Cinos Field Posted April 3, 2019 Share Posted April 3, 2019 Just now, Fionalein said: The crashes are disconnects during teleports, if you now can explain me how client side graphics hardware can affect the connection I would be more than happy. I still doubt it is EEP connected, might be some bug uploaded to the simulators the same time EEP got deployed... My guess is it is preparation forthe "Going to the cloud" process where inter-simulator communication will need to change (and they can prematurely deploy the changes in their local net - IMHO anything that will work in the cloud should work in a local serverfarm as well) Well, it might be a timeout. SL waits to load things while you teleport and only actually releases you from the loading screen when there's something to show. If specific hardware occasionally fails to load the new skies (or such) the client might keep waiting until it reaches the maximum time and disconnects you. Speculation mainly, I don't know how the client is coded, but theoretically possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cinos Field Posted April 3, 2019 Share Posted April 3, 2019 (edited) You never load anywhere without at least the skybox and terrain present. At least I never have, over 12 years in SL. Edited April 3, 2019 by Cinos Field Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grabbing straws: We know eep skies are now asset fetches. This comes from inventory. While you teleport it's quite time sensative, we know this from animat's testing of his bikes Maybe there is some asset related issue during teleport where the sky to load isn't available Result disconnect. Not sure, but since I turned off skies, not a crash - so now to turn them on..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paragonfanfare Posted April 3, 2019 Share Posted April 3, 2019 6 hours ago, Cinos Field said: I would predict that it's a problem with some hardware. Presumably AMD since SL doesn't really like their stuff. Is anyone with Nvidia affected? As Fionalein stated, hardware shouldn't have any bearing, but to answer your question directly: I have Nvidia 1070it and it happens frequently to me, in both Firestorm and Singularity.

Whirly Fizzle Posted April 3, 2019 Share Posted April 3, 2019 There is a potential fix for the teleport disconnects that was rolled to all 3 RC servers today - BlueSteel, Magnum & LeTigre. Is anyone still able to reproduce the teleport disconnects when TPing between two RC regions? If all goes well with this potential fix, I expect it will be rolled to the main channel regions next Tuesday. NOTE! If you are a Singularity viewer user, there is another bug affecting Singularity that is causing a disconnect ~ every 15 minutes &/or teleport disconnects. This is a separate bug with a different cause to the one filed at BUG-226577 - TPs (Teleports) causing Grid Disconnects and grey screen QUITS Singularity have a proposed fix for this Singularity specific bug in their latest viewer build that can be downloaded here: https://virtual-nexus.xyz/down/ As far as I'm aware this Singularity fix will not fix the main TP disconnect bug that's affecting all viewers though. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sith Soulstar Posted April 4, 2019 Share Posted April 4, 2019 I know that, in all of my 12 years on SL combined, I have litterally never failed to teleport as much as in the last 2 weeks alone. This is absolutely a LL problem and they need to fix it or at least admit they have a problem because this really isn't funny any more. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They do know, Sith ... and support isn't ignoring but assuring THAT they are aware of it and working on it. Patience is asked. And if there is anything residents can think of info to LL that helps - aside of pouting just because - they will gladly take it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If all goes well with this potential fix, I expect it will be rolled to the main channel regions next Tuesday. Next Tue can't come fast enough. Every third TP is a failure today and while cancelling the TP does give the blocked message, I can no longer just repeat the TP and get it to work. Every freakin time it decides to act up, it totally freezes my avi - I can still cam and read notices and mess with other viewer windows, but the avi is frozen. The only fix is to either wait a minute or two for the disconnect notice or just close the viewer myself. I've had the TP screen enabled and disabled and that seems to make no difference -- though I am going to give 'derendering the sky' a try next. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chic Aeon Posted April 5, 2019 Share Posted April 5, 2019 YES. VERY VERY BAD and super frustrating. I relogged more today and yesterday than in the last five years I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was experiencing teleport timeout disconnects just a couple of days ago. It lasted two/three days and hasn't happened since day before yesterday. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ ETA: Forgot to mention I'm still on FS (64) 5.1.7.55786 Edited April 5, 2019 by Selene Gregoire Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LittleMe Jewell Posted April 5, 2019 Share Posted April 5, 2019 I derendered the sky and have had a TP failure since -- knock on wood. Makes for a somewhat boring SL view, but I'm only doing a hunt right now anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah unfortunately you're not the only one to report that.... It seems the fix on the RC regions isn't working Edit to add: If you get a TP disconnect between 2 RC regions again, please can you give the following information so Lindens can look at the server logs: Account name affected. Start region & destination region Viewer used (don't use Singularity - it has another disconnect bug that's just complicating matters). Date/SLT time of disconnect.

I figured that out the first time it happened to me after seeing so many others have the issue before it ever started for me. The "you've been logged out of SL" message made it kind of obvious.
