Client crash??

T101 · #1 11-30-2011, 04:23 PM

Quick question. Why does Fetish crash the client every time I try to play? I have updated it via EQ2Maps and have FetishDarkRoyale selected in EQ2Maps. The game begins to load however, when I select a char to log into the game, it crashes and quits running all together. Any help would be great! Tnx.

Without a link to it I can't be 100% sure which you're using, but to my knowledge no version of DarkRoyale has been updated recently. Old UIs are missing key features or have conflicts that result in crashes.

Your best bet is to use Fetish Nightfall for now. Hopefully Fetish will be converted to use styles soon and then updating it for DarkRoyale will be relatively simple.

To my knowledge this is the only UI I've ever seen called Dark Royale. That mod was a completely separate mod that was based off Fetish, but never supported by Zonx. That said, that UI is 4 years old, and is two versions behind the last build of Fetish that Zonx released. There are at least 5 different windows that I can think of off the top of my head that would cause a complete client crash. With the age of it, the Dark Royale UI would need almost a complete overhaul to make it function again.

As Lordebon said; your best bet is to download version 11.9 of Fetish Nightfall, then download the GU 61 patch, afterwords, run the updater for EQ2Maps.

As for the colorstyles... I'm sending you a PM Lordebon.

Fetish Nightfall isn't even on the /loadui screen. I am beginning to think that none of these custom UI's like my machine *sigh* Kinda frustrating but it is what it is. I suppose I will not be using any of them

You need to be sure that you are installing the UIs properly, and it is better to use the eq2.ini instead of the /loadui command. I believe this guide is current: http://www.eq2interface.com/forums/showthread.php?t=293

I did use the .ini files as per install instructions. I placed the .ini file in the sub-folder of the UI folder and that did not work; I placed in directly into the main EQ2 folder and that did not work either. I am certain there is something simple that I am doing incorrectly however, my old brain is a bit on the hacked side, per say, as I am on some strong pain meds due to a recent major back/neck surgery and they have been cause me to have memory lapses. I will continue working on it and hopfully I will recall how to make these things run properly. 6 years ago this was never an issue however, old age catches up with one and it tends to screw ones memory to crap. The meds don't help either
