I had been playing WoW (installed with winetricks, not lutris) with minimal difficulties with any addons or performance for the last 6 weeks. After what I believe was a hotfix yesterday, I have been frequently disconnected in a 100% reproducable way with the following message: streaming error occured (WOW51900322). This occurs when either 1) loading several addons (which addons don’t really matter, the bigger the addons, the more likely to trigger the DC) or 2) attempting to transmog (even with no addons installed at all). I am using kubuntu 17.10.
Any other wow players having issues lately? I wouldn’t ask here unless I had seriously checked all other sources…
Glad I am not the only one. Lack of any info on wow forums was seriously frightening. Didn’t try to transmog, but learned that add-ons that “get info” from the server are triggering the error. For example, when I enable HandyNotes (marks of chests and rares on the map), disconnect happens when I open the map/fly to any possible location, where add-on tries to get info about “quest” linked to gathering a chest on this location. Same with other such add-ons. Purely UI add-ons work as intended.
I don’t have the error now. I have asked people to test really a lot of things, but still haven’t found anything. I keep thinking it has to do with retrieving information from the server, but somehow failing to get it correct.
Like I said somewhere before, I vaguely remember having similar issues with it some months ago (I think with same error). I would log in and get d/ced right away, I just kept logging in till I was in. I think it was around the time my connection to the servers wasn’t working perfectly, with some fluctuating ping (some spikes, and a packetloss here and there). I didn’t do anything to fix it, it was over after a while. I still suspect it had something to do with the blizzard network itself, but I can’t prove it in any way.
People are reporting that logging into your characters from a Windows installation and then copying your cache folder from Windows to Linux fixes the issue.
from time to time on the others when I either open the Map (always) or inspect people (always) or just randomly (sometimes)
It’s getting to a point where it is unplayable Really sad, I still miss the mage tower challenge with the feral druid and that char can’t login no matter where the game masters port me.
Even a complete reinstallation didn’t work.
Hi yes I’m having this error after downloading the pre-patch for BFA. I delete my cache folder, reset my wtf,Interface folders the problem still persists. On some toons I got a good 5 minutes then boom streaming error. I’m on Ragnaros -EU
