Augment Bug/Lockup

[devilenside]

Today i tried to aug an item, put both the items in, clicked insert and nothing happend. After a few minutes I just exited out of the bird bath. Tried clicking on the bath again and nothing happend. Couldn't target anything, open my inventory. I then camped out and logged back on. Clicked on the birdbath and both items were still in there. Got both items back but I still can't aug anything =(

Also noticed that i can't spend any AA's. Tried every possible one that I had enough points for and nothing. I think it might be related to that random box that keeps popping up that says

player handle has request a name change approval from  to name
The player is a UNKNOWN RACE
UNKNOWN CLASS

Havn't had any problems like this untill those boxes started popping up.


*edit*

Found a temp fix around the aug issue. the #bot augmentitem command seems to work if anyone else is having this problem.

This sounds like another "bugged" client. Try to do a clean install of your everquest client (name the EQ folder to something different than before, or install to a new location).

I'm able to aug and spend aa's now. Don't know what fixed it but everythings working fine now. =)

Yesterday my characters were having the same issue with, "player handle has request a name change...", so I wouldn't be surprised if it was just the server. A few others were having the same issue too.



Every time I targeted a player, that dialog would come up, with slightly different text each time . It went away for me too, thankfully.

It went away - but how? Did you relog, reinstall, etc.? What happened?

I actually had made the assumption that the server rebooted while I was sleeping and that fixed it... but the server never rebooted last night. I guess it just went away o_O.

Extra info: Last night while I was having the problem, completely closing and reopening the client did not help.

Since a few people were having the issue (not just me) I assume it's a problem with the server, not my client.

Edit: To be clear; I never reinstalled, or changed anything to try to get the problem to go away. It simply started last night around "[Mon Jul 19 22:58:18 2010]" EDT, and seemed to be gone after I woke up the next morning.

Edit2: Also targeting player pets would make the dialog come up, but not targeting monsters.

This popup happened in May also. [url=forum.thehiddenforest.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=117&t=3309&hilit=%2A+player+handle+%2A[/url]
Unfortunately I dont remember if the cause was determined, but it happened with targetting pc n pet. I think it went away also.
