    Problem:
    as titled. The game quit unexpectedly then had the error code.

    Details:
    I was in HT with guild mates. It happens twice.
    Once (yesterday) during HT main stage, once (today) during right head pre-stage.
    Strangely I didn't have any DC issue when playing alone. But it happens twice and both in HT with friends.

    What's the job of the character (WLSSS)?

    And did the issue occur anywhere else, and only in Horntail?

    I'm an arch mage FP. I didn't encounter this in other areas. It happens only in HT map.
    I was just hanging on the rope as my guild mate is helping me getting an HTP. It DC twice.

    What have you tried so far, such as reinstalling with IMG/WZ?

    When I DC for the first time, my guild mates suggested to change the Windows system language to "English (US)" because I used to use Chinese. Also they suggested to change the settings about non-unicode language to "English (US)" as well. I followed.
    Then during the game they also suggested I change the priority of the MapleRoyals process to "above normal". I followed too.

    That's all what I did. Then I got DC the second time. We then decided to report to forum as they have no idea what's happening.

    I didn't reinstall the game. My game is shown as "IMG" when playing.

    If someone else face the same issue, could you redirect them to report it on the Forums as well so that I may check with Devs about this error code

    I successfully got 1 HT run completed (a few weeks back). Then I didn't attend any HT run since then. But what I did was I updated my router before that specific run.
    In recent days I sometimes got DCed in cake boss.

    I feel it's a random network issue and probably can't be replicated easily. Feel free to close the thread first and I may report once again if the issue persists.

    Based on reports from other players, using a non-English system locale may cause this specific error code (-2147467261).

    If possible, please try the steps outlined in this thread or consider switching your system locale to English:
    https://royals.ms/forum/threads/alt...language-when-bossing-locale-emulator.246296/

    根據其他玩家的報告，使用非英文系統語系可能會導致出現錯誤代碼 (-2147467261)。

    如果可以的話，請嘗試這篇討論串中提到的方法，或考慮將系統語系切換為英文：
    https://royals.ms/forum/threads/alt...language-when-bossing-locale-emulator.246296/

    How to Change System Locale to English (United States) – Windows 10/11
    1. Press Windows + R, type control, then press Enter to open the Control Panel.
    2. Go to "Clock and Region" > "Region".
    3. In the "Region" window, click the "Administrative" tab.
    4. Under "Language for non-Unicode programs", click "Change system locale...".
    5. In the dropdown menu, select "English (United States)".
    6. Click OK, then Apply.
    7. Restart your computer when prompted.
    Note:
    This changes the system locale used for non-Unicode programs only. It does not change your display language. You can switch it back at any time using the same steps.

    如何將系統語系變更為英文（美國）－適用於 Windows 10 / 11
    1. 按下 Windows + R 鍵，輸入 control，然後按 Enter 鍵打開控制台。
    2. 點選「時鐘與區域」＞「區域」。
    3. 在「區域」視窗中，切換到「管理」標籤頁。
    4. 在「非 Unicode 程式的語言」下方，點選「變更系統地區設定...」。
    5. 從下拉選單中選擇「英文（美國）」或 "English (United States)"。
    6. 點選「確定」，然後「套用」。
    7. 系統會提示重新啟動，請點選「立即重新啟動」以套用變更。
    注意事項：
    這個設定只會影響「非 Unicode 程式」的語言（如 MapleRoyals 等遊戲），不會改變系統的顯示語言。若日後需要，也可以依相同步驟將語系改回原來的設定。

    Thank you for the thread. I actually changed it to English already after the 1st time DC. While it's good that I didn't got DCed for the 3rd HT run. I don't know if that's related to my English setting.
    Since during anniversary nobody is bossing, I will try it again after that.

    Will close and lock this thread for now

    Anyone else facing the same issue, please create a new thread and link this thread as reference
    https://royals.ms/forum/forums/character-issues.55/create-thread
    Note: it's difficult for me to keep track of the issue if multiple players comment on the issue but did not follow up accordingly (unable to confirm if it's the same issue)
