The Hidden Forest

So I decided to try out this server and I ended up playing on it for like 12 hours yesterday so today I decided to get the files needed to enjoy it.

I downloaded the THF patcher put it into the game DIR and ran it. Apon startup of the patcher I get an error saying to quit the patcher or hit continue to ignore it.

No matter what I try the patcher will not install the files it just sits there saying "installing" This is what it says under details

See the end of this message for details on invoking
just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.

************** JIT Debugging **************
To enable just-in-time (JIT) debugging, the .config file for this
application or computer (machine.config) must have the
jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section.
The application must also be compiled with debugging
enabled.

For example:

<configuration>
<system.windows.forms jitDebugging="true" />
</configuration>

When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception
will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the computer
rather than be handled by this dialog box.

Same here.

I installed THF on my laptop successfully 2 days ago with no incident. Patcher ran fine.

Same problem here... 404 error from .net

Nothing has changed on my installation for weeks.. ran the patcher this morning and it errored.

Sounds like we need an admin to read this post and let us know whats going?? I'm new here so I have no clue so some insight would be nice

The patcher was not changes for a good while so I'm really not sure what to tell you guys. I'll look into it anyhow.

is there a way to manually get the files? so I can at least play?

viewtopic.php?f=37&t=10443 the manual DL for xp might still work

I dunno what you did, but it seems to have fixed it here patched this morning and it downloaded the new files with no errors.

V fixed it. Should be working now but everyone will need to run the patcher to let it auto-update to the new version. Thanks for the patience.

/cheers

Sorry but not fixed, still getting same error
