Crashing while zoning

[tkleinert]

starting yesterday, i can no longer log into game. i either time out constantly, or i get a server screen with no servers, or if i do get past the server screen i get no toons. if i am lucky enough to get toons, it wont log in because it times out!!! others have been complaining about the same problem, and it seems to be falling on deaf ears [You must be logged in to view images.

the only thing i can say for certain is that before the v4patch, 0 problems
after the v4patch, nothing but problems!!

So I got into a chain crash today trying to log into my dev server. Every single time I entered from char select, I crashed after the loading bar finished. I ended up deleting my UI_Rogean_<servername>.ini file and then I was able to get back in.

where do you find that file to delete? one of my characters crashed zoning into SolA and I crash everytime I try to load that character, although I can load others on the same account without crashing. posted on the stuck character forum but have yet to hear anything.

My brother and I who play on the same I P address never had problems with zoning for the first few months playing only until a week ago and now we crash pretty much every time we zone. Seems to crash less during the early morning hours though. We can't figure out a fix, and I am wondering, and maybe someone could confirm, if re-downloading the titanium client would possibly fix this mess.

Lower your frame rates to ~60 if you want to eliminate lag in sola/permafrost etc, lower them to ~40-45 to severely cut down, if not eliminate, random crashing

I think the problem is the game's intollerance for less than desirable connections. I have been having some higher latency lately with some minor packet loss. I have been zone crashing over 50% of the time since I have had these problems.

I have also been having problems logging in. I get a lot of time-outs and when I do log in, I get a server selection screen but no servers. Logging in can be an (poor) adventure itself. To me, it seems that if someone has a connection that is not almost perfect, you will suffer these problems.

I am not a computer whiz, so sorry if my observations and conclusions are way off or sound stupid, but it seems that while zoning some packets get lost, or latency causes problems that cause you to freeze. I have just let it sit and have zoned in after about 8 minutes of watching 'Zoning into east commons...'.

My friend wants to play on p1999, but he has a satellite connection. While he can log into eqlive just fine, he can not log into p1999. He gets 'logging into server' but it never goes past that. It times out every time.

Hope this helps.

I haven't had a lot of problems but I did get to the blank server screen 2 times yesterday when I realized I was torrenting on my main computer instead of my torrent server.

Once I paused the download I was able to get in. For some reason this strikes me as odd becuase I have about a million times better bandwidth on T1 than I did on dialup playing live 11 years ago.. No reason why I should not be able to squeeze enough packets out for a game that does not need that much information.

Also I crash every time I die and zone back to my body..same zone.

I hope someone finds a solution... its getting pretty stupid. I crash once every 3rd or 4th zone. Its not a system or speed issue. I am not getting disk activity, its getting really bad.

Still crashing alot for me while zoneing also time out while trying to log in
