AOREPAIR.EXE: Strange icons? Broken database... may help

Post by Chrisax »

If suddenly strange icons appear in you inventory (like the generic "no-real-icon set" icon blue corcle with a "?"), if you have a reason to feel your database is broken (trouble with items and ytheir icons...), if you feel something is strange in the way items and places react, you can download and try aorepair.exe. It may help.

This is not a tool for only patch 18. It works with all AO versions.

Edit, new URL's:
ftp://ftp.funcom.com/cd/patches/aorepair.exe

or

http://www.athenpaladins.org/down/aorepair.zip (and unzip it; it's the .exe file)

That said, I don't know how this tool (from 2006) works today in all situations.

Dang I had that after the S28, 35, 13 went insteanced

But.. the weirdness is that I moved my operating folder to my documents to fix it.

Apparently it was a Vista tweak not a AODB problam.

Funny, I do a google search looking for this and end up here :) . Anyway, I'm still working with FC on the connection issue. But I do need this tool and can't pull up ftp://ftp.funcom.com/cd/patches/aorepair.exe... is there another place to get it before i rip my hair out?

You would think FC would add it with the game, like some of the other gaming companies do, but noooo! They have to be difficult. :roll:

Just ask Lil' Chrisax, as usual:

ftp://ftp.funcom.com/cd/patches/aorepair.exe

or

http://www.athenpaladins.org/down/aorepair.zip (and unzip it; it's the .exe file)

That said, I don't know how this tool (from 2006) works today.
