How to know what is causing this

Alright so basicly just manually updated fabs with the as3 client (I changed dat1, dat0, equipmentsets, descriptors and added all new xmls and sprite things in)

After all this server runs fine, but client gets blackscreen. Its pissing me off and Id like to know if theres anyway to know whats causing the black screen...?

Client version and server version need to match. Also sometimes if the XMLs are screwed up then your client won't load into nexus.

you could also create a new sprite sheet

try debugging the client

Nope client version definitly good. Xmls should be perfectly fine since I grabbed everything from appspot using a program I made, even dat1 was made using those xmls.

If you are talking about the debug flash player thingy I tried but it crashed each time I opened the client with it :/

instead of replacing the image, try expanding the size to match up with prods and then adding the additions there. ([control + r] if PAINT.NET)

I heard some people are able to update like this though and doing it for every image might not be optimal in time. Plus if it doesnt work, another 3 hours down the drain Cx

it crashes because it found the error
check intellij status at the bottom to see if it shows error (keep the client open, if u end client it goes away i believe) or wait few seconds and box should pop up
make sure u are running adobe air debugger client

Well you seem to be right since the errors after debugging all seem to point to images

If anyone might have an idea / might be able to help add me on skype so I can show more in depth stuff.

theres a few items which are new in the xmls that aren't coded into fabs. Which is why you're getting those errors. So it is best to just remove them from the xmls. The pet stones don't work, the vault and char slot items aren't going to work, and a few others aren't going to work.

edit: http://www.mpgh.net/forum/showthread.php?t=1231463 i had the same issue. This might be able to help as well

issues that could be causing it:

The playersSkins sheet, is not the same size as the playersSkinsMask sheet.
The PetSkins8x8, is not the same size as the PetSkins8x8.

Well id be suprised since I copy + pasted the new masks too I think but ill check it out
EDIT: Yeh the appspot mask, for the petskins, anyway isnt the proper size. I'll try to see if that fixes it after.

Doesn't seem to have fixed it, still need help with this
