Ragnarok Online Forum

Anyone have trouble with RO freezing at random? Game works fine except it randomly freezes completely, haven't found anyone else with this problem.

I don't have any info for you, but you might report your OS and GPU. That might help narrow the issue down.

Also, as a general approach to working around problems like this, you might try turning the graphics settings of the game down to see if it stops freezing.

It's actually my girlfriends computer thats having trouble, since I don't use mac myself. Here's her computer info:

OSX 10.5.7
2.4 ghz intel core 2 duo
4gb 1067 MHz DDR3

I tried turning down the graphics settings and changing resolutions, but no luck.

You can instruct CrossOver Games to generate a log of its execution of the client by completing the following instructions. Such a log might provide clues to why your client is freezing. Relay the log in a reply to this post.

1. In CrossOver Games, choose ‘programs’, ‘run command’.

2. Choose the bottle which contains your RO installation.

3. Press ‘browse’, navigate to your RO client folder (the default location of which is Program Files/Gravity/RagnarokOnline), and choose either ‘Ragexe.exe’ or ‘RagFree.exe’, depending on whether you play on the premium or free servers respectively.

4. Append ‘ 1rag1’ to the ‘command’ field (including the preceding space).

5. Tick (check) ‘create log file’.

6. Press ‘run’.

7. Choose a location to save the log, then press ‘save’.

8. Play the game normally until the client freezes.

You ran the wrong file. :)

In the file selection pane which you open in step 3, press command-shift-G, enter ‘~/Library/Application Support/CrossOver Games/Bottles/iRO/drive_c/Program Files/Gravity/RagnarokOnline’, press ‘go’, then choose the appropriate file (‘Ragexe.exe’ if you play on a premium server, or ‘RagFree.exe’ if you play for free on Valkyrie).

If you follow the instructions correctly, the client should open after completing step 7.

I forgot to mention that you should install any outstanding updates before you follow my instructions. To accomplish this, open the client normally, wait until the message “Patch process completed” is displayed, then close the updater.

how do you 'create logs' of errors under cxgames linux?

Is there no relevant option in the run command window?

curiously enough under lin it only has run, create shortcut and the usual: browse/quite, etc...

i never heard of any logger inside crossover, that would be most helpful actually when reporting bugs...

cheers.

In that case, try entering the following command in a terminal:

Wine --cx-log "$HOME/Desktop/CrossOver Games $(date +%s).log" --cx-app Client 1rag1

where

• ‘Wine’ is ‘/opt/cxoffice/bin/wine’ if CrossOver Games is installed in the system domain, or ‘~/cxgames/bin/wine’ if CrossOver Games is installed in the user domain, and
• ‘Client’ is ‘Ragexe.exe’ or ‘RagFree.exe’, depending on whether you want to execute the client for the premium servers or free server respectively.
