Title: SIGNIFICANT crash issues since patching today
Post by: NObama on November 05, 2009, 07:10:35 PM
Greetings all. 

It might be because I'm saturating my network with other things right now....but...

Since I DLed the latest patch and the current version of EUO, my Ant Quest script is crashing.  A lot.  Like 6 times in the last 20 minutes.

Anyone else seeing problems with pathfinding scripts and the new patch(es)?

 :)

I have been also.  Script i had before hand that try to pathfind. While pathfind is the only time they crash.  Some are my own works and I have put more pauses in before pathfinding again and this has helped it alot but pathfinding since th elatest patch seem to be the problem.  The program places another uo window and shows the error.  If you select ok then everything closes out.  This is happening on Windows XP Pro and Vista 32 bit.  I have not tried under other versions of the OS.

If you get into the habit of using the client launching of EUO, then you won't patch unless you absolutely have to.

I never said i patched.  Understand I never patch until atleast a week later unless I cant play without the patch.  I said that since the patch I have been crashing.

Yeah - I should have been more specific:  I was crashing BEFORE I patched, which prompted me to check for a new version.  AFTER I confirmed that EUO was working for the new version, I decided to patch to see if that solved the problem.  Didn't.

anyone noticed that nice new popup diagnostics window that pops up now when you do crash UO.. instructing you to cut and paste it and send to uo along with detail of what doing that caused the crash.

I should screen snap it...

ps just cuase im paraniod doesnt mean thier not watching me.

I'm convinced that following the cut/paste instructions will highlight that I crashed while using EUO.  Convinced.

to Prevent patching with UOA I copy my client, and rename it to the current patch. lets say 6.0.2.2.  then inside UOA settings I have it launch 6.0.2.2, it will patch, but it will load the old client, I have saved.

Well was tempted to cut and paste and for what doing.. put attempting to add Spirit speak to my fully automated corse draining and looting system for Halloween 2009 event. The Script greatly reduces time and wrist injury needed to complete the quest.

Same!  It seems to be happening even more today. 

90% of the time I am in Ter Mur and I am Mining, so I think it also has something to do with the Tile Set?

Comcast is evil.

OK, I give!  What does un-throttling your Internet Connection mean?  What does it do?  Is it something everyone here should be concerned with?  Don't leave us hanging like that...not fair to tease us!

If you have Cable and in some cases DSL also.  They have filters or settings in your Home unit or outside box that limits your thru-put for your connection.  With alot of the older Cable Boxes in your house you could reflash the box with a modded flash and with other you could change some settings in the box and get unlemited bandwith.  Doing this if the provider was atleast a little obsevant would get you in alot of trouble, because they could see the spike in usage.  Most sytems now are limited and the ISP and they will throttle you down if you do not check it often and check witht them.  Ussually when a Cable provider gets a call and some of the customers are getting low bandwith the first thing they will start trying is throttling other customers down to give the other customers more speed.  Cable can only provide a certain bandwidth and the more customers that are on the same cable are using bandwidth.  So badwidth = MaxBandwidth - total users.  Throttling is a temp fix when a system is already overloaded but is not the right thing to do.  But you have a lot of people that do not know the difference and some even dont care, but others want the most out of there system they can get.  You can do some checks your self like dslreports.com will give you some speed info.  Also calling you ISP and telling them hey I am not getting anywhere near the speeds you promised me.  Can you guys fix this or atleast give me some more speed or do I need to go with another provider. Alot of the time the later will get you results. If I went to fast or got blurry in the middle ask questions please.

What Mass said.  The conversation went something like this.

"Hey - I pay extra for ludicrous speed.  I'm not getting it."
"Really?  Are you sure?"
"I'm sure."
"Have you gone to Comcast's speed testing website?"
"Yeah.  I also went to some legitimate speed testing sites I actually trust to give me an accurate reading.  They say you suck."
"Hmm...looks like they're right.  We do suck.  We shall suck less immediately, since you pay us ungodly amounts of hard-earned cash every month and you had the brains to complain."

I may have paraphrased a bit, there.
