Character Create Crashing

[bisua]

I log into the server, click to create a new character.. then when I set it up the way I like it.. Click NEXT and POW crash.. any idea? (I did the hotfix and everything the startup page says to do[/list]

 

[stralus]

he's not crazy! gabble fuank

I get the same thing and I have downloaded the patcher a couple of times and followed it exactly how it says in B3. In my case, I do have expansions patched LDoN and foward. Just my two cents.



Thanks!

look in your eq folder, and post the contents of the dbg.txt file, that may help troubleshoot the problem.

do you have all your drivers up to date? if you can't answer yes immediately or are unsure at all, you probably don't.

do you have the latest DX release, not sure if this is required, but may help.

do you run any firewall software/hardware and do you have the correct ports open? this seems to affect everyone a little different.

I know you're trying to assist in getting people fixed and I appreciate that, but...two things:

• 1) I can't recall the last time I was able to successfully identify an issue by looking at the debug.txt file. The reality is that we don't have any ability to change or debug the client since we obviously don't have the source.[/list:u]
  • 2) That post was obnoxiously long. I'd recommend that such extensive content be linked rather than posted.[/list:u]

anyone have a fix for this?

 

[Desythe]

You might try what I have done. I have had mixed results, it might work for you.

Repatch to EQlive.

Redownload the wrpatcher, eqw(eq windows), hotfix, and the default UI they have posted in the downloads section.

delete the previous wrpatcher you installed and reinstall the new download.

Install the default UI in you UI folder.

Install the hotfix.

run the wrpatcher and get the wr patch, then run the game.

The default UI has some of the same files from the hotfix, so I would probably do the hotfix after the default ui so you get up to date files.

 

[Djani]

K thank you, friend of mine having all kinds of problems with the crashing, thanks for info =)

 

[krich]

If you follow the Starting Guide, you will be able to log into WR. Desythe offered a pretty good summary of what the Starting Guide says.
