Latest Patch on Order has major issues

[Machaeon]

Myself and several friends of mine who just got online on Order are having some major problems:
1. Craft abilities give no effect
2. Hoard items show no hoard value
3. No option to hoard said items

Not sure what was done to cause this but this needs to be addressed.

EDIT: Problem #1 has resolved itself on my end

FIX: A hot fix for this issue has been released to all shards.

[LOVWYRM]

same here

thy Mach- you`ve been faster^^

Edit: craft abilities are back

ghosty^^

[Donairian]

I can confirm this.

[AmonGwareth]

There was no patch so nothing code-wise broke this. Give it a bit more time for the server to "settle down". I'll let the network admin know to keep an eye on Order.

[Machaeon]

Thanks Amon, will keep an eye on this.

[LOVWYRM]

Hoard prob is on Chaos too- jfyi

[Machaeon]

Apparently it's just those of us who logged in shortly after the server went online, Pharaxes showed that he did not have this issue and after several relogs I do have the issue still

[Donairian]

The problem still hasn't fixed for me either, but other people that have logged on later do not have the same problem.

[Cegaiel]

Note, Hoard Values on items doesn't display nor the option to right click/add things to Hoard doesn't appear on Chaos either!

FIX: A hot fix for this issue has been released to all shards.

[Krinharth]

confirm. no hoard value on Order

[Dacurly]

It was working fine on Monday, then on Tuesday it was not on Chaos. fyi

Haven't logged in yet today, well post what I find when I do.

[Dacurly]

I can confirm that Hoard is working fine on Chaos server for me

[Machaeon]

Logged in today and the hoard values are back

[Donairian]

Just updated and I can confirm that the horde is fixed, thank you devs

[Krinharth]

hmm. after update hoard value appears, true.
but it means, something was changed! ~8m 26 files what was changed? and can you list files?
(actualy it is better every time gave list of changed files)

Not comprehensive (things like the main binary and now the client lookup definitions are 'regulars' in the patching process) but this little list should give you a quick overview of some of the changes with the most recent patch:

If you want to monitor changes between patches yourself then make a backup of your master file list prior to patching. After patching is complete, compare the backup to the new file and you can see which entries have changed on a patch-by-patch basis.

I got another trick, for everyone, to finding the differences in patches (makeshift patch log). What Tzael recommended is the easiest way But if you forget to do that, heres how you can still figure out what files has changed since any date you wish to query.


Most systems have Microsoft Power Shell installed (if not its a free download). To check if you have it, hit Winkey + R and type CMD. Now type powershell at the command prompt. If you get an error, you don't have it installed. If you do, then you should see a prompt like this:

PS C:\Windows >

Now type this at the Power Shell prompt:

dir "C:\program files (x86)\Istaria" -r | ? {! $_.PSIsContainer -AND $_.lastwritetime -ge '04/8/14'} > output.txt

This command will show all the files that have been updated since 4/8/14 (April 8, 2014), which was when the current milestone "A Bitter Wind" was released. This will also dump the results in a file called output.txt (in the same folder that currently shows at the "PS" prompt).

Of course you can change the date to compare since last patch. Last patch was Delta 262 on Sept 2, 2014. So this would be:

dir "C:\program files (x86)\Istaria" -r | ? {! $_.PSIsContainer -AND $_.lastwritetime -ge '09/1/14'} > output.txt

The downside to this, is it will also show stuff in your /prefs folder which is going to change almost everytime you play, so you'll want to filter that out. But you could just use the /resources folder only to show the important stuff, ie:

dir "C:\program files (x86)\Istaria\resources" -r | ? {! $_.PSIsContainer -AND $_.lastwritetime -ge '09/1/14'} > output.txt

Now, I use a different folder for my game installation, so note you will see different folder names, but here is how the output.txt looks like, since Live Delta 262 was released:
