Great Name No Game Posted July 3, 2016 Report Share Posted July 3, 2016 As I said in my other thread, I was going to create a new one for my 6.x issues. Am running Win 10 and when I try to start my 6.x client, I get shut back to the desktop with an error message. "The application encountered an unexpected error." Perhaps my attached photo can be of some use. Any thoughts? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great Name No Game Posted July 3, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 3, 2016 It will not even go to the log in screen. Previously, I was getting the version mismatch error, but not sure why it swapped to this error instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aokromes Posted July 3, 2016 Report Share Posted July 3, 2016 Maybe you have broken client. I sugest you to run battle net launcher and then repair 6.x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shauren Posted July 4, 2016 Report Share Posted July 4, 2016 I don't see tc_bundle.txt there which should have been created by connection_patcher Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Great Name No Game Posted July 4, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 4, 2016 OK I will update connection_patcher and test. If that fails, I will connect to retail and see if I can run that again. More to come...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Great Name No Game Posted July 4, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 4, 2016 So, update to this situation. I ran Launcher after setting realm back to US and logged into my player. Loaded fine, everything checked out. Now, set the realm back to the TC server, and ran the connection patcher....error "UNable to find pattern". Ugh..... now what? @Shauren after running patcher, the tc_bundle.txt still did not appear. Could that contain the missing "pattern"? See photo to come. Thanks for the advice! - JH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great Name No Game Posted July 4, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 4, 2016 (edited) Just in case it is difficult to read. The error states: "Creating patched binary... Win32 client... patching portal EX unable to find pattern An error occurred. Press ENTER to continue..." This error comes up for both the 32 and 64 versions of WoW, with the error reflecting the version. Thanks for your continued thoughts and support.

Aokromes Posted July 4, 2016 Report Share Posted July 4, 2016 Be sure you are using the current live build of world of warcraft. Also if you need to create and upload screenshots go to https://getsharex.com/ it's better than taking a unreadable photo of a monitor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Great Name No Game Posted July 4, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 4, 2016 @Aokromes. For my benefit, what's the current live build version of wow? I'll check that out soonest. Thanks also for the screen capture tip. Anything to make it easier for all involved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great Name No Game Posted July 4, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 4, 2016 @Aokromes @Shauren Current retail version loaded is 6.2.4.21742. Same error persists. Cannot find pattern while trying to patch. Recommendations? I am looking to make sure my patcher is current. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aokromes Posted July 4, 2016 Report Share Posted July 4, 2016 You are connected to internet on the computer you are trying to patch? connection patcher needs internet to work. (and wow 6 to launch) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Great Name No Game Posted July 4, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 4, 2016 I am. The computer I am using to reply to this forum is the one that I use for all my gaming needs. I acquired a copy of the tc_bundle.txt file and stuck it in the TC WoW 6.x directory. On launch, I got.... So something still isnt quite right. I am working with my server admin to see if we cant get the patcher fixed. This is where we currently stand. I have a feeling that if we get the patcher issue resolved, everything else will fall into place. Maybe I'm wrong, I dunno. Any further thoughts/suggestions would be appreciated. Many thanks! - JH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shauren Posted July 5, 2016 Report Share Posted July 5, 2016 If you are getting error like that then you are trying to run a 6.2.4 exe inside a full 6.2.3 installation or something similar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Great Name No Game Posted July 5, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 5, 2016 So what do you recommend I try to fix? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great Name No Game Posted July 5, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 5, 2016 Full reinstall was done prior to attempting troubleshooting. In other words, that was the first thing I did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shauren Posted July 12, 2016 Report Share Posted July 12, 2016 The only other thing that comes to my mind now is that you are trying to use outdated connection_patcher Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Great Name No Game Posted July 12, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 12, 2016 Installed newer version of connection_patcher and got...... Its progress albeit a little bit.

Aokromes Posted July 12, 2016 Report Share Posted July 12, 2016 If you run patcher on a different computer where you install it, compile it on release mode and install visual studio 2013 or 2015 redistributables. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
