD/EQ folder, then using the patchme method of entering the game.
Though it is highly recommended you use the patcher every time to enter the game it does say in the files area of the main page to use the PatchFiles.zip "ONLY if the SoD patcher does not work for you."
Patch files in zip form can be downloaded here: PatchFiles.zip
Edit:
After downloading the PatchFiles.zip I was looking through it, it does contain generalcommands.html which I would assume is up to date. So in theory after downloading the Zip files and installing them you could use the patcher and it wont get hung up trying to update generalcommands.html because it is already up to date.
Or the magical "Repatch All" button in the advance tab on the SoD patcher.... but then again you could do the long -patchme fix too... but you still wont have you patcher fixed
