Default Crash on camp

Is there any file or anything I can do to stop the continual fatal error every time I camp a toon?

Just slam your laptop closed or you can just turn your power bar off that your desktop is plugged into

From a few threads down:

A) Camp Crash Fix

Do you frequently crash when camping, loading into the character select screen, or even zoning? A fix that worked great for me was setting the compatibility settings on eqgame.exe to Windows XP service pack 3. Been crash free ever since.

I found setting EQGAME.EXE to WIN 8 compatability fixed that. I used to crash each and everytime, and it stopped that. (Presuming you are using WIN10.)

Gonna add my data point:

Win7 x64 set to WinXP SP3 compatibility has eliminated the crash for me.

Compatibility mode will help most. Rt-click P99 shortcut -> Properties -> Compatibility -> Compatibility Mode -> Run this program in compatibility mode for: <select your version--I am using XP SP2>
