spontaneous "Please Wait" window

Post by piman »

it will spontaneously show up and I can't move or anything. It stays there until I have to quit the game. I dont really even need to do anything, it pops up just randomly.

What internet connection do you have? sounds like you have a latency issue.

And for the non-technically-minded of you, that means you lag a lot ;P

I had a similar issue over the weekend. A couple of times I got the please wait and had to relog.

On both occasions, my connection had died.

Had a similar problem once before and, when I reconnected, Ryzom continued, but not this time.

It does sound like it could be a connectivity issue.

If it happens again, look at the network screen (press N) and check the connction status. It will probably say "FS Lost". That's what I was getting.

We could do with a handy 'Retry connection' option somewhere in game! :)

A lot of folk had a couple of big lags lately. Ask ingame to see if its you or the game servers! You may not have any problems afterall.

I just think that after patch 2 it is displayed a lot faster when the lag is occuring. So the mobs wont worm-hole spawn in your lap without warning, but with one (please wait) that makes me treble whenever it comes up.

Hmmmm, lets make fun of it.
Please wait.... The rest that Nevrax is not showing!

Please wait while we explode your source.
Please wait for the cloppers to team up on you.
Please wait, your progress into PR is getting too easy.
Please wait, fudging degrades, you are getting too wealthy.
Please wait while we are reducing gameplay
Please wait in Klients like all other idiots
Please wait, out of cheese error, reboot universe.
Please wait, or no, dont, log and go to bed, you addict!

When this happens next time, press n to bring up your network connection box, then expand it by clicking on the title bar. It should say "fs lost" on the last line. Now click on you mailbox button. This should reset the connection and you should see it change from fs lost to probe and sync. If this doesn't result in connected status in about 20 secs, you have a problem with your isp.

That makes no sense. It can still be the game servers...
