Since yesterday - crashing to desktop occurring again..
 

The random crashing from playing in game is happening again for me. It happens unpredictably, but has crashed 3x in an hour+. I thought I had fixed this problem, as it had not occurred for 2+ months. I'm not sure it's because of last night, but none of my setting have changed (to my knowledge) to make this start happening again.

Sorry to bother,
Thanks again.


cliffs; Client crashes completely, no warning. Can't effectively play, being dc'd during quadkites, not-so-fun.

notes: have FPS turned <30, all extra advanced graphics options are off (shaders etc), Win7 64, le sigh

My daughter had that problem yesterday and when she crashed it caused me long lag spikes (we are on a home network). She was playing on a laptop and had both wired and wireless connections on at the same time. I had her turn off her wireless whenever she is hooked up physically to our network and she hasn't crashed once since.

Dunno if that fixed it, why it would matter or how it worked but the end result was no crashes. Even if it was co-incidence, I'll take that. You may not be double-connected to the network, but if you are, try that. (I had assumed the data packets were trying to take 2 paths to her computer, but I really don't know how that works, but like I say, fixed is fixed even by accident).

Nah wireless is bad for one's health, so we stick to wired connections only.

same for me crashed in the middle of a fight and died :(

Stupid thing is, they (GM's) won't rez for this, cause it's an "issue on our side" and they could never tell if we were manipulating the story to say we died in a certain way. If it's possible to read the zone-parsing or something, and see how we all just stop and die (with full health or mana etc) - that would be cool, but I doubt it.

mehh

next time you crash and before you restart the client, go to your eq directory and find the logs folder, in the log should be details your client wrote to the file that may give a hint as to the problem

I know there are issues with eqemulator working with clients properly when it comes to weather information being sent to the client, as just about every time I have a random crash on either titanium or sod, my logs always state the crash error immediately after being sent weather information (which is also in the logs), check out what you have in your logs and maybe it can shed some light

Just happened to me again.

Started happening after I did a Windows 7 update/IE explorer update so I restored settings before the update and played all day yesterday with no issues. Happened about 10 mins ago, thankfully my dots and pet took care of the rest and I stayed alive.

Next time this happens I'll report the log info.
