Default Keep getting disconnected

Hey guys,

I keep having an issue where i get disconnected from the server pretty often. I am playing an enchanter now and charming pets has become very risky for me because of the frequent D/C. I was wondering if anyone had any solutions to this or has encountered it before that could help me work through this.

I play on my MacBookPro laptop using the wineskin setup that was introduced on one of the forum threads. I don't think my internet at my house is an issue, so was just wondering if anyone had any ideas!

Thanks !

Let me make my crapple comment just to get it out of the way.

Ok,

So generally what I've found with EQ is that most problems can be fixed through the eqclient.ini or directing your client to use only one core (in Windows I run EQ using a batch file that assigns a core).

It's been a long time since I have messed with my config but from what I remember these are the settings that helped me.

eqclient.ini :

Sound=FALSE
TextureQuality=1
VertexShaders=FALSE
20PixelShaders=FALSE
14PixelShaders=FALSE
1xPixelShaders=TRUE
MultiPassLighting=FALSE
UseLitBatches=FALSE
ShowDynamicLights=FALSE

IIRC setting all but 1xPixelShaders to FALSE was a big one.

As for using one core I don't know how that works given your machine, but google should help you out.

I can mention firewall/router stuff but you've probably already looked at that.

Lots of people have been having connection issues today. Crashing to login before reaching character select, crashing on zoning, etc etc. I guess it's been pretty bad

I have been DC'ing like a boss lately, normally when I'm swapping between characters, but lately it has been when I am zoning. Something is fubar. I might have DC'd 3x in my first 10months on the server, the last month or two I have DC'd probably 20+ times.

Bump for standing issue.

I now crash about half the time while trying to get to character select, and about half the time when trying to load a zone (whether zoning or loading for the first time). This means about 1 in 4 of my initial loads are successful.

The fact that this also happens while loading my own server and not just p99/r99 leads me to believe that it is a loginserver issue - however, this doesn't explain crashing while zoning.

Will make a bug report soon unless staff feels like addressing it here.

Logging into p99 mostly for research towards my own server project - most time spent in Guk.

Though I have been to two blue raids recently to try to foster relations with my pals in FE.

Will still play red very slightly (repops basically)

I like red dawn and it's nothing personal, but I'm not allying with Nihilum in the least.
