Me and 3 buddies play on test server and all use MQ2 & KA. Since the last patch (2/20), all of us have had issues with KA. It worked then crashed. After that initial crash, none of our KA running toons will function properly. They don't seem to be checking other group players for buffs or heals. I didn't see anyone else post about this yet but all 4 of us have tried numerous things and can't figure out what the problem is. Anyone else experiencing this or have any ideas on stuff to try? Thanks!

Shifehoe, under the section about the test server very vanilla compile for 2/20 it mentions some steps to take if your client starts crashing a lot.

I pasted the information Maskoi talked about below, and the article where the compile was talked about. Hope these help.
----UPDATE----
Another good resource to reach out to about test server is GPS_Soldier
He plays a lot on the Test servers and may be aware of some of the issues you may run into with test server patches etc.

Rich (BB code):
If you are having crashing issues, there are two ways to fix it:
RGUpdate 1.1 users:
Open RGUpdate, click "settings" and uncheck:
"MQ2Autoskills"
"MQ2Otd"
"MQ2WinXP"
"MQ2Timestamp"
"MQ2BagWindow"
(while you're there, make sure overwrite macros is checked!)
Click save, and then click update.
Everyone else:
Go to your MQ2 Release folder. Edit MacroQuest.ini
Scroll down to [Plugins] and delete the following:
Rich (BB code):
Code:
mq2autoskills=1
mq2bagwindow=1
mq2otd=1
mq2winxp=1
mq2timestamp=1
You should be good to go.
All of these plugins are now obsolete, having been replaced long ago, and their .dll files are safe to delete from your MQ2 folder.(make sure overwrite macros is checked!)----UPDATE----

Thanks alot Pyrochaser. For once, I HAD actually read the entire original post instead of only downloading and installing and made sure I didn't have any of those plugins so that wasn't it. But thanks for the reference to GPS_Soldier and for responding!

shifehoe,
Still having problems? As Pyrochaser stated, I play on Test server exclusively, but I wouldn't call myself the KA guru (that is left for others especially Maskoi and THD). The differences from playing on Live servers and Test are minimal a best, so 99.9% of the troubleshooting support you get from anyone should work on Test as well.

Yeah, it's really strange. Everything works until the character has the initial crash. Then after reloading, that character will not buff or heal anyone other than himself and it doesn't crash again. Just the first time. However all other functions seem to be fine such as dps & mezzing. Anything NOT involving checking other members of the group.

What version of KA do you have? Just thinking out loud. I know for a while I was like 3 versions behind the current because I wasn't updating the KA macro. I think they recently started including it into the Vanilla Compile but I might be wrong.
