Problem - I have a huge lagging problem.

[Goldorak]

I load my toons as usual, and now I have massive lag. I thought maybe I had too much stuff, but restart, reload everything, and still massive lag. I changed nothing, same computer, since last september, same toons, but now massive lag. I unload MQ2 and boom, no more lag.

So anyone else having this problem, and more importantly a fix?

 

[Goldorak]

I tried unloading mq2, but when I load it again with the toons logged in, it crashes all my EQ windows.

Well, tried loading all my toons, and then loading mq2, but it crashed them all minus 2...

Load it before eq.

Try turning off MQ2Dannet, the plugin listed in the dmp file title. You can use the updater to change plugins being loaded or edit your MacroQuest.ini file in the release folder.

Turn it off in game via:

/plugin mq2dannet unload

Dannet looks for other computers on your network that are also running Dannet, so it can relay info back and forth between connected toons. It's a great plugin, but you can use EQBC instead if its causing issues.

If this doesn't fix it, I'd try turning off most plugins and see if one of them is the culprit.

WOW you sir, are a life saver.

/plugin mq2dannet unload
did it for me btw.

I believe this particular issue is one of firewalls closing the DanNet sockets. I could be wrong and conflating issues, but for posterity: @Goldorak what antivirus/firewall software do you use?

Also, paging Dr. @dannuic . Dr. dannuic to the triage room.
