Version 0.1.23

[Afr0]

This version has a number of fixes, including a much improved cache system. The client now displays correct strings for login, and encryption related crashes when entering a city should be much less frequent.
It also contains a half-assed attempt at a messaging/chat system.
You should be able to message other players by going to the inbox in the city and selecting another player from the dropdown menu. However, new messages might appear as new notifications (or they might be added to an already existing conversation window, this hasn't been tested).
This version also includes the fixed patcher that now works on x64 systems.
If you have any issues, you can grab the patcher separately from here. If your client crashes when logging in, try deleting your CharacterCache folder.
Last but not least, this version has international language support!
For now, you can grab the Norwegian installer from here, or work on translating a language of your own.

After logging in, I was crashing. Tried deleting CharacterCache. Still crashing.

The servers are not yet update I think.

My PD name is Zack Casey.

In regards to the patcher fix for 0.1.22 users (or older), the instructions are below. If you've already done this from my previous post, then ignore this quote.

In order for this fix to work successfully, you must extract to: C:\Program Files (x86)\Maxis\The Sims Online\TSOPatch or C:\Program Files\Maxis\The Sims Online\TSOPatch, and "Yes to all" when asked to override.

Yes they are.
Remixful, it works on my end. If you're talking about city login, that is still unstable I think. Try logging in again.

Patcher freezing on downloading client.manifest

When I boot Doll house client it says 0.1.23 and when I try to login it freezes on 25%.
Im not sure if I have all files or if servers are down now.
And if I have no all files how can i get if that bootstrap keeps freezing?

I have exactly the same problems.

Sigh. Here you go. You'll have to download the patcher separately.
Did you run PDBootstrap like you're supposed to?

 

[Afr0]

Guys, you all need to be logged on at the same time so we can test chat!

 

[Junior Barboza]

Can not login, server is not available, and when so I can create my yes it closes

 

[Tori Sim]

Ok so the automatic update didn't work so I did manual update into the Client Folder - I am able to log in I'm ready to test the chat when you are
Oh by the way, we DO go into the City view right?

 

[Tori Sim]

Simantics & Lot Debug option crashed.. just FYI But I am able to log in to East Jerome successfully

 

[Tori Sim]

Hmmm ok, got a message from "Giggles" but when I went to respond - it crashed
Reopened the game - tried to send a message to "Giggles" but it won't "Send"

Me too :/
Edith: It looks like the players it's not synchronize on the server.

 

[Afr0]

Oh shit. Giggles was me, someone created her on the root account. Anyway, I tried sending a message just to see what would happen.
Good thing you got it, but really worrying that I got my own name and not yours. :/
Interestingly, I got the message myself. So sending works very well - player login, not so much.

 

[elesto]

Logged in using new account details as can not remember my originals and went to create a character then named the character went to click yes and the client crashed.

 

[aidancheddar]

CharacterCache suddenly decided to delete itself, and I can't make any new Sims now without the client crashing now.

 

[SoraTSO]

Okay able to log in as normal but I cannot get to map still.. Also the game says it is not responding. Loading possibly?
*Edit* Just tried again I was able to get Map view but cannot do anything on it, I tried to test the messaging system but then it froze. If it helps I have a screen shot. But mostly as far as I can tell it looks like it still saying "Not responding" but I don't know. Hopefully this can get fixed thanks guys for all you have done

Not sure why the client deleted the cache. It shouldn't have done that. Maybe you're using an old version of the client. Try downloading the one I provided.
Anyhoowww... I tried creating a new character (you shouldn't create a new character every time something goes haywire btw, you'll flood the DB!) and deleting it, client didn't crash.
Your crash was most likely related to the encryption protocol, which is unfortunately slightly unstable still. :|

I noticed when deleting a character, the client seemed to be removing a totally different char from the SAS.

Anyway... I kind of want to work on the messaging system still, but I get a feeling that working on encryption stability might be more important, to avoid random client crashes. Sigh.

I can't log into the client... I tried deleting CharacterCache. I'm not talking about city login, I'm talking about the main login at the start, I crash after the loading or whatever on the bottom right.
