Getting unlimited error messages....

[barinax]

I am a long time SEQ user and thought I would give MYSeq a try. I have installed the .NET 1.1 framework and MYSeq in the \wseq directories structure as specified in the "Installing MYseq" thread. I have verified that the maps are in the /myseq/maps directory.

My setup is as follows. I am running both the server and client on a WinXP Home box that fully updated with SP1 and all the subsequest MS patches. I am also running with the most current offsets as listed in the May 14th post in the NEWS forum.

When I run the client and connect to the server, I can see the connection go active in the server and get a PID, but the client gets error after error. I am listing the error below. I get these errors over and over until I click "Quit" to cancel the MYseq client.

I have tried deleting and re-downloading/installing the program as well as .NET 1.1 with the same results.

Anyone ever seen this one before?

Thanks for your help.

[cavemanbob]

Did you click the go button before your toon was fully logged in?

[barinax]

No, my toon was fully in the Plane of Disease. Once he was in the zone, I launched the server then the client and clicked "Go".

[cavemanbob]

Oh and make sure you're using todays offsets, otherwise I'll have to think about it for a bit.

[barinax]

Caveman,

Thanks for the responses. I am currently using the offsets that are in the "NEWS" forum for the May 14th patch.

Thanks again.

[cavemanbob]

Grab the may 15 offsets, the ones from yesterday won't work anymore.

[Wizzard005]

I am having the same problem, I have the updated offsets and it will run fine on the same computer if I am running eq windows or so.. but when i try to run the server one 1 computer and then the client on my other computer I keep getting errors till i click stop.. I have two Windows XP Pro computers with .net installed. Both computers will run myseq when I run it local on the computer in a eq window. Humm can anyone help :)

[Phat_Lewts]

Hello I run 3 win98 boxes and i have a problem with the client crashing. Sometimes it will work for hours other times it crashes 10 times in 10 mins. Also i have tried rebboting all machines restarting server multiple times and restarting client.

The only thing that seems to make it work is if i continually start client then press go then get error then press quit then start client Etc I can get it to work some times the very next time or sometimes up to 40 client restarts.

I will get the error message tonight at home and edit this message.

Thanks

Phat_lewtz

[Phat_Lewts]

Still waiting on a reply

Is there any fixes for this above

Phat

[cavemanbob]

I have no idea why it's throwing that exception, nor have I been able to replicate it. It may be a limitation of the video driver that you're currently running though, if you can try to update it to the latest version. That's really the only thing that I can imagine would cause DrawLine to throw an overflow exception.

[Phat_Lewtz]

WOOT thanks CMB ill check it out

Phat

[BrianW]

hmm i was having the same problem as you were, but after i looked at the myseqserver.ini i noticed some spaces after the memory offsets, deleted the spaces, saved and now i'm no longer having that problem, might try it and see if it works for you also, doesnt hurt trying :-)
either that or delete it and unzip the file again, one of those 2 was what made it work for me

[Phat_Lewtz]

I gave both of those ideas a shot without luck tho here is the error message again in case it has changed its to technical 4 me.

hmm
did u get the newest versions of MySEQ? i know the ones on the CVS arent the newest ones, download the ones from http://seq.sourceforge.net/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=3334 and see what happens, i've been working perfectly for the past 24 hours, very great program indeed :-)

[Moose]

I am getting the same over flow error that everyone else is getting. I re-installed the NEET framework 1.1 a few times and the eq map program a few times. I re-loaded that maps in the folders too. I had it working a few times for about 5 minutes but then the map screen crashes to a white screen with a big red X. Funny that I was in Nadox yesterday and it had no map but it did have a black screen with a bunch of blue and green dots on it for creatures...until it gave me the over flow error that everone else is getting. I even re-copied the memory offsets to see if that was it.

Has anyone found a solution to this yet? It seems like a really cool program and not some scam. I will donate some money if I can get it to work so that I know that it's for real. Thank you.

James

[Phat_Lewts]

Thanks guys for all the good suggestions unfortunatly none have worked yet.

It must be a simple error im overlooking i will try and give a complete account of what happens.

Firstly the hardware is 2 x win98 machines
EQ machine is p3 450 and Myseq Machine is p3 400
these computers have nothing loaded in memory when im playing
they are connected through a 10meg huB to another machine that is a cable gateway.

I can run 3 everquests at once with no prob as i have eq installed on all 3 machines. I have net framework 1.1 from link on board here on both machines and the mseq from the same links.

the 2 machines each have 512 meg ram and nvidia m64 video cards now with the latest drivers. machines have 30 gig hdds

I fire up game then alt tab and fire up server then switch back to game. If I press go on client when im in just about any town it works completely and fully.

I press stop gate to western wastes run up the tunnel so im out in the open then press go on client and it seems like i have a 1 in 30 chance of it working correctly.

If im lucky to get it to work it displays all my alerts a nice map and all the names down one side from this point it is purely tempromental

I have had it stay on for up to 1 hour and i have had it crash to red X with in 5 seconds and anything in between.
This is in westernwastes

Now as I said before I once helped a guildie kill corrupt seahorse for her epic and it worked perfectly in kedge for hours.

So as suggested get new ww map nope still no go

I will close open the client as many as 30 times before i get it to work again its random

As I was typing a though just occured to me I will go try this at home tonight and see

Normal method =p3 450 eq + p3 400 Mseq
New idea = p3 400 eq +p3 450 myseq

Lol i hope i remember

I am open to any ideas

And I dont even care if there is no maps as long as I can see my alerts and head toward them : )

Thanks all

Phat

[BrianW]

what versions of the programs are you using? and you did install in the correct folders right? (which i hope you did)
versions are
myseqserverc 1.9b
MyShowEQ version 1.12
then make sure u have 5-15 offsets (should have)

try and see if u can use the Client on the same computer with server and set it to 127.0.0.1, if it works on that, then you know its a network/computer problem

[Phat_Lewts]

Hey thanks again

Well i got the latest versions of the thread so thats not it

have the latest offsets so thats not it

But the did you unpack into the correct directories may be my prob

I dont know what they are but here is how mine looks

Machine 1

C:/myseq = Client
C:/myseq/maps = maps

C:/server = server

Machine 2

c:/mseq/myseq = client
c:/mseq/myseq/maps = maps
c:/myseqserver = server

as you can see they are both different
My question is

Do you have to put it in a predefined directory ?

This could be it but I am haveing my 5th wedding anniversary weekend away for 5 days starting tonight so i would be able to try

But sounds great thankyou

Phat

[BrianW]

directories are the problem

make sure they are as below

Machine 1 -(Computer used to play EverQuest)

C:\wseq\myseq = Client
C:\wseq\myseq\maps = maps
C:\wseq\myseqserverc = server

Machine 2 -(Assuming this is the computer you dont play EQ on but just want to view the maps on)

C:\wseq\myseq = Client
C:\wseq\myseq\maps = maps

make sure they look exactly like that, and if that doesnt solve your problem, its something else

I'm willing to bet that this was your problem, and changing the directory structures to follow these, will fix it and have you up and running

[cavemanbob]

That directory setup is fine, I'm really stumped as to what's going on to cause this problem though. Next time you try it look at your hub/switch/router and see if there's data going between the 2 machines. Otherwise as was suggested in a different thread it might be some weird syncronization issue, the cause of which is currently unknown...

[BrianW]

hmm ok so maybe not the directories, but wouldnt hurt to put them like that to see what happens

besides that, give more details... like Router type, if you have Norton Internet Security or a different firewall, might be a blocked port or something
