Thank you for this. I did notice it being said to someone else but I wasn't sure what it meant. I was worried when I put it in my search and found 17k+ files but thought that since I can't break it (being downloadable content) I went ahead. (I didn't find anything called 'map' or 'map folder' only 'data') so I deleted it all.
WOAH! I got the login screen but nothing happened (seemingly) when I clicked my characters name. I freaked out, closed the window and deleted Amber and the entire Haven and Hearth data file. And the Java data for the game.
Came back here, downloaded the original client and played for a couple minutes. Closed that and downloaded Amber. ALL FIXED no map files
yeah!!!
Turns out I shouldn't have freaked out, just waited for another minute for the game to finish opening. It does take a minute or two the first time.
Thank you for your help
