Subject: Decal and Virindi Tank help needed
I just fired up AC yesterday after leaving in august and am running into major Decal and Virindi Tank problems on one of my computers.

Everything seemed fine but when I logged in a character I was getting some weird popup error message but if I clicked on okay I could get into game just fine and play just fine except I couldn't get Virindi Tank to work. All other decal apps worked fine and updated to checkmarks.

So I decided to try and fix it and apparantly screwed up everything. First I unistalled then reisnstalled Virindi Tank. After doing that I couldn't even log in any. When clicking on a character at login screen my AC client would just stop working. So I inistalled and reinstalled Decal. Now ot won't update and I get all red X's.

I am not even the least bit computer savvy and this is on a wiondows 7 computer. Everything used to work fine and as recently as yesterday everything BUT Virindi Tank worked fine.

Now I am at a loss as to what to do? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Another thing. Since I redownloaded decal when I try to bring it up I get an error message telling me my AC Client is out of date which I don't understand?

I had that same error message because my client wasn't patched. Make sure you've got the latest patch running, or maybe decal just doesn't recognize it if you've installed decal but haven't logged in. I'd log in, log out, then hit update on your decal, may fix some of the problems.

Thanks for the reply but none of that works. I can log into AC and have the current patch but when I bring up decal it says my AC Client is out of date and nothing will update. BEFORE I reinstalled Decal it worked fine (ie yesterday) except for Virindi Tank. Now I cannot use decal at all?

a) What OS are you running and if it's vista or later, did you install it outside of the default directory?

b) Where's your export? Without an export it's like calling a doctor and saying that your big toe hurts and expecting them to tell you what's wrong with it.

"a) What OS are you running and if it's vista or later, did you install it outside of the default directory?"

As I stated in OP I am running Windows 7. I have no idea what a default directory is? It worked perfectly until I quit playing this summer then I fired it up again yesterday. Except for Virindi Tank it worked perfectly YESTERDAY.

"b) Where's your export? Without an export it's like calling a doctor and saying that your big toe hurts and expecting them to tell you what's wrong with it."

I have no idea what an export is.

The standalone version of Virindi Tank is currently not functional due to changes related to void magic. Only the bundle version works.

If you do not want all the stuff in the bundle, you can always install it and then uncheck the other plugins in Decal.

Thanks! Installing the bundle fixed my Virindi tank problem on my other computer.

But on the computer in question I have still somehow totally screwed up Decal by trying to reinstall it it. If anyone could please explain how to fix whatever I screwed up by reinstalling I would greatly appreciate it. I am not knowedgeable in any way or facet of the workings of a computer. When people speak of default directories or exports I am 100% clueless.

Decal DID work on this computer for years even as recently as yesterday. If anyone could give me a step by step way to get it back to that I would really appreciate it.

There are directions in the sticky post at the top of this board, about 4 posts down. Read them and follow them exactly and if you are confused by what any of the steps mean just ask questions.

Thanks. I am guessing you refer to this???

1. New install of Windows 7 - 64bit
2. Download and install all updates for Win7
3. Download and install the Asheron's Call client from http://ac.turbine.com and click on "Client Download"
3a. While installing, be sure to change the install path from "C:\Program Files (x86)..." to "C:\Games" This is VERY IMPORTANT
If you have copies of the current client_cell_1.dat, client_highres.dat, client_local_English.dat, and client_portal.dat, copy them to the directory that you installed to.
4. Launch AC, log in and update to ensure that you have successfully installed AC. Answer "Allow Access" to any firewall messages that pop up.
5. Install DirectX 9.0c
6. Install Decal
6a. Again, it is VERY IMPORTANT to change the install path during the install. Change it from "C:\Program Files (x86)" to something like "C:\Games"
7. Find Decal running in your system tray. Right click, and select close.
8. Right click on Decal on your desktop, and select "Run as administrator"
9. Right click on Decal in your system tray, and select "Configure".
10. When prompted stating that "One or more of your XML files were not found!", click on the OK button
11. Click on "Update" and wait for the window to refresh with black checks instead of red x's.
12. Again, load Asheron's Call to ensure that you have no problems logging onto the server. This time, you should actually enter the game to ensure that Decal is loading properly. You should see the decal bar with the DHS icon in the upper left corner.


If these are the directions to which you refer my question is this

6a. Again, it is VERY IMPORTANT to change the install path during the install. Change it from "C:\Program Files (x86)" to something like "C:\Games"

How do I do this?

when you go to install it, it will give you the option of where you want to put the new folder. Vista and windows 7 don't really like it when you run certain kinds of programs out of the program files folder because of some security stuff. When it asks you where you want to put it, just go to browse, and put it in your games folder. Not positive, but it doesn't HAVE to be in your game folder, I'm pretty sure I just run mine out of a folder I made in "my documents." The important thing is you cannot run it out of "program files."

No it won't? It just installs into the program files and I don't know how to stop that from happening.

When you are installing Decal, select custom install instead of typical. You will then be able to choose which directory to install to.

Okay still having problems. The custom install in a new folder no longer gives me the AC Client error and Decal updates. But it won't show up in game????

I sure wish I wouldn't have screwed around with this as it worked yesterday? Now with decal updated what is my next move to get it to show up in game?

Try this first....

Uncheck this and see if it fixes the problem :

Services, 1, Virindi View Service Bootstrapper


If that doesn't do it, install Microsoft .NET 1.1

There are a few plugins that require it. Not sure if Vtank is one of them or not.

from what I recall of VI's words, vtank doesn't require NET 1.1; but installing it can NOT hurt.

one POTENTIAL problem i note is alinco 1.5 and not alinco3 1.0.1.9 or 1.0.1.10

Still no luck sad

Unchecked Virindi view bootstrapper - no difference
Downloaded NET 1.1 - no difference
Unchecked Use ALternate Injection Method - no joy

One thing I do notice though is when I click on decal I used to get a pop up messaage asking me if it was okay and now (that it isn't working correctly) I don't get that popup so I am guessing I am not connecting to something I should?

New export with location checked. Hope this helps solve the mystery! I greatly appreciate all of the help and feedback.

It still says you're using the alternate injection method.

After you uncheck it you will have to exit decal and restart it.

When you installed decal, did you point it to the correct folder that AC is in?

Likely not. I don't remember any sort of option like that given to me?

I honestly don't think this is my problem or will help as Decal worked as recently as Saturday without this stuff. Besides I couldn't figure out how to use that Dual client link as it is a very busy confusing looking websight.

Decal is working but AC isn't recognizing it, this is my problem right now.

try using explorer to go to each of the decal plugins and enable it to run in xp compatability mode, as well as decal


and why are you running the outdated alinco 1.5 instead of alinco3 1.0.1.9 or .10?

ALSO note you do not have alinco 1.5 installed to the c;/games but the more restrictive program files. IF it is being blocked from writing and loading it can prevent (possibly) decal from continuing to start up.

I don't understand what you mean about using explorer?
I will delete Alinco as I don't need it but it worked 3 days ago.

Sorry sad I am just confused and depressed about this.

Saturday I fire up AC and decal for the first time in 4 months. Everything is fine except VTank. I later find out it is because the single VTank no longer works and I need the bundle.

But before I discover that I uninstall/reinstall decal which totally breaks decal? Decal was originally in it's default programs file folder but it worked anyway. Now when I reinstall to that default folder it won't update. So I reinstall again in it's own folder and it updates. But now AC won't recognize it.

I know nothing about the innerworkings of computers but I am pretty sure it is likely something simple like a switch or a setting but I just can't figure out what that is.

When I get home tonight I will start again from scratch. I hope someone can steer me right otherwise I fear my 11 year AC journey will have come to a final end which I don't really want but will have to accept.

I am truly appreciative of all of the help and ideas that have been offered.

explorer aslo known as IE 6, 7 or 8 the window into your computer for finding files ect

once you find the pluging exe you right click on the file name and bring up the PROPERTIES window. go to compatability and make the adjustments to the file - that is compatablity tab check RUn this program im compat mode windows XP sp 2 and click on the privilege level to run program as administrator.

when you install/ed decal you were given an option to point decal to the location of your AC files directory. failing to do this may be the reason 'ac' is failing to recoginize decal.

When you get to this step, the VERY LAST THING you will see will be a window asking for the location of your AC install. Make sure you don't skip over this step.

The problem you are having is pointing to this being the culprit.

I followed these instructions exactly. Still doesn't work sad Still get same meassage that AC cliet is out of date (yes I have new patch). I will try one more time from scratch tommorrow and if that doesn't work I guess I have to call it a career.

Decal failing to show up in AC is usually because of:

1) It is failing to inject properly

2) Interop assemblies not properly being removed from the Global Assembly Cache, which is a more complicated problem and not one that most people on this board are aware of. When you have 2 copies of the Decal Primary Interop Assemblies (PIA) then the .NET service will fail to load and this causes Decal itself to fail.


If Decal isn't injecting properly, ACDualClient can actually fix this problem as it has its own inject method which is different from both of the Decal methods.

Didn't know about Dual Client having its own injection method. Nice to know.

Again I would like to thank everyone who tried to help me but it just won't work. I have tried everything multiple times with no success. It's really frustrating because it did work before I unistall/reinstalled but now is a mystery.
