Battlelog Plug In - Mozilla Firefox - Infinite Loading

[ Edited ]
★★ Novice

Hey, I'm having a problem.

 

Everything related to multiplayer doesn't load, when I'm in Battlelog. It won't load friends or servers or even battlepacks. Everytime I try, it just shows this loading square going up and down. But nothing happens. Even after like 10 minutes or more.

 

This happened after my game crashed yesterday due to a GPU error. This is the first time my game crashed.

 

I restarted my PC and this problem occured. I tried to use another browser.

When I opened Battlelog, everything seemed to work fine, but when I installed the Plug In, "Loading..." Square and stuff.

 

My RIG:

Intel Xeon E3-1230 v3

nVidia GeForce GTX 780 (Palit)

8 GB RAM

 

I have tried:

Reinstalling the PlugIn, but somehow it didn't really work. I deleted the folder in C:\Program Files(x86)\Battlelog Web Plugin or whatever that folder was called.

Reinstalling DirectX from the Install Folder.

GPU Drivers are up to date.

 

Thanks for the help.

I had this suddenly happen as well.

As ragnarok013 mentioned about Script Blockers, my cause was with NoScript. Even though I had everything allowed in NoScripts preferences, I had to completely disable the add-on to get the servers to load again.

I assume a recent add-on update (NoScript 2.6.9.32) caused this as the add-on had not interfered before now.

 

Hope it helps.

 

 

UPDATE:

After messing around more with the script blocker, I discovered that suddenly any script blocker (Including NoScript and Ghostery) that blocked any/all of the Facebook and Twitter cookies, would cause the servers to not load. Does not matter what version of the add-on is installed. With Blockers on but all Facebook and Twitter spyware allowed, BF4 works as it should again. Google Services turned off did NOT disable the servers.

 

I guess this is something EA setup recently. I suppose EA is making some sort of revenue from the Twitter/Facebook  c.r.a.p.?

Turn off any adblock or flashblocker software in the browser and go into your add on security settings and white list the battlelog plugin and ESN sonar plugin.

AdBlock is deactivated for the website and in my Add-ons Battlelog Game Launcher is on "Always Activate".

 

Strangely, I don't have the ESN Sonar Plugin.

 

Maybe its because of the Flash problems right now, because I think Firefox deactivated Flash to prevent security breaches.

But that would still raise the question, why it worked yesterday and after a game crash, it stopped. I don't think the problems lies there.

 

As the others have already said, it seems that Firefox has some problems with it right now.

 

I have tried using Chrome for it, and I finally managed to get it to work.

 

But I would still like to know, how to fix this problem, because I don't really like using Chrome.

 

BTW, thanks for the help.

Hey,

 

thanks for the heads up.

 

I tried messing around with NoScript and just discovered, that everything works fine if you activate most of the scripts.

 

The thing I hadn't allowed was one of the Google scripts.

And I had to allow the Twitter Button in Ghostery.

 

Thanks for the help.
