Crashing during kite

nalkin · #1 10-29-2010, 04:28 PM

This happens to me quite a few times on my bard. I have maybe 15+ mobs kiting in SK and in the middle of the kite my client will just crash. I tried turning down settings but it doesn't seem to help. Sometimes it happens and sometimes it doesn't... any suggestions?

Try fighting blue con mobs one at a time face to face [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Prob need more RAM imo

I have 4gbs, my computer is pretty fast and should be plenty fast for running eq classic.

It happens to me with my Druid, only kiting one mob. Probably a bug, but I have yet to find a way to reproduce it...

Aye i get the same intermittently kiting with my Druid - there was a post a while back on the issue and zoning before starting a kiting session was recommended by someone - but i still get the issue on and off when doing that.

Also used to have this problem when I would kite with my druid. Rather frustrating as it results in death far too often.

Next time it happens please check your debug file and let me know if we are getting the same issue, I suspect we may be.

No fix for this yet eh? Just crashed while swarm kiting.

7 deaths in the my last 11 pulls due to this. Only happens when I have a big swarm, so I have to recreate the situation over and over to see if I've fixed it or not.

I see these lines in every log file.

D3DXCreateTextureFromFileEx() failed to create texture blueglobesp501.dds for particle system.
D3DXCreateTextureFromFileEx() failed to create texture Jellyfisha.dds for particle system.
D3DXCreateTextureFromFileEx() failed to create texture fishd.dds for particle system.

Also, have 3 logs to pick through if anyone is interested.
