    Qulun Dome DAT location

    So I zoned into the Qulun Dome on my laptop and crashed. Crashed when I tried to log there two more times, which leads me to believe that the DAT file for the zone has become corrupt. Does anyone know the DAT file location, or is there any way to find which is the terrain DAT file for the zone so I can get a good copy of it? I guess there is a possibility that the dialog or monster tables could be corrupted instead, but Pebble loads those without issue. (And I could always get those DAT numbers from Pebbles if the terrain DAT doesn't work.)

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Did you try checking your files?

    Not sure on the terrain DAT, but you might try the mob list DAT since it could be the issue as well (it's loaded upon entry much like the terrain).

    ROM/26/85.dat

    Yes, and the only think it did was reset my icons to the useless default ones.

    Pebbles can read it, so I figure it probably isn't that. I will try it an hope.

    A DAT is just a file. The source shouldn't matter as long as it is a correct version of the file.
