Anyone crashing loading into test copy server?

[Nuhus]

Topic is pretty much the question, I didn't have a problem with it until the latest update. Getting the  "program stopped working" box. =/

My test client is crashing on load ever since todays patch.

[Nuhus]

yeah, i can't load into the normal test server either. <img src="/smilies/9d71f0541cff0a302a0309c5079e8dee.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />

i had the same issue when i first went to play on the test copy server. Here is what i did to correct it.Browse to the location of my test server data,  in my case was    c:program filessonyeverquest iiTestServerdouble click on the following folders and deleted the contents    cache    logincache    logincache-usI also deleted the eq2.ini but i had copied my eq2 folder over to speed the process up of downloading.I've had the crashes before and clearing the cache folders normally helped,  I had custom UI installed for Live was the only reason i removed the eq2.ini, but i did all that at once so  i can't say what corrected the problemZantanium80 CoercerHouse of CardsCrushbone

Tried it all.... updateing vid card, full file scan, deleting the cache files and eq2.ini

My problem is with the launcher itself crashing also. Immediately after starting I get a box: "EQ2 Client Application has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience."

[Kethaera]

OK, in trying absolutely everything to get the darn thing to work, my husband disabled my anti-virus (AVG, if that makes a difference), re-downloaded the launcher, and I now seem to be successfully patching the GU. So if nothing else is working for you, you might try that.

I can't start a new thread in this forum for some reason, but Tech Support asked me to post the crash log here:For clarification this is the crash that started immediately after patching to the latest version of the test client.

We're going to plug it back in and see if that fixes the problem. Thanks for the reply!EDIT: CONFIRMED!! That fixed it! Thanks for the tip, Autenil!

Glad to be a help <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /> Thanks for the quick fix!

<p>I had the same problem with the program stopping after i pressed the play button, but, it seems that Windows Vista doesn't detect a microphone and install it untill u plug it in.</p><p>thx for the info <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></p>

<p>I have been trying for three days to get the 'test server' version to work on my computer.  I did all the things stated on the Forum FAQ, all three times.  Did a wipe and roll back and restart and everthing else in the word I can think of .. and more.  And the dern thing still wont work.  I play in the reg game on Mistmore server.  When I try to load the test server, it says cant find Mistmore then says a screen pops up that says I need to log in again and I use the same login and password and it tells me it is not correct and dumps me out.  What the heck?  Help me please.  My friends and I want to be able to test the changes that are coming up before they hit the live servers.  Please help... <img src="/smilies/9d71f0541cff0a302a0309c5079e8dee.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></p>
