Hi there. I have a problem with game launch. It get fast up to 94% and stops then. CPU usage for its proccess has few percent, but game doesn't start. How can I fix this?
That is usually an indication that you can't reach the login server. Can you ping this server? lvspsn-liv-l01.planetside2.com If not what IP do you get while pinging?
Yes, I can. The IP of server is: 64.37.174.148 . There's print screen below Code: Badanie lvspsn-liv-l01.planetside2.com [64.37.174.148] z 32 bajtami danych: Odpowiedź z 64.37.174.148: bajtów=32 czas=177ms TTL=119 Odpowiedź z 64.37.174.148: bajtów=32 czas=177ms TTL=119 Odpowiedź z 64.37.174.148: bajtów=32 czas=177ms TTL=119 Odpowiedź z 64.37.174.148: bajtów=32 czas=178ms TTL=119 Statystyka badania ping dla 64.37.174.148: Pakiety: Wysłane = 4, Odebrane = 4, Utracone = 0 (0% straty), Szacunkowy czas błądzenia pakietów w millisekundach: Minimum = 177 ms, Maksimum = 178 ms, Czas średni = 177 ms
No problems with the login server on your end. Maybe something is wrong with your client. The launcher has a wrench tool where you can validate the game assets. If nothing helps a reinstall would still be an option.
Launcher's wrench tool shows everything is fine, but steam's tool found an errors with 10GB of data. It happens since last update. I'll give you feedback, when steam's tool finish update of game.
Steam's tool checks against an outdated version. Just stop the process, you will need to reinstall the game now. If you let Steam finish, then the launcher will start with another 9GB update, which is the whole game again.
I've been searching for almost a year now, on how to solve this issue. I've tried resetting my firewall settings. I've tried deleting the game's cache. I've tried clearing my registry. I've tried re-installation. I've tried creating a customer service ticket. I have this 94% problem, on windows 7. I don't expect much help, but I figure I have nothing to lose. Except time.
Run Planetside 2 as Admin, I have issues with it crashing while loading as well, and running as Admin has been the only "fix" so far that I've found.
Shot in the dark here but is your processor overclocked? Are your memory timings too tight? The reason I ask is because when I OC my rig, this game will fail to load at 94%. If you don't know anything about computers, have someone who does check yours out and make sure its running 100% ok. maybe even try downclocking the PC to see if the error goes away. It's just a hunch but I think you have something wrong with your PC, either the settings or the hardware.
CPU was "overclocked" by default Asus mainboard bios (but its not real overclocking). I've turned it off but game's still not run correctly. It was alright until update last Tuesday. @user300115 maybe it's something about hosts file (it's default)?
I have thought about every known solution but nothing seems to help you. That is why I stopped replying. If you want to try speculative fixes then I could give you one. Which would be editing the hosts file at Code: C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc You need to launch notepad as admin and then simply append those lines to the end of your hosts file: Code: 64.37.171.213 lp.soe.com 64.37.174.148 lvspsn-liv-l01.planetside2.com 64.37.169.11 manifest.patch.station.sony.com 80.157.170.177 pls.patch.station.sony.com 69.174.204.11 forums.station.sony.com 69.174.202.136 account.station.sony.com 64.37.171.29 auth.station.sony.com 64.37.171.22 planetside2.com 64.37.171.22 www.planetside2.com Save the file. Then press Windows + R and type in Code: ipconfig /flushdns and press enter. Start the game to find out if that helped. If not you should revert the changes. Simply remove the lines from the hosts file and save it. Then you are done.
@user300115 your way has worked only once. Any ideas? edit: I've erased an apple apps (with Bonjour) but it did not help edit 2: and whats with: Code: 64.37.171.24 lp.soe.com 80.239.178.24 manifest.patch.station.sony.com 64.37.171.29 auth.station.sony.com ?
