Moving my character

Use WASD . . no this isn't that basic

I have recently moved to Uni and now only have a laptop that just barely runs GW's on lowest settings.
I found some builds for Necros (Sab's i believe) that are great for hardmode in Ascalon and other 4/4 party areas.
I took a few PvE GW:EN skills including Summon Ruby Djinn and i thought i'd take a break from HM and farm some Asura Rep

Heres the problem, Ratsa Sum apparently needs a better graphics card than Ascalon and now when i try to login i get booted with a crash message

Is there anyway to move my character without logging in?
I can play some areas but not GW:EN i can live with that but i'd rather be able to play those than be stuck with a stupid graphical error that means i can't get on the character

*log onto another toon in your stable, one in a quieter area ..
then rezone that toon to International or Russian districts, ie somewhere less populated ...
then switch to your toon in Rata Sun ~ hopefully will not crash because there's fewer people there ..

Thanks but that didn't work
It must be all the floating stuff the Asura have that kills my graphics

If i sent a ticket to NCSoft can they move characters? or i could find someone with a better computer and just move on theirs
Shame that Proph and Factions run (i went looking for skills in both so i know they do) but GW:EN doesn't

Find someone else in your uni who plays, log in there and move your character.

Go to the options and put the Graphics-quality to low. Login, move Char, and put Graphics back to normal. This might work^^

Setting your graphics performance lower in the F11 menu does not help. I had this same problem with my desktop. If I'm correct, you get a GW screen in the background, which you can only enter by using alt-tab, saying GW has to close due to an unrepairable graphics error. The window also gives you a link I thought. Anyways, only way to solve this is to log in on that character on another computer which can handle Rata Sum, and then move to a town which your own computer is able to handle. Make sure you do something in that town, like talking to a merchant, because if you log out to soon, the location of your character will not get saved. Oh, and busy districts have (little to) nothing to do with your graphics. A graphics error is caused by an unsupported video card, not by other people.

Good luck.

Pm me your log on details, I'll move your toon for you.

No? ok, but dont say i didnt ask.

seriously, i think the best option will be as advised above, find a pc that can handle it and move from there

Have you tried running in -dx8 mode?

Did not work for me. And I don't think this will make any difference in this case, because DirectX is not tied to the graphics card.
