EQ exe problem

T

Taiku

Dalayan Beginner
Right when i choose the server and i click enter. It loads then a window pops up saying that EQ.exe has encountered a problem and must shut down. Any help here?
 
Re: Game exe problem

i get that atleast once when i log in. i just ignor it, and keep trying. *shrug* works for me. but not everything that works for me works for everyone else :/

i'd actually be interested *if there IS anyway* in how to get rid of it.

I haven't heard of any other fix. It's a random bug that everyone encounters. Just keep running the patcher, repatching all.
 
Re: Game exe problem

I read something on the Wiki about how this and the logon errors (the one that says you may have to re-run the patcher..) are due to possible firewall or router problems and you just need to reconfiure them to be more friendly..
Let me see if I can find that articile
 
Re: Game exe problem

Copied from the WIKI:

My client crashes with the following errors when I try to log in

Get error 1001: Could not connect to the EverQuest server! Please try again shortly.
or/and
eqgame.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.

SoD is very reliant on UDP which is a internet protocol with no error checking. If you have any problems with your network that could be enough to keep you from connecting.

Some potential solutions could be:

If you're on a lan with other computers, turn them off or tell them to stop downloading.
If you're using a hub, change it to a switch instead.
Your router is a firewall that doesn't keep state on UDP packets, map in UDP ports 5997 and 9000 into your internal IP.

However... my router isnt specifically listed as a firewall (even though most routers do in some ways act as a firewall) and I still have this problem almost every time I log in.
 
Re: Game exe problem

This error I find most common when server is having issues (crash or reboot) and/or login server is being hammered. Ignore the text of the error, and try connecting again...and again...and again...and well, you get it now.
 
Re: Game exe problem

Yup thats what I do. :) Sometimes takes 10 tries but I always get in eventually. I just get frustrated when I crash while zoning and then it takes another 10 tries to get back in again. :)
 
Re: Game exe problem
