Dear all,
Yesterday (about 2014.11.21 02:00 GMT) I played with my rogue in Planar tombs 1 (in party).
Everything was OK, then I got a DC.
More precisely everything froze and ping was counting up continuously .
This is unfortunately "quite common" nowadays.
I usually do not wait for about 120k ping = 2 mins (when client declares the DC, but close Chrome, restart log in and continue/start again, etc.
BUT Yesterday evening (more precisely 9 hours ago):
- I got "Oops! Your graphics have failed to initialize! You probably need to update your video card driver!" at 74% of loading.
- Did happen in the past (but maybe with other error at 75%). Reload Chrome or rarely restart Windows solved the problem for sure.
I did all of these, no joy.
- I uninstalled Chrome, reinstalled Chrome, I downloaded game again.
- I installed the lastest video drivers (btw it was quite old but I did not experience any problem with it).
- I checked chrome://gpu, checked other WebGL tests. Everything seems fine, but Arcane Legends states my graphics failed to initialize.
- I enabled nacl, and disable gpu-blacklist otherwise my GPU does not have a chance to work (--enable-nacl --ignore-gpu-blacklist)
The help (suggest to install the newest driver) did not help, because 10 hours ago a driver from 2009 was OK, now a driver from 2013 is not :-/ .
So I do not really understand what happened 9-10 hours ago. I am a computer literant guy, so: Update to Windows 7 or later, I will refuse, because it was working well with this system for more than a year (when I started Arcane Legends).
My system:
- Acer Aspire 4937G (laptop Core2duo T6500@2,1GHz 4Gb RAM, nVidia Geforce G105M video 512Mb RAM)
- WindowsXP 32bit Professional SP3
- VGA (now): nVidia package version: 307.83; driver version: 6.14.13.783, Driver date: 1-31-2013
- VGA (previously): date from 2009
- Currently I have Chrome version: 39.0.2171.65 m
If somebody has even a faint hint, let me know.
Is it possible to switch on debug log somehow? I mean, like: account.spacetimestudios.com/arcanelegends/?loglevel=99 or /?debug=1
Maybe I can track down my specific problem in this way.
Now I will check
- with another computer (much slower CPU, weaker GPU, but Win7 opsys),
- chech overall system consistency in this machine,
- I swich to Linux in this computer and test if a kind of hardware failure I have...
