Hello
Since the patch, my client constantly "quit" without any warning (no debug message) and / or freeze (and then forced to quit).
it happens irregularly, at dedock or while spinning in dock or in the middle of a warp … anytime.
It has just happened (freezing) while I'm writing this post (while i was in a tunnel warp > on sisi, its the 3rd freeze in 15 mn !)

-> I play both sisi (Version:7.20.321452) and tranquility (windowed mode) on a Mac pro 4x 2,66 Ghz - 6 GB - ATI 4870 - OSX 10.6.8

-> Same thing happens at home where I play on tranquility (Windowed mode) on an imac 2,93 Ghz - c2d - 4GB- Nv GTE120 - oSX 10.6.8)

Anyhow the game is fluid and beautiful.

I've lowered a bit shader quality to medium, and clean caches, but nothing changed.
Its being absolutely unplayable :((

Sisi was working perfectly few days ago…

please … Heeeeelp :)

The symptoms quite sound like connection issues. Please check your firewall settings (as firewall rules may need to be updated after a patch due to the client changing quite a bit) and also refer to the following article for some basic connection diagnostics that eventually point towards the problem if it indeed is a connectivity thing:

Do I dare say - don't use a Mac for games?
