Subject: Coming Back, but having Decal Issues
Hey, I'm just coming back to AC and having some issues with my Decal. My client has been crashing an awful lot and I've tried running all kinds of stuff and uninstalling lifetank because apparently that is a "crash causer" from what I've been reading on other boards. I'm getting to the point where I'm very frustrated because this comp can run crysis and WoW steadily, but no AC a 10 year old game that I can run on my computer I got in 1998.

I've tried all kinds of things and I've included my export below on here in the hope that I'll be able to find a fix. Also, when I went to register for the decal forums themselves i consistently got rejected by the text confirmation thing where you have to type what you see in. I typed it right atleast once where it was easy to read and it still said I was wrong. Not sure what to make of that, but just thought I'd mention it. Please let me know if there is anything I can do to help fix this problem.

Thanks.

Only thing I can see from your export is your video drivers are almost a year old. See if there are any updates and see if that helps any.

Edit: Are you crashing just when macroing? I have noticed that when i'm macroing if I tab in and out of AC alot (reading news/playing poker) that my client crashes more than if I just run AC and don't mess with it.

It has happened both ways, if I'm PK'ing with it on it crashes, if I'm macroing it crashes even with just 1 client open and me watching in less than 2 hours typically. It seems to happen faster when there are a large amount of mobs or things to render ie other people, but it still happens eventually even in a low spawn rate area. The longest I've run is 4 hours, and that was with me tabbing back and forth between 2 clients. I was having the one client on a follow macro with VTank vulning/Imping for a noob I made.

I'll look into the video drivers, thanks for the suggestion.

what OS, i know it says xp pro blah blah, but i've seen same type of line for vista or win7 so not sufficient info (but since some stuff is working i'm afraid any easy obvious fix for vista/win7 is unlikely since you probably have XP, just hoping NOT).

also note decal export doesn't display .netframework 3.5 as that and those OS were released way post decal. only thing i know for sure that needs 3.5 is alinco.

as for all those thirst programs NOT a clue what they are so assuming PK related, and thus NO info on their stability.

do you have ANY stability problems jsut RUNNING AC? that line about no cant run 10year old AC is bothersome.

DO you mean more aptly can't run ac AND decal and a lot of plugins.

Yeah thirst is PK related, allows for quick casting on people who are UCM'ing so they have a pk timer before log out making them easy to kill (one of the penalties of not paying attention). Also has some other features for targeting other PK's in the area.

I have tested decal with just VTank running and there were still issues.

Also it is XP Pro, and Alinco is working. I'm pretty sure I installed 3.5 as a prereq to installing Alinco, but I can check again.

I've updated the video card drivers, I'll keep you guys posted on how it turns out.

if alicno is working then yes 3.5 is installed.

was pretty sure yours was XP even though i've seen it listed that way with win7 users also.

next step is to turn ALL off but vtank and see how that runs.

then go thru SLOWLY adding one plugin at a time testing to see if the issue(S) come back. NOTE which plug in what issues, turn that one off and continue adding till all but the OFFENDING(s) are back on and things seem stable.


then I guess someone like VI can step in and see what plugin(s) are the problem child to your system. at which point may want to turn off all the 'behaving ones' and turn on the 'bad' one(S) and report back with what issues it is causing

I would just about bet the updated driver solves the problem.
