Why is there nothing to help this......

[makks]

I am still having issues travelling through certain zones.. Boots me and its hell to get back in, like 100+ tries to log in. I get my toon moved and its fine , i can log in again no problem. I had issues logging in while in gfay , firiona vi, BB , and thats mostly it... Is the a reason i might be having this issue.

Ive tried everything under the sun.... can anyone think of ANYTHING

What sort of things have you tried? When you say 100+ tries to log in, whats happening? Are you getting an error?

Need a little more info to troubleshoot. First thing I would say is uninstall and reinstall. If it is happening in certain zones and only those zones, repeatedly, its most likely bad files in those zones.

Sounds like your having routing issues with those zones or their are issues with the zone files.

[makks]

Yeah, I tried clean installs. Cleaned caches, deleted ini files, changed directorys, tried using wineq2, eqemu launcher, changed compatability mode to winxp s2,run as adminstrator
If the zone files are corrupt or something, it wouldnt make sense why every one of my other characters can zone in and out with no problems ,just this one ..
The error with it, is , I can get to the character select screen , choose my toon, and when it is just about to switch over to the game , it disconnects..
its really wierd.

I would maybe try and PM nilbog or one of the dev's and see if all those zones share a same port. Something just reminds me of it being a port issue when clearing the zone files didnt work. Is your EQ folder located outside of your Program Files folder?

[makks]

Will do. TY.

[makks]

And yes i did relocate my eq folder to root drive

One thing that helped me was to go to Options -> Display -> Load Screen and change it to None

Nope still nothing,, cant zone into Gfay, or FV so far and lake of ill omen.
And keep in mind m, this is only on the one toon, and it does the same thing on my other pcs

[Zade]

what is that characters name? did you name it after an npc?

Have you tried from a different internet connection? Like a friends house or your work? I still want to say its a routing issue with ports.

[makks]

Naw its not named after a NPC I know that for sure .
Also like I said, its more than one zone that the toon is affected by, so it woul dhave to have the same name as an npc in each zone =/

[makks]

Thats what i was thinking,.. i wondeer what port these zones use, so i could open them up

Do you have a cell phone you could tether your PC to? That would be easiest way to check.

Hello

do you get this error like a hang up right before you crash ? I notice that sometime when a new player in the zones get close enough to me i will sometimes hitch.

Are you running win eq 2 ?

also did you make sure your main eqgame exe file is allowed to us internet by whatever firewall antivirus you are using. NOT just your desktop icon that you use to get it running.

finally did you run your eqgame.exe under win xp compatability.

Hope this helps
