We are also experencing the same thing where eqgame.exe crashes. We have both the patched and the titanium client. The thing that I noticed is there is a server out there which shows allot of people like in the millions before it crashes. Maybe it has something todo with that causing the problem during login. Just a hint dont' really know, but if you try enough times we evetually get you into the server. Lets say 10 tries or more then we eventually get in. Today it did on my 30th try.

Looked in Application log and found this.

Faulting application eqgame.exe, version 0.0.0.0, faulting module , version 0.0.0.0, fault address 0x00000000.

Are you getting the same error?

Happens to me also, I also am thinking that it's because of those servers that show up with 1 million+ users.

This is happening to everyone I know that has 7.0 clients. Anyone have a fix or explanation for this? This wasn't happening until very recently. Up until this week I believe there were no issues logging into public servers with the 7.0 client.

I have trouble logging in with the 6.2 client as well, just not as often.

Any devs out there able to comment?

I think we figured out this problem.

It seems the login is a bit sensitive to clock frequencies. All the systems that I know that had trouble logging in are now able to log in once they reduced their clock speeds some.

So, if you are over clocking any reduce your speeds some and it might get you going.

good luck,

I get that same error - usually when I start up a second client..
What I do is type in soandso for account name / pass, then tab down to quick connect, hit enter (to log in) then quicky alt tab to another process (usually my other eqgame client)

Tends to work 50% of the time - for a few days worked everytime.

Might help ya, might not, some people this cures it 100%, other people it does nothing.

th3 guy 0n the state of the emu thread said its a problem with the server they are tryiong to fix in time maybe soon maybe not.

-i hope soon (scott)

well guess ill be waiting a while :(

meverah · #12 05-17-2006, 02:30 AM

quik question, since the problem im having is because my little bro patched on may 15th, whats the usual time length on emu working with this patch version? or are we switching to just the titanium support?

anyone else notice that their server says locked but you can still login (until eqgame comes up with that message). I want to confirm that everybodys says this to the right of the server name when you login (dont use quickconnect)

was a fluke. it always says "1" now

I don't know if it's just superstition

, but I'm following a procedure that has prevented me from having this error so far since I started doing it.

It's as simple as re-loging in before closing eq after exiting a server. So, you want to stop playing: /camp and exit the server. Then it kicks you to the login screen (or at least it kicks me), so just log in back to the server selection screen, and then hit exit again and close EQ in a friendly way.

Hope it helps someone else
