I got a crash shortly after the update as well. First time it's ever happened to me so I'm pretty sure it's related to the update.

I've been crashing whenever I logout and try to log back in. It's getting really annoying.

I'm joining the club. Crashing out, restart gw and it tells me I can reconnect (was in a mission)..attempt to and guess what...
Fantastic update content, **** poor quality control.

Same here, I crashed 4 times already and all i did was running around in LA. Not only that, the lower right corner of my screen keep flickering when I log in and sometime when I'm in town. Certain weapons made my heroes turn into a white box as well, they did turn back to normal when i take the weapon off.

There's a send e-mail link on the same window that reports the crash.
Send off the e-mail so they can debug it instead of posting it here were there's nothing they can do

new update, lets see if it helps
Etta
Yeah I did sent them the ticket, Dex. Also sent the report when the crash happen as well. Not much anyone can do now, right?
HKSdivision
I sent a ton of those email things and I also sent one through the Support on the GW.com website. But hopefully this update just fixed it.
furyore
any luck? im in an explorable area and everythings fine
Brother Andicus
Seems fixed. There is still a problem with 1024/768 and small interface size though.
milan
Don't assume that because we post here that we don't also submit a support ticket and/or allow the bug report to be sent automatically.

I'd say the slowdown in the number of posts about crashing is a good sign that the last update at least helped.
Etta
lol just crashed again.

I haven't crashed all day even after an image. No audio problems, no image problems no nothing. There truly is little that can be done in the way of community support if the problem is localized to a few specific hardware configurations.

I guess you missed the sarcasm!

Try this
Update Microsoft DirectX (Even if using Vista, it will update *some* of the DX9 layer files) - http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...displaylang=en
Especially update the following
Video card drivers = most current *official* driver
Sound card drivers = update, especially if your using on-board sound
Uninstall and Reinstall Guildwars (in case the update did not install correctly / corrupted files).
Advanced users, just rename gw.dat file, launch guildwars and see if the re-downloaded one has the same issue, if so, delete your smaller gw.dat file and restore your backed up one.
Defrag the gw.dat file on your hard drive - http://www.plaync.com/us/support/doc_5362.html?prod=48
If your doing a trouble ticket with Anet support. Make a copy of the GuildWars short cut
Right click on the copy of short cut, change "~~~~~~/gw.exe" to "~~~~~~/gw.exe" -diag
It will generate a detailed report about your hardware, network info and attach that file (it will be found in your gw folder) with the support ticket.

I'm also getting these crashes now as well. Two within half an hour of each other. I haven't had any problems for 22 months but after this update it's a disaster, unplayable.
Kuldebar Valiturus
Well, I've been getting restarts every few minutes. No hardware changes or any reason to suspect overheating in my system. This is the first time I've been playing for more than 1 hour since the big update.

If you have broadband, what you can do is delete the Gw.dat file, then create a shortcut on your desktop/quicklaunch(it's what I do), and use the switch -image.
Shortcut Target "C:\Program Files\Guild Wars\Gw.exe" -image
and it will redownload the client with all the patches. It usually takes an hour or two to download everything for me

You are suggesting that file is corrupt I suppose but the crashes are completely random and I can repeat an area that crashed previously and it doesn't crash the second time so that would suggest the Gw.dat is ok.
EDIT: Been playing another three hours and no crash so guess it is a rare combination of events and will probably be hard to fault find.
