Re: loading screen goes up to 90% and stops

@proxos666

no, I cannot confirm that. I can't access my router. Either way, the connection is not the problem here! How can it be? Firewall may be the problem, but not anything to do with router/modem/ internet. I've told you, a friend played the game from the same connection point. Meaning the ports are not the problem either.

There has to be some other problem here.

Ok back to looking again ...... 🤔

@TheSkiv

So you cant access the router/modem

Have you tried playing both wireless and wired to the modem ?

If you open a command prompt as administrator and type again

ping -t 64.233.184.147

leave this running and fire up the game launcher and try to play (yes I know it will get to 90%) , is there any significant change to the pings appearing ?

if there isn't will follow a different line of testing

@proxos666

I cant connect to the modem directly. Same goes for the router. Its just some round thingy with a single wire coming out of it. I need a technician to operate it. -_- Our house is a special case since we live out of town, away from the regular ISP zones.

@TheSkiv

Ok tracking

Can you run that test with the ping when the game is at the 90% load

Just want to check what the connection is doing at that point

can move on from there

@proxos666

So I started pinging right before pressing PLAY in character selection screen. It got to 90% on ping 10-11, i waited another several seconds. Doesn't seam like there is any problem here, I think.

@TheSkiv

Yes it looks fine

Whilst you have the command prompt open

type

sfc /scannow

see if it finds errors while I think on what is best moving forward with this for you

@proxos666

ok, so apparently it found some problems.

@TheSkiv

While I look at the logs

in the command prompt run this command

dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth

if it starts let it run

@proxos666

the restore operation completed successfully. 🙂

@TheSkiv

Run the sfc command again to be sure

@TheSkiv

I have to get going shortly (11pm here) and have to get up at 5:30am

Now that DISM has been run check for all windows updates and update windows

there is a high chance windows update was broken prior to DISM running.

@proxos666

ok, so i ran it again and it fixed some corrupt files successfully. Afterwards i restarted my pc and checked for updates, none were found. Now running the sfc again to make sure it will simply run successfully without finding any corruptions. Gonna check the game afterwards again.

@TheSkiv

Good sfc was able to correct this time

I have to go for the night i'm afraid at worst we corrected some issues for certain.

@proxos666

Sure! Good night 🙂 The game is not fixed yet, though. 🙂

So! Any more ideas on what I can do?

I've read online and apparently my problem is similar to some people. Apparently the character is in a stronghold of some sort and its a known issue for low level characters that its stuck after character select. Mine is however never been in game yet! ☹️

I really want to fix this annoying bug! Gotta understand where its coming from! 

@TheSkiv

I am aware of that issue, have actually posted about it on here 🤭

I actually didn't suggest it as it normally affects before the character screen

Glad you read about that then.....

upside you got some component corruption fixed in windows

@proxos666

yep! ^^ Thanks for that, mate! 🙂
