im sure many of you suffer from this nice little bug. you ticket into fairhaven, and then, youre crashed to desktop ya??
ok, here is how to prevent this crash pretty much 100% of the time
1- once you clicked to use your ticket,
2- alt-tab out of game(if you have another open window that is not minimized this works)
or ctrl-alt-del to force yourself to the desktop by opening task manager, then close task manager
3- wait until you hear the town music start to play, then reenter ryzom
hope this alleviates some of the frustration of going to fairhaven by ticket

When did this start? I used a ticket to get to Fairhaven last night and had no problems at all.

)

I crash about once each 2 weeks. But then I have sound completely disabled.
I TP a lot to FH as well.

I crash every time I tp to a Tryker city. Other ports are fine in Tryker, just the cities. This is very frustrating and find I spend less time there because of it and find myself going to other lands to use packers and such. I will try this tonight and see if it works. And you are right, if it works it's alot less of a pain than restarting twice.

I crash when approaching Yrkanis either on foot or on a mount, practically every time, this has only started since the last major patch though.
To avoid this, I stop short of the city, and get a sandwitch from the fridge, make a drink, do some dishes, then come back to the game, this is long enough for the CPU to catch up to what ever the game is doing at the time, then I am fine.

This would be funny if it wasn't so true...
I could guarentee a crash if I approached FH by water. Land's End especially. I would see my system grind to a halt, my hard drive access light flicker franticly and stay on solid. If I pause my travels just as this activity starts and wait for my system to settle down I could venture further.
I turned my game settings to Low and I was able to get around pretty much okay. Unfortunately with the latest patch I have had more crashes. I think its the same deal but now that I have a mount to race around I'm getting in the same windfall of cpu crunching and hard drive spinning and then *boom*, CTD situation even faster. I hope that Thursday's patch will correct some of this.

Hmm I find it odd that one of the recent patches cleared up my OH GOD NOT TRYKERLANDS lag! *faints*. I have had a few Tryker alts that have sat patiently on the back burner until I just recently caught one of the "World Tour" groups heading from *insert this week/month' s trip starting and ending locations here* that happened to End in Trykerlands, on my Fyros main.
I thought well...I need the tickets...time to get out my trusty swimsuit...I got some swimming to do. I hit everything from one corner to the other, getting all tickets except Fairhaven. Then I broke down and had to go to Fairhaven to sell stuff. So...I set myself heading towards the town on auto and went to the frig and grabbed a soda and some snack foods and by the time I got back I was almost in town, I turned a bit to adjust my swim and then I was there...and I almost fainted....NO LAG!
I have sound on, shadows OFF (for me they are STILL bar codes), clouds off, ground clutter off when traveling (so I can see that Cute that is hiding behind the ground clutter, as well as a little bit of lag prevention), I have 512 ram (would have more, but don't have the "extra" money right now) and I haven't noticed my harddrive wining at ALL in Ryzom other than when I load during TPing or during respawning.
