The client/login process is terribly broken for some of us since U23 hotfix.

Oh for the love of the Twelve this. funny enough if I launch with the DDO preloader instead I don't have any issues at all so my guess is that Turbine isn't as good at figuring out what needs to preload as it's players are ... which is a very strange world to live in when you really think about it.
I was avoiding the preloader because I was too lazy to edit the file to autologin one of my alts that I have been playing lately but that will get fixed tonight.
Oh yeah and if you can figure out a fix the memory leak that happens when you log out one toon and into another without restarting the client that would be nice. At this point swapping more than twice starts causing stutter lag and a very noticeable delay in load screen times. And I am running a SSD, 12 Gb of RAM and an i7 so don't go point fingers at the system.

I see these posts everyday now but most seem to just go unanswered. I know I have answered many but do not have any true and tried solution. But I am almost certain something changed with the hot fix. I am working on finding a solution as I have not found one here as yet.
Will try to keep you posted on my personal crusade ;-}

U23 was really stable for me, the only nuisance was the splash screen endless download reentry. Otherwise that was a fine build.

I pretty much got the exact opposite. It's the first that I can recall that is giving me any issues.
Gotta love being in Turbine's shoes here eh!
That said using the third party pre-loader does resolve the issue 100% for me. Maybe Turbine should license it!

For folks who are still reporting "double log in" issues after the release of Update 23 and our hotfixes, are you also running the DDO Preloader, or have it installed? Did the "double log in" fix initially work, then stop working after one of our hotfixes, and if so, can you remember which one?

I did not have the problem at all prior to any of the patches and hotfixes, it only materialized for me after the last hotfix.
I do have the third-party pre-loader installed and I do not see the same issues when I use the pre-loader.

I do not use the DDO preloader, or have it installed.
I am unsure if the fix initially worked or not as from habit I would log a character unaffected by the issue, but I tried a different character the other day and I was still getting the issue on them.

I'm loading fine but swapping a char is about 95% chance at red box, not using a preloader.

Thank you for your reply,
After the initial u23 release I logged in immediately with no problem (I almost always had double logs in's before this). I did a couple of months ago try to install a preloader but did not do this successfully (and I reinstalled DDO after this).
Then we had the patch shortly after the U23 and I went to having to log in up to five times to get into the game. This is not always but often, some times I just give up and do something else as I have limited play time.
As far as I know I only saw on hot fix and this was soon after the U23. I have had this problem since week after the u23 came out. Sorry I don't have the date.

I have not used preloader or any other unofficial app.
(The only unofficial app i used was pyLotro to help do the initial game patch after a fresh DDO setup, for some reason the base client install would not connect to the patch server.)
Pre U23: Multi login attempts very frequent, the client would often "hang" vs "crash to desktop".
U23: Multi logins are no more, "yay", client is surprisingly stable, very rare CtD.
U23hotfix: revert to pre U23 states, launcher crashing, i solved it a few instances by reinstallign everything, but its not a good long term solution, as a full reinstall takes few hours with the repatching process.

I have been using preloader before U23 and never had to log in twice. After U23, I have been still using preloader (even tho it should be a part of the launcher now) and it was working as well. After the first hotfix, it stopped working. I have tried to open launcher with and without the original preloader but with no luck.
Also I have win 7, 86 bit if does it matter in any way.
