Clients Crashing with custom map - RunUO

nex666 · 07-23-2005, 01:06 AM

Hello, I was just wondering why clients crash on my server. I don't have many scripts installed.
I'm pretty sure it's my custom map though.
It's when I go to certain regions / spots, I have edited regions.xml too, I tried emptying it and trying again but it did the same thing.
Any help would be great, thanks.

Without knowing anything about your shard, not much we can do.

I would agree its your custom map, so you must have done something wrong.

Wow, I love the attitude; I come here for help. Not to be made to feel like i'm stupid.

My shard is a standard runuo 1.0 install with the following scripts installed:
Knives' Town Houses
AOS Unidentification System
XMLSpawner2
ASayre8's CustomRegion with slight mod

I have only modified the regions.xml and the .go locations.

If your going to be a pain about me asking for more information I just won't help. I took time out of my day to try to help you, I know nothing about your shard, so what do you expect?

For the record I had not attitude toward you, I didn't insult you in any way shape or form, and if you felt insulted in any fashion your fault because that was not my intention. If you feel "stupid" by me saying I agree its a problem with your map then you have issues that I cannot help you with.

I am done here, I don't need to be abused by somebody who is asking for help. I could take the insults from a member who has been here for awhile but not somebody who has only been here for 2 months.

Just the "You must of done something wrong" sounded like you were. That's how I took it, I didn't mean to insult you, I didn't think I did. I just said you made me feel stupid. Didn't insult you personally in any way

Now I feel bad about it and I am actually sorry Phantom.

And *duh* I should've added this earlier, this is the error that pops up on the console. I am actually stupid for not posting this :P

I bet its not the custom map files themselves.. it must be the edits you did to the region.xml

If I was going to call you stuipid I would call you stupid.

This is how people find ways to dislike me, the read into what I say, instead of reading what I wrote

The error you get come from a problem with your network card. You should update the driver/or replace the card, the card has an issue with a feature/function with the .NET Framework Network methods ( how runuo works ).

how can a null reference error come from a bad network card? I mean I was on that shard too and crashed the same moment. I loged back in and as soon as I opened my minimap my client crashed. I assume the error is somewhere in the client patch the shard provides, but honestly this problem is by far out of my league.

I explained that error, don't try to read into the error.

The client crash is indeed in the changes you made, the error I explained isn't.

I tried a normal region.xml and mine

with the same result sadly.
Thanks though.

The changes I made to what?
It was doing this when i changed back to the normal xml files and everything too, it does that error when I crash (when anyone does) so I presumed it was linked to it.
Just trying to figure this out still heh.

Try doing what I suggested.

Just updated my network card drivers, tried on my onboard network card with updated drivers. Same thing

Ok, it seems to happen with the minimap as Kamoflauro stated. Also I think this might have something to do with it:

This item isnt in my decoration files, this item isn't in any files. Just appearing here

So you know Nex, I did see this error pop up on login while I was testing TownHouses. It happened when I demolished a town house, but the region didn't properly dispose. For some reason when the character logs in and the region they were in no longer exists, it boots them out swiftly once, causing a client crash. It should only happen the once though.

In testing the recent release (0.92) I used a little redundancy to ensure the regions are properly disposed. So try the new release just to see if that may be it.
