Too many crashes...

[bhoff1975]

Whatever happened last patch is killing me. Its a high chance that every time I zone, game will crash. Its a high chance that every time I alt-tab out, the game crashes.

I'm beyond furious as I type this. I want to play the game but this is literally causing me to walk away.

Move the contents of your logs folder to a back up folder.

Move texture.txt from your main eq folder to a back up folder.

Try moving your eqclient.ini to a back up folder.

If it happens for one particular character try moving the UI_[charactername]_[server].ini file to a back up folder.

Ya usually when updating you only want to take the files.. not the subfolders cause if you did any changes it will usually be reverted if the UI folder is replaced and then who knows what kind of dependencies are pissed.

If you are getting Red Text in your Chat Window when you log in. You should get a new UI or fix the one you are using.

Soo perhaps a fresh install and only unzip the latest patch? I've been boxing on green and blue, green rarely crashes but blue crashes everytime I zone

Yes exactly that is the easiest way to know but ya you lose all your preferences if it is the issue but ya make a backup then you trial and error the issue by just adding what you had til you find what the issue is.

Green doesn't allow any other folders but default and velious in the UI subfolder so it sounds like ya its a UI issue but that could also be a settings issue in your individual .ini files too but if you use a different UI on blue then could be that UI or its .ini files for those individual characters.

I think the issue is mainly with this dependency so I made a velious folder with zero dependencies and I don't really crash anymore.

Also: Kind of Important.

in EQClient.Ini the UISkin=velious setting is hard locked on blue and green. You can change this on your characters individual UI, and it will change it in the EQClient.ini after you change it in your Characters. But it will revert on exit of the game, then you will load the UISkin=velious on load of the server from your EQClient.ini, then load the UISkin=custom skin from your UI_character.ini .

So ya, knowing this, if you have discrepancies, you will have issue.

What do you mean that you made a velious folder with zero dependencies? Can you explain that a bit more?

As far as UI, I am using the duxaui, but I changed to the default and it didn't seem to change anything.

Are you saying that we should ensure that the UISkin in both the eq.ini should match the particular character UISkin?

That said, Keep a fresh install handy just to take files from and trial and error with that template.

I'm with you.

At first I thought it was something to do with my VPN. Turned that off, still crashing.

Then I thought it might be my HDD. Move to my SSD, still crashing.

I'm cancelling my subscription [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
