Previewing weapons can lead to game crash
Just saw someone had already opened a similar thread: https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/support/bugs/Weapon-preview-causing-crashes/
Since yesterday’s patch, previewing weapons (maybe other equipment too, I have not tested this), whether it’s browsing through a merchant’s inventory or using a weapon container like from story mission rewards, leads to the game crashing. Not instantly, but soonish (after switching between the various preview modes or previewing several in sequence).
Please fix this new bug. I’ve already sent in several error/crash reports.
P.S. Clearing the cache or restarting the computer does nothing to prevent this from happening, and since I’ve never encountered this issue before the latest patch, I must assume it’s a bug in the game code. The error log states something about weapon models and display modes.
P.P.S. Switching to Guild Chat (text chat) and pressing enter after typing something to send it can also potentially lead to the game crashing instantly.
