This is probably not an MQ2 issue, specifically, but I feel like the people who read this forum are more informed and helpful than the brown sea that is the official EQ forums, so I'm asking here for help.
I have an issue that is currently affecting one of my characters, but has affected others in the past. It happens *after* I load into a zone. So it is specifically not during the transition and loading process between the time you hit a zone line and when you're able to move around in the new zone. I'm able to load into the new zone and move around for about 5 to 10 seconds and then the game soft locks (zero framerate, if that makes sense). It stays locked for anywhere from 15 seconds to sometimes over 1 minute. It does not crash the client, although Windows Task Manager reports the process as "Not Responding" until it comes back. Once it comes back, I'm able to move around and play normally until I hit the next zone transition. This also happens whenever this character loads a UI skin.
I use 14 characters across 6 accounts. I have noticed this happening on most, but not quite all, of my characters at some point in time, but currently it only affects a single character. I've relogged, rebooted multiple times, this current character has been like this for about 4 days, every time it zones. I've tested sans MQ2, sans ISBoxer. I've logged in through the launcher, clean, nothing else, single instance. Loaded default UI, still happens every time. At one point I completely reinstalled EQ and dumped all my settings (eqclient.ini, ui_name_server.ini, etc), but nothing has solved the problem for good.
Any troubleshooting questions I'd be happy to answer. I could probably make a video of the behavior if that would help too.
