SOD | Questie-v9.2.1 - DC every 30 seconds (and use of Way of Earth rune ?)
Piloof opened this issue · 23 comments
Hi,
Since I got my "Way of Earth" rune as a shaman, I noticed that once I equip it, the game crashes (WOW51900319).
This occurs approximatively every 30 seconds once I reconnect again (I timed it with my phone).
I tried unistall / reinstall.
Am I the only one ?
Regards,
I just made a small video (sorry for the bad quality) :

Test procedure
- Launch game with no addon
- Enable Questie
- Wait a little bit (to show the game doesn't crash)
- Activate the "Way of Earth Rune"
- Wait for Crash ==> occurs
- Launch the game
- Wait for the next crash (approx. 30 seconds later) ==> occurs
- Launch the game
- Remove the Way of Earth rune
- Wait a little bit to show that there is no crash
EDIT : If i don't remove the rune, the crash will occur every 30s approx.
This really does not look related to Questie tbh. We are not checking any buff or Rune you equip 🤔 Also you are not accepting any quest or so.
So if you play without any addon and use the "Way of Earth" Rune, there will be no crash? Even if you engage in the world in any way?
I guess it is worth to enable all addons except Questie and see if the crash still happens.
Hey @Piloof did you disable all addons and see if the issue still happens? Also what if you only run Questie?
It is VERY unlikely for an addon to cause a game crash.
Also out of curiosity: What makes you think Questie is causing it?
Hi BreakBB,
I figured when I uninstalled all my addons, one by one, until I managed to create the DC bug again, with Questie.
I just tested it with Questie only enabled ==> crash again.

No problem at all, sir.

This ONLY occurs when I enable Questie. No matter what I do, I get DC'ed every 30sec.

Already did, no problem.
Can you do me a favor and reproduce the crash while you have the "Profiler" of Questie active?
When ingame type /questie go to "Advanced" and click the "Open Profiler" button. Then wait for the crash.
I guess recording it in a video would be good again. If you are on a Windows system you can press the windows key + G to find a recording button. That should increase the quality and will limit the recording to the screen (no sound needed 👍🏻 )

Thanks for the tip :D
I recorded a new video : https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/45b4aizd1fhgq08tswrv5/World-of-Warcraft-2023-12-13-16-59-09.mp4?rlkey=swyxv9s10537es0s8sgiwfl74&dl=0
The video is 11 minutes long (sorry for that). I open the Profiler from 9:50 onwards.
Test procedure
- 0:00 : Lauch game with no addon
- 0:29 : Enable "Way of Earth" rune (0:29) - Wait to check whether the game crashes ==> the game doesn't crash after 1 minute
- 1:30 : Repeat the same test with all addons enabled, but not Questie ==> the game doesn't crash
- 3:08 : Reload UI with all addon and Questie
- 3:18 : Remove "Way of Earth" to check whether the game crashes ==> the game crashes before I manage to do that
- 3:30 : Reload game and remove "Way of Earth" to check whether the game crashes ==> the game doesn't crash
- 5:05 : Use "Way of Earth" rune to check whether the game crashes
- 5:14 : The game crashes
- 5:29 : Game reloaded and wait
- 6:02 : The game crashes
- 6:10 : Reload game and remove "Way of Earth" rune (6:38) ==> the game doesn't crash
- 7:12 : Redo the same test procedure with only Questie on and no other addon ==> the same happens
- 9:55 : Make several crashes occur with "Open Profiler"
- 11:10 : Open Profiler with "Way of Earth" removed and then use "Way of Earth" rune
The profiler seems to get crazy when I activate the "Way of Earth" rune (12:18) ==> looks like some infinite loop or something ?
I hope this helps :)

I am having this same issue with the most recent update today. I'm also shaman using way of earth but havent tested that part of it. tbh I never even considered that way of the earth could effect this.
EDIT: Can confirm it DC's my client like 5 seconds after I use Rockbiter->Way of Earth turns on.
Thank you very much @Piloof
Can you do me a favor and also try the following:
- only Questie enabled
- no crashing rune
- reload and wait for like a minute (no crashes should appear)
- then open the profiler
- then add the rune (you should be able to move the profiler window out of the way for that)
The profiler only showed the regular "Questie is starting up after login", nothing unusual :/
Nevermind, I should have watched the video till the end. That is the last thing you did!
Alright, so something really strange is happening here.
Can you do me a favor and enable logging in Questie and then enable the rune?
Logging can be done in /questie -> Advanced ->
For me it seems like the Blizzard API is either sending too many events while the rune is active or some really strange ones, which might result in this weird behaviour of Questie.
Hi @BreakBB ,
Thank you for you support.
Just did what you asked. Does that send the debug report to you directly ? or is it stored somewhere on my local files ?
I quickly googled that but I couldn't find the answer.

Yeah, entirely possible. When I figured that this happened while Questie was enabled, my first reaction was "wtf, what does it have to do anything with Questie ?!"
Maybe this should be sent to Blizzard too ?
The debug information are still indefinitely looping, but I bet this is a Blizzard issue now.
What do you mean by that? Are you still getting constant Questie chat messages about
SPELLS_CHANGEDin v9.2.2?
Still do, yes. But the game doesn't crashes anymore, so it doesn't really matter to me as far as I'm concerned as a WoW player ^^.
I made another video to see what happens now (with DEBUG info & Profiler Open), when I activate the rune :

Alright yeah. The following version will also fix this ugly behavior. You can disable all the debug stuff now and should be able to play normally 👍🏻
Thanks again for helping out on this and providing that much information ❤️
Hey @Piloof
No, there is no file written for the logs, sorry.
But I had another look at the code. Could you only check the "DEBUG_DEVELOP" checkbox and share a screenshot of your chat? Maybe a small video if the chat gets flooded immediately. I have a trace that could explain this behavior.
It keeps looping this message, until it crashes :
It makes Questie go crazy when I activated the rune with Rockbiter, not when I put the rune in my legs.
Thank you very much @Piloof !
That is what I expected. I'll provide a fix for it very soon and will also try to forward this issue to Blizzard.
Awsome, glad I could help! Thank you @BreakBB
Fixed in v9.2.2
Thanks a lot @BreakBB.
Definitely stable now, awsome work.
I check with everything you taught me here ^^ The debug information are still indefinitely looping, but I bet this is a Blizzard issue now.
