h and i builds stop responding, had to go back to g, last stable for me

[kllrwlf]

In using version i yesterday, I had two crashes... weird ones.

Main Computer XP SP2 - 3 Toons (only other app I had running was Firefox in the background)
2nd Computer XP SP2 - 2 Toons

My main computer "froze" up... well, at least the video did. I was still able to control all 5 toons from my 2nd computer.

Had to task manager and force quit all of them and reboot.

This happened after about 1.5 hours of play.

It seemed like it happened when I was rotating the view with my mouse then about to click on an quartermaster NPC in Skettis. The 2nd time was when I was rotating the view with my mouse and about to click to bomb the eggs in Skettis. (it might all be coincidence though... because I haven't been able to have it repeat)

This happened twice, so I switched back to version G, and haven't had a problem the rest of the day and today.

Let me know if you need any specific information and I'll try to reproduce it and actually gather more info while playing... instead of just playing.

Yep, same issue with me. Version i only stops working on one box though. I have two XP Pro systems and one Vista Home edition. My laptop running XP has had numerous hangups that required a reboot to clear.

Reinstalled G on all 6 computers Lock ups on the one machine went away.

1 computer XP Home edition sp3 - failing/locking up with version h and i (within 30min of heavy usage 100% of the time)

2 computers XP Pro SP3, 1 XP Media Center 2002 SP3, 1 VIsta Permium sp1, 1 Vista Ultimate sp1

Could there be an issue with SP3 on Windows XP Home? Tested with version f also worked without lockups.

I've been getting random but rare lock ups for months ... usually happens on my Vista box but has happened on XP as well.

I reverted to 1.8G last night, played for 6 hours and had no lock-ups at all.

Bliss.

Guess I'm stuck on G

@Rob

I'm not ignoring you; I just haven't had any trouble the last few days.

I'm currently running Keyclone on my XP32 laptop but running my rogue on my XP64 machine without Keyclone as I don't want to rebuild his UI just for boosting purposes. So XP64 isn't getting a workout at the moment which may be why I'm not seeing any problems.

If I do have any more problems I'll be sure to take the time to gather some info for you.

[keyclone]

on sunday, i started keyclone on my desktop (xp) and my laptop (vista)... played about 12+ hours since... and they are both still connected and still running.

it's getting to a point that i am wondering if anyone experiencing any problems are running the same program.

I suppose that depends if you're running the published 1.8i build. I certainly was

Something broke after 1.8g. It doesn't affect everyone - not every "most" people by the look of things - but it's there.

[keyclone]

i'm not disagreeing... it's just damn tough to pin down if i can't reproduce.

i was thinking it had something to do with the speeds of the machines.. and with that, pointed me towards a thread contention or exception... and when i thought about the garbage collection i was doing...

i made a tweak but won't be able to test until tonight. of course, my test won't mean squat... so.. who would be willing to be a guinea pig that is currently experiencing these problems?

[HomersDonut]

I've been experiencing these odd lockups with version i as well so would be happy to test out the next version.
