I saw the thread below and am having the same problems. I tried the recommended fixes, but nothing seems to work.

1. Your error log refers to a dmp file, can you e-mail that to lax@lavishsoft.com?

2. You mentioned trying "the recommended fixes" but without being specific about what you did and I think there's really just 1 "fix" ;) What version of Windows are you running?

I emailed it to you earlier in the day. I am running Win7sp1.
I allowed Innerspace through my firewall, through antivirus.
I updated DX and installed DX9

k.

You e-mailed me what you pasted here. Within the paste it refers to the file C:\Windows\system32\EverQuest2.exe_161229_103331.dmp which is what I am asking for now

The other thread specifically refers to this update for Windows 7 as the solution: http://www.catalog.update.microsoft.com/Search.aspx?q=KB3125574 -- so far we have no other information that there might be something else to try...

Hi there. I am having the same problem with Innerspace immediately crashing when I try to load EQ2. I have tried everything suggested. Uninstalled/reinstalled. Patched with test package, etc. It still crashes. I've tried both 64 bit and 32 bit (I have a 64 bit system but have to load 32bit). I am at a loss as to what to do next. I also installed a Windows update that was recommended and stated to fix the problem but that did not work either. I am pasting the dump report I receive. Let me know if you need anything else. Thank you!

Edit: I have tried literally everything except what Lax said to do in 2017 threads instead of this one from 2016 that I am resurrecting.

Thank you again. :D

Well, there's your problem. :)

Here's a few places you can find a link to the Announcement post titled Announcement: Having trouble since an Inner Space update?, without going too far out of the way...

1. Right click Inner Space and select Patcher. It has a handy message about the latest Inner Space updates, including something about if you're having trouble.
2. Launch ISBoxer Toolkit. In the browser window right when you open it up "Having trouble since a recent update? See this thread on our forums: . . ."
3. Since you're here on the forums already, there's a "View active topics"'

Hi there! I did see that topic and viewed it but it was from 2009 and I thought it wasn't relevant. However, I did use an old build as suggested and that worked to get Innerspace running. Now <REDACTED> is crashing when I try to load it. Not sure if it is not compatible with the old build. I have a post on <SOME DUDE'S> forum about this. Is there any way I can get the correct version of Innerspace running to see if this solves the problem? Thank you so much for your help!

Actually, the post is from 2017. 2009 is when Lax joined the board.

Please keep your cheats and hacks to yourself; this is not the place for them.

Cheats and hacks? I'm very confused...

I don't see any recent posts on the forum page linked. The most recent post is from 2013.
