LUA errors everywhere

FrancisCrawford

I'm finding the game basically unplayable due to UI/LUA errors. For example, I can't use a guild store AT ALL, even after deactivating Master Merchant and other trading add-ons. When I try, I get errors such as:

EsoUI/Ingame/TradingHouse/Keyboard/TradingHouse_Keyboard.lua:243: function expected instead of nil

I also get errors all the time like the following, on a fairly advanced Level 50 character:

EsoUI/Ingame/SkillsAdvisor/SkillsAdvisor_Manager.lua:268: operator < is not supported for number < nil
stack traceback:
EsoUI/Ingame/SkillsAdvisor/SkillsAdvisor_Manager.lua:268: in function 'SkillsAdvisor_Singleton:RefreshVisibleAbilityLists'
EsoUI/Ingame/SkillsAdvisor/SkillsAdvisor_Manager.lua:109: in function 'SkillsAdvisor_Singleton:UpdateSkillBuildData'
EsoUI/Ingame/SkillsAdvisor/SkillsAdvisor_Manager.lua:36: in function '(anonymous)'

FrancisCrawford

The used to be a setting to increase the memory allocated to LUA, but I can't find it now. Also, I vaguely remember there being an announced change to deprecate that, perhaps in connection with making the allocation automagic.

Does anybody recall the story more clearly?

FrancisCrawford

Error message when I try to access the guild store from another character. It looks identical or very similar to the previous one, although that character has a different set of add-ons enabled.

I am told that inability to interact with guild stores is not unique to me.

DarcyMardin

Having similar problems. I didn’t save screenshots, but I kept getting error messages and getting stuck in merchant and banking screens and having to force-close the program.

FrancisCrawford

I just got stuck at the woodworker merchant in Vivec City and had to force close the game.

I just did some crafting writs in Vivec City and had the Skills Advisor error pop up approximately 10 different times.

I do suspect these problems of being worse in Vivec City than elsewhere. E.g., I could actually interact with guild stores in Rawl'kha, both via the guild traders and the bank.

But I also got the Skills Advisor error while dealing with Rolis Hlaalu outside Wayrest.

To be fair, the add-ons are outdated now, as a game update was released today.

Which add-on do you suggest is interacting badly with the BRAND NEW skills advisor???

And did you read the part where I offered evidence that even in the banking case this behavior is independent of add-ons?

FrancisCrawford

Mercifully, there's a workaround for the Skills Advisor error -- turn the whole thing off!

After the update I started getting this error every time I try to use a merchant to sell trash items...I have no clue if its an actual UI error or related to addons I'm using. I tried disabling all the addons I use that might in any way affect merchants but nothing helps. Once I get the error I can't use my keyboard to do anything, not even ESC works and I have to close ESO and restart the game.

Shut of all addons and see if you still get errors. This is common when the Ali is uppdated.

Hercules_Gaming

I was getting this same error. For me disabling the "ESO Master Recipe List" list add-on removed the error.

Reverb

update your addons, then disable the "allow out of date" option, see if the problem goes away. If it does, re-enable out of date ones one (or a few) at a time until you identify the one that's problematic.

If you are running Item Preview, that's the likely culprit.

ZOS_Bill

The LUA errors you are receiving are a result of outdated add-ons. Until those add-ons are updated, we recommend disabling them for the time being. If you still get errors after disabling add-ons, you may need to manually remove them following the steps found here.

Jennifur_Vultee

ESO Master Recipe List seems to be a leading culprit in this issue. After guild mates were discussing the UI errors one said turn ESO Master Recipe List off, I did and the errors immediately went away. I turned the addon back on and the error came back. I would have never suspected a recipe addon was the problem.

Meryyl

Same here. Lag, stuttering, errors. Deleted recipe maker. All is good in Tamriel.

I never had the Master Recipe add-on.

But the add-on updates I did download today (Tuesday -- Monday's weren't enough) seem to have largely fixed the problem.

Disabling ESO Master Recipe List fixed all these errors for me as well.
