Crashing a lot since Pub 103

Doesn't seem to have any pattern. I've crashed when stocking my vendor, while afk bank sitting, training my pet, crafting, etc. and this has never happened before or with any other publish. There are still several equipped items that show different and incorrect art on paper doll vs on the character... maybe that's the problem?  Is it just me or anyone else crashing randomly after this pub? 

I should add it's in the Classic Client.

I had issues with the paperdoll items in classic.  I clicked the Perform Full File Check option on the patcher and it cleared it all up.  Give this a try and see if it helps.

I haven’t crashed on Classic for about a year now. 

And publish 103 isn’t out yet.

What files does 'perform full file check' check? does it overwrite your existing macro files, screen setup files, etc. back to standard and you have to set them all up again?

Because yes, the crashing is more frequent, and gettting quite annoying

Just checks the Files in UO's Program Files Folder. Not your macros or screen setups or anything like that. 

Reckon I will try that then, as well.   Maybe it will even stop that annoying skip I get a lot of, where at the spawn my archer will just randomly be yanked over a tile or two.  That has increased as well

While pub 103 has not been rolled out on the servers both clients have been updated to play on Pub 103, hence being able to play with it on TC, the CC options are already in, etc etc. so the client updates for the publish have been in for a while now regardless of the publish 'not being out yet' server-side.

I will give this a shot thanks!

cleaning and defragging your hard drive works wonders too.

New computer i7 7700k 16g OC RAM w/ 1070ti card, defragged clean SSD & I crash randomly for no obvious reasons. Never had this problem before, started last week. 

Log shows client error in UO. It’s NOT the computer. Seems to happen more often when using any screen resolution higher than default 800/600 tho it still happens at default just not as often. Done multiple full file checks, still happens. Haven’t delete UO & full reinstall but may try that later. I’m using the CC w/ UOA.

 Can post the Win10 Pro error code, which is alway the same, if ya’ll think that would help. I’m thinking it’s a memory leak but haven’t tried to debug - that’s their job not mine. They DEFINITELY need to fix this. I’ve died doing the Khaldun spawn well over a dozen time due to this & it’s freakin’ annoying.

***Edit*** I’ve never had the dsync/skip move on my characters, just the crash.

Can you post your Full settings under options including your graphics, display size, etc etc, anything you think might be relevant and I can try to recreate your issue. 

on my old computer I have been getting this since Publish 101 went live...
when that happens I will perform full file check & then later in the day I will get a fatal error & it will close completely... and when I log back in, all my icons are off my screen... lost count of how many times that happened. (fatal error is just a small box, didn't get a screen shot of that)

recently my hubby bought me a gamers computer & I have had the fatal error twice now. Once at blighted grove & the other time I was chopping goza mats. 

And the file check and defrag didn't stop my issues either...still doing it

Sound/Music - sound on   music off   only checked play footstep sounds & reverse speakers.
Pop-up Help - checked Use Tool-tips and top font type selected.
Chat is all default
Interface - Checked are 1st, 3rd, 4th, 5th & 6th options, Follow Mouse and last Object Handles.
Display - Full screen resolution (which I don't use) 1024x768
   Game Play Window seems to cause more frequent crashes when other than default 800x600
   Checked Scale speech duration and Colored Lighting - all rest default.
Reputation System - all default w/ checked Block War on Pets & Block War on Friendly.
Misc. - checked Use circle of transparency set at 200 (w/ a macro to toggle on/off) usually its off. Checked Flying Animation Enable - Large Bank & Vault Gumps (this I changed sometime last week? I do LOVE it but it's the only option I've changed recently & may be causing probs?)

Application Error
Faulting application name client.exe, version: 7.0.73.13
Exception Code: 0xc0000409 (this never changes)
Faulting application path: C:\Program Files (x86)\Electronic Arts\Ultima Online Classic\client.exe

Havent changed the bank gump option...so thats not it

Not a crash but with the latest EC update my character just stops moving and I have release the right mouse button and reclick it get my character to move again.

I've had a relaxing active evening in UO, no issues for me, classic client.

More folks complaining abt crashing at Khaldun spawn today. I think its more then just a few of us. So far 3 that I've seen in the last couple hours down here.

Can confirm that I've been talking with a handful of people and they're all having the same random crashes since pub 103 went through to the client. All are CC users except 1 that uses EC and they have reported crashing as well. Also, several pieces of clothing/armor are STILL displaying wrong  in the CC, which may or may not be causing this problem?

 
Leather suneate is one of them. Don't remember the others but there are a handful.

May be a good course of action to go through all the paperdoll art assets and make sure they are pointing to the proper overhead character artwork?

Are you guys using the new Dress macros at any point during these crashes? Like at any point since you login before it crashes

No; I have not touched any of the new options or made any changes in my options since the patch hit.

I have been getting the crashes as far back as publish 100    not as frequent as of late but still getting dropped without warning is getting annoying.

Please fix this thanks

If you can provide more details on the exact steps to reproduce the crashes you are having that will help us get them resolved quickly. The Leather suneate issue will be resolved in the next client patch. Also please identify any other equipment that you know have display issues. 

There are no steps for me to be able to reproduce.  It happened 3 times this morning, in a 30 minute span.  I rage logged lol.  An hour this afternoon, doing the same things, and no problem.

*shrugs*

Same as above - the only constant is the error log already posted. 

Got it home tonight, logged in, recalled to Khaldun, ran down to the spawn & crashed within 60 secs. Managed to get back on b4 I died (a rarity) then finished the spawn/boss with no issues.

Greatly appreciate ya’ll looking into this but honestly have no idea what else I can post that may be of help. I’ll keep trying to find a common thread but right now I’m clueless 🙁

I don't crash but i do freeze only when i double client where my character cannot move or speak but chat is still going.

Also today i have a character using the Hunters Headress that unequipped when i logged in telling me that I'm not the owner. It's the same HH I've had for 10 years.

Just wanted to clarify, I never duel client.

No double clienting here either.  And mine is a crash, not a freeze.

  I have been getting that freeze tho, where I can't move or speak, usually seems to happen after recalling or gating somewhere.  Can see chat, NPCs walking around, weird.  Usually after recalling or gating.

The new "Target nearest hostile" with an additonal "Attack selected" makes me crash with the latest patch with the classic client. First I crashed every few mins in Khaldun cause I used the macro pretty often cause the targets change alot with the teleporting skeletons and ambushers. As I found out, it could be the macro making me crash, I use the macro more cautiously and only crash rarely.

I can confirm on this. Drowy and I were running spawns earlier and I crashed every few min using the new targeting macro. Stopped using it and didn’t crash at all. Happened to me in Khaldun, Destard, and Doom. Only been happening since 103 client update. Happening with UOA and vanilla client. Seems to be more frequent in huge spawning areas because seems ok when it’s just a few mobs close by to me. Makes for attacking nearest with whirlwind very annoying when the client crashes every few minutes. 

So to stop crashing, we have to stop using the new CC targetting....
Without that, the patch was a wash lol, that was the best part of it

I called ya out for the crashing so let me b the first to THANK YOU FOR FIXING IT !!

Havent crashed once this week. Thanks for getting on this Team  🙂. Much appreciated !!

So far so good here too. I haven't crashed in just over 24h after I patched for the publish 103 release to the select 3 shards. Then again I didn't play a whole lot. Will update if I do start to crash again, otherwise, thanks!

I'm also having a similar issue. Whenever I use my hotkey "select nearest > hostile" ; attackselected, I crash probably 30% of the time. It's been going on for probably last 2-3 weeks. I am on CC.

I have been dropping without warning at least once a day...
