Default Crash on every log out?

Trying to log back in immediately after camping to log off should not give, character active an cannot log in message. Camping should log your character off completely, only if you LD then try to log back in immediately should you get character still active message.[You must be logged in to view images.

I crash 99.99% of every time camp to log off.

It's been a feature of windows to allow apps to run in "compatibility mode" as if they were running on an older operating system (like xp) even though you are running a newer version. Take a look here for windows 10 compatibility options including the one Albanwr mentioned.

Thanks for this! I was having the crashing upon camping too, I will see if this works the next time I log. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

That was half the fix, I ended up having to also run WinEQ2.exe with the compatibility mode you mentioned. Runs better too! Thanks! [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
