Danger: Demonbuddy game creation causing crashes.

Danger: Demonbuddy game creation causing disconnects for you and everyone else!

I've tested this and confirmed that this is a problem.

Demonbuddy creates games and runs whatever profile.
User stops the bot and tries to create their own game.
User is disconnected and as far as I know everyone on friends list is disconnected as well.
User will continue to be disconnected as long as they try to create a game, but demonbuddy can create a game fine.
User must select another character, then switch back to the character they want to play.
User can now create a game without being disconnected.

I had a few friends who would continually get disconnected every time this happened.
Test it out you can recreate the bug easily.

Actually this just happend to me ; )

All clan members went woosh ; p

Pretty scary and can kill a lot of clan members on HC ; /

my poor clan mates!

Yea, I'm kinda worried if Blizzard is going to look at these sudden disconnects and somehow find the root of the problem. Since we are the first to be disconnected followed by everyone else... We disconnect and take everyone with us.

Btw. That is realllllly gonna suck for HC players. Wipe out an entire clan? lol yikes

If this is true it needs to be looked in to immidiately!

i have the same problem as well. i can no longer create private games without using demonbuddy. i also tried switching characters and going back to my original that i was using. everytime i try to create a game without going through demonbuddy i get a....

nevermind i just tried to make a game and it worked?

You have to switch to another character and then switch back to the character you want to create a game with and it will work.

 

[snakkes]

So is this true?

Any mods looking into it?

This happens in the game and is between the client and demon buddy. I have no problem creating games because as I said there is a way around the bug after you get disconnected. Since these disconnects are affecting so many people it's a rather large issue. If you don't believe me just try and recreate the bug. It "works" every time.

hmm you all realize that its blizzard's end and not demon buddy? i mean like i am not sure what you are talking about, but the last 2 days its been a widespread problem of disconnects from battle.net, random times, i went all day today without 1 dc, and now tonight its every 10 minutes, and i wasnt or havent ran DB in a few hours now, i can create play just fine, legitly, and none of my other friends bot and they are getting dc'ed too...so...again not sure what you guys are talking about that DB is causing it, its blizzard's d3 server, last night it had "authentication" problems...it went down completely for awhile

So just pointing it out that i dont think its DB causing this issue? why do all my friends who dont bot, get dc'ed too? and it doesnt affect everyone, just certain people, its weird, but i just chocked it up to d3's server....are you saying its more than that?

Yes there are posts about this on battle.net .. It is not a DB issue. Blizz just has something going on atm. Server acting up or something... Shrug.

Emergency maintenance incoming in 17 minutes.

Well try what I said and tell me if you don't get disconnected.

Start demon buddy.
Let it run a profile for a minute.
Pause it.
Leave the game.
Try to create a new game.

Because every single time I follow these steps I get disconnected and I don't know how many other people do.

Heads up.. I have confirmed this. Buddy on my friends list who bots with DB is crashing everyone on friends list and tons of people in large clan everytime he starts/joins a non-bot game after running a DB session. . He can log the bot in fine with demonbuddy, but when he starts or tries to join someones game it instantly boots everyone in friends list and tons of people in clan.

 

[Fukinkou]

Well shit. I'm getting randomDC's like every 15 minutes atm...

 

[Bower_Z]

Every game my Gold per hour, exp every thing gets reset after awhile the bot stops working but the game is fine. Im lost i tried alot of things.

*nm I fixed it by using ezupdater and bountieplugin
