Noticed in " Save Carnies from Praetorians " mission from Unai Kemen, where you are supposed to be rescuing Carnival of Light that the mission uses Carnival of Shadows NPCs.

I would say the issue is not related to the game install as the /netgraph results indicate you are experiencing periodic drops in bandwidth. It could be a router or modem issue or connectivity between your PC and the network. I included some suggestions in my previous post, were able to try any of those?

It doesn't have to be a red bar in /Netgraph to be an issue: from the wiki: Interpreting the netgraph: Spike shape: The height of the bar representing server ping time in milliseconds. Short is good, long is bad. Green bars represent received packets. Short = normal/good Long = low bandwidth. Yellow bars represent retransmitted packets. Short = ISP/Router issues Red bars represent dropped packets Short = ISP/Router issues Blocks of Red = Interrupted communications

Added PvP and 2 Groups

So based on your description of the /netgraph results it seems you are experiencing periodic loss of bandwidth. It isn't dropped packets, or a loss of connection. If you are on WiFi, I would try switching to a wired connection and see if that helps. Check and make sure that any wired connections are in good condition and securely connected. If you have your own Router, you could temporarily bypass it and plug directly into the ISPs modem/router. If none of these seem to help, I would request, especially if it is not fairly new, a replacement modem from your Provider, most providers will not charge anything for this, and many times an older modem may have issues interacting with newer equipment on their network.

Added 50+ Rikti in RWZ. I did not include Sewer/Abandoned Sewer or PVP zones because I simply ran out of Room, Croatoan and Cimmeroran enemies are unique to the those Zones. Still a work in progress, trying to keep it to 1 page is a challenge.

In the works, just takes a bit to collect and organize that much info.

If I recall the Villain that crossed over was a Brute named "Bubbles" on Virtue, became kind of a Celebrity.

I would try using the " Verify Files " option in the HC Launcher, it may be that you have a corrupt version of the zone that the game can't load.

I would try Verifying the files, it is an option on the HC Launcher as well as Tequila. Keep in mind Tequila is no longer actively supported but the HC Launcher is. Just click on the three dots and select Verify from the Menu on HC Launcher. You'll need to look for the options on Tequila, I no longer have it installed so can't give details.

That to me indicates that the issue is pretty close to home, before the path to Reunion or the other Servers has diverged. It might be worth a call to your ISP to see if they can see anything from their end, you may be able to have them move your service to a fresh port, as the equipment is similar to most other ethernet equipment and bad ports happen, or issue you a new Modem/Router, I know Spectrum will give you a replacement Modem on request.

Make sure you are installing the game directly on your hard drive, say C:games/homecoming, this avoids windows permission issues. You may need to disable AV during install and then whitelist it.

Mapserver issues are usually client side network issues, sometimes restarting your modem and router will correct it. In some cases it isn't your equipment rather a connection somewhere on the way to the servers that is creating the issue. One quick way to check that is to create a character on Reunion if you play mostly on the NA Servers, or visa versa if you play on Reunion, so that your path to the game is different, and see if the issue still occurs. Setting up a VPN to use to connect has solved the problem in some cases. Installing Wireshark can let you isolate the hops your connection takes on it's way to the servers and identify where the issue is. the IP is 51.161.76.201, you can also try pinging this address, at a command prompt type "ping -t 51.161.76.201' without quotes and hit enter, if this connection is not reliable, you will mapserve.

"i'm on a mac and used launchCat without issue for about two weeks. the last few times i tried logging in. It completes the loading bar, then displays "Creating holding area 100%" and gets stuck there. any thoughts ?" "My launchcat was on the desktop, I moved it into applications and now all works fine. At least for now. Dunno why it worked fine last couple of days but for now I am good so *shrug*' Quotes are from another thread, worth a try?

That was it, odd but I have had the new tool installed forever and didn't realize I wasn't using it's version, lol. It's always something.

Remember hearing that Rookie and Silent Sentinel had been swapped between the zones but can't locate Silent Sentinel and VidiotMaps does not seem to reflect the change, I'm pretty sure I'm running the newest version and checked and it shows up to date through City Mod Installer.

If you could use in game help from a player it would help to know what shard you play on and when you are usually on.

Are you using Tequila or the Homecoming Launcher?
