Logging off FFXI Problems

[tylerm]

Unloading FFXI works fine, but then when I try to log out, my screen goes black as if to go to the Select Character, Create Character etc. screen and it just kinda stays there....I end up having to force shut off (hold the button down for a few seconds) to do anything. It hasn't proven to be harmful doing that but I still get worried every time I do it. So whats going on?

do you unload lunar? if not in your console type " unload Lunar " and try logging of then. It might help.

Once in a while, Lunar hangs on unload right after it supposedly has cleaned everything up. I've had it do this both when FFXI tries to close the game window and also when telling windower to unload the plugin.

Well I didn't get that error message like the one in your link so I thought my problem might have been a little bit different, sorry. But, thanks for helping me resolve my problem. ;D

It depends on the system, some may pop with the error, others may not. I actually read the log after I got a crash exactly like yours without the popup. Yet the debug window stopped at the exact same place as the person that did get the popup.

Some systems like to set the box to pop behind the game window, so you never see it.. that may be the case too.

I think this is fixed in the most recent experimental build.

Well, considering the Feb 20 update broke what was left of the FFXI lib (except the chat functions), The experimental build isn't any worse off than the existing Alpha release.
