Hey everyone,

I know that there are a handful of you all that are still experiencing issues with the Black Lion Trading Company. We have had some players have success by deleting the local.dat file and/or resetting IE settings.

If you would like to try to see if either of these work I will provide the how-to info below:

Delete local.dat file:

1. Start the Guild Wars 2 launcher.
2. Uncheck “Remember Account Name.”
3. Uncheck “Remember Password.”
4. Close the launcher.
5. Navigate to the location "C:\Users\YOUR USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\Guild Wars 2
6. Locate and delete the file local.dat from this folder.
7. Start the launcher again and attempt to log in to the game.

Reset IE Settings:

1. Within Internet Explorer click on “Tools” and select “Internet Options.”
2. Click the “Security Tab”
3. Click through the 4 different zones, one by one. So first, click on “Internet” and select “Default Level.” Then click on “Local Internet” and click on “Default level” doing this for all four options listed.
4. Click the “Connections” tab.
5. Click on “Lan Settings.”
6. Check-mark “Automatically detect settings” and click “Ok.”
7. Click the “Advanced” tab at the end.
8. Click “Restore Advanced Settings” then click “Reset” under the heading “Reset Internet Explorer Settings.”
9. (Optional) – Check mark “Delete personal settings” if you do not have anything you want to save and would like a clean reset.
Once completed, please click “Ok” and try the Black Lion Trading Company again.

If neither of these suggestions work, please hang tight. We have people looking into this and they will provide an update once one is available.

Hey Koffsplat,

Have you tried the suggestions listed on the Basic Client Troubleshooting post?

Also, are you getting any other error messages when you try to launch the game without using Terminal or just that the game is not responding?

As you all know, there where a couple of Mac related fixes in the last patch.

From what I am seeing, the patch fixed these issues for most of the Mac players. I have however, noticed that there may be a handful of y’all that are still experiencing issues.

If you are still experiencing either of the following issues I would like you to provide me with some basic info about your system by replying to this post.

  • Fixed a bug that caused the Trading Post to crash on Mac systems.
  • Fixed a bug that required rebooting to restart Guild Wars 2 on Mac systems.

Basic System Info Needed:

  • Mac Model – example – MacBook Pro Mid 2011
  • Full OS Version
  • Amount of RAM
  • CPU
  • GPU – Please include both if you have a system with an Intel and AMD/Nvidia card.

Thanks!

Hey RoyalLeon,

How are you connecting to the internet? If you are connecting wirelessly, you may want to connect via an Ethernet cable until the patch is complete. Even small hiccups in wireless connectivity can cause the launcher to stop the updates part way through the process.

Hey guys, this is currently intended so don’t worry if you see multiple processes running. This should not interfere with the game clients performance and as far as I am aware this is something that may be fixed with a future update.

If any of y’all have sent in tickets and have not gotten a reply from myself or someone else in Tech Support, please PM me with the email address you used to submit the ticket. Once I have that info, I can check to see why your ticket was never received by us.

Also, has anyone had any success with using the workaround that Yifang posted above? I would like to get feedback on this so I can pass it along to the dev team.

After maybe 100+ crashes in 2days from the tp there seems to be some respite, what I did was set that coherent.exe file to open with Guild wars 2 and after that I’ve had just 1 failed tp load but at most 1 crash so it seems to have done something.

Yifang – All tickets we have received regarding these issues have been sent replies. If you have not yet received a reply, please PM me the email address associated with your account and I will look into it. It is possible that the ticket is assigned to another team.

I just wanted to let you know that we are aware of these issues and are working to get them resolved.

With that said, I would like to see how many people are still experiencing these issues. If you are still having issues since the September patch, please update this thread and let us know exactly what issue you are experiencing.

Explain the issue you are seeing?
Are you getting any error messages? If so what are they?
Are you able to work around this issue by doing something specific such as deleting the gw2 folder or running a repair etc?

Thanks!

I know that there are a handful of you that are having issues with either crashing, launching the client or the trading post since the patch was released. I am requesting that those of you experiencing issues submit a support ticket so that I can help you individually. As there are several errors happening after the patch and it would be easier if I was able to work with you one on one instead of trying to field everyones questions and troubleshoot issues in a single thread.

Thanks!

As far as expected patches/updates, we (the tech team) get the information pretty close to the same time it is released to players. This is mainly due to the process at which they test/release the updates. Because of this, it is highly unlikely that I will have any solid information on upcoming patch performance until myself and the Mac player base are actually able to install and use the client. When I test the game on my Mac, I do so on the live client so that I can potentially run into the same issues that any of y’all may run into. I hope that helps to explain why I was unable to update this thread until now. With that said, I am still going over the recent posts and will update them as I can.

Hey guys,

If you are having this issue and crashing after the update we recommend you try the following troubleshooting steps to try to resolve the issue.

First, try disabling any antivirus you have on your system. Sometimes after programs/games are updated, the antivirus program will see them as a threat due to the new files added to the program/game which can cause issues.

If this does not resolve the issue and allow you to download/launch the client you can try moving the game out of the program files folder. If you are not sure how to do this please follow the instructions below.

1. Navigate to your Guild Wars 2 folder, which by default should be C:\Program Files(x86)\Guild Wars 2.

2. Move this folder to a new location like C:\Games\Guild Wars 2. The location doesn’t matter specifically, as long as it’s outside of Program Files and Program Files(x86).

3. Navigate to this new location and “Right-click” on “GW2.exe” selecting “Create Shortcut.”

4. Rename this shortcut to “Guild Wars 2 Admin Mode.”

5. “Right-click” on “Guild Wars 2 Admin Mode” and select “Properties.”

6. Click the “Compatibility” tab.

7. Checkmark “Run this program as an Administrator.”

8. Click “Ok.”

Once completed, please double click “Guild Wars 2 Admin Mode” and try playing Guild Wars 2 again. If this helps resolve your issue, please copy that shortcut and use it to start Guild Wars 2 from now on.

If you are still experiencing issues after performing the above steps, comment on this thread and let us know.

Hey Jadjuka,

In some cases high temperatures may also be due to dust build up inside the system. I would suggest looking at the vents on the system to see if dust has built up on them. If so, then they need cleaned. You can do this by wiping them with a dry microfiber cloth or using canned air to spray the dust away. If the dust build up is contributing to the issue, you should see the temperatures lower a bit as there is more room for the hot air to pass out of the system.

If this did not help, please let us know and I will see what else I can do to help you with this issue.

Hello smitz,

In most cases error 7 is an issue with the players network and/or ISP. You can see a list of the GW2 error codes and basic troubleshooting by clicking on this link.

If you are still having problems after going through those steps and the ones listed on this sticky post, please submit a support ticket and I can assist you further.

I would first suggest deleting the contents of the gw2 data folder. As there are several ‘Library’ folders on your system please make sure you are following the steps exactly as they are listed below to get to the correct folder. This is a general fix for many tp and graphics issues, it will however, lose all saved log in/password and in-game settings.

To access this folder:
1 Click on the “Finder” icon located in your dock or the desktop of your computer to make “Finder” the active program.
2 Hold down the “Option” key on your keyboard while clicking “Go” in the finder menu bar. A drop-down will appear.
3 While still holding down the “Option” key, click on “Library” in the “Go” drop-down.
4 Once in the Library folder click on Application Support > Guild Wars 2
5 Move the entire Guild Wars 2 folder to the trash and then empty the trash.
The next time you launch Guild Wars 2 it will recreate the recently deleted folder.

Try to log in and see if you are still experiencing the same issue. If you are, please provide me with the information below:

CPU -
RAM –
Graphics Card – (If your system has 2 cards such as an Intel and Nvidia, please list both models)

I just wanted to pop in here and let y’all know I haven’t forgotten about you or these forums.

As I mentioned in my original post I am handling the forums on top of my regular job duties. Because of this, things have been a bit slow to get moving, but I am going to try to stop in here more frequently from here on out.

Lastly, I wanted to thank y’all for being such an awesome community! Even though I just started working with y’all, I have spent a lot of time reading through the Mac forums over the last couple of years and it’s nice to see that you guys are just as willing to help each other now, as you were when the forums first opened.

Hey there Meemness,

Are you running Guild Wars 2 on a MacBook or an iMac?

If you are running the game on a MacBook you may want to try using a different internet connection such as a family or friends internet. While connected to the other network you will want to test both the via Ethernet and wireless connections to the game client.

Doing this will let me know right away if the issue is with your network/ISP or not and will cut down on the troubleshooting that needs done.

If you are running the game client on an iMac, doing the above troubleshooting is going to be a bit harder so I would suggest submitting a ticket via our support system. This will allow me to assist you with your issue directly.

You can read through the following thread if you need assistance with submitting a ticket.

Hey guys! I wanted to take a minute to say Hi and introduce myself.

My name is Lacey and if you haven’t guessed already, I am the new’ish Mac specialist. I’m not really new per se as I have been with the tech team for a couple of years now. However, due to there not being anyone with Mac knowledge that was able to post on the forums regularly, they asked if I would step up and keep in contact with y’all. So… here I am.

Now that things are starting to slow down with my regular job duties, I should have some dedicated free time to get in here and work on the forums. You may not see a ton of changes at first, but I am hoping to get this place cleaned up and a bit more organized.

Anyhow, that’s really all I have for now. I will pop in here as time permits to work on organizing the sticky posts a bit as well as answer some of your questions.
