[Merged Threads] Persistent crashing, every game

[NighTShoW]

I do not think it is GProxy. (I am using Gproxydll.mix)

The problem can be solved by uninstall wc3 and re-install it again, no crashes afterward so far.

Did you apply the 1.27b patch after reinstalling ?

I think the problem is MH fogclick detector. I just removed all those files from my War3 folder. Ill check now if it crashses anymore

i deleted mh detector files and now it works

Well, first, you cannot use fog click detector in game, second, I was not using it when the game crashed, so I do not think this is the problem.... anyways, I reinstalled the game and, at least untill now, everything is ok.

It doesn't matter if you can use it in game or not, it only matters that you had the files installed in your wc3 folder. The reason it started working again is because the reinstall deleted those files, which were causing the game to crash.

@G0LIATH_05 in order for us (or blizzard etc) to properly assess he issue , we would need much more data than just 2 disconnects. Try what null suggested and/or when you install, try another directory. If it doesn't fix the problem then come back and we can look at other possible options

@EdgeOfChaos is the problem still occurring?

@edgeofchaos

Got it. Thanks.

Also, why I was wondering is because I've seen his name tossed around forum a bit. Does he help with developing new maps or something?

Oh wow, this just happened.

Yeah, it matters, and that is why I warned you. And no, I did not have the files on my folder, but as I said, reinstalling fixed the problem.

I did not try to play with gproxy again... I said "fixed" but I only tested with entconnect, so idk if the problem can be related to gproxy, I will test later.

Additionally, the first attempt to install the patch (through bnet useast) failed, then I downloaded manually and installed...maybe there is something related to it. After that I reinstalled and applied manually the patch. Everything is ok, untill now.

I got it working now. I think my problem was that I had the Map Size Limit dll thing still installed, to allow maps over 8mb. And obviously it's unneeded anymore, I removed it and everything's good now. It sounds like FCD also does it. So I would just remove any unneeded .mix files from your WC3 folder during this patch. GProxy is confirmed to work now.

(and while FCD is illegal ingame, it hasn't even worked for like.. a year now, so it doesn't really matter)

So in conclusion:

Re-installing and patching solves the crashing. So the main problem, has to be a file located in the WC3 folder which causes these ''crashes'', and from what I see, it is the ''8MB bypass file'' which EdgeOfChaos noted.

Since the OP got his problem fixed, I think this thread should be locked and processed now. But from what I said above, I think that should be noted for the future.

TL;DR; If you experience this issue, remove any third-party program from your WC3 folder and try again.

If does not work, post a new thread.

Processing.
