Thank you for the link. happy The "official" CoD Database gets their update monthly from me. I had included their link a couple months back, but was informed by some that updating via that link causes GoArrow/.net to crash, so I stopped adding it to my monthly post.

If the link however works, by all means feel free to use it.

I do my update monthly, then test the newest .xml on my copies of GoArrow and Dereth Explorer. If all looks ok to me (not to say things don't slip through lol) then I update all my places to Download it from, and e-mail a copy to Tim Turner at Themis-Media (CoD's Parent Company), which in turn he updates the CoD database (usually takes a couple days).

I think that all of the town portals from Umbral Hall are still in the database. Would you please check for all references to 75.8S, 83.1E? The only portals linked there should be the entrance portal to Umbral Hall, and a portal to Freehold (the only town portal not destroyed when the Town Network was created).

Thanks

I may have found a couple more:

* The town portals in the Jungle Shadows dungeon are still present in the database. There should only be the Jungle Shadows entrance, North Direlands and South Direlands portals at the following coordinates: 69.3S, 94.5E. All of the town portals have been destroyed. http://ac.wikkii.net/wiki/Jungle_Shadows

* The town portals in the Abandoned Mine also appear to still be in the database. There should only be the Abandoned Mine entrance and Underground City portal at the following coordinates: 34.9N, 54.6E. All of the other town portals have been destroyed. http://ac.wikkii.net/wiki/Abandoned_Mine

Thank you for all you do!

Are the others showing up in GoArrow/Dereth Explorer? or did you verify them via the xml file?

If it was via the file, I have left everything in the database, but there is a flag <Retired> appended to every entry. I have flagged all the original portals as retired and they should not be showing up in GoArrow/Dereth Explorer. I have checked my GoArrow and the only Abandoned Mines Portal I have is to the Underground City.

Please let me know, and Thank you for pointing them out to me. happy
