Guild Wars 2

I constantly get this error and I’ll bekittenif I can even stay logged in for 15 minutes without crashing. Does anyone have a fix for this yet?

The only thing i can say is. if you have a manufacturer OCed GPU underclock it. this worked for me and havent had an issue since. GW2 doesnt seem to like OCed cards. may be a driver issue but i think the game is just not optimized at all for ppls PCs

This is my DXdiag…

Yea just underclock your GPU 10-20% and u should be fine

I underclocked it to the lowest it can get and it still crashes… WTH!

We have to wait for a patch to play the game.

Underxlocking is not a fix, there’s something seriously wrong with the client itself.

I’ve had these crashes since day one. Completely random as well, everything from opening a dialog with a NPC or just walking around. These crashes does seem to happen alot more frequent in Lion’s Arch…

Are your graphics drivers updated? Latest Catalyst rev number is 12.8.

That is a crash in the game. More specifically, it’s an assertion that a calculated rectangle is valid, and presumably ought to be and isn’t. It’s a bug, send your crash dumps to ANet, let them fix the code. That’s pretty much all you can do.

NB: If you don’t get suitable ‘Send this crash report’ dialogs, report that as well (because you should) and consider turning on user mode dumping, so that Windows makes the crash dumps for you which you can then send by hand.

Edit: I should add it’s worth making sure you give as much detail about where you were when the crashes occurred, what settings you were running, because usually when the fundamental maths of a graphics system break (which is what it sounds like) something pretty weird is going on. One classic we had in our application was a crash we couldn’t reproduce until we realised the user started the app and then locked his machine – which meant the app booted up thinking the screen was 0 pixels wide. Stuff like that. Anything vaguely out of the ordinary that might help Anet find the problem.

Bump, still needs a fix!

I did not notice if you stated whether or not you have used the -repair option as yet.
I would try that. Just place -repair after the shortcut to the launcher.
