This really should have its own sticky. I've started to see some crashing issues but also have a really old install that had EQLite run on it as well as the high-res texture pack and the transparency/visor fix applied. (Made sure to verify the client wasn't consuming over 2GB of memory and that was not the case.)

Just to clarify, the Titanium client physically can't use 2 GB of system memory - what you'd want to look for as to what would indicate a potential crash is more like 1.5 GB. I think the threshold is somewhere around 1.8 GB before it actually throws an exception and crashes.

It's possible that texture caching has something to do with crashing, but we can only guess as to what kind of issues it'd be causing. Perhaps an old texture cache is somehow conflicting with the new textures and causing the client to use too much system memory. If this is the case, you'll want to clear out your cache by doing the following (disclaimer: this may or may not actually solve anything):

1. Disable texture caching via the login screen options menu (make sure to click Finish).
2. Reload the client and fully sign into the game.
3. Camp out of the game and close the client (do not /quit).
4. Enable texture caching via the login screen options menu (make sure to click Finish).
5. Reload the client and fully sign into the game.
6. Camp out of the game and close the client (do not /quit).
7. Repeat steps 1-6 for good measure.

Also, there is some install info on our wiki page now (and a reveal of the TAKP version of EQ Classic HD): http://wiki.project1999.com/EQ_Classic_HD
