Try those steps: /FIX Use the provided Honorbuddy.Launcher.exe and set the paths accordingly. Launch it. Wait for WoW to Load up. Log into WoW. Select your character, enter the game world. Wait till your character is in Game! Now log into Honorbuddy. I prefer closing the HB the Launcher opened, as it may bug currently. Start a new HB, and log in. 1.3 You started WoW manually, you are even sure you started WoW.exe and think its 32bit(x86), but it still gets detected as 64bit(x64) Code: [16:21:23.223 N] Honorbuddy v2.5.7857.658 started.

There are 64bit WoW processes running and Honorbuddy only works with 32bit version. Please use the Launcher in Honorbuddy folder to launch the game and Honorbuddy. [16:21:28.956 N] ------------------------------- FIX The Log tells you what to do. Use the Honorbuddy.Launcher.exe - set the paths according, and launch it./FIX 2. HB does not Login even though everything else is fine! There are some scenarios where HB will not Login correctly 2.1 You are from Germany and are not using 'Honorbuddy Deutsche Version' Code: You are not authorized to connect to this server! FIX download the Honorbuddy Deutsche Version: http://www.thebuddyforum.com/releases/131699-honorbuddy-v2-5-7857-658-a.html and use it. (due to legal reasons the 'normal' Honorbuddy is forbidden in Germany)/FIX 2.2 Your Honorbuddy says, and it seems as if it would not validate the info, but just say "NO" Code: Auth failed FIX your Windows-HOSTS file is probably corrupt, and has some entries for "auth.buddyauth.com" or equivalent. Reset your hosts file. This link may help, it was posted by the Moderator CodenameG some time ago: Clear Your Hosts File to Help Prevent Web Page Redirection - Spyware and Adware/FIX 3. Copypasta for other threads.. yep, exactly 3.1 Launch WoW @ 32bit for Honorbuddy .660 to attach! step zero don't question why HB wont detect your "self openend" wow correctly. don't get mad at the launcher exiting "emegencily" (did i just invent that word?) It's just a [Test Release] step one open the Honorbuddy.Launcher.exe set paths to WoW.exe and Honorbuddy.exe in the according fields click launch, wow and HB shall open now. step two the HB opened by the launcher sometimes bugs. close it. log into your wow account with the WoW opened by the launcher. stand in the world. if the launcher stopped working during this time thats fine. close him. if the launcher opened more than one wow window... close the ones too much. step three open up Honorbuddy.exe - not the launcher. log in ?? profit
