Default Must restart client to zone

Some days are worse than others but lately every time I zone I receive the "Entering _______" message but I never load into the zone. I must restart the client and log back in in order to zone. It's becoming game-breaking annoying.

Is there a fix for this?

Moving this to tech, maybe someone else has had the problem.

I would try using WinEQ2.0. There is a free version. That's my suggestion.

sounds similar to the issue both Kinamur and I am having.
Even then for me, that character that was zoning will sometimes hang EQ upon clicking 'enter world' for him and require yet another restart.

A number of people are experiencing an acute onset of this issue, so I am beginning to wonder if its not something more than just a multicore or wineq fix.

Having this same exact problem. It's not every single time I zone but probably around 25%. Everytime it happens it will just hang on LOADING... PLEASE WAIT and requires a restart of the client.

Posting things like dbg.txt and system profiles help immensely when trying to diagnose an issue. Its like saying I lost my water in the desert - its futile to go and try to find it.

Maybe you both have the same driver, or motherboard or ram or some such, etc.

Server population is over 600. Zoning crashes have begun for me after a day of being perfect.

Same here. Seems that after 8PM Eastern time I lock up every time I zone and need to restart the client since Monday this week.
