Title: Connection lost.....
Post by: Tzar on January 24, 2012, 03:36:33 am
Some feedback plz Meow :?: cmp :?: chadz  :?:

Anyone plz.. its getting downright retarded  :mad:

Seems like alot of players have the same problem with no clue what it is..

Happens 12/10 times a day atm its pretty much unplayable for some of us because u keep gettin dc´ed

Internet browser bf3 starcraft 2 other games ect ect works fine

But cRPG seems to lose all connection to the servers for 7/9 sec then they come back up an you lost multi score ect ect its really annoying

So far no response from a dev yet maybe you havent noticed the threads this is why i posted it here.

Please help us figure this out, it robs you of your fun to be doing well and suddenly lose connection. Has never happened in any other game I play online.

Haven't noticed this on NA1, maybe its a problem with the EU1 server?

I get this more frequently at home where the internet connection isn't so fast. But here at my house at uni it's happens maybe once in a 3-4 hours of play time.
Title: Re: Connection lost.....
Post by: Meow on January 24, 2012, 03:45:16 pm
It's hard to tell without knowing everyones location but what you guys who get this can do is:
In windows do start ---> run (or just enter it in the search bar in your start menu) ---> ping -t 46.4.114.45

And let that run while you are playing.
The moment you get disconnected you taskswitch out an check the window that is constantly pinging the ip.
If it show any irregularities in the ping time or even timeouts during the last minute or something, we can be pretty sure it's a routing problem.
This is also indicated by the fact that you do not have those probs on NA.
You can also try some of the clan servers althought odds are some of them will be in the same data center as the official ones.

Sadly if it is a routing problem the only real option is to contact your ISP and tell them about the problem, then hope they do something about it.

i don't get disconnections but at the evening my ping goes crazy and my server browser show up with half eu with normal ping (30-50) and other ones are worse than NA (100-300) .
sometimes i need to refresh a lot to have my normal ping , i tried all , antimalaware , calling isp insulting that bitch , plug out ethernet and plug in again ,  disable services and process.....dunno what is going on :/
maybe is just my crappy fastweb provider.

Post by: Overdriven on January 24, 2012, 08:11:19 pm
Virgin media in Brighton by any chance? Because mine does the same  :P

That's going to be provider based. For instance in my area it was an issue with the fact virgin media signed up a shit ton of people but didn't actually have the infrastructure to handle it. So at peak times, even though my internet was supposed to be 20Mbps (usually 18 during day time) it would drop below 1Mbps. Also would get massive packet loss and huge pings. But the differing pings between servers probably means there's an issue along the line somewhere.

Title: Re: Connection lost.....
Post by: Meow on January 24, 2012, 09:20:27 pm
Well that's something but it's for sure connection related then.
Either ISP probs or actually your firewall blocking something for what reason ever.
Hard to tell, maybe you got some firewall logs and can actually check what triggers the block?

Ya I find my self disconnecting at the minimum 5 times a day from the NA servers. (Mainly siege NA 2 because that is what i play on) and it is very annoying, especially when i got a nice x5 going :( But when I'm in game my ping is in the 30-36 range.
Title: Re: Connection lost.....
Post by: Taser on January 26, 2012, 06:27:23 am
Ahh I used to have this all the time with older patches. I hated it. join a game and lose connection with no internet issues.. Then rejoin and lose it 5 seconds later. Then rejoin and yay it works.. for 40 minutes then lose connection again. GTX game.

It was fixed for me once the game was patched again. So *shrug*. Sorry guys.

Post by: Meow on February 10, 2012, 05:04:48 pm
As i told you, this is a connection issue unrelated to the servers.

The only possible way to "fix" this is to move the servers to another data center which will not happen.
Also it would not guarantee that the connection to that one would be any better for you.

Hosting a server in your area will for sure help with this  but that would need to be a player hosted server since i doubt the donations make up for more official machines.

Also you can call your ISP and make them aware of the routing trouble to our IPs and you might get lucky and they try to solve the problem.

Post by: Dravic on February 10, 2012, 05:11:34 pm
This must be related to EU crpg servers.

I got those stupid disconnects, too, but what is REALLY strange, if (after it disconnects me) I get to the "Internet" filter in server search, the only servers shown are Asia and one of NA servers. Then I need to "refresh" the search few times and finally I see EU crpg once again.

WTF?
Title: Re: Connection lost.....
Post by: Meow on February 10, 2012, 05:17:35 pm
Yeah, that would happen if your connection has trouble to get the info from the servers.
Actually it's exactly why you get disconnected, you do not get any data from the servers anymore.

Obviously those are very short outages but they are long enough to get you disconnected =(

Very sorry but there is really not much we can do about this by changing some stuff around.
Obviously the problem is not this bad all the time so maybe they will actually fix it at some point.

I'll talk to the donkey if he would consider a move but i doubt it.

I have experienced it on different servers. I'm sure it happens to me on EU_1 but I also recently experienced it on the Fallen Training server. It's really annoying and happens quite a lot sometimes. I just love it when you get disconnected only to find out theres a password on EU_1, thats mostly when I GTX.

do you who experience this problem all live in old houses with shitty / old copper wiring?

I get this problem too, and my experience seems to indicate it's basically that the wire is shitty and gets bogged down. 
Title: cRPG EU servers
Post by: Patoson on February 11, 2012, 09:05:29 pm
Greetings.

Since like 3 weeks ago, between 16:30 and 23:30 (approximately) my ping rises to the double and more, and it is literally unplayable. I contacted my ISP and everything was fine. I've tried other games and it's fine. Except cRPG during the evenings.

What is happening to the servers that this strange thing happens to me (and some other Spanish who told me the same weeks ago)?

I want to play at those hours, since it's when most of the people I know play, but I just can't.

What's going on?

Edit: I have tried forwarding the port 7240, which is mentioned in a thread in TW Forums, but nothing has changed.
Title: Re: cRPG EU servers
Post by: Christo on February 11, 2012, 09:08:30 pm
As a player from Hungary, I can only say that here the connection is great.

Are those "other spanish" people using the same ISP?

I had so many calls to my old ISP with problems, and they've always told that there is no problem on their side, and that it must be my side that's messing up, while others around my area, using the exact same ISP, had the exact same problems.

 :?
Title: Re: cRPG EU servers

I will merge this with the other connection one.

Same kind of problem just less severe.
Title: Re: Connection lost.....
Post by: Patoson on February 11, 2012, 09:17:13 pm
Yes, Christo, those who told me they had the same problem have the same ISP indeed. It is the worst you can have here in Spain, but it's the only one I can have where I live.
Title: Re: Connection lost.....
Post by: Christo on February 11, 2012, 09:21:30 pm
As expected.

Bad quality, paired with typical customer service that doesn't care about feedback and tries to shut you up, just pay the monthly bills..

Totally like my old ISP, that was ditched after a few months we signed up for them, and they've almost went bankrupt because people left them for a better service provider that came in, faster speeds and better stability for a lower price.
This was many years ago, though.

They deserved it.  8-)
Title: Re: Connection lost.....
Post by: Spawny on February 11, 2012, 09:30:38 pm
What I find strange is that I've been having these disconnecting problems for a couple of weeks now, but played without trouble for a year and half (give or take) before that.

I sure as hell didn't change anything (I know of), so my ISP changed something?

*Edit*
Just awesome... happened twice now when I just hit x5  :mad:
Title: Re: Connection lost.....
Post by: Patoson on February 12, 2012, 09:29:16 pm
Well, could a developer (or anyone who knows) tell me why this happens?

Were there any alterations to the official servers recently? Or something in the mod's code? I don't know what it may be, but I only know I can't play properly and nobody tells me why this is happening. :(

Title: Re: Connection lost.....
Post by: Adrian on February 14, 2012, 10:01:39 pm
It's more than likely that you have poor Internet service, until you get reliable, steady Internet it will happen. Also it could definitely be router related, using a router causes these issues. Plug your Ethernet cable directly into your Internet modem, don't use a router.

If your wiring is older in your house then that can also cause connection issues.

Do other people share your Internet connection? What happens with this is that there is a heavy flow of information streaming all at once which will cause you to lose Your connection just long enough to disconnect you from the game. I can almost tell you for sure that it's not really server sided, as easy as is it is to just blame the servers.

 I guarantee one of these factors apply to each of you, correct the issue or it will just happen. Just going to have to accept that.
Title: Re: Connection lost.....
Post by: Tzar on February 14, 2012, 10:02:52 pm
Dunno but im only losing connection to the warband servers im able to stay on ts an any other game or browser its only cRPG which lose connection not my internet lol
Title: Re: Connection lost.....
Post by: Adrian on February 14, 2012, 10:08:25 pm
That's the thing, you would never notice a hiccup in your Internet browser or TS unless it were for an extended period of time. All it takes for crpg to disconnect you is a split second of missed connection.

As I stated, identify which of those problems I listed apply to you and attempt to correct it and I almost guarantee your connection issues will be corrected.

Having the same problem. Had it for quite a while now though. Months.

EU1 just becomes unreachable for ~30 ish seconds. Pretty sure it's not my connection.

Wish i could do something else to help diagnose and fix this problem. Can't we contact the guys running that datacenter and get them to look at the routing?
Title: Re: Connection lost.....

Not a problem in NA official servers.  Sounds like typical ghetto EU routing to me.

Title: Re: Connection lost.....
Post by: CrazyCracka420 on February 23, 2012, 11:03:40 pm
Then it's probably an issue with where the server is being hosted...and again, most likely a problem with shit routing from the server to your carrier (or vice versa).

Staying connected to teamspeak (if you can verify it) is a good sign.  However if you aren't 100% sure, it's possible you drop a packet or two and get disconnected from the game.  Also, your network can stay connected, but if there's no QA on the network line, it's possible you could have data corruption.  Not that most NA users have QA from their house to the server, but it seems like it's generally better for not losing data packets than EU (which has some really good WAN's, but overall there's too many questionable links in the chain).

Layman's terms:  Your routing (think of a highway from point A to point B) from your house to the teamspeak server might be like the autobahn.  Your routing from your house to the server may be part autobahn, but you may have to travel on some dirt roads when you get close to your destination.

Since a few days a have following Problem: Whenever I play on a server with more than 70 players on (EU_1, EU_2) after a few minutes the game freezes and I loose connection.

I didnt change anything with my textures or anything else. Every server with 20/30/40 players works fine. Also if there are only 50 players on EU_2 I have no problem.

Maybe anyone had the same problem and knows a solution, or if anyone have an idea what could help me, please post it.

Thanks for help.

I have a solid 50/50 Mbit line in the center of Copenhagen. I never use wireless accessories/components on my PC. My cRPG ping is around 25 and my FPS never drop under 40. Not a single issue with other applications.

I will play some other M&B mods, to see if there is an issue with M&B itself... I find it incredibly hard to believe its due to my hardware/internet.

Not that I'm assuming anyone has this setup, but for shit's and giggles let me know what processor you're using (32 or 64 bit) and what operating system you're using (32 bit or 64 bit).  I ran into problems before where I had a really nice system but accidentally installed Windows 7, 32 bit with my 64 bit processor and the game would lag out all the time to the point of being unplayable.  Didn't actually disconnect me ever though.  I think if you have a 64 bit processor and run a 32 bit operating system you can run into problems in certain applications (like warband and/or crpg).

If it is not possible to fix, or if the problems is on the client side - can someone who knows what they are talking about make a post here? :(

No more "check you wi fi", "check your cables", "update your mouse drivers", and all the other moronic "solutions".

The issue is stated clearly in the 1st post by Tzar:

... alot of players have the same problem ...

Happens 12/10 times a day atm its pretty much unplayable ...

... other games ... works fine
... cRPG seems to lose all connection to the servers for 7/9 sec then they come back up an you lost multi score ect ect its really annoying
... started for ... a month ago ...


I have exactly the same problem.

In my case, i would say its every 10-30 min. Never with less then 10 min in between. I can never play a full hour - 60 min, without losing the mothercocksuckfucking connection.

Never happens to me, and I think the big clue is that it's only happening on EU servers.  It's either a problem with the EU server, the EU server routing, or possibly the connection you're using to get to the server.  It doesn't sound like a client side application issue (or it would be affecting people in NA too).

The ultimate solution may have to come from Taleworlds -- if you disconnect and reconnect within the same round, it's as if you never left -- you get your multi back.

The mystery disconnect happens to me once a week or so.

The issue started yesterday for me... Sort of an 'out of the blue' thing.
I find it odd that most replies have been blame it on your isp when international players are reporting the same issue at different times.
Unfortunately it comes the day NA1 had bugs most the day and after joining the server playing a round then failing the map change and closing the game the issue arises.
I disconnect regularly after rounds now, any multiplier earned is lost quickly.  :|

I am still having this issue.

It's not good for my psychological wealth.

Quitting cRPG.

Maybe it will get a bit better in a week or two.

I think it's more problematic with people who connect to the EU servers, I haven't heard any complaints about systematic disconnects on a large scale from NA users.

I'm thinking these people having problems should go to IRC and keep messaging dev's until they look at this forum thread.

I'll try to run a traceroute log tonight and find out at which hop the connection gets lost and then i'll nag Espu and Meow untill we got this fixed.

Hang in there guys, we're on it. It shall be fixed!

1. Script: http://infinitum.dyndns.org/tracer.cmd (http://infinitum.dyndns.org/tracer.cmd). It executes Windows tracert command until you stop it and saves output to tracelog.txt
2. Save the script to your desktop, note that it needs to be saved with .cmd extension
3. Run it (double click) when you start playing, check that it creates the file and start logging
4. If/when you get disconnected from the server, make a note of the time
5. If/when you are able to reconnect to the server, make a note of the time

If a few people do this, we may get some clue as to why this occurs. It is most likely a routing problem with the provider but impossible to diagnose and complain about if we have no data.

When you manage to capture a disconnect, copy it, strip out the irrelevant parts of the file (stuff way before and way after the disconnect) and rename it to something meaningful (like "Disconnect_day-month_hour-min-sec") so you basically create an archive of the disconnects.

Upload the file to Pastebin (http://www.pastebin.com/) and post the link, your notes and your approximate location and ISP here.

The only way I see that working is if you run the tracert, and then run a continuous ping to every hop on the way to the server (-t modifier for ping command...assuming you knew that already).

Kudos for you EU's who have the know-how, trying to troubleshoot.

First results from a computer at my work:

(click to show/hide)

Looks like the problem occurred on the hop between hos-bb1.juniper2.rz14.hetzner.de [213.239.240.247] and hos-tr4.ex3k11.rz14.hetzner.de [213.239.224.236]. Let's see if we can get some more data to confirm.

Time out's don't necessarily mean anything.  Some routers are set to not respond to ping requests. 

Damn German's and their privacy.
Title: Re: Connection lost.....
Post by: Phazey on March 05, 2012, 07:27:31 pm
If you looked at the log (open the spoiler), CrazyCracka420, you'll see that the routers in question were responding at the previous and the next attempts.

So far, for the half an hour i ran traceroute, i was unable to reach the server one time for a period shorter than 1 minute. That's consistent with what i've been seeing at home. I'll go home now and leave traceroute running for an evening. That should give us the data we need.

It would be really nice if a couple of you guys did the same. More results = more leverage to slap the hosting company with.

Bah... I've never had this problem, until this week  :evil: My ISP had like 2 hours black-out on Tuesday and since that, it losts connection very often. I can't play more than 1-2 minutes in a row :( Other games and speed are OK.  It happens to me even on NA servers.
Title: Re: Connection lost.....
Post by: BlueKnight on April 06, 2012, 02:26:01 pm
I lose connection like 2-3 times (or less), while playing for 6 hours or more, so it doesn't affect me so much, but it has just started happening to me. I have never had such problems earlier. Instead, in the evenings sometimes I get 100-140 ping instead of 56-70. Don't know what's the problem.

Good luck everybody.

Wow I thought it was just me.  I have been losing connection a LOT lately.  Not really sure why.
