Log in issue

[Nagash]

Hi all,

Bit of background info first: I recently moved house and have a new provider, Orange, which has been providing us internet since yesterday. Everything's a bit slow internet wise but their technical dpt explained me it's because of the tuning period. I can however use(ish) internet.

Seeing how I haven't logged in for what it feels like a millenium due to me organising my moving, I tried to get my fix yesterday and today but it seems like the game crashes as soon as I select a character, it basically freezes on the picture of the character on the background for a couple of minutes then sends me back to the password screen (does this on any EQEmu server). I tried creating a new character, same thing happens as soon as the game tries to check the name availability. This happens on both our computers (lapto on wifi and desktop directly connected to the rooter). Any idea please? Thanks a bunch :)

Regards,

Help pretty please :)

It might be an issue with the ui you are using. Try re downloading the default ui's, and making sure that in your eqclient.ini the ui is set to use the default one.

Thakns. I'll try that although I doubt that would work as I haven't changed the UI at all. Everything was working fine until I move to this new place and have this new provider. I wonder if that has anything to do with the port forwarding on my new router, but then how could I play games like Left 4 Dead 2?

Still no luck :(

It could be your connection to the internet. :\?

Are you trying to create a gnome sk or halfling ranger? Or are you trying to play characters you have already made?

[Nagash]

Nope, just my existing char (iksar necro 40 parked in DL and druid halfling 35 parked in OT). But it happens on every server, not just Project 1999 when it was working perfectly before I moved.

I have exactly the same problem and I am also with Orange internet!!

I used to be with Virgin and had no problem what so ever but since i've been with Orange I get exactly that issue, it hands after character select and just says timed out.

Could any mods / devs say what we'd need to post to work this out please?

It's definitely not an install issue as i've just done a totally fresh install.
