Randomly freezing while zoning
I get it on p1999 and the Irreverent. My EQ just freezes up while I zone and I have to close it and relog every time.
I'd say this occurs 15-20% of the time when I zone. It doesn't matter where I am zoning to. I play on an acer laptop, titanium client. Intel Atom 1.6 gHz (2 CPUs) 1 gig of RAM Intel GMA graphics 256 MB |
Same thing happens to me occasionally. Although I haven't entirely fixed it, I have had several sessions where I did not get any crashes.
Are you running windows 7 or vista? It might help if you run compatibility mode at a different setting or messing with administrator mode. Also have you tried other resolutions or EQwindows. Hope this helps |
Yeah, even though I don't think it is possible to 100% prevent crashing on zoning, one major cause is multi-core CPUs on Titanium clients. The client just wasn't made to support multiple CPUs and you may need to apply 1 or more fix to resolve it. The FAQ in my sig has some suggestions. For Titanium, I always use the shortcut edit that forces Titanium to a specific core.

This does happen with my SoD client too and is very annoying.
Also, it does occur on both of my systems: Windows 7 32 bit / Intel Mobile Processor (Notebook) Windows 7 64 bit / Intel Quad Core Cant run XP Compatibility Mode, because that makes the client crash at start (windows error). Theres some strange line in the world server window: Code:
"Telling client to continue session. Unable to get group id, char not found!" |
I was browsing the P99 forums and found people having the same problem. And a possible solution: Deactivating "Texture Caching" in OptionsEditor.exe.
Well, I can only say that I havent got any zone crash since I made that change. Good Luck! |
Texture caching made no diffeence for me, same problem
|
It doesnt eliminate the problem, but for me, it happens only very rarely now.
