Title: psclient.exe not working!
Post by: rackmack1 on December 01, 2008, 11:47:20 pm
I have just got PlaneShift started
 
           Did all the crap like fix updater, Openall32.ddl, but now I am stuck at

       ' Somthing Unexpected Happened in PlaneShift Steel Blue
         Details: EXEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION at 05401840

                Would you like to save a diognostic file?  Yes   No'
   I have tried to put the .dmp file into an email to Lanerel, but it won't work. I have Vista, and I hate it when stuff like this happens. I have looked in the Bug Tracker, nothing. Anyone with any sugestions, I would greatly thank you!

Uhmm...when does this happen exactly?  Are you like casting a spell, or deciding what occupation your parents are, or trying to load tutorial world?

I'm asking if you even get a login screen.  How far exactly do you get before it crashes?

The second I try and run the .exe. IT pops up, black screen, and says that.

Go ahead and post your system specifications on here.  Also I want to know which version of Vista you're using.

Are you using Vista Home Basic, Home Premium, or Business or what?  Also do you have Aero turned on?

Come to think of it, this is for a laptop, so that can probably do it.  I have gotten it to work on a laptop using an X1400, but if your X1250 isn't even working then I don't know what can be done.

OK now I'm confused.  Are you even on a laptop to begin with?

It's okay, but I still need some help, and I am running out of ideas. I am almost giving up, but I want to play badly, and I am willing to wait as long as I can get a final answer to what my problem is.

When you get the message to create the dump file, click on No and tell us what dll it crashes on.  I don't know how to do this in Vista.

One of you mentioned an ATI card. Did you check out http://hydlaa.com/smf/index.php?topic=32557.0 ?

That problem is on world loading.  This one can't even make it to the login screen, so disabling Vertex Buffer Object might not do anything.  I am wondering if it is just outdated ATI drivers since he's claiming the splash screen doesn't even show.
