Title: 8:30PM still can't log in.
Post by: Hajo on January 16, 2017, 06:25:16 PM

Is the game up yet?

When I attempt to log in I get the following

Initialization failed with -9
main WLD_Failed-1

Have no idea what this means.

This is what Skuzzy said about the -9 main WLD_Failed-1 error.....

"Just FYI.  That error is usually caused when someone tries to create a shortcut and accidentally drags the game executable from its installation folder.

Usually, not always. Like HiTech suggested, installing the full installation over the top of the existing one will fix the problem."

Thanks Fugi!  I uninstalled, downloaded the game, copied the settings folder I had saved to my desktop and everything is up and running fine.

The desktop Icon I was using has always worked until last night.  My AHIII game was all automatic updates from the games inception. (AHIII)

Figured a new, fresh install would clean things up a bit.
