Okay. We think we have a bead on what is happening with the keyboard, though it’d be good to get some confirmation from some of you.

Open Terminal, and run the game via command line. If installed in the default location, this would look like:

open /Applications/Guild\ Wars\ 2\ 64-bit.app/Contents/MacOS/GuildWars2

This will open a second Terminal window that will fill with text as the game runs. Play the game as per normal until you encounter the bug. Quit the game. Once the game is shut down the Terminal window should have a final line saying “[Process completed]”. If you could save the entire log from this window and post it that would help us confirm our suspicion and get us one step closer to resolving this frustrating bug!

Saving the log:

1. ?A (Edit > Select All) will select the contents of the window
2. ???C (Edit > Copy Special > Copy Plain Text) will copy the now selected contents
3. Open TextEdit or your favorite text editor
4. ?V (Edit > Paste)
5. Save the file
6. Reply to this thread with the file as an attachment

Thank you!

oooh, Bug hunting!
Sounds like a nice event to happen.
Should we Mac 64-bit users LFG, fight this mystery boss foe together?

Will run the Mac 64-bit from terminal all the time, just in case I encounter the BIG Boss Bug.

Well, initial run from Terminal, it starts out from giving a Warning of the same kind multiple times, like this:

[66154:1291:WARNING:resource_bundle.cc(303)] locale_file_path.empty()
Renderer Log: [66209:1291:WARNING:resource_bundle.cc(303)] locale_file_path.empty()

This is just short start up and running around LA.
No BIG Bad Bug Boss encountered, yet.

BTW, just a thought.

Can someone create an AppleScript or Automator script, so that by double-clicking/opening it, the 64-bit Mac GW2 app will run from the Terminal?
Even more, anyone in ANet create this, and post a ‘official’ download link to make it safe for all Mac users to monitor and test?

Game Update Notes – August 8, 2017
MAC CLIENT

*The Full-Screen Gamma control now works.

Can all these be confirmed?

Well, self-testing, self-replying.

Yes, the control knob does work.
But, the actual Gamma does not change…
Halfway there, sorta.

Game Update Notes – August 8, 2017
MAC CLIENT
*Further refinement to keyboard layout handling.
*Fixed an issue in which apparent momentum blocked the mouse from moving with various controls.
*Fixed issues in which the Dock popped into view while in full screen.
*The Full-Screen Gamma control now works.
*The Vertical Sync checkbox now works.
*Fixed an issue in which some UI elements drew lines across the screen.
*Updated the client launcher to be rendered in the native screen resolution on retina screens.

Can all these be confirmed?

Moira Shalaar.5620:

I ask that you please do not do this yet. The new 64bit client would be wonderful . . . If it were stable. However it crashes so frequently that it currently makes playing any high level content (fractals, raids, dragon stand, etc.) impossible. Please hold off on limiting access to download the (stable) 32 bit client until the new client is at least at a comparable level of stability.

+1 and a zillion

PLEASE DO NOT destabilize the Mac GW2 playability!
Make 64-bit native ‘par’ to the Win version first, then retire the 32-bit Mac ‘wrapper’ app later. Not now.

Hi again!

Something I have been experiencing lately, but not totally sure when I noticed this to happen.

After logging in, and clicking ‘Ready’, playing in ‘windowed’ mode, I get the “Untitled” window, BUT the window is blank/black, nothing happens, and I cannot do anything from there, except for move my mouse cursor around although unable to click anything. I am totally locked out from the system: even cannot bring up the ‘Force quit’ dialogue with the key combo, just frozen, only to long-press the power button to restart the Mac. This has happened randomly, as in most cases, the Untitled window will properly display the characters to play. Most times it’s okay, but the lock-out/semi-freeze occasionally occurs. After restarting the system, I do not get any ‘crash report’ window, so I do not know if there is any log to check what has caused this lock-out/freeze after clicking ‘Ready’.

BTW, although I know I am way under-spec, my Mac is MacBook Pro (13-inch, Early 2011), 2.3 GHz Intel Core i5,16 GB 1333 MHz DDR3, Intel HD Graphics 3000 512 MB, El Capitan 10.11.6?15G1611). I have been running the wrapped 32-bit client on this for quite a long while now. Not great, but okay to play. Yes, definitely want it to be better, and very much look forward to having the native 64-bit Mac app, which ‘should’ make things better, even for my under-spec Mac.

Jon Olson.8439:

For those having the keyboard problem, is it keyboard layout related.. i.e. is the game switching layouts on your or some other behavior?

In my own experiences, it is not a keyboard layout issue. More like key input does not work at all, kind of issue, like as the keyboard is not connected. Oddly, in most cases, the mouse cursor works, and you are able to click on things to do most of what you want. Problem here is that even if the crash report window pops up, you cannot type anything into it.

But, in some rare and severe crashes, you might hear the game sound, but no input what so ever is possible, not even the mouse, only to force-quite the GW2 64-bit app.

In any case, I am very thankful for bringing the native GW2 app to life, and understand the ‘growing pain’ on both sides that have to go through to make this the ‘real deal’. Very much look forward to the time this becoming ‘full grown’. Hopefully soon.
Please keep up to good work, yet also keep us posted!

Mark Katzbach.9084:

Mac Client

• Fixed an issue in which the command-key symbol was not shown in some contexts.
• Enabled use of the minimize button in windowed mode.
• Fixed keyboard navigation behavior in text boxes.
• Improved the support for non-US keyboard layouts.
• Improved the rendering of some visual effects..

Thanks for the native Mac client!
And, Thanks to continuing development of it!
VERY MUCH look forward to the day this becoming a finished Mac games.

PLEASE keep up to great work!

Can we have Golden Fractal, or color-changing Glider skin for those that have crafted the Legendary Ad Infinitum back piece? It could even be an additional item you purchase with Golden Fractal Relics, but for only those that have successfully crafted the Ad Infinitum. Reason I ask, is since crafting the Legendary Ad Infinitum back piece is a huge task, the rewarded Glider skin does not have all the ‘frills’ nowadays glider skin have. Something like a makeover, for the highest level back piece / Glider, please…???

orenwolf.1953:

Wine 2.0 was just released, which has 64 bit support, amongst other things. It might be the solution to fix crashes while we wait for the native client:

http://appleinsider.com/articles/17/01/26/wine-reaches-milestone-version-20-release-with-64-bit-support-and-retina-compatibility-for-macos

Any chance of getting this in the wrapper as a workaround until the mac client is released?

Just noticed this article as well, and just from the title, I was jumping up & down in my heart, that we could finally be out of the “Beta” status. And with 64-bit support, maybe more FPS and playability? Are Mac GW2 players still asking for too much?

PLEASE ANet!
Official Mac client (non-Beta), and 64-bit support!!!

Djinn.9245:

I don’t like the snowball packs – when you open them the snowballs fly out in a circle from your character making impossible for me to use more than 3 of them before they disappear. I could possibly use 4 by throwing faster, but I already miss enough times.

Its like a bad carnival game tricking me out of my money.

If you don’t want a solution, that’s fine; just don’t do the daily. If you want to do it, this is an easy and fairly quick method and the gift you get from completing it more than covers the cost of the snowballs, let alone the daily reward. The snowball packs are slightly over 2 silver each and you don’t need more than three.

I did a screenshot of the exact place I stand for this. Works easily without getting aggro. Hope it helps.

THIS totally worked for me, after several very disappointing attempts outside this area. Solo-ed with several packs of snowballs, stood as in the image, and shot. Had to use 4 bundles, but I could see the percentage go up as I hit. Need to hurry to finish before the snowballs ‘melt away’.

That being said, still this is not fun, and very much bugged.
Fix please, ANet.

Talek.6795:

Chaps, we have some very good news news from the latest AMA with devs:

Mac Client
-We have new build servers coming online.
-We are beginning to expand the client to internal teams to increase testing.
We will release an alpha version of the client for experimental use (like we did with the 64-bit Windows client) when it’s building and running internally on a consistent basis. It will probably require a bit of Mac smarts to install it so it will be for hardened explorers only.

Dulfy

AWESOME!!!

Just can’t wait, but only will believe it when I have it.

Ummm… ALL THE ABOVE, pretty please… :P

Love this thread. A TON of great ideas, and definitely many that should be implemented soon.

One more feature request from me:
Like Bag slots, make Bank slots’ order re-arrangeable.
And also, make this re-arrangeable while still stuff in the individual grid slots.
Went buying a new Bank slot with Gems, the newly purchased one always goes to the bottom-last location.
To better organize your stuff in the bank, wouldn’t you like to have all the frequently moved things at the top of the Bank, while the less-moved things to the bottom of the bank?
The new & empty Bank slot added at the bottom does not work well with this organizing scheme.
Maybe adding the newly purchased Bank slot to the top of the Bank would be the better & easier solution here?
Please?

Hey there, ANET!

First off, TYTYTY for the “Salvage All” option! LOVE IT!!!
Definitely an improvement in player QoL!

Most of my QoL suggestions are already listed here, so for the ones that are similar, I will list below, closer to the end.

But, I do have a few somewhat different suggestions for QoL.

1. Right now, for the Experience earned, once the bottom Yellow bar is full/maxed-out, reached next level, there is only a very subtle & barely noticeable sign saying so. Until you click the lower-right corner, whatever Experience you’ve earned, will be just wasted. Please give a much more clearer & BIGGER centered on-screen notification once you’ve reached max. I do not like wasting precious & hard-earned Experience. I think no one does.

2. Also for this same reason, I would also like to have an Experience ‘Pool’ to hold the overflowing & excess earned Experience, so you can allocate this to the next Experience progress. Something like a ‘role-over’ minutes for your cellphone calling.
This could also be done by adding a system to enable you to select the primary, and also the secondary Mastery track level. Once the primary track has maxed out, the excess Experience will be added to the secondary track automatically. No waste of precious Experience, better QoL for all!

3. Not sure if this has been mentioned, but I would like to be able to purchase even more Bag slots which is limited to 9 bags, to even 10 or more bags. More to room to carry and to collect, the better QoL!

4. And not sure if anyone here has asked for this:
Mac-native application, and 64-bit Mac client!!!
Way better QoL for all Mac users!!!

5. Have an easily accessible account-wide “Converter (Gizmo) holder” in your Inventory, separately, so that from any Character, you can ‘eat’ & convert any Karma/dust/ore/crystal/etc of your choice by all the converters your have.

Okay, from here, a list of all things I would like to see in-game soon, which many others have also mentioned here. I guess one more voice should help push a little towards having these QoL features come true.
6. Key Ring
7. Build save, and exchangeable Templates, Both Skills & Gears
8. Account-wide Gathering tools (and Converters)
9. Open All earned Chests/Boxes/Bags/etc. in your inventory
10. Glide disable/enable option

Please keep more & more of all these great QoL suggestions here in this tread to come to reality & soon!

And again, TY ANET!

Andrew Bourgeois.4023:

I have a +20 and multiple +17 infusions.

Even if they add these to the vendor to downgrade them to 9, I’ll be losing 2047 reagents (= 300 gold) from the +20 downgrade alone. I also have around 6 +17 so add another 200g loss from those.

Exactly!

Downgrade/breakdown to lesser AR infusions, for FREE?
I do not get any of my money back for all the reagents I’ve bought to craft the higher ones, meaning a huge net loss.
Am I wrong, ANET?

Are we getting anything back for the reagents bought?
Looks sadly not…

Velho.7123:

Considering the fix is being worked on, but hasn’t been worked on, how about this suggestion. Since the key is dirt cheap to get, removing the confirmation prompt would be a step forward, and being able to buy all the 30 keys or remaining discounted keys at each discounted price in one click would be amazing.

Great idea! The prompt is not needed.

Velho.7123:

On a side note, to Gaile, each of your replies refills our hope tank, so thanks for the continued feedback

TY Gaile!

Just updated with Game updates/2016-01-26, on a Mac mini & Mac OS X El Capitan, for the Mac ‘beta’ client.
Once opening the chat panel, the W key gets activated although not physically depressed, cannot stop it, and the GW2 game totally unplayable. Quit GW2, but the takeover of the W key continues within the Mac OS, not being released by GW2 or something, and will have to restart the Mac. Logging out from the Mac account will not fix it, as the W key takeover continues even into the account login screen after logout. Something is screwed up with the GW2 program, and/or the Wine wrapper it has, conflicting with the Mac OS key input, and also unable to release the handoff.

Woop S.7851:

Jon Olson.8439:

Subgroups and squadmates have different dots already. Though the difference is subtle. see attachment — subgroup is on the left

I’ll pass on the feedback to the team.

Would something like this work? (Screenshot with explanation)

Note that this screenshot concept is a bit dated, but since lieutenants can now be assigned, would it make sense for them to have a mini tag? Even if it’s just a number, this way everyone within the “subgroup” can follow him/her incase the commander dies, the subgroup just rally to the lieutenant, and “subgroup colors” would make it easier for players to follow/clump together while having the correct range for “boon sharing”, otherwise it’s a sea of blue names on the screen.

Thanks Jon!
~Woop S

Brilliant idea! Love it!
ANet should redesign with this in mind. Tough now to tell the differences within the squad, with the present design subtleness.
I would just not use Yellow for sub-squad color, though… It does conflict with the Guildmate Yellow dot.
Maybe Orange? Or somewhat ‘opposite’ color?
Think also of those that cannot see red/green well. Something that will standout even in black & white monotone.
Changing the shape of the dot in the map to a small star/square/triangle?
Add a notable dot in the center of the dot, or outline the dot?
And yes, sub-squad leader should also have an extra leader tag above, with the sub-squad number and color.
Oh, and YES! Please make it more noticeable which square is yourself in the squad window!

Hope this improved UI comes true and soon.

Man, this really confusing now.
There are ‘Minor’ recipes that craft ‘Major’ items…

Major => Major, Minor => Minor
plus
Major => Minor & Minor => Major?!

Boom…

Digging deeper into the things sold by the Pact Supply Network Agent, suggests that this is NOT the only ‘Major’ recipe that crafts a ‘Minor’ item. WTH? Wouldn’t everyone think a Major will always craft Major items, while the Minor would be something bit less than Major? Why does a Major recipe crafts a Minor item, while having another Minor recipe that also crafts the same Minor item? I really don’t get it at all…

It also seems that there are at least two kinds of ‘rarity’ to the same recipe. Really? And they are sold at the same Pact vendors? Wow…

Something is truly messed up here about what recipe name crafts what kind of item.

Major => Major, & Minor => Minor

Correct, or not, ANet?

Or, can someone explain to me what my confusion is about, and correct me?

Just as in the title, and as in the screenshot attached.

Bought a Pact-agent sold Recipe: Major Sigil of Malice, but my crafting panel says I know only the Minor version somehow. Back to the agent seller, it tells me I already know the Major recipe. Difference output if the recipe is a Masterwork or a fine? You get a minor out of a Major recipe?

Not sure if others have posted this before, as I could not find using the forum search feature. If exists, moderators please merge.

Really weird.

I would like my Karma refunded, or to learn the Major recipe of what I have bought.

ANet, quick fix please!!!

Happy Holidays, everyone!

Just to check: Has this bug been totally fixed, or not?

Should I still keep doing charter select & log-out, instead of Exit to Desktop?

Please merge with this thread:
“Options reset every time I log in”
https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/support/bugs/Options-reset-every-time-I-log-in/page/3#post5860680

And, I look forward to having the fix soon.

New post here: “Option Reset Bug” from Gaile @ ANet:
https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/game/gw2/Option-Reset-Bug

Gaile Gray.6029:

After the last build, a bug developed where some players’ options were resetting. I know in my case, my “auto-loot” option went away, and my choice to not show the Personal Story reset to show the story by default. Nothing major, but a bit noticeable. (In another case, someone got to the end of a jumping puzzle and learned that the double-tap reactivated on his account and he fell to an untimely and messy death. )

Anyway, we wanted you to know that a fix for this issue is being tested right now, and once it passes all the necessary checks and validations, we’ll be rolling out this fix to make sure your settings stay set.

Cindas.6149:

…
Workaround for the Main issue:
- Do not use the ‘Exit to Desktop’ option either while logged in with a character or at character selection.
- Do use the ‘Log Out’ option while at the character selection screen and not while logged in with a character. i.e.:

Game Menu -> Log Out -> Character Select -> Game Menu -> Log Out -> Log Out -> Close launcher using the X button

Notes:

• If you use ‘Exit to Desktop’ there is a great chance, when inflicted with this bug, that the Main issue will occur.

• Testing involved using the above workaround method on one account about 20 times and it was 100% successfull at retaining settings. When ‘Exit to Desktop’ was used, it lost settings most every time.
  …

This very much works for me as the remedy until the real ANet fix arrives.
This may also hint what’s not working during the logging out phase within the program & the networked settings data storage.

My system is the latest GW2+HoT Mac Beta (yes, still BETA…), on Mac OS X El Capitan 10.11.2. This remedy works on two (2) different Mac systems, that both had the same settings resetting issue.

Good Luck!

Not sure what was happened on the ‘other’ side, but somehow the News feed is showing once again in my Mac beta client. At least, with my home MBP. I will check with my work Mac once get back to office after the Thanksgiving long weekend.

Hmmm, not sure if a Mac beta user can ‘clear’ the cache…
The GW2 app is within a Wine wrapper…
Any Mac user know if this is possible manually?

Update:
Removed [Mac] from Topic title, as it seems to affect PCs as well.

Update:
Tried two (2) Mac, one Mac mini with El Capitan, one MacBook Pro with Yosemite.
BOTH, have the same issue, not loading the news after the login, before the clicking the ‘Play’.

After the recent update, which seems to include Mac-related things, I cannot see any of the news listed after you login, before clicking ‘Play’. The never-ending counterclockwise gray loading ring just continues, but nothing loads. I can play the game just fine. Yet, still would like to see what’s new as I start to play. Attached is the screen shot.
Not really major, but still needs to be fixed.
Thanks.

Sorry to interrupt.
I am also necro/reaper looking for optimization of all sorts.
Who is this ‘he’ who’ve posted the tank build, and which ‘tread’ or actual ‘post’ is this?
Not knowing who to search for in the Necro forum, needs a lot of scrolling…
Thanks!

Yo, That would be me, Here’s the actual link since the sites updated now
http://gw2skills.net/editor/?vREQJARWnMbCV2gdbC22As3gFrBTKAEy+VxZwRYKkaFEDmUA-TRSBQBk7CAchjAQi0FYw9HQjSQPp+TXU+phDBAAeAABAQAu5Nzm3MwQH6QH6QHa3co3co38mlCQPtWA-e

Click on the “Show skill action” button above reaper shroud, that will show you something near the actual stats inside RS not accounting for crit from vuln (50%), or flesh of the master / corruptor’s fervor, This is extremely close to the maximum optimization you can balance in-between defense/offense.

The actual guide with a lot more information on rotations and a few tricks many may not be aware of with more technical information will be coming sometime later this month, (I’m not the best editor) So watch out for that if you’re interested in this stuff!

If anyone wants information sooner than that just message me in-game anytime they see me online (Add my forum name to the friends-list for finding me) I’ll gladly discuss anything i know about.

Hey there! Sorry I didn’t recognize the ‘he’ part. :P
And thank you very much for updated build as well.
VERY interesting indeed!
I think your build is quite close to what I was thinking about.
I will see if I can get closer to something like yours.

Thanks!

Valiant.8016:

Precisely how long will this “beta” period be for?

I would think “beta” is a taboo word with the Mac client being in “beta” status for the better part of 3 years.

I think in general we don’t tend to drop the beta tag until we’re completely satisfied with how it runs. That just hasn’t happened yet for the Mac client, for multiple reasons. I realize it won’t make much of a difference at this point, but we sincerely do intend to get it from being barely an okay experience to at the very least a good one, with the goal being a great one. As all good things though, it will take time.

Hey, that’s great news!
Better, non-Beta, maybe 64-bit(?), for the non-PC GW2 & HoT players?
YES, PLEASE!

Menadena.7482:

Reaper Greatsword, becomes ‘Unequipped’ after jumping from WP to WP, back in my Inventory, and leaving one of the Weapon slots empty. Really weird…
This only happens when traveling in the non-HoT world WPs, I think, as it never happened in the HoT area. Not sure if this is a HoT bug, but definitely has been newly introduced with the HoT Expansion, with the Reaper Elite Profession has been added to the Necromancer.
I did report this using the in-game Bug Reporter, attached with screenshot.
Hoping for a HoT (overused pun… :P) fix.

Okay, I think I’ve self-solved this issue.
But, before saying anything, I’d like to ask a question:
Is the Reaper Greatsword NOT averrable in WvW?

Well, I just noticed that my Reapers’s Greatsword was again ‘Unequipped’ & lying in my Inventory now. This was just after I have clicked the WvW & entered the area, to jump quickly get back to Lion’s Arch.

Could this be the very reason my Reaper Greatsword becomes ‘Unequipped’?

Regarding latest update.
My Mac client is unable to play the game, due to not being able connect to online content somehow.
After a long wait of circling lower-right ring to load Timberline Falls, I either get a Network error 1083:5:7:1595:101, or a Lost connection error 7:0:0:990:101.
Just before to update, I was playing just fine.
Really too bad, no more playing tonight, and possibly not any daily progress nor XP gain.
HoT fixed, please!!!

Wow. I did not see this coming… I was the first-to-post my Network error 1083:5:7:1595:101, or a Lost connection error 7:0:0:990:101, in this very thread.
Then, whattayaknow, it was almost EVERYONE!
I’m was not alone…

I was able to get into the game for a few minutes after this, jumped a few locations, then again Network error 1083:5:7:1595:101, or a Lost connection error 7:0:0:990:101, no go, again…

Not sure why this HUGE issue wasn’t picked up internally by ANet before this update release.

Terrible update, thank you.
Quick & proper fix, desperately PLEASE.

Hi y’all Necromancer/Reaper lovers/livers!
Lots of creativity here, and that all look very nice!
Here’s my Sakura, finally equipped with the Belinda’s Greatsword Skin, that was sitting in my bank for soon long! Long wait, but that wait is over.
LOVE everything with it!!!
The sheathed on the back, the unsheathed pose, and all the action of the Reaper attacks.
Thank you ANet for all this!

Will the scythe staff skin be back again this year?

Man… I was actually looking forward to this, only now to find out that it’s NOT sold.
Only the stuff from “Halloween 2013: Blood and Madness”, but nothing from the “Halloween 2012: Shadow of the Mad King”…
Sad 2 tickets I have…
I want the Scythe Staff Skin, and the Ghastly Grinning Shield Skin…
Should I settle for the Bloody Prince Staff Skin?
Nothing else from the Black Lion Weapons Specialist, I want.

Hi,
Started up Mac [beta] client, and noticed the graphics was way worst than before.
Screen shot attached.
Ugly, but GW2 still playable.
Hope this helps fix this issue.

Disable the occlusion, it’s broken on mac.

Thanks!

Interestingly, my ‘occlusion’ setting was actually Off while having this issue. WTH, and switched it On, though nothing happened, with same bad rendering. But then, I switched it back Off again, and instantly, all graphics back to normal. What was that?
In any case, yes, switching the ‘occlusion’ settings helped remedy (but not fix) this issue.

Sad that the Mac client is still called [beta], and acts like one, too…

I am seeing a hero point notification on my 80 guardian, every time I zone. I have all traits and skills unlocked, yet I keep getting this notification. Minor, compared to what I am reading on this thread, but it should be corrected at some point.

Heard in-game that a German website has all the locations on maps, AND on video.
Anyone know the link to this?

wooo, just finished 50/50, got me Princess

Oh, so this is the Dragonite eater I just heard of…

Darn, I just “Trashed” all 1,000+ Dragonites I picked up farming SW… Dumb.

Thanks for the leads, Linken & Zalladi!
