DarkNet?

Post by Rooster »

I have no idea what this error message was or if it attached to this game or server or on my PC.

I got an Error message saying something like "DarkNet - Unexpected error. An error has occurred in an internal function (Net Manager)

I take it that maybe my PC is getting to hot and making my internet card burn up but when I google DarkNet I get a whole bunch of crazy "hidden search stuff."

I got kicked several times from the Ceti Alpha V server and just renamed my character and logged back in without closing the game down. I did this three times. After the error message I shut it all down for the night.

Any idea what this is or how I fix it?

If an error like that appears, it is usually a critical fault within the multiplayer module. Could indicate a signal or quality problem with the connection you were using for multiplayer at the time. It can also be resource related, but I would suspect the former first. See if the trend continues next time you play, if it persists, then e-mail me the exact details of the error message and I should be able to determine more. Getting kicked and dropped are two different situations though. It's more likely you simply got dropped several times due to the same related signal/quality issue that eventually resulted in the more pronounced error message.
