Hello.

Getting back into GW2 & two things are bothering me.

1) The game will not allow me to run window mode at 2560×1440...

2) The High-Res Character texture button is greyed out.

Here are my specs: (and before you ask, i do not want to update my OSX)

Processor 3.4 GHz Intel Core i7
Memory 16 GB 1333 MHz DDR3
Graphics AMD Radeon HD 6970M 2048 MB
Software OS X 10.9.5 (13F34)

Thats where I was going with it..

Thanks for the input— its all become a bit mixed up =P

I restored this computer from a Time Machine backup when i should have used migration assistant to just grab the applications.

Im not sure exactly what I did to fix this but it was some tricky combination of log in/out & clearing my cookies.

freaking ridiculous.

I tried from two computers & a smart phone all with the same problem.

HELLO ArenaNet??? LOL

PS. I still cant install the game via mac client. Respond to my support ticket (preferably not in 3 day increments)

Greets! I’m a long time friend of some core players enjoying GW2 & am trying to hop into the fun. Until recently GW2 did not support mac based players… Now that they do, their beta client refuses to install on both my iMac & MBP. The MBP is basically a clone of the iMac. I’ve been in sparse contact with their support service who is taking on average 2-3 days to respond…. (really lame)

Heres the problem – I download the beta client, mount the .dmg file, then run the initial set up. It installs something (small) on my HD, then starts to patch some files. After about 1 minute of those patches run the client closes & will not reopen via the application installed in my app folder. Nothing happens with a click it, I can get nothing to happen.

Steps I’ve taken so far:
Updated to Mountain Lion on my MBP (even though i had no use for it, i thought maybe it had something to do with lion server which is what i was running)
Updated (then uninstalled) xtools. (support said that there may be a conflict between x11 & xQuartz). Ive deleted the developer tools on my iMac as well.
Reset my SMC & PRAM

I am completely at a loss.. Two machines with the same problem. My MBP was cloned from the iMac using TimeMachine but are now running two different versions of OSX.

Ive included a screen shot at the exact moment before I loose contact with the GW2 installer.

Any help or suggestions would be greatly received since the support I’m getting from the developers is pretty poor…
