gemek Posted April 12, 2015 Share Posted April 12, 2015 i have been sometimes experiencing this issue, it's like this: at random moment game changes to a black screen. If I open up the task manager it says that the program is 'not responding' and I have to force-close it. Last time it happened when i was hitting Dark Falz in his first form. So far experienced this issue only on character slot 1, maybe because I mostly play in that slot. Biggest minuses of this situation are: that you leave your teammates in a disadvantage, and what's more important the EXP, weapons and other things aren't saved, so when you comeback your character will be in the state before connecting to that session you had the Black Screen of Death. How the Black screen looks? ALL pixels turn black, though the BackGround Music will still play. Additional info: Guildcard: 42148568 Time when issue occured: ~20 minutes before I wrote the post. TTF counter was at ~31 minutes. Quote Link to comment
Soly Posted April 12, 2015 Share Posted April 12, 2015 That's weird.. i have never experienced something like that... have you noticed something to be "the same" the times this has happened? Quote Link to comment
Cyane Posted April 12, 2015 Share Posted April 12, 2015 Do you have skins in game? How good your internet connection? Quote Link to comment
Judgment Posted April 12, 2015 Share Posted April 12, 2015 It happens to me as well Quote Link to comment
Cyane Posted April 12, 2015 Share Posted April 12, 2015 It's an old game too ;/ stuffs like this tend to happen, if it happens way too often then something is wrong, make sure your video/sound drives are updated too. Quote Link to comment
gemek Posted April 12, 2015 Author Share Posted April 12, 2015 some answers: 1. no idea what that "the same" means. 2. on character slot 1 i have in use /npc 3 (on slot 3 i got /npc 5 but it doesn't matter). 3. my internet connection is surely good enough to play the game, never seen the connection to break (besdes someone turning off the router) 4. as far as I know my Video card drivers are updated but unsure about sound. (though none of these really caused any problems in any other programs) Quote Link to comment
Soly Posted April 12, 2015 Share Posted April 12, 2015 With "the same" i mean things that you noticed to be similar every time... for example... a program updating when the crash happens... atm i don't really know how to describe it lol ... kinda busy atm... Quote Link to comment
Cyane Posted April 12, 2015 Share Posted April 12, 2015 What Soly means might be if you are running something else when those things happen, maybe antivirus is updating or you are doing something else on the computer at that same time it happens. Quote Link to comment
gemek Posted April 13, 2015 Author Share Posted April 13, 2015 well, no. Game doesn't update after that and I haven't noticed anything suspicious Quote Link to comment
Soly Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 hmm.. well that's weird... you can always try a fresh install http://www.phantasystaronline.net/download/UltimaPsOBB_3.3.exe Quote Link to comment
