Got off of GW2 today and came back few hours later and the character select screen is this now. (see image).

I cant maximize the game but I hear the music for it. What is the launchers problem? Something got corrupt?

Those hard dark pixels in the middle of the image are the character icons and the green pixels are the achievements section its really small.

The black image in the center with the slightly red edges looks like an error dialogue box, likely a connection lost issue thing. What you can try doing is clicking on your running GW2 application on the task bar to make it the active window and then hitting your ESC key and/or your ENTER key to try to get that error box to close. Your program should return to its maximized state after that box is closed.

Alternatively, you can end task GW2 in your task manager or right-click your running GW2 in the task bar and try to close it that way. Relaunching the game should work normally again.

Lol I fixed it. I remembered an old trick with games with window bounding box problems.
When the game starts up it does so in a windowed white screen so I grabbed onto the bar while it was loading so the game couldn’t minimize itself if it was being controlled by my mouse so I got this funny screenie and the game back to normal after i resized it.

It was scaled down but just not able to maximize so I could rescale it to my own will.

lol
Well, glad to hear it’s fixed now. I use that ‘hold title bar to keep window from losing focus or minimizing’ trick often but I hadn’t considering trying that. Nice job
