  • 0. Can't Create/Join specific character only   04/24/2012 12:09:59 AM PDT
Hello,
As the topic states I'm having trouble creating/joining games. This issue only occurs with one of my characters, the others can create/join games without a problem. This issue has been ongoing over several days now. This is not the typical 'Failed to join game' issue, and this is not the typical 'realm restriction' issue.

Randomly, my level 18 paladin appears to be wearing his alternate set of weapons (weapon switch). Whenever I attempt to Join or Create any games, the loading screen appears. It looks like I'm about to successfully enter the game (the door begins to open!). However, one of two messages will appear and I will be returned to the the chat channel: "Failed to Join Game" or "Your connection has been interrupted".

Again, I can create / join games successfully with any of my other characters. This character has not been allowed to create/join for several days. I am aware that for whatever reason, sometimes characters will be 'flagged' and will 'fail the join' even games that they 'created' for a period of time and the solution is to wait it out. HOWEVER, this has been an ongoing issue with only this character _over several days_.

Could someone please take a look at this and tell me what is going on? Despite being my lowest level character, this is also my favorite character and quite valuable as it is a low-level-dueler and took a lot of time/effort to build. Thanks.

Rauko ,

The character in question checks out fine for me when tested, I see no problems with it at all.

First, thank you for your response!

But I am still having this issue! Were you able to actually join / create a game with the character? I am still unable to. I can create/join without a problem from any other character. The character in question is Champion Ebonics level 18 Paladin Expansion Ladder character.

The loading screen appears.
The door opens.
I get "Your connection has been interrupted message".
I'm back in chat.

I'm also confused why he is showing his alternate weapons. He should be showing the cleglaw sword and a paladin specific shield, not his red javelins/tower.

I have browsed around a lot and cannot find a solution to this specific issue! Please help! Thank you.

Rauko ,

I figured out earlier which character you were talking about. I moved it onto one of my test accounts and was able to create a game just fine. I moved it back afterwards. If his items are switched, you must have have switched them with the W key or someone else is accessing him and doing it.

Thank you.

I'm still having the problem! It occurs both when trying to join or create a game. I've just tried to join / create about 4 random games and every time I get the 'Your connection has been interrupted' message and am booted back to the chat section. I'm afraid that if I continue trying I will see a "your connection has been temporarily restricted from this realm" message on my account. I really do not want that!

Again, I can create / join games with any other character. Except the one I want to play. Please help! If moving it onto another account worked then I am wholly willing to create a different account to play from as long as I get my character back.

Give it another try now. I restored it from a recent backup taken when you were apparently able to use it ok. A few items may be different on this version but that can't be helped.

I can see that it's different because he's displaying his main weapons. However, I still get the "your connection has been interrupted" message =(.

edit: And now its showing his alternate ones again >.<

edit: WOW third try this time I was actually able to create a game. Whatever you did, thank you!!!
