So I got most of my patches working after 4.0.1 with the folder trick, and like the rest of you, none of mine are working again. I noticed that just about every WoW file had a MPQ.lock with the same name. After removing all my edit folders, I'm down to just three MPQ.lock files. I have no idea what this means, but I thought perhaps some more information might be helpful. The MPQ.lock files remaining are all the wow-update-13###.MPQ files.

Has anyone tried using the original .mpq file way?

[kaly2]

wth are the files .lst? in art.mpq the 1 file is md5.lst or something like that Oo?

To make it work. add it to original patch files, then it works. But then you can't remove it either.

and how exactly am i supposed to do that? 4.0.3 mpqs can't be edited by any way i know. i've tried to google it too, and couldn't find anything either.

Broken for me, too.

Damn, I guess I won't be fapping to nekkid blood elves tonight...

Its just a theory but WoW (or at least Warden) might be using MD5 to check the integrity of files.
