Crafting Tool Client Crash

Crafting Tool Client Crash

I have an unmodified RunUO (base install).
The server UO was installed with an AoS install (patched to current).

I have some clients that crash anytime they attempt to use a craft tool (smiths hammer, tongs, sewing kit, etc).
Thier UO install is a pre-AoS CD (patched to current).

The RunUO screen just shows them disconnected as soon as they click the tool.
The client see's themselves in game, but are unable to do anything and eventually disconnect.

I have other clients with my AoS install and we can use craft tools without issue.
Does everyone on my server have to have an AOS install or is it something else?

Incidently, the same thing occurs when the use a house placement tool as well.

What could be the cause of this and how can I fix it?

i haven't had any experience before, but the clues show that this is a client side issue.

do all of your preAOS clients crash? if not, make sure that they have patched correctly

there is no difference between clients.

Its exactly the same client....If they are updated.

All clients are updated from UO and are the latest version.
I just did a complete reinstall of UO and RunUO and it is still occuring.
Has anyone heard of this before?
I agree it sounds like a client thing, but 40% of my testers cant test because of this.
Helpo me mucho

there is an issue with some long strings being sent to the client causing crashes. This has been most commonly been reported with long player names. I would check that.
