As we all know, HB3 has issues. Every time theres an update, something doesn't work!
Heres what I find works most of the time, at least for me.
First of all, I have my HB serials in a text on my desktop, when I need it, I copy & paste when HB starts on a new extraction. I say that because I dont "install" HB, I use the zip from the updates page.
Ill make another folder on my desktop with the corresponding build and extract it to said folder. Right click HB.exe and "Run as Administrator" and ofcourse the serial will be empty, and thats why I copy & paste from my text file thats also on my desktop. Then I give it another go and it seems to work just fine!
Just so you know, when theres and HB update and you click yes to update after starting HB, 90% of the time, theres an issue and HB wont do its thing, like level me or make my gold. And this is why I make a new folder and extract the ZIP file instead. Again, these are my issues and this works for me, you may be different! This also worked for me for Exceptions thrown.
I just delete the old HB folders... EXCEPT the "one" that I save all my profiles in. Keep them all in one folder categorized, ie, mining, herb, ect. Which leads me to saying THANK YOU for those that make profiles, Im sure I've used yours!
Anyway, I was lvl 104 in Highmountain when this update came and my toon just kept jumping off Thunder Totem and dying, or HB would stop and say "Nothing more to do". But now its leveling nicely after doing yet again, what I explained above. And I hope this helps some peeps. I dont post much but been around for a few.
Thanks to all mods , profile gurus and core devs for your hard work.
