Howdy.


After the implementation of the new Dratan zone, hundreds of players became plagued by frequent "Runtime Errors". These occurred when:

1) Going into prokion of tomb of theos temples,
2) Fighting in Dratan Castle siege
3) Teleporting to the zone from another zone
4) Just from running around.

While the idea of a "Run time error" is not something new to LC. The frequency and the scope with which these errors occurred in the new Dratan, were unlike anything we had seen before.

In an effort to fix this problem, I began a dialogue with the developers, our players, and GS'.

Last week I received news from the developers that on August 26th 2008, a new bug tracking system was implemented into the game. This system was designed specifically to log crashes, and random occurrences related to them.

Included in this new tracking system was a bug fix for the Dratan Crash issues.


Since August 26th I have confirmed GS' reports that the Dratan Crashes have become much fewer and far between.

Crash log posts on the official thread http://forums.aeriagames.com/viewtopic.php?t=150292 have also been surprisingly light since August 26th. With only two new entries.


These signs lead me to believe that the majority of the crash issues have indeed been fixed. However, I cannot be sure until I have player feedback.


So please take the time to participate in the poll on the front page of the website. http://lastchaos.aeriagames.com/ (Bottom right side)

Poll question is: After August 26th, How often does the game crash in Dratan?




If you are still crashing often, in Dratan please send all of your error logs and post them to this thread http://forums.aeriagames.com/viewtopic.php?t=150292


Thanks!!!

lol i didnt even no anythin was done about this 0_o *goes to dratan to try to enter tomb*

my game is working for 100% fine now for me no lag no crash in dratan every tomb/prokion is loaded fast.(only error report after 5 hours merchant , but that's LC )

Edit: will post log files when crashes happend.

i havent recieved any errors yet in dratan but ive recieved more opening and closing merchant mode close to the arena for some reason it just piles me out the game al check the log file next time it happens and post it in for you

i have tested on my system getting in and out of dratan and every dungeon at least 5 times on a few servers (only tried theos 5 times to save money) and only got 1 error report out of all of them

i haven't had much Dratan crashes lately, but it takes longer to get to dratan with my wep glows on

1) Going into prokion of tomb of theos temples, - Didnt crash before, still dont now

2) Fighting in Dratan Castle siege - No crashes...laggy, but no crashes =o

3) Teleporting to the zone from another zone - no crashes now =) a few before hand

4) Just from running around. no crashes now either, before had a few =)


Yay for fixes!

dratan now takes 1 min less to load (still takes like 2-3 mins thoguh lol)
tried telein to mob combo, loaded very fast nocrash 0_o
tried telein into tomb while extrmely lagged outside of dratan, i acaully got in no crash...
tried telein out of dratan, literaly took over 3 mins but didint crash (and thats just goin to merac, dont wanna no how long it takes me to go to randol, but still a lot faster than having to reload the game due to crash =D)

it really seems the crashes have been brought to a minimual =)

So next step.. fix memory leak??

No more send error reports ...


*wakes up*

Dratan was never a problem for me just DCS and the error reports that go with it but i say that is something sorc do because i only ER when we r killing on a sorc So to fix that problem maybe u should look into sorc and see what sorc r doing if it is just them in general or r they doing something on purpose to make every1 ER But all in all Dratan is pretty good
