So.. coming back to FFXIV freezing on grind mode and quest mode issues.
After downloading all meshes again..
1. Quest mode:
Tested quest-mode with teleport (50-60 lattys heavensward) and.. I have to say that it worked a lot better than before because it didn't crash instantly or after 5 minutes! Actually it crashed after 40mins+ but I've never used quest mode for that long yet without a crash (usually had a crash after 5 mins, max. 10).
Actually the problem is not teleport hack, after turning it off and running my bot it still crashes instantly - so it looks like I'm in some place that has meshes error and this place. I've tried to re-download meshes again - no help this time.
So.. I didn't touch my bot and tried to run my bot 3 times in a row with crashes. What I did was:
before all those crashes (first crash) occured near NPC - looks like bot crashes when talking to npc (accepting quest, giving it out, not sure, but it's related to NPC right now)..
Then I started bot again - instant crash when enabling the bot
then again.. instant crash when enabling
then I moved away from NPC (not so far) and started the bot - it worked! It went to it again, talked, took the quest up (wtf?).. when it came back to the same NPC it crashed again when trying to talk with it! so I'm sure it's someway connected with NPC's and actions like talking to them or whatever.
I'm in the Dravanian Forelands in Anyx Trine, near this big dragon NPC called "Gullinkambi". After starting quest mode there I'm getting instant crash. After trying to complete a quest - crash.
Ess Khas - it's an NPC dragon in the same place as above - another crash AFTER accepting the quest - so it clicks on "accept", pop-up is gone and game is crashed.
Looks like I usually crash when accepting or completing a quest (in this moment when camera moves slightly from npc to my character).
Re-downloading meshes (did it like 3-4 times) didn't help so it can't be related to it.
I wish I help you someway with this informations, I'm back to testing! But I'm sure that it can't be connected with meshes when it sometimes crashes sometimes not. If it would be a problem with meshes it would crash all the time, am I wrong?
Obviously I'm not using "auto-start bot", I'm enabling my bot manually, because auto-start can cause issues. Also I'm testing it with teleport on and off, but I don't see that teleport is related to crashes anyway.
@update
Another NPC causing issues with freezes (accepting and completing the quests): wandering Gnath.
Completing "Advanced Vathematics" quest caused a crash.
Also found another issue, sometimes (I don't know why and when), bot is stopping doing nothing. When I move my character - it moves like 2-3 steps forward and stops again. If I disable and enable bot, it still does nothing. When I teleport to another place and start the bot - it works back normally.
It really looks like some (not all) NPCs which give quests are causing crashes when picking up or/and completing its quests.
@update2
Another hang after accepting "The mother of invention" quest (this is in different zone than two quests I mentioned above).
NPC Pierriquet - Coerthas Western Highlands
@update3
Another hang after 5 minutes on another NPC.. I'm done with questing, I give up, I'm moving to grind bot now.
2. Grind mode:
Started grinding on The Churning Mists.
