      Hi there, I'm wondering if anyone can help.

       

      I did a search I don't think I've seen this topic before.

       

      I recently changed windowers from 3.4>4 after last update crashed all my plug ins.

       

      Now everything works and all the plug ins too but I seem to timeout exactly 10-20 minutes using windower 4 with or without plug ins. The game stays on fine windowerless and it even works with 3.4 (as long as I don't trigger my spell cast in 3.4). However with Windower 4 it causes timeouts exactly 10-20 min and I can't figure out why.

       

      Your input is much appreciated!

        No idea really. I haven't heard of this problem before. However, I'll give you the normal battery of questions:

        1) Do you have the time-out thing in your FFXI config menu turned to "Never"?

        2) Which antivirus do you use? Can you check whether or not it's blocking Windower 4/FFXI?

        3) Look up the hosts.j file on your computer and make sure there are no unexpected hosts in there.

          1) Its on never

          2) AVG and not blocking as far I can see

          3 I don't know what a host.j file is ^^;

          This sounds very weird, I find it hard to imagine it being Windower-related at this point, since it does nothing to the connection. Maybe it's update-related, since that happened at the same time? Can you try idling without Windower, to see if it happens as well?

            Windower 3.4 works fine w/o SC and non windower works also its just W4 that seems to cause red dot timeout after a while.
