**Snugglebunny** · 24th March 2007, 09:38 AM

Since the new patch has anyone else gotten data stream errors on UOA?

Happens all the time until UOA catches up with the patch.

2-5 working days usually and your macros are crap until then.

Macros are still working for some of my chars. Some are still gone. I re-did them last night, but they didn't save. So some have no macros when I logged in this morning.

Hello hello,
I've posted this before but I'll remind folks again.

If you see the UOA error after a patch, don't continue to log in.

Go to the UOAssist installation directory.
Find the directory called UOA-Settings
(In there you will see account | shard | character)
Simply "COPY" the character folder to the account folder.
Then all your settings are preserved. When you notice the error message has gone away, "MOVE" the folder back so that any changes you've made are saved.

Do not do this while in game.

The reason I mention not to continue to log in, is that if you do, UOA will make a new character folder for you under account. And you can become confused which folder is good and has present working macro's ect.

Now you will have to do this for every character you want to play, for every account, shard ect.

Heck in days long past, I even made a batch file to do the copy and moving for all my character.

This doesn't break anything, doesn't mess anything up, nor is it harmful. UOAssist is just confused due to the data stream, and reverts up one directory/folder for its settings. (think its an old setting/format style before OSI/EA put in data encryption)

Good Luck,

Ooh thanks F'Nor. I'll save that now in case it happens again.

Saw the sticky, thanks F'Nor!

I did all this and it still didn't fix it for me. I even uninstalled and reinstalled UOA and i'm still getting them :| My system must be wonky.

You will still get the data stream errors until Tugsoft fixes up their end. This fix is only intended to transfer all your macro's and things for UOAssist.
