Trouble logging in to certain servers

drythe7 · #1 04-22-2007, 03:46 AM

I know several people having this problem - and someone smart should try and figure it out! I am actually having this problem right now and cannot figure it out - I've tried everything (but im not the smartest problem solver) I don't want to resort to re installing just so i can play on a server i like! Someone help plz find this bug and squash it! Thank you in advance!

Drythe, have you tried other servers? See if the same results come up on other servers.

Every single other server works perfect - But the one i have been playing on seems to not like me anymore!

Well, if other servers are working fine, then its a issue with that server. We dont have specifc control over every server, so you cant just say someone solve the problem. What is the name of the server that is giving you the issue, like Jest, PEQ:TGC, Rathe, RPG Friends, ect...

I know this isn't for server support posts, but I thought I'd chime in from the server side. Some of the clients logging into my server are having this trouble, and I'll be darned if I can figure out why.

I tried switching from dynamic zones to static, that seemed to help a bit. But every day there seems to be people getting stuck. I don't have the number of players "limited" (don't even know how to limit it...) There's no error being raised in the log files (no event errors logged in windows).

On the world screen, it shows them as a new client, then they just seem to hang (some times the get to char select..) Oddly enough, not everyone is having this problem, but the ones that are say they're ok on other servers (no one on my side of the server is having the problem...)

And they'll be people logged on, having no problems while others are seemingly locked out. There doesn't seem to be any magic number for this either. Could be 1 person on, could be 6 on... Restarting the zone they're in seems to have no affect. They've assured me they have the right clients, and the world seems to be identifying them correctly.

I'm not sure if this post helps or not. I would like to find a fix for this as well though, I'll keep searching...

Could possible be a network or bandwidth issue. What kinda connection do you have. You could in theroy have awsome connection, but if your on public internet (ie Cable, DSL) your ISP may be having badwidth issues. It could be a multitude of things, but if your not getting any errors, I could say that it would be network related. But then again, this is just entierly a assumption, with no facts to back it up directly, just a theroy.
