So far everytime I go into CP lately it has kicked me out
I mean as in..
I go through the gate
It loads

I zoom the camera out--BAM back at the launcher
Or if I dont zoom the camera, if I take a few steps- BAM back out to the launcher
If I do ANYTHING besides slowly, painfully, and stupidly make my way back to the gate (requires me to get kicked out 3-4 times to make my way to the gate, then another time to attempt to go back through), i get kicked out.

I think this is ridiculous. Back when Xtrap would notify you about it, I would get xtrap notices when this happened.

WHAT THE HECK IS WRONG?
What does it think Im doing? Why is it not allowing me into CP over 70% of the time now?

(Note: its on and off, for a few weeks Ill be able to get into CP, then for a few weeks it will almost completely keep me out)

I have quests in CP1 ya know, and I cant make it there because I keep getting kicked out. Sometimes I cant even get out, and have to load the game on my laptop (256 md ram takes like 10 min to load the game), JUST to take 6 steps to the gate and get out.

And before you say it:
I have redownloaded the game. It still does this, only now I have boxes under any clickable item, I still cant see goblins (only their feet and club show on my screen), and OX Field is still missing its floor/rocks/barriers. I redownloaded it thinking these would get fixed. Nope. Actually got worse.

Riko I know you said you already did a clean install. But UNLESS you did a complete cleanup of your system when you uninstall it leaves heaps of stuff on your pc. Any one of those files could be what is causing your problem. A while back I had bad XTrap problems.

The thing that smacked me in the face was how corrupt my system was when I did a defrag. I use XP and the base colour of a defrag should be mainly blue with a few little red lines here and there. BUT with the XTrap errors it was the reverse, ALL red with a few blue lines. This showed that something had got corrupted on my system.

I wasnt sure what so first I went to Add/Remove programs and deleted fiesta.

Then a complete system cleanup, I searched and removed all fiesta and outspark files through START, SEARCH.

Then START, CONTROL PANEL, INTERNET and deleted all cookies and temp files. Yeah I know DISK CLEANUP should do it, but, often we have more than one user on the pc, ie: Administrator, Default etc

Did a DISK CLEANUP and DEFRAG.

Downloaded and installed a clean version of Fiesta.

DEFRAG

Haven't had a problem since.

There is also another area most users don't clean, and with some good reason (it can be somewhat dangerous to your system if you don't know what you are doing). That is removing the registry entries left behind after you uninstall Fiesta. Sometimes these can cause problems later on (although they shouldn't, there have been cases where they have). If you want info on how to do it, you can contact me by PM. (I prefer not to mention how on the open forums in case some kid decides he is going to try it and messes up his parents or schools computer or something.)

this is a problem you should delete the whole file of fiesta instead of going over it with the patch u dowload this way you dont have the worry what the patch didnt take off. some of those files are corrupt and can cause damage to the download aswell.

>.> Sorry I havent gotten to this in so long..

It also kinda erks me that after I redownloaded Fiesta, the OX Field map worked... ONCE. The first time after redownloading it, it loaded correctly, but from then on its just.. bad.

And actually.. after cleaning out my compute r(all those darn fiesta screenshots) my computer was in desperate need of a defrag (O.O literally, this is the first time it has said "you SHOULD defrag this volume" O_o).
So I did that.. cleaned up some more, ran the drive_cleaner. Ill defrag again tonight and Uninstall and Install Fiesta again..

And Ill be posting back on the results >< I woudl just be so happy if it got rid of the darn box thing and fixed the ox field map... ><

Riko when you give the defrag the option to tell you *yes or no* you do or dont need to defrag. It only evalutates the data in a very tiny % of the drive, usually the first 1-2%. My pc is VERY clean, isnt loaded down with music etc, only has standard Windows Office Suite on it. It is my Internet pc :D Yet I have to do a defrag pretty much weekly. Next time your pc tells you that you dont need to do a defrag, tell it to do it anyway and you will see what I mean :D

I had the exact same issues as u did riko. I followed the instructions given, and Fiesta is now running smoother than ever. I found so many hidden files from fiesta, in random places on my computer.. managed to get rid of all of them, defragged and cleaned up the C-Drive.. and vwallah :) CP doesn't kick me off the game, OX field has a floor and walls lol, goblins are 100% visible, and i don't disconnect every 10 bloody minutes! LOL :D..
Thankyou for all that put instructions on this thread, saved my computer from annihilation lol, coz i would have smashed it up soon if it kept messing up lol

THANKYOU AGAIN :)

Ive run into a problem

After searching for "fiesta" in all files and folders, I try to delete them, and some of them say they cannot be read, therefore cannot be deleted from the file or disk.

Of these, is a "beginners guide" file. Im guessing that file that opens the help menu for lv 1 players.
----------- nvm after deleting it like 5 diff ways and getting masssive error windows, it finally went POOF.
