"cannot write to hunkusage.dat" ?

Postby _InFeRnO_ » Thu Aug 18, 2011 18:06

Hello all!
I had vista lag problem and i solve it with vista anti lag but sometimes it become inacvite automatically and i must click to activate many times, why?

but the big problem is for my brother, i create a new account for him (i have vista) and i made the link to wolfenstein and i downloaded ps quick connector but if i try to connect to one server, et write to me "cannot write to hunkusage.dat" after loading the map.
i already tried to delete this file (as i find in google) but i can't remove it, some ideas?

thanks!

found this via google

2.) Du musst schreibrechte darauf haben sowie die nötigen Rechte auf alle Verzeichnisse die sich auf dem Pfad dorthin befinden (für Win2k/XP/Linux)

Was ist die hunkusage.dat überhaupt???
In dieser Datei wird für jede Map der benötigte Speicherplatz gespeichert.
Die 6 original Maps sind schon eingetragen. Wenn du eine Costum-Map saugst und die zum ersten mal lädst wird der Speicherbedarf in dieser Datei gespeichert. Das ist auch der Grund warum du beim ersten laden keinen Ladebalken siehst weil ET noch nicht weis wieviel Speicher es braucht. Deshalb musst du auf die Datei schreibrechte haben.

PS: sollte die Datei wirklich corrupt sein kannst du sie einfach löschen, sie wird dann neu angelegt.

Short Translation:
1. Be sure, the File hunkusage.dat isn't write protected
2. U got to have the writing rights and also all admin rights to your folders there (at Win2k/XP/Linux)

What does the hunkusage.dat do at all?
It saves the needed RAM for every map. the original maps should be there saved as default. if u download custom maps and load/play it for the first time, the needed RAM will get saved in that file. that's also why the file needs to be writeable (no write protection).


If nothing helps, just delete the file hunkusage.dat and after open ur ET and join a server, the file should get rebuilded itself (probably do a backup somewhere of it tho).
