Subject: decal problem maybe you guys can help
I been reading the boards for about 5 hours now... and i am getting tired.

maybe i am missing something i don't know.
I did a clean install.. or should i say a clean reinstall.. i cleaned out the registry files like on one of the posts
I manage to get one pc to work.. .. My OLD one with less ram and cpu power but otherwise the same settings like this one with the problem

I know this is alpha and not the final release. I just want ideas on ways to get this working again. It worked before but it won't know..


here is my export file... what am i missing?

decal3 5d is 2.9.3.4 so i don't know about all those 2.9.3.6's you have in your setup

possibly you downloaded a test trail version of 5e or 5f and things aren't working right go to sumcarto's and get 5d.

Hiya me again,

Just a suggestion, I am NOT a computer Nerd so please bear with me if i get any info wrong.

In your AC folder there is a File that is called something like Dowloads or Injections or something, basically it is the one that sends the information to Decal when Decal requests itor something liek that.

Anyway in that file there is a line that should say "acclient exe" again Im not sure of the exact wording, if you have used Duel Client on that compuetr it will say "acduelclient exe" instead.

You need to remove the Duel part and then save the file as amended.

I am sorry if this has just been a load of gibberish, Im a housewife trying to be helpfull and not a computer Nerd trying to be overbearing.

I have the same problem: Decal will not show up in-game.

I would rather NOT go through an arduous edit of my registry, as I followed the short clean install instructions before on o\another computer and they worked perfectly.

If Decal isn;t showing in game after a fresh install....


Check you HAVE installed the D3DX update as mentioned on the ACDev forums.

Still no good?...

Goto your AC install folder and find a file called Launcher.ini
Open that in notepad or wordpad.
Look for the line that starts

'Application='

The full line should read 'Application=ACClient.exe'

If it reads 'Application=ACDCClient.exe' then you havn't done a clean install.

BadAngel1,

you still have some filters that are a "newer" version (look at the version numbers, all should be the same)

Last I knew, 2.9.3.4 is the last public release (Alpha code) from the Decal Devs, you have:
Network Filters, 1, Echo Filter 2, 2.9.3.6, , {34239EAD-6317-4C40-A405-193BA5232DD8}
Network Filters, 1, Character Stats Filter, 2.9.3.6, , {4540C969-08D1-46BF-97AD-6B19D3C10BEE}
Network Filters, 1, World Object Filter, 2.9.3.6, , {53092D1B-F0B0-46FF-BF11-8F031EC9B137}
Network Filters, 1, Identify Queue Filter, 2.9.3.6, , {B0C05A9A-273D-4BC4-B7BA-E27CF94C8EF4}

I am not sure how you came by these, unless you got them from a Decal Dev for testing reasons... but I think those folks are running 2.3.9.5... (updated for testing, private release)

You need to try a clean install from the decal Devs website, and you may wish to post this on their forums.

If it reads 'Application=ACDCClient.exe' then you havn't done a clean install.

Ok I did this and you were correct.
So I did the whole clean install again.
I even uninstalled Dual Client first just in case it was somehow involved.

I have the *same* problem still.

change it to say Application=ACClient.exe

you can't just uninstall ACDualClient and hope the problem goes away.. you should read the sticky threads in the Decal support forums... specifically the ones in the User to User support forum... that contains a lot of useful information that would have saved everyone a lot of time (most importantly, yourself)

Thanks Drakier.

(Just for the record, I wasn't blaming AC Dual Client: I love the program.)

I understand..

I didn't even begin to assume you were thinking or saying any such thing.

I was simply trying to clarify that ACDualClient didn't previously clean up after itself very well (although the newer versions do)

and the uninstaller especially doesn't do anything to the Launcher.ini file.

Hopefully with 7.2.2+ the Launcher.ini will be kept in a condition for players in a way they would expect it to behave... the launcher.ini is changed only while ACDualClient is open, and is changed back on exit of ACDualClient.

That is my intention at least, so I hope it stays that way.

I think I might have to make a change to it however to fix it in all paths and not just the configured path. *shrug* We'll have to see.

Edit:
I was also attempting to point you to the sticky threads in the appropriate forums...

If you read those stickies first, you can usually save yourself a LOT of wasted time. The answer I gave you was already in the sticky thread on the Decal forums, and you wouldn't have had to waste any time troubleshooting the issue. You could have self-diagnosed the problem as the ACDCClient.exe, and you could have made the appropriate corrective actions yourself based on that diagnosis.. all without posting or anything.

Thanks again.

Actually I *had* followed a sticky on the Decal boards. What surprised/confused me was that the procedure that worked on my one computer didn't on my second. It was that difference that had me wondering....

I will edit the .ini and see happy
