Problem - Crashing / Loosing toons when boxing after patch

I logged in and in just over 3 mins my toon crashed. I logged him in again seeing if it was a fluke, and he crashed in about the same amount of time.

I ran a windows update (running Win 7 Pro 64) and ran him again and he didn't crash. I thought it might be something to do with the nag window as it popped up just over 3 mins this time but didn't crash.

I thought the update had solved the problem, but I logged in another too, same server, and he crashed about 3 mins in.

So I logged in my Gold toon in case it was a nag window issue, and he crashed about 1 minute in.

The one toon that made it past the 3 minute still seems to be humming along nicely, but I can't get any others up.

I have attached the related crash files, but it won't let me attach the actual binary dump file.

Windows 7 is inferior with recent updates with video cards and other drivers. You should move up to Windows 10, its rock solid and has much better optimizations for CPU Cores and the most up to date drivers. with the improved thread scheduler alone, you should see a noticeable performance increase.
 
Furthermore, Microsoft recently announced they will be charging a monthly subscription fee to continuing support for that version. You can probably get around that, but that'll prevent you from getting updates and that puts you at risk.
 
Is it worth upgrading win7->win10 for an old duo-core gaming laptop just for performance? Have 8 mb memory and running 6 toons I'm at 80-85% usage unless I manually manage it.
 
yup it keeps crashing and it sucks im hoping they will release a new patch to fix it or something because it really really sucks
 
I have to unload MQ2 when raiding in ROS. It creates UNGODLY amounts of lag in the OT Cacktikkii raid. The VP raid crashes me constantly. When I unload it everything goes back to normal. Maybe there is a clue in this that might help figure something out.
 
Try renaming & backing up eqclient.ini in your everquest folder, and let everquest make a new one. If that doesn't work, please post the plugin section from your macroquest.ini

Please send your crash dumps to [email protected]
 
I did send the windows crash dump over to the mule but ended up taking Frimp's advice, reluctantly, and upgraded to Windows 10 and it seems to be humming along nicely.
 
I'm not sure if its a MQ or WinEQ problem. But a couple minutes after starting lesson and grind, 1 or 2 out of 5 character windows disappear in the middle of fights,
and the characters go poof really fast!! Not like LD for a few minutes.
Happened 3 times in a row. Tried restarting all software etc. Running EQBCS eqmule.

Anyone else having problems?

PS: I has happened a couple times before patch. But then only 1 window, and not many times.
 
Redbot's edit:
A NEW UPDATE WAS JUST PUSHED.

Please run Update.exe and try again before reporting crashes.

Original thread:
-------------------------------------------------------
I am getting alot of crashes since I updated the client today. These only seem to be on my tank. Any suggestions on how to fix? It actually crashes the tank down to the desktop (eq crashes) while all other tunes are fine.

War and Zerker usually goes.

Or actually always those 2 classes....

Its no problem if im just running around with toons on haul, or staying in gh or whatever. But as soon as i set camp and bard starts pulling, it dosent take more then a few mobs.

My tanks are crashing when i use /melee steely=1 So far no issues with other classes but none of them use mq2melee for buffs.
 
When boxing all 6 i actually have 4 melee types. So is a big problem for sure :(

I haven't set up any buffs / skills in mq2melee for berserker yet. Only kiss atm.
 
here is the scenario.
load up 6 box team. get a few buffs and run to VP. so far so good. Engage the basilisks at zone in. get 1 hit in and get the error message on the SK. Invalid Parameter. failed to inject. then im looking at a pile of corpses because the SK client crashed. using Mules version of KA it seemed to be happening at the beginning of a pull and engage.
SO i swapped to 10.2.6 and it still happens just not as often. in the past hour my SK client has crashed no less than 12 times.
any suggestions?
happened once on BL and not at all on the others.
 
My SK is definitely crashing within seconds of starting up. Happened to my zerkers too and even my cleric so I'm not so sure it's confined to melees only.

It's not a normal crash either, the window just completely disappears instantly like EQ wasn't even running, lol.
 
My tank is crashing too - but only the tank I have that's using Eqmule's version of Kissassist. All of my other tanks which are using regular Kissassist are fine. Unsure if this is at all relevant but just an observation.

There also seems to be a new "feature" with Eqmule's Kissassist where it beeps every time it thinks a group member is out of range or dead and holds pulls. Which is almost more annoying than crashing every 30min.
 
my SK crashed as well using kiss 10.2.6 i took off things 1 by one and added them back in once i found the problem and it looks like it was steely=1 so i just removed that untill it gets fixed and i can still play.

Perhaps something in common in the buffs section with tanks and...maybe breather.

I also noticed that none of my other toons have ScatterOn=1 other than the one that is crashing.
 
Yes the compile was fixed and uploaded. Use the updater to patch the compile
 
its not fixed i am still crashing with steely=1 but when i take it off and re run the game its fine
 
I'm not sure if its a MQ or WinEQ problem. But a couple minutes after starting lesson and grind, 1 or 2 out of 5 character windows disappear in the middle of fights,
and the characters go poof really fast!! Not like LD for a few minutes.

I have the same probleme with my zerker / warrior :(

This is as close to a dump I can get for when my tanks and zerker crash. Not running any macros and standard plugins loaded.

If someone wants to point me to a winDBG for windows 7 pro I'd be happy to collect whatever dump I can.

It doesn't happen on my warrior only the knights and I have tried setting steely to 0
