    One hour ago, I was playing the game fine, after logging in as normal via my downloaded thin client.

    I logged out to switch servers, and now I can not log in. I get the error message above. I tried playing via the web browser (firefox), but it will not let me download the thin client again. It says it can't open the file thinclient.exe for processing...

    Any suggestions?

    Usually the website will let you in right away, but it can put you in a queue to check in.
    You can wait it out for the thin client. It might be better in a few minutes. Or not, depending on your location.
    You can check all your equipment to be on the safe side, but it's usually not controllable on the player's side.

    The DSO (Disruption Of Service) Cyber-attacks continue, and BigPoint's response is far from a cure.
    It might be that BP has made so many dedicated enemies, that the hackers and crackers with play hell with the servers for some time.
    BP might simply be too tight to spend the money on new servers and security, and have a convenient group of enemies to blame.
    "Why" makes no difference, the bad gaming results are just the same to the players.

    I have the same problem. When logging in i get that message. The client just crashes. 1 or 2 tries later i can log in without the client crashing. But it s gonna be rather annoying if this happens every day. I think it started yesterday and the 'thinclient.exe has stopped working' is a message from the OS, not from the client.

    The thin client stops working for me too, but it does work after a couple tries.


    Here's what I did, and didn't get the crash(yet):

    -Windows Button + R, %temp%

    -Delete DSOFolder, and yes empty recycle bin.

    -Restart Computer/Laptop.

    Im not sure if it has to do with the crash, but when I did this, it wouldn't crash anymore, atleast not yet.



    Kind Regards,

    Sit down, and let me tell you about the "good ol' days" and I'll remind you of tales from 2013. It was a good event overall, but not without its flaws.
    Flaws add character. If we were removed all flaws from Drakensang Online, we would have no game left.
    • Imagine yourself running through the beautiful winter scenery, fighting the good fight (in an oddly blue-toned map), with a friend by your side. Then, out of nowhere -- the baddest boss of them all --Nebula3--. No, no, no... your friend doesn't notice you dropped out, and finished the fight. You log back on only to find your sad, mopey toon abandoned, hungry, and on the naughty list.
    • Tiptoe, this time, as to not awaken the monster. Boom. --Nebula3--.
    • You've coalesced a strong level 45 team -- Spellcasters, Rangers united as one. Big Paw is the only obstacle that separates you from the exit. A Thicket of Thorns explosion or Mind Control (?) deals the final blow --> no drop for anyone. Confusion, a riot ensues, and you cry a little inside.
    • You successfully complete the event and grab Santa's Gift Bag (cloak), enter the magic kingdom to check out your new threads. Spin around a couple times. Looking good. You kill some enemies... something is wrong. Kill some more creatures. No drops! Why! That is the absolute opposite purpose of the cloak. Looks like karma nipped you in the 'nads for stealing presents from the kids on the "nice" list.
    • And, of course there was lag.
    As for the thinclient error mentioned earlier, check your Task Manager and make sure you don't have residual thinclient.exe or drakensangonline.exe running in the background. Close it if you do and try again.

    I am now finding this game very unbearable.. Dc from pvp.. dc when entering doorways.. huge lags.. placed in limbo whilst trying to battle in pvp or Farming.. actions taken clearing files, tune ups.. None of this semm to make a difference.. Unable to get daily Xmas Bonus redeemed.. still have lost chat sometimes.. We definitely need a fix-it doctor ....like Now ..

    Agreed.


    I also hate the black/pink screen I get sometimes when trying to enter/exit areas.
