I have no idea what to do about this. *Eunomia bat signal*

in the past 4.5 years i have seen that maybe 4 times. Today alone I have had it happen about 2 dozen give or take. No idea why the increase now

I have the exact same problem on my laptop--can get to character select screen, but then instantly crashes when I try to login.

On my desktop there isn't any problem. Both systems are running Windows 7.

I have the exact same problem on my laptop--can get to character select screen, but then instantly crashes when I try to login.

On my desktop there isn't any problem. Both systems are running Windows 7.

What are the differences between the two systems? I'd start there

For example if the one that crashes has more processors ... try setting affinity to 1 and see if that helps

[bktroost]

So I redid the patch 5 times and on the 5th time it worked.

[Eunomia]

Ha, sorry didn't see this. Glad you are fixed.

[bktroost]

Well I thought it was fixed. Seems it has come back. Not sure exactly what's going on.

Edit: Same thing happened, I tried it without patching multiple times and eventually it let me in... I don't know, maybe its a firewall issue?

[blondeattk]

getting regular crashes since last patch.

was pretty stable before this.

eq is not happy! too much fiddling about under the bonnet!

[Erydan Ouragan]

I have the same issue. Never crashed, not even once before the last patch.

It's pretty frustrating.

[Daerkan]

I'm having the exact same issue right now , no way to get into the game. Stuck on this error.

[bktroost]

bump

[Woodheart]

I've not had any trouble getting into the game but, 9 of 10 times when I camp out I will receive this crash instead of the char select screen. So basically to switch chars I have to close and re-open the game.

[Adanos]

I have found that if I reset my computer EVERY time I log into eq, I can get in. That's annoying. Don't know what they did to break this with Win7...

[Pringles]

My client now crashes regularly. I was rock solid until this patch.

[bloodmuffin]

Also have been experiencing crashes very frequently today. Was completely stable when I last played which was a few days ago. I had to repatch my game client in order to get past the character select screen this morning as it crashed everytime while loading in. As soon as I logged out it started all over again.

I'm not sure what it is, thought it had something to do with my Ui so I reset it but no luck. Set affinity back to 1 core and disabled loading screen ect. Those never gave me and issue but I'm really trying everything at this point. Going to reinstall titanium/patch and try again later.

Edit: Going to chalk this one up to server side errors. Changed nothing since last night as I was too lazy to reinstall, yet I'm able to log in now everytime without a crash. Last night I would crash 100% of the time unless I reinstalled the patch before every attempt to log in.

[sulpher01]

Get this with about 50% of all logins after the latest patch... very annoying as it leaves your char in world for a long time after each attempt.

Edit: 50% or more.. on a roll at the moment.. 6 logins in a row all failed

[bktroost]

Bump. This happens to me EVERY time I try to log in. I have to attempt 5-10 times before I can actually log in which takes a long time since it actually does log me in apparently. Says I have a character logged in when i try to get to the character screen after this happens.

[Gnecron]

Any updates from our server admins on this one? I'm having this issue as well post-patch.

[Sivaeb]

I'm continually having this problem as well since the last update. It happens mainly on my Windows 8.1 machine. I lock up when trying to enter world, 80% of the time. Also, about 30% of the time, when i make it to character select, it will still say i need to update the spell files (which i have done no less than 20 times)

I've tried a fresh install. I've tried copying the entire game client from my laptop (Windows 7, no problems) and am still getting this error

[JadeAuto]

This is also hitting me. It seems random too.

**Edit: Now it seems every single character I have is crashing on load. I reinstalled the latest spellfile set to see if that helps, no go.

What's going on? Is there anything I can provide to help debug these crashes?

[bktroost]

Does any GM or Dev have any idea about this?

[JadeAuto]

Ok, so I just did a 100% fresh clean install. Didn't add or modify anything.

I still crash. Every single time I try to load up.

What gives? What can I provide to help determine what the problem is?

[JadeAuto]

I'm getting frustrated. calling it a night. I've spent 5 hours today trying to get EQ to work normally.

Devs, any idea wtf is going on? This is frustrating, as I just want to have fun in EQ. :/

[mattkwi]

Also happening to me. Always stable prior to last patch.

[blondeattk]

too much tinkering not enuff experts....

[Ambrotos]

Are you having google chrome open? I've been having tons of issues with the cashe jacking up, and freezing all my processes. This is the only time eq crashes for me.

[Wonton]

I am experiencing the same error as the OP.. pretty frequently. I do not know what is causing it. Sometimes I boot up EQ and I don't get the error. Other times I'll get it 5-6 times in a row before finally working. Major PITA cuz you have to wait for your character to desync.

My client now crashes regularly. I was rock solid until this patch.

+1 (Sunday 7/6 Noon EST)

Crashed every time i pick a char and enter world

[Kennie]

I get that popup every time I camp a character. I can never camp and go back to character creation. I crash every time and I get this popup. Then I have to reload everything just to make a quick character switch. It's really annoying.

[Elderan]

I was getting this problem ever since the patch. I could fix it for a short time but it would pop back up.

Finally I downloaded DUXA UI and replaced my default and deleted my existing custom UIs and this finally fixed it. Also Vert UI seems to work as well.

[Wonton]

Thanks Ambrotos. I've seen a lot less crashing when all my web browsers are closed... however it still happens occasionally.. I don't know what is causing it. I think i need to make a friend now because my ground transfers are compromised! <3

[Maldivas1972]

I am have crash issue as well. It happens to me only when switching toons, 9 out of 10 times i crash like OP with same msg at toon select page. Still puttin up with it , honestly it is annoying but not game ending for me .

Thx again for the server to play on for the last several years it has been a blast :)
