Guild Wars 2

Guys i found a solution that worked for me, and i hope for you aswell so try this:

Go to start / docunuments / guildwars 2 and delete the local.dat file there.
This file saves your ingame settings and things like your password / username and stuff.
When you deleted this file, start the game and the game will automaticly make a new local.dat file again.
The settings in the game are now set back to normal / default. Try to play any part of the game where you get the error often. ( By me that was in WvW after 5 – 15 mins ).
Don’t change any of the ingame settings yet!

I played WvW for 1 hour yesterday evening and today again and it worked all fine. I got no errors and i can teleport to any world / waypoint without getting errors.

If you think its save to change some settings again then do this. But remember what you changed cuz one of the settings that you changed could give you the error again. So remember it so that you can set it back to normal again

I hope this workes for you aswell. It’s atleast worth trying cuz it don’t takes hours to try this

Greetings Rik

( BTW i don’t know if this works for the black screen error, but it worked for the frozen screen where you get this error messages)

Amonian i got it fixed and this is what i did:

Go to start/docunuments/guildwars2 and delete the Local.dat file there. This is the file where your game settings and your pw / inlog get saved.
After that you start the game, and the game will automaticly make a new Local.dat file.
The settings in the game are restored to default settings now. Don’t change any settings and first try WvW for like 1 hour and see if you get any crashes.
If you think that it’s save to change some settings after that again then do it. But remember what you changed so if you get the error again then you can put it back to the normal settings

This worked for me. Yesterday evening i played 1 hour in WvW and today another hour and i didn’t have any crashes or errors.

I hope this will help you.

Yeah its the same here. Before the patch i had nothing. But now i get the crash in like 5 – 20 minutes of playing the game. Mostly at WvW or in a Dungeon. And i readed a lot of forums to and changed a lot on my computer aswel but nothing works.
So its good to know that many people have it and that it isn’t a problem of my PC i guess? Hope they fix it in the next build / patch!

Hello amonian,

I have exactly the same problem as you have for a few days now.
I think its since the new patch of last weekend.
Because before that i never had it.
It also happens to me in the fractals dungeon and in WvWvW.
I tried reinstalling the game but it didn’t help. I also changed the settings ingame but that also didn’t help.
Does anyone knows a solution for this problem?
I don’t think that it has anything to do with my computer but maybe the problem has something to do with the last patch?
I get the error like after 5 – 15 mins in the dungeon and in WvWvW, so this makes both unplayable. I hope someone can help us
