Guild Wars 2

Ill keep this short because I know anyone who is having this has experienced at least.

Crashes when they log into a certain character
Crashes after an unspecified amount of time
Crashes constantly from a corrupt data file called MainCLP(with some weird 3 digit number here)

HERE IS THE FIX,

1.Step one uninstall GuildWars 2
Reason: You need a fresh slate, this corruption is commeing from somewhere
2. After Re installation and full updating go to the directory where you installed Gw2
3. Copy a file named Gw2.dat It should be the biggest file you have
Extra Instructions: Copy it into a folder somewhere else where you will remember where it is.
Reason: This is a clean slate, nothing is wrong with this data file. If for whatever reason unbeknownst to us mortals WHY in the future your Data file gets corrupt you can now just replace it within the span of 10 minutes or so depending on how fast your hard drive is…instead of it taking the course of a day re-downloading the game.

I understand many people who have this problem are extremely frustrated, believe me I am to still. However this fixed just saved me another agonizing night of re downloading GW2

Extra instructions: Even though this is a very obvious thing to remember: Please always copy and paste your back up Data file instead of just moving it, you dont want to loose your clean slate incase the new one gets corrupt -.-

Stay strong, you can do this.

Thanks to a Mod who re-made my title

You don’t need a corrupted file for GW2 to crash. It happens all the time due to server-side issues with the game engine and/or the server in/out bandwidth, and a sparkly clean GW2.dat file won’t save you from it. The game tends to crash at fairly predictable (not "unspecified) times, particularly when large data updates are required, such as when porting or when you find yourself in the middle of a lot of players (or even a lot of NPCs).

Yet another fix that does not work, because the problem is not the client side only but the server side. Someone needs to take a hammer and whack a mole.
