[VN Boards Archive]
Welcome to the Vault Network forum archive.

This is not a complete archive, time didn't allot us the opportunity to properly backup the majority of the boards deemed "expendable". Most boards on this list have at least 20-40 pages archived (non-logged in pages, 15 topics per page).

Popular boards may have as many as 250 pages archived at 50 topics per page, while others deemed of historical signifigance may be archived in their entirety.

We may not agree with how the board shutdown was managed, but we've done what we could to preserve some of its history in lieu of that.

 Subject: Can't get Decal and AC to play nice
I'm a returning player, and have AC installed and working, so long as it's not with Decal.

I originally started at 2.9.6.0, which didn't crash acclient, but it also didn't hook into it.

I then updated to 2.9.6.5. This version causes acclient to stop working right after I select a world to join. The screen goes momentarily black, then back do the desktop with the "acclient has stopped working" dialog box.

Since I saw the request to try the new installer with 2.9.6.6, I installed that (which worked fine). This version behaves exactly like 2.9.6.5 did, crashing acclient immediately upon launch.

I'm running Windows 7, and am installing Decal and AC to N:, so I think I should be ok in terms of permissioning (avoiding Program Files).

I've disabled the Windows Firewall (another thread with a similar issue from early January seemed to indicate that fixed his problem) but that doesn't seem to have helped me.

Decal is running with Administrator privileges. I've tried running AC both with and without Administrator privileges, but it doesn't make a difference.

Here's an export from Decal:

 Subject: Can't get Decal and AC to play nice
Further experimentation has shown that I can get things to work by disabling the Decal Render Service. This allows me to get the DHS running, but whenever the window is open, my framerate is really bad. I'm not sure if that's typical or a result of the render service, or something else.

I was then able to start up with all the Virindi bundle, and while it did load, I had a lot of error spam (mostly GoArrow, it seems) as well as some other ugly dialogs along the way (including one just after I pressed Enter World).

So, does anyone know what might be causing me the issue with the Decal Render Service? Do I need it?

Disabling GoArrow seems to have stabilized the application, though it still crashes (acclient has stopped working) when exit the game. FPS is still very low whenever I have a decal subwindow opened.
