I can't get into any of the Sschindylryn quets, the doors wont show up.

[Xeno5k]

Title summarizes it, I've acquired house of rusted blades, house of death undone, and house of broken chains, but the door to the quest will not show up. I can stand in front of the entrance to house of death undone and all I see is a yellow swirl on a blue wall i can't target anything or even see a door. House of rusted blades there isn't even a yellow swirl its just an empty wall no door no nothing. I submitted a ticket but no answer yet. This has been going on since last night. I've logged in multiple times and I've abandoned the quests and re-acquired them to no avail.

[relenttless]

For a while I had the same thing occur with "don't drink the water" - the well simply wasn't there and I couldn't enter the quest.
Is it just on one toon or on all of your characters?
I fear a re-install is the solution, which is what I ended up doing

None of my other toons are flagged, so for now its just that one.

This is very smart, you should follow his advice.

[bartharok]

I had that problem yesterday, but it seemed like it ws caused by some update process, since it went away after my computer was done updating something.

[slarden]

Sounds buggy -if you picked up quests and found wilderness the quests should show up. Not sure how to force it, but maybe the server restart today will fix it.

You can try making the run again.

[Amundir]

It appears the drow are growing smarter.

[moomooprincess]

When no one else is complaining about it, you need to assume it is on your end.

Looks like a graphics issue to me. Some objects are not being drawn on your end for some reason.

Sometimes, when the lag wave hits, doors won't show up for minutes at a time. Weird as hell

[AnEvenNewerNoob]

Had an issue like this once with a gianthold quest (Trial iirc). Nothing we did got us a window. We recalled out of the wilderness, reset the wilderness instance, and were able to get in no problem after that.

I've had this happen sporadically trying to get into several of the options (Beyond the rift, ES cavern, etc) from the demonweb entrance off the harbor. Usually only lasts a minute or two. Sometimes I go talk to the npc and it fixes it, other times it just organically rights itself.

[Theolin]

That Ok once the lag clears and you do get in the door disappears so you cannot get out on all those quests muwhahahaha

[Six_Gun]

It's a cost cutting and lag saving measure.

[Amundir]

At this point you check your inventory for your grappling hook, find the closest window or ledge, and hope you put enough points in your use rope skill. Killers....err.....adventurers find a way!

So I'm thinking of reinstalling the game through steam, anyone think that'll help?

[Xeno5k]

Here is the latest from the turbine support "The issue you have described has been recorded for review by the In-Game Support team but is not an issue that we can assist with." Guess I'm reinstalling.

[Xeno5k]

I reinstalled the game through steam and for now it seems to work. In retrospect I should have done this a long time ago. Steam has a feature called "Verify integrity of game cache" which allows you to patch a game if you experience bugs like this, it was super effective for Ark:Survival Evolved which is buggy as all hell too.

[Cocomajobo]

Glad to see that you were able to get this resolved by installing the steam client!

I'll do some poking around tomorrow to make sure this was a one time weird occurrence and not likely to repeat.

Just like to add that I was the Group Leader for the Kings Forest {yes we did the three quests in KF and Battle for Eveningstar} and Schindylrynn runs last night {well yesterday morning for me} and that I pointed the OP towards these forums after literally everything that I and the rest of the group told him to try didn't work - we ended up running all 3 Houses {no-one else in the Group had any issues whatsoever getting into them} while the OP tried and failed to get into each one of them.

Earlier tonight {well again this morning for me} I was running the Demonweb Quests and the OP joined and asked if he needed to be flagged - Now of course I had to tell him after checking whether he'd managed to get the Schind quests done that unfortunately he wasn't.
I then took him through King's Forest and the Underdark TO Schindylrynn {because he told me that he had previously got to Schind by way of the Demonweb Portal} and ran him up to House of Rusted Blades where yet again he was unable to see the door {which was right there in front of me}.

I'm also glad that reinstalling via Steam has fixed the OP's issues but I do feel that Steam should NOT be required if anyone else has these issues - I for one would not install Steam on my Laptop as I have no intentions of playing any other game but DDO.

[Zarquine]

A while ago I had similar problems. Mobs were no where to be seen in wildernes areas but I took damage by them (mostly casters). I took another player with me and he confirmed that there was a caster.

Then the Canntih crafting shrines on guildship and in the crafting halls disappeared...

I am playing DDO from an USB stick (USB 3.0, less lag then from HDD, until I can effort a SSD) and just copied the game from the HDD on the stick again and it worked for a while, then the weird things happened again. After a while it was clear that the stick was nearing the end of his life.

I am not saying your HDD is faulty, just that the DDO install was probably beginning to get corrupt.

Agreed! That's why, as I mentioned, I'll be seeing if it can be reproduced internally today. =]

Steam likely just downloaded some file(s) that were missing/corrupted/wonky. A thorough file check via launcher or general reinstall probably could have similarly resolved it.

Let's roll with that. This proves once again one does not simply walk into House Dun'Robar.

walk into or walk out of?

[LrdSlvrhnd]

I've had this happen a fair amount, usually with wilderness entrances but occasionally with quest entrances. Most recently this happened on Sunday night, and as it happens a guildie was live-streaming (https://ddoeven.wordpress.com/2016/07/12/the-cursed-lag-of-jack-jibbers/)... and it happened to her as well. (Although, in my experience, it's usually the whole party, not just one, and the window does eventually pop up... sometimes after you've given up and run off to do something else - which happened to my guildie a couple nights ago (https://ddoeven.wordpress.com/2016/07/14/sleepless-in-thelanis/). So maybe it's something completely different...)

AGREED. Im not installing anything else to play this game. when that day comes, you all can fight over my stuff

[Mandelia]

I had something similar happen to me awhile ago. After I did a drive check for errors and changed my virtual memory size it seemed to clear up, but occasionally I will run into the bug after memory has leaked and will have to do a system reboot to clear it up.

[Cocomajobo]

After some poking around today I haven't been able to identify a systemic issue internally. I'm still being cautious due to the reports of entire parties not being able to see/interact with the objects in question so if you run into this type of thing again please let me know.
