HELP
OK, i just rebooted my pc, minimal programs are running firewall has permissions for eqgame.exe,EQemulaunch.exe, wineq.exe in bound and outbound all traffic. I have Eqgame.exe in my C: drive (root directory) set to compatibility mode windows XP Service pack 2 and to automatically run in admin mode. I have no anti virus programs running, no malware programs running. Just windows and its processes as of now. I have a 1 gig Ethernet connection hard-lined into my PC. I use Eqemulauncher.exe in admin mode. I log into the server selection screen no issues at all. I get to the character selection and some times it lets me just fine and i get to play for an hour or so. Then at some point when i zone it locks up and i can hit Alt Ctrl Delete and then sign off is the only way to close the program down with out a reset. BUT after that happens once and i try to go log back in, it freezes up right as i click join world or what ever the name of the button is. Pretty much at the character selection screen and when i go to join the game it just freezes up. No error, nothing. As if it were timing out or waiting for an ack/sync. The time that i am able to log in. It will freeze for maybe 10 seconds and then the loading bar will appear and that's when its looking for the acknowledgement from the server in the handshake between my machine and the server. Then when it doesn't receive that it times out and then a list if errors happen. I keep all drivers up to date, have limited my pc to 1 cpu as well and then 2 and 3 and so forth. No changes in that. Wineq.exe will do the exact same thing as well. So i know its not EQemulauncher.exe. I spent over 10 hours the other day trying to trouble shoot the issue, I found the common ports and the server IP address and can ping the server, which in my opinion you guys need to disable ping on that server IP cause you're just begging for a DDOS attack. Maybe that's partial issue people know that IP and are trying to trouble shoot and are pinging and its overloading that server who knows. At this point im so just disappointed and upset i give up. I use Comcast internet. The other odd thing is my RL buddy i play with doesn't have these issues he gets booted when he logs on another alt that it.
