Connection Lost During Zoning...

[Linideen1]

Iv been having alot of my guys going LD During zoning, I loaded up another PC and its doing that same thing. Was wondering if anyone else is experiencing this or if its just a network problem on my side?

Figured it out for the most part, Was an Issue with corrupt Graphics file i believe, The Patcher updated my Global Load and i forgot to change it back.

Code: Select all

4,0,TFFFC,Global2_chr,Loading Global Items and Equipment
3,0,TFFFC,skt_chr,Loading Character Equipment Files
2,0,TFFFE,sofequip.eqg,Loading SOF Character Equipment Files


Are the 3 that came up in the Error logs the most. I removed these on my main 4 that run from 1 Folder and then i have 2 more folders that i removed everything and added just ....

Code: Select all

3,1,TFFF,Global_chr,Loading Characters
3,0,TFFFC,thfobj.eqg,Loading Characters
3,1,TFFF,Global_chr,Loading Characters
1,1,TFFF,Global_obj,Loading Character Equipment Files
1,1,TFTF,GEquip,Loading Character Equipment Files


Working good again
My guess is somewhere along the line my files where corrupted or just plain out missing. and When i zone into somewhere the called for them my comp would just sit there trying to load that file forever.

Linideen1, what error logs are you viewing to see your errors? I fail to zone often and found the below info in my dbg.txt file. All this happens with other characters logged in, so I know it's not my connection.

[Fri Apr 19 21:14:19 2013]00536:Zone Connect -- 0 -- Received MSG_ZONE_ADDRESS

I also see the below msg and my character will never zone, even after 10+ minutes.

Anyone have any suggestions troubleshooting packet loss or changing the path your router takes to a destination? I'm getting dropped packets to router 83.217.233.2 (Budapest), which is the 13th hop to the THF server.
