Cant get into the game
#56203 - 04/28/08 03:31 PM

I launch the game. Log in. World selection screen appears, when I chose a world it looks like it is going to connect then it drops back to the log-in screen. Help?

Still no luck, WiFiHi? I just logged in to check, and I had no problem. You'll probably want to open a support ticket, if you haven't already done so.

Have you opened a support ticket, though? Generally speaking we don't have much visibility into problems with the network, and what little data I can see doesn't indicate any problems - so talking with tech support is the best way to get the networking team the additional data they'd need to diagnose it, and then fix it.

I don't know if I have the same issue, but it sounds similar. Last weekend, I tried logging into my account after having not played it in over 2 weeks. I selected the Membership world, and as it was going to bring up my characters, it crashed out me out to a Blue Screen of Death.

I didn't panic at first, because I was aware of an ATI driver problem I had since Jan 1st. (made the mistake of upgrading when I shouldn't have) They were messed up and caused my games to crash intermittently. I tried it again, and it crashed again. I decided not to try anymore, as later in the weekend I was planning on a complete XP reinstall anyhow. I've been putting off the XP overhaul for months, since the driver mess.

Sunday, I complete my XP reinstall, had an even newer version of the ATI driver (8.4), downloaded and reinstalled Dungeon Runners and proceeded to log in. Crashed out at the exact same spot. Blue screen.

I was not amused. After a clean install, onto a new drive, I still had the exact same issue. Is the problem still me, or is it something to do with my account? So I tried my son's account. Exact same thing. Well sun over beach. So now I'm completely discombobulated.

Has something changed? Is this something that has been addressed already and I could find the solution on the forums, or should I actually submit a Support request?

Day 2 and still cannot login.

So far I have responded to tech support twice. First to describe my network setup and now a second time to change my password. I guess I will have to get through the "checklist" before someone will look at my account in depth for a problem.

Starting to get the shakes now from DR withdrawal

We haven't gotten completely to the bottom of this, but we have fixed the issue for now, and the customer support team knows we've had an issue crop up in the last couple of days. As I understand it they are looking out for the telltale signs of the problem (can't get past the server selection screen), and jumping directly to the solution in those cases.

Yes, I am able to log in again. Support indicated they reset a server to try to fix. Hopefully tomorrow I can get my daily fix of DR!

Thanks

My issue maybe different then.

I tried logging in and I get to the character screen. It appears to struggle to load up the 3D toon on the selection screen and as it shows up for a split second, I either get a BSoD, or a reboot.

Tried different servers, same thing. Kinda ironic I discover this a day after my membership renewed for two accounts.

This sounds like a problem with your computer... have you contacted our tech support, and/or the tech support for your computer?

#56497 - 04/30/08 01:18 AM

No because I'm a computer tech myself.

I just finished a clean install of Windows XP, and so far, this is the only game giving me issues.

The only possible HW/SW issue I may have that I can figure out, is the latest ATI driver 8.4, for the Radeon x1650 Pro, which isn't a very good card apparently. Since the driver update in April, I've had issues. However, was it "because" of the driver update? Tough to tell. I hadn't played DR in 3 weeks, and I updated the driver in that span.

Seeing how others are logging in, and I'm not, I'll open an official ticket.

In the meantime, the whole reason I did a clean install was because of a botched video driver update back on New Years which effected everything, but DR still worked. (kicked out to a BSoD once in a blue moon, but otherwise worked) This clean install should run batter, and it has, except for DR.

I may look into getting an earlier working ATI driver, if I can find a working process to effectively remove the current version and its file, and replace it with the earlier version.

This may not be your issues, but... I have had similar things occur from time to time. However, mine will say "error connecting to server". Then I hit log in again, it says, "this player is already signed in". Hit it once more, and it usually works. My apologies if this does not help.

This is a problem that quite a few get and what I know, noone knows exactly why yet. It's not hardware/software related to the users computer 'cause it happens on different computers, even ones where other accounts work.

All I can say is that you should open a support-ticket and explain as in the quote above 'cause the li'l helpers should be really aware of this problem by now and able to fix it.
