Cypis Posted March 27, 2016 Share Posted March 27, 2016 For about three weeks now (may even be a month) I have issues with: - Damage counter + in-battle clock - Colored Kill Messages with ship name - Torpedoes reloads counter over guns They worked flawlessly some time ago, and I miss them :) _Aslain_logs.zip Quote Link to comment
Moderator Quaksen Posted March 27, 2016 Moderator Share Posted March 27, 2016 All three is working for me, so I guess it's a matter of the mods you've selected, since I have some other ones alongside those 3. Looks like this one might be up to Aslain in that case :) Quote Link to comment
BirdForce Posted March 28, 2016 Share Posted March 28, 2016 I never updated to the release that came out the other day.. dont have a lot of the 'bigger' mods installed.. just damage counter.. my sights.. no fog and a few other smaller ones... and just changed the folder name and it all works fine.. But as the other poster said.. they're having no issues.. so maybe download the previous version.. just install the basics.. (damage, sights etc) rename the folder and you should be good to go.

Administrator Aslain Posted March 28, 2016 Administrator Share Posted March 28, 2016 It has to be your PC doing this to you. The installer was probably stopped by some app, like av. I played on very same setup of mods, no single issue. Quote Link to comment
Cypis Posted March 28, 2016 Author Share Posted March 28, 2016 (edited) Ok, I kinda found the problem - permissions for battle_elements.xml are messed up, a lot, and it happens after each mod reinstall, AV turned on or not. After restoring them to ALL: Permit - everything seems to be fine. Any Windows7 guuru here? Edited March 28, 2016 by Cypis 1 Quote Link to comment

Silvanas1337 Posted March 29, 2016 Share Posted March 29, 2016 (edited) I have the exact same Problem. the solution with the permission fixed it for me ! Edited March 29, 2016 by Silvanas1337 Quote Link to comment
raevan Posted March 29, 2016 Share Posted March 29, 2016 So after reinstalling the modpack, the permissions are being messed up again? Are you using admin account? I tried reinstalling version 0.5.4.00 and it messed up the permissions again, adding two wrong extra entries that Windows then detects as wrong/wrongly ordered when you try to open the Security tab of the Properties window, and then again when you try to edit them.

Administrator Aslain Posted March 30, 2016 Administrator Share Posted March 30, 2016 I have made one small change, please try this installer, if you still have issues with permissions of battle_elements after installing the modpack. http://rtor.nyx.feralhosting.com/files/Installer/Aslains_WoWs_ModPack_Installer_v.5.4.0.03-test.exe Quote Link to comment
Administrator Aslain Posted March 30, 2016 Administrator Share Posted March 30, 2016 Nice FAQ by Leo_Apollo11 http://forum.worldofwarships.eu/index.php?/topic/12780-mod0540-aslains-wows-modpack-installer-wpicture-preview-v54003-29032016/page__st__1440__pid__938314#entry938314 Quote Link to comment

To be precise: no other files (like alt_header.xml, battle_layout.xml...) seems to be suffering from that problem. Weird... Quote Link to comment

Check permissions for preferences.xml file, this file is being changed too when you select option to enable replays. Quote Link to comment
Administrator Aslain Posted March 30, 2016 Administrator Share Posted March 30, 2016 I have a new installer to test, if you like to: http://rtor.nyx.feralhosting.com/files/Installer/Aslains_WoWs_ModPack_Installer_v.5.4.0.03-test2.exe Quote Link to comment
BirdForce Posted March 30, 2016 Share Posted March 30, 2016 I dunno why people are having issues.. I'm still using the mod pack from pre russian cruisers and the damage counter and kill colors are working 100% fine.. Quote Link to comment
Cypis Posted March 31, 2016 Author Share Posted March 31, 2016 With Aslains_WoWs_ModPack_Installer_v.5.4.1.00 problem is mostly gone, permissions of battle_elements.xml are still a bit messed up (two groups added, Users and All) but they seem to inherit from each other, and give full control, so no problem this time.

Administrator Aslain Posted March 31, 2016 Administrator Share Posted March 31, 2016 Glad to hear that, I will improve it further in next modpack, hope it will work without adding any new groups. Quote Link to comment
Barracudaz Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 The latest update you posted on this topic fixed the problems after changing the name of 5.4 to 5.4.1 so thanks Aslain! Quote Link to comment
raevan Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 The newest version of the modpack didn't mess up the permissions and seems to be working fine :D Quote Link to comment
