Crashing when camping (character select)
 

Does anyone else have this issue?

I submitted a screen shot.

Yes.... it happens 75% of the time.

Set compatibility mode on eqgame.exe to XP SP2 (or 3).

I've just grown to live with it, but this good if it works for me. It really only makes a difference when I ground drop stuff to pass to an alt...which, I'm horribly addicted to. I love the rush of dropping an item on the ground and hoping it will pass over...such a weird addiction, but I'm prob not the only one.

You're definitely not ;) Although personally I think it's more a product of my laziness in not wanting to find someone to ask for transfer help, and less about the "rush" of successfully ground transferring.

After 10 years of p99 I get my EQ "RUSH" anyway I can find it...

This happens to me occasionally, even though I have the compatibility set as above. I think it now happens less frequently when I use WinEQ, but I am not sure. It usually only happens to me at character login, and I always thought it's a consequence of playing a 20 year old game emulation.
