Hey,

Any version of mIRC which has been released after 6.03 does have this bug for me, but since the dcc exploit i prefer using 6.12 wink



I hope this image makes more clear then 1000 words wink I have discovered that it's not only the first server but all servers my mIRC is connecting to at startup.

The EFNET server is the only one i connected to manually using /server -m efnet.vuurwerk.nl , and which doesn't crash.

As a addition i will add the script that i use to connect to the servers:

Code:
; Connecten naar servers
alias setupConnections {
  ; Verbinden met servers
  server nebula.sorcery.net
  server -m irc.tweakers.net
  server -m irc.rulez.nl
  server -m irc.skanshells.com
}

; Uitvoeren wanneer mirc gestart wordt
ON *:START: {
  ; Laden van de benodigde extra files
  if ($script(variables.ini) == $null) { .load -rv system\ini\variables.ini }
  if ($script(channelControl.mrc) == $null) { .load -rs $shortfn(%defaultPathMrc) $+ channelControl.mrc }
  if ($script(ctcp.mrc) == $null) { .load -rs $shortfn(%defaultPathMrc) $+ ctcp.mrc }
  if ($script(services.mrc) == $null) { .load -rs $shortfn(%defaultPathMrc) $+ services.mrc }
  if ($script(protection.mrc) == $null) { .load -rs $shortfn(%defaultPathMrc) $+ protection.mrc }
  if ($script(userControl.mrc) == $null) { .load -rs $shortfn(%defaultPathMrc) $+ userControl.mrc }
  if ($script(mp3Control.mrc) == $null) { .load -rs $shortfn(%defaultPathMrc) $+ mp3Control.mrc }
  if ($script(forFun.mrc) == $null) { .load -rs $shortfn(%defaultPathMrc) $+ forFun.mrc }
  if ($script($shortfn(%defaultPathTheme) $+ kte.mrc) == $null) { .load -rs $shortfn(%defaultPathTheme) $+ kte.mrc }
  setupConnections
}
 


I hope someone got an answer to this.

Thanks for reading!

Unload all of your scripts that you have running including any perform's, and then reply what happens.
my client doesnt do that with any server including nebula.sorcery.net.

Allright, i did that.

I unloaded all my scripts (checked the mirc.ini too) and restarted mirc. After a manually connect (/server irc.sorcery.net) mIRC still crashes frown

I told mIRC to keep my current settings while i installed it, so i removed my mirc.ini too, just te be sure.

Filled in some random things at the "Connect" Catagory (Full name, Email Address, nickname, etc) hit OK and again typed `/server irc.sorcery.net'. mIRC connected, and guess what! It worked fine.

But! When i change my nickname back to the one i want (Counter-Strike) and repeat the same sequence mIRC crashes again as described in my first post on this topic.

I found out that it DOESN'T crash when i leave the '-' out of my nick (CounterStrike).

Is there someone who can confirm this?

Thanks!

Yeah i thought it worked, but after a while it still crashes. Removing the - doesn't seem to help.

i'm getting a bit confused frown

there seems to be ODD glitches in mIRC 6.12.
example:
/q scripts
type that, a query window will open on ur desktop.
so i need to gather info to replicate your glitch
I know you may have said it b4, but tell me now.
Sever
Nickname(s)
Port
and ANY other info you can tell me weather it seems important to you or not, i dont care, i want it.

Allright, i still think it has something to do with the size of my nickname.

"Counter-Strike" crashes mIRC
"CounterStrike" crashes mIRC
"Strike" DOESN'T crash mIRC (even with all my scripts enabled)

I checked out the following:

Nickname
_234567890_2345 *
_234567890_234 *
_234567890_23 *
_234567890_2
_234567890_
_234567890
_2345678

* indicates that mIRC crashes ( in fact it does even crash while i'm not connected to a server, just clicking on the status window (in the same way as on the screenshot above) will show an empty tooltip and lets mIRC crash.

This means that mIRC crashes with Nicknames of 13 characters or more. All this testing has been done with newly installed mIRC version 6.12.

I use windows XP with the standard theme.

Hope this will help you guys!
