The fix is not on tribble yet. keep that in mind. Brandon said PART of the fix was already on tribble. not the entire fix.
Appreciate that. I have been following this thread and the fact part of the fix is on Tribble. Fancied giving it a go, just to see if I was one fo the few who could get on there.
When I get back in I'll Create a channel called OrderofPersistance. That is if the other guy who's gonna create the VOL or VOTL channel doesnt do it.
Once its created I'll post a thread in Ten Forward titled Persistant Officers Report. Post your @handle and I'll send out invites, or you can join directly. And just to verify that you are a PO Only put in your @handle nothing else unless you need the /10.

I changed the Video Settings on 18 November 2013 from DX9 to DX11 before leaving the game on last successful play. Launching the game now results in a crash to desktop and an error ticket popup at the point the LoR splash screen changes to the brightness calibration screen. Ticket number 27358408 is provided by the crash reporter.
I have tried deletion of the user .prefs file, a deletion of the game followed by registry cleaning and 3 re-installations of the game through Arc, Steam and an old Launcher file ST.17.20120104b.18 without the issue being resolved. Nvidia Drivers used were 314.22, 327.23. 331.65 and 331.82. Following further experimentation the game loaded successfully after switching compatibility from Win7 64bit to Vista (non SP) wherein I changed the game to DX9ex without a hitch. After returning the game to run as Win7 there is no longer an issue.
Rather confusing fault as this is one of the few games I still run in DX9 (Neverwinter was and still is crash free under DX11.
No idea if this is of any help but I hope that it is.
I went in on tribble to just play a bit - had a hard time to find someone to make a team - finaly found a nice guy and killed some voth...
but (there allways must be a but hehe) after playing 10min we got the info that tribble is going down for maintenance in 30min... so we played another 25min and went out....
gameplay was ok
here some info about hardware and software Im using and what I have done since that crazy season 8...
using an old pentium 4 cpu 3,2GHz
3 GB RAM
Win XP
NVIDIA GeForce GT 630
nothing special (this computer is old only the Nvidia i got some months ago)
what Ive done:
reinstalled directX 9
updated java
installed actual video card drivers for my NVIDIA
installed STO completly new using ARC (but not using it to start the game - have a shortcut to desktop)
patched holodeck and tribble
- not sure that anything of it was necessary - game was running before season 8 without any problems
but you know, its like taking an other road insted of standing in the jam - it might take you longer than standing and waiting - but on the other road you r moving and that is a much better feeling
PS: my holodeck is still not running - only tribble
Just as it did for many of us on Tribble, Holodeck is crashing upon load up. Let's start at the beginning.
I loaded up the Season 8 patch and started it up. Since the server wasn't up I expected that it would close the shard and send me back to the log-in prompt. It launched, the music started and *crash* back to the desktop and the cryptic error report prompt.
Ticket #25992675
well got to laoding characters crash and have since been able to get that far get 3/4 way loaded in the Cryptic screen then crashes and reset and restarted everything now can't get past 3/4 load up in the Cryptic screen any idea's?:(

How about Risa for a meeting place?
This is a great idea.... we need to remember and post this idea so that anyone in the thread not currently available will know... i suppose i could put it in my sig if i have room... for them to contact you, or I or the president of OOS

Appreciate that. I have been following this thread and the fact part of the fix is on Tribble. Fancied giving it a go, just to see if I was one fo the few who could get on there.
I followed the directions about putting the game in Vista compatibility mode and I was able to log into Holodeck after the whole week of waiting.
I recommend as the original OP, use the standard Vista, no special packs, and when you do get in, lower your video card settings as I jumped into a sector with a ton of people in it and there is considerable lag.
I look forward to Thursdays patch as well.....good luck.
So, lowered my settings, but even still sooo slow I cant talk to my fleet, move, do anything...they are all sending messages happy Im back, but I cant let them know Im reading them....so frustrating....

Just the idea I had.
Risa as meeting place is cool, but I'd suggest we take Drozanna, as Risa isn't available for KDF Chars until they got the 3rd Marauding rank.
EDIT: Loaded the new update... still no playing for me.
Still the same ticket # 18897741.

As I'm not sure if there'll be a Vice President, I'd like to make you the Chief of Investigation, as well as admrenlarreck will be Chief of Communications.
I hope that's okay for you.

Nimbus 3 would be more appropriate. Back woods, leper colony
We've just unlocked Tribble with out latest patch. Here are the patch notes that relate to this thread:
Resolved a number of crashes which have been occurring for some players.
Resolved some crashes associated with various types of graphics cards.
Work is continuing on tracking additional crashes involving graphics related issues.
Please patch up and give it a try. If you're still crashing (which some will, please see the notes above), please reply with your crash number. Also, please note if it's the same crash number you had from the start or if it has changed (include old # too). Thank you.
Sorry to disagree, but we#re not talking about a leper colony, but a secret organization.
We don't need to hide on some forgotten planet of peace, we hide in plain sight.
And the bast place to do so is Drozana Station, IMO.
Though we're free to meet wherever we want, if necessary. Even on each other's ship's bridge.

Well, I can still log into Tribble as of the patch before this one. However, like some of the other captains, I'm experiencing really wierd "acid trip" graphics tears and frame drawing issues that persist while I move the camera around. Also, space will whitewash when I'm in my BOFF assignment tab while I've selected a drop-down menu to change BOFF assignments, etc. So I'm in, but the graphics issues make it unplayable. Making progress, but still not a working fix for me.
I am using DX9, Windows XP SP3, and nVidia 7950GT video card that's AGP. It's a DX9 card, so no point in my trying to get DX10 on Windows XP. Plus nVidia has stopped support for it since it's such an old card, so no more updated drivers for it anymore.
"General Server Stability" means they are bolting the servers to the floor, right? Wouldn't you be upset if Branflakes were to go stumbling into the server room, knock a rack over, and bring the game down for a DAY? SO, they aren't scrwing it up, they are bolting it down.
