Common Critical Errors and their Solutions
Error: History: FL2GameData::ObsceneDataLoad <- FL2GameData::Load() <- UGameEngine::Init <- InitEngine
Cause:The client is missing one or more vital files that are required to loadthe game. You have not installed the patch or updater properly, youhave accidently deleted files, or you are not using the right Chronicle.
Solutions: 1. Make sure none of your folders are empty; ie. systextures, staticmeshes, textures, animations.
███████2. If found to be empty, reinstall Lineage 2 after completely removingthe client via Control Panel -> Add or Remove Programs.
███████ 3. If step 2 does not work, download a fresh Lineage2 installer

Error: Negative delta time! History: UGameEngine::Tick <- UpdateWorld <- MainLoop
Cause: Your Lineage 2 client could not properly read your CPU clock speeds. This usually only happens with AMD processors.
Solutions: 1. Download the [AMD Dual Core Optimizer] program and install it.

Error: Failed to enter Entry: Can't find file 'Entry'. History: UGameEngine::Init <- InitEngine
Cause:Your client is missing one or more required files to launch the game.This may also occur if you install the L2 Server patch onto the wrongversion of the game (Hellbound, Gracia, C5, etc).
Solutions:1. Install the patch in the MAIN Lineage II folder, not the systemfolder or anywhere else. Installing it in the wrong place can causethis error.
███████ 2. Update your video card drivers to the latest stable ones.

Error: Application failed to initialize properly
Cause:This usually appears when you are using modded video card drivers, veryoutdated video card drivers, do not have the .NET Framework installed,or any combination of the three.
Solutions: 1. Update your video card drivers to the latest stable ones.
███████ 2. Download and install the .NET Framework 2.0(Genuine Windows XP/Vista required).

Error:General protection fault! History: UObject:: DissociateImports <-UObject::EndLoad <- UObject::StaticLoadObject <-(Engine.SkeletalMesh =anything can be here=) <- IsLoadedResource<- User::SetPawnResource <- UNetworkHandler::Tick <- FunctionName=NpcInfoPacket <- UGameEngine::Tick <- UpdateWorld <-MainLoop
Cause: This is 99% ofthe time caused by video card drivers being unable to load textures, orit can be very rarely caused by a missing texture.
Solutions: 1. Update your video card drivers to the latest stable ones.
███████2. If step 1 does not work, do some searching to find out what driverversions work best for your video card. In my case and many others, thelatest drivers have caused issues, and older drivers work much better.

Cause:You have a corrupt texture, potentially from another private serverthat doesn't know how to create a proper patch or from an action youhave done yourself.
Solutions: 1. download a fresh Lineage2 installe
███████ 2. If step 1 does not work, reinstall DirectX 9.0c and update your video card drivers to the latest stable ones.

Cause: Another program is intercepting your connection with the Auth server when you click 'Login'. This can be from almost anything.
Solutions:1. If you have an anti-virus program such as AVG, disable all activeprotection while logging in and enable it again only once you areingame.
███████ 2. If you have another Lineage 2 client open of adifferent chronicle (ex. logged into a Gracia Final Part 2 server whiletrying to login to Interlude one), close the other client and restartyour client. Also close any other games that utilise an anti-cheatprogram, whether it be Gameguard, nProtect, etc. You should now be ableto login.
███████ 3. Go to C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc and openthe file 'hosts' with notepad. Other than all lines starting with thecharacter '#', make sure that this is the only line there:
Code:
Quote127.0.0.1 localhost
Unlessyou have added other lines there and know what you are doing, you canleave those, but delete all lines with L2authd.lineage2.com,L2testauthd.lineage2.com, auth.lineage2.com.tw, auth.lineage2.jp,L2auth.Lineage2.in.th, L2auth.Lineage2.ph, or anything else you seethat relates to Lineage 2 Auth.
