LeftyLinda Posted April 14, 2019 Share Posted April 14, 2019 Has there been any progress on resolving the issue with all the random crashes every time we try to TP? I'm having to use a primitive viewer and I'd really like to get back to normal. As if I ever have a "normal". (-; Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rasterscan Posted April 14, 2019 Share Posted April 14, 2019 Not here. 6 crashes today in 3 hours. I made the mistake of wanting a little sail on the blake sea. This games not worth playing anymore it is utterly unstable charging money for this trite feebleness is a cheek. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ethan Paslong Posted April 14, 2019 Share Posted April 14, 2019 for me the tip made by @LittleMe Jewell to increase the bandwith to the max seems to have helped a lot, didn't crash at all today yet (20.35 H now....) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've only crashed on TP 3 times since I made that change a few days ago - and performance was pretty yuck overall just before each of those times. Before anyone increases their bandwidth, they probably should make sure they have a good enough internet connection to handle it -- use a network speed test website, check your speed to Phoenix, AZ, which is where the servers are.

Cindy Evanier Posted April 14, 2019 Share Posted April 14, 2019 I can confirm it works. Since LittleMe and Ethan increased their bandwidth, I haven't had a TP crash at all 👼 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Selene Gregoire Posted April 14, 2019 Share Posted April 14, 2019 Increasing my bandwidth makes no difference. I'm on FiOS, 100mbps. https://frontier.com/shop/internet/fios-internet 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeftyLinda Posted April 14, 2019 Author Share Posted April 14, 2019 I've switched to Cool VL Viewer and only crashed once in the last week. My bandwidth has been maximized for months. I tried Singularity again today and crashed in 30 minutes, just staying in one sim. Grr. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The issue that is affecting many users is being disconnected during a teleport. That is not the same thing as crashing. When your viewer just suddenly shuts down of its own accord, that's crashing. When you are being logged out, that's not crashing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeftyLinda Posted April 14, 2019 Author Share Posted April 14, 2019 Wow - I had no idea the terminology was so important. I know the difference between crashing and being logged off. I think everyone understood my point, and the issue that's been ongoing for a few weeks now. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whirly Fizzle Posted April 14, 2019 Share Posted April 14, 2019 (edited) If you are using Singularity, Singularity has a totally separate bug that causes disconnects every 15-20 minutes. They have a fix for that bug in the latest nightly viewer, which you can get from: https://virtual-nexus.xyz/down/This is a totally different bug to the TP disconnect bug all viewers are suffering from.

Lindal Kidd Posted April 14, 2019 Share Posted April 14, 2019 You have to ditch that user name and get an alt. Since I am a lefty, and named Lindal, there is only a tiny L standing between us and total confusion. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeftyLinda Posted April 14, 2019 Author Share Posted April 14, 2019 (edited) Whirly, my antivirus protection thinks this Singularity installation contains malware. Any reassurance you can offer? Edited April 14, 2019 by LeftyLinda Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BelindaN Posted April 14, 2019 Share Posted April 14, 2019 I was on for about four hours up to 12.00SLT today (Sunday). I made over a dozen tps without any problems, whether it be crashing or being logged out. 😛 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go to http://www.singularityviewer.org/ Click the " Test Builds (w/Animesh)" link top left to be taken to the same downloads page. It's not unusual for any SL viewer to be flagged by antivirus software but if you are worried about it you can ask in the Singularity Viewer group inworld or report it on their JIRA: https://singularityviewer.atlassian.net/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't turn it off, since it restarts when it detects a threat. I asked in the Singularity help group, and they suggested I reformat my hard drive and install WIn 7 Not that helpful - 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BelindaSalt Posted April 16, 2019 Share Posted April 16, 2019 No problem tping since we came back, until Ellie's last tp last night which logged her out with the usual collateral. Relogged to test and all ok except the alpha which was one outfit behind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
