Okay so 911sky is VERY confusing for alot of us but he is doing good work and i thank him for it and his attempt to help me in DM. This post is going to try and clarify a few points of whats been posted before this so no one else is confused anymore.
These newer versions of RestedXP we are using here do not use the same process as they used to when installing the guides and getting access to them. Example. You used to copy and paste the guides into the "Guides" folder of RestedXP and they would display in the RestedXP addon like normal. That is not the case with the new files. Example. Im playing 20th Aniversery WOW right now. So in order to play it, when i download the "RXP" file from the link that includes every version, i must extract the files. That gives me RXP Leveling Era, Leveling Classic, and Leveling Retail (all which are still RAR files and will need to be extracted). Since i am using Leveling Era (because i am in aniversery) i must extract that file again. That gives me the file named "RXP Leveling". You must understand that this file is an ADDON all by itself. You do not copy and paste it into the guides folder in RestedXP. You copy it into the Addons folder in your interface. Thats the new way it works. From there you just /reload in game and you should see all the new guides in place. Its that simple.
If youre still having issues, follow this (which was created by 911sky and abridged a bit by me to make it more clear) which is the correct way to trouble should and hopefully your game should work.
"Delete the addon
Delete the saved variables (to clarify, not the Saved Variables folders, just the RXP files in them, there should be two (or maybe more depending on your characters) folders named this with these files in them. One under account, one under specific characters. There are two files in each folder to delete. ~Trax)
Run the game
Download the addon and extract to the addons folder.
Download the guides
Extract the guides (Remember it should be the folder named "RXP Leveling" that gets moved to the addons folder ~Trax) to the addons folder with 7zip
/reload
"
Now to Address 911sky. Dude you really need to work on your Customer Service skills and be less of a prick. I've read over so many posts between this website and ********* and you get so pissed at people because they dont understand your instructions but you dont realize YOU are the issue in alot of this. You are understanding these topics you talk about as if you are the developer, which is amazing and im glad you do. Youre able to help so many people because of how well you understand these systems. You need to understand that while you understand the system like a Developer, 99% of the rest of us are basically Endusers with little to no understanding of whats happening. So while you think your instructions are clear, because they can be short and consise for you specifically, in reality you phrase things in a manner which no one else will understand because youre on a different level than them. I implore you to try something. Go talk to chatgpt, and ask it to explain something that is very complex and confusing to you, as if you already understand the subject. It will sound like gibberish to you. Then ask it to explain it to you as if youre an idiot. Watch how it breaks down things to a more understandable level. Thats what users need from you at times. Im a computer tech at a casino, so i understand how annoying it is when something seems simple to you, but youre talking to an end user and they are completely lost and cant explain things in the correct terms you want, but that said, if youre losing ME with how you explain stuff, im like a halfway point between you and the normal end user, so if im confused, they are confused x100.
Also dude you need to learn to admit your faults. Like seriously its okay to have said something wrong but when someone brings it up to you with an exact quote and you try to say you never said it, you look bad.
Example. I said to you "To also clarify, ive followed this to a T, trying it over and over again with clean installs of curseforge etc.
"Go to the savedvariables folder and delete the rxp files
Delete the addon
Run the game
Install the addon via curseforge
/reload
Download the guides
Extract the guides to the RXP folder with 7zip and overwrite
/reload
""
That was a direct quote from you i used from page 979 if anyone else is curious to check. I copy and pasted that into our messages. Your response was " as I keep on repeating
If the curseforge updater is running. It will just restore the files that you deleted
I never once said extract to the RXP folder
I clearly stated to extract the guides to the Addons folder
But people extract them into the guys folder when I told them not to, and I wonder why it doesn’t work
I never said to do that so why are people doing it?"
You do great work for the community, and im thankful for your help, but PLEASE take this to heart and learn a bit from it.
They do not say if they used an updater
