Consistent Green crashes

[Kenshi235]

Coincidently, I just did a 3rd reinstallation of Titanium and am still having issues.
This is a Titanium installation from a different source the first, in case I have corrupt files in the original.

It's worth noting I have no trouble running around with my lvl 1 in Gfay and zoning to crushbone and back.
However, West Karanas and North Karanas give me like a 20% chance of succesful zone / login. Where-as Gfay / crushbone is near perfect.

That's normally a symptom of file corruption but a reinstall should have fixed it. Are you sure the folder is being deleted from your C drive when you uninstall the program? Sometimes things get wonky and it doesn't actually ever delete, it just comes off of the Add/Remove Programs window list.

Original folder is not being deleted completely. I have .ini files and typical folders in the old file location. Most files are gone, but not all.

Should I be uninstalling with add/remove programs? or titanium? Or simply move/delete the entire original folder? I'm guessing the last option is what I should do. Thanks.

Also, there is a debugger.txt file under Logs folder.
Here are the latest text messages right before I crashed (after I successfully logged into a character for a few minutes):
Upon further reading, this isn't that helpful. But I think is better than nothing.

I upgraded from Windows 7 to 10 (long overdue) and still have the same issues.
I'm just amazed at this point.

TL;DR Try a lower resolution.

I was able to correct my issues, the aforementioned soft LD, where you still are connected to the server, but you can't interact with anything.

• I did another fresh install.
• Set eqgame.exe to Windows XP S3 compatibility.
• Changed Launch Titanium.bat to:
start /affinity 1 eqgame patchme

While these seemed to help with zoning, I still had issues crashing and random being unable to cast.

The ONLY solution for me was to lower my resolution to 1680 x 1050 (Windowed). My native windowed resolution was 2560 x 1080 — LG 29 inch Ultra Wide.

Thus, I have played the past two days without issue.

Are you using WinEQ2? If not, I bet there's a good chance it fixes all of your problems.

Yes pretty much. I was crashing in guk every 5mins until I installed wineq2. Whats weird is that I played on blue for years with no problem, so something has changed on green, but wineq2 has fixed it, so whatever.

[Kenshi235]

No I am not using WinEQ. I can try that next.

As an update: changing .bat file to "start /affinity 1 eqgame patch", setting eqgame.exe to Windows XP S3 compatibility, and changing resolution, has resolved my "soft LD" issue, which is great. I very much appreciate your response.

However, I still crash on zoning. I don't actually get a crash message, I just get stuck in the loading screen forever. The EQ client window never goes to "unresponsive". Sometimes I get in after 15 mins, but I usually don't wait that long.

Note: these are zones I have succesfully zoned into, in the past.

Highly considering going back to blue or playing a different that actually works. Will try WinEQ 2 though.

Ensure that the “Run as Administrator” box is ticked on the eqgame.exe

Move your EQ folder to your User or Public folder.

Those should fix the zoning issues.
