Subject: New Decal Not Very Good
It constantly crashes me. I've turned down the graphics, etc. and still it's very unstable. The previous decal was much more stable.

heres my export.

I must admit even with 1 of a number of plugins running I get constant crashes and I do understand plugins can cause crashes to but I have tried so many Alpha 7 pluginsd solo and still get craches I put it down to the core decal app itself, I have a 6800GT 256M GeForce card w/ latest drivers so it shouldn't (cant say 100% that it isnt) be a video card memory issue.

Ive tried lots different Alpha 7 plugins individually and with combos of plugins all without luck, crashes abound so I hoping for more with the next version of Decal.

Thats said we do appreciate all the work the devs do and hope this can be adressed.

Cheers

For those running the new Go Arrow, uncheck "Automatically update recall coordinates" on the Settings > Route Finding tab. If you don't it crashes.

i run the new decal3 alpha 7 on 3 computers.

one only has eltank buff bot running as close to 24/7 as i can manage.

a second is runing muletradeit 24/7 and used to log in a salavge expert nearly hourly so it also has sortit and agentz loaded.

the main computer for actually running a live toon has sssort, findit and questtimer running. occassionally i'll turn off those 3 and turn on makeit.


besides the occassional attempted to log in too quickly and CTD issue that is avoided by pausing between an account log out and next toon on account logging in, I've had 0 crashes on these computers since alpha 7 was released.

however, after about 28 or 36 horus i do need to close down muletradeit as the amount of memory acclient.exe is runing, starts out about 80-100 and can drop to about 40,000 K when minimized will slowly spiral up to about 200,000 K and start acting sluggish. so i close it down and restart when i notice that memory leakage has gotten out of control.

so claiming Decal3 alpha 7 is .... i'd say is bogus, the problem may lie in your comptuer setup or plugins.

I haven't touched it because of all the problems.

I've read the notes about what the new version is supposed to fix, but what does it actually fix ... in laymans terms? I mean the one "problem" that I had with Decal wasn't fixed ... ie that it appears to crash to the desktop more with Decal on (even if no plugins are running) that with it not on.

Decal works great for me, it's the plugins that cause the problem. There are two recommended fixed for Go Arrow. Anyone who is using Go Arrow and is crashing should disable it and see if they still crash...I suspect that's the culprit right now for many people. I've also found that installing Tank FIRST before installing any other plugins helps Tank run better...at least for me.

If people are crashing, they need to get into the habit of disabling all plugins BEFORE posting here, and just run Decal, to see they you crash like before (meaing...do the same thing you did to cause it to crash before, and see if you can recreate the circumstance). Then start adding plugins one at a time until you identify the problem plugin and either look for a fix, or don't use it.

Well, I've used today's downtime to do a clean install of Decal 3 Alpha 7 and all my fav plugins (that have been updated)

Of course I'll have to wait for post-patch memlocs etc. Gives me a chance to play my mage.

Looking forward to trying it out.

What Thorgred said. Worked for me. I always had Decal probs for the last year or so. I don't crash at all now so something must be better.

Yup, sorry about the GoArrow deal. I'll try to get an update out soon... but first I'm going to wait to see if this patch requires any changes.
