Zone crashes due to missing maps
 
I keep finding random zones that will crash and the only thing that is suspicious in the zone.exe is it will say it can't find a map. For instance hohonora keeps crashing and it says cannot find hohonora.path. I did an SVN update but it didn't add anything about hohonora

That is probably a normal message since all zones should look to see if they have a .path file or not. Not having them or .map files should not cause any crash related issue, though. I haven't seen any problems with them yet.

hmm well I zoned into hohonora and it crashed so I'm looking at the zone.exe to see if there are any other errors, but the only thing I see has to do with the .path. I wish I could somehow post it here but I guess I can't since it's crashed

Are you on a windows machine with zone flags enabled?

Randymarsh9 07-14-2009 11:41 PM

Well Im on windows and I don't remember disabling flags. I'm not sure how I'd do that

There is a known crash bug on windows servers where an character attempts to zone into a zone they do not have the flag for. This bug does not appear to affect linux servers.

Randymarsh9 07-15-2009 02:11 PM

yeah but zones like trakanon and thurgadinb crash too and they dont have flags

Fair enough. Just was clarifying the earlier suggested cause.
