Here’s an experiment for those of you hitting the keyboard bug: turn off autocorrect.

For newer versions of macOS this is in the Text tab of Keyboard Preferences.
For older versions of macOS this is in the Text tab of Language & Text Preferences.

I’ve had this off by default and regularly get the keyboard bug.

Same. GFX performance should be better with my 1080ti, but it works, my only real complaint is the KB locking up.

As entertaining as it is to bind jump, interact, and spawn mount to f13-15 so I can still “play” it kinda sucks…

For those looking for the config file for the 64bit – yes it does exist.

Go to /Library/Application Support/Guild Wars 2 and the config is there.

It seems it reads it for some things and not others though. The 64 bit version grabbed my custom key bindings from the 32 bit client but not the fact that I had turned the music off.

Hrm. Not sure then, but I changed up the Vram there as well just in case. As of just now I tried launching the 32 bit client and the launcher just black screens with the latest patch, so I guess I’m stuck on the 64 for now. Oddly enough I seem to get slightly better FPS with supersampling enabled… perhaps my card has an efficiency peak, where GW2 isn’t driving it hard enough… hah.

The game runs… somewhat better with 11GB of Vram vs 256MB, but I’m still lucky if I can super occasionially break 60fps on not-the-highest-but-pretty-nice settings, and I’m running a bloody 1080Ti… not super pleased with the FPS I’m getting for having that card, but it’s somewhat better than the 32 bit at least… no out of memory crashes at any rate.

I also (randomly, between 3 mins and 3 hours really…) get the no keyboard bug, where 1-9 and a-z don’t work, but arrow keys, F keys etc. all function; as well as the “everything glows” bug that is apparently from ambient occlusion from what someone said earlier.

I have not played enough to see if the “all text disappears and nothing works” bug happens anymore, hopefully not as that was incredibly annoying.

Also having the issue with game freeze on event completion, and the XP bar being unable to decide how full it is. Within 3 or so seconds of completing an event (which seems to be the only half decent way to get xp), I get a total game freeze. Ambient sound seems to still work however.

Someone concluded that it seems to occur when you receive large amounts of XP, which by all observed indications is correct.

Moderately disappointed, as I bought a new set of wings and wanted to try them out!

Character name I have been using for HoT is Alacritas Denitche.

I’m running the mac beta client (which doesn’t say much as the mac client is just the actual windows client emulated – to the point I was able to copy out the game files and transfer them to a windows computer so I didn’t have to download again!), which thankfully means I’m not needing to system reboot, but I am required to nuke the emulation from orbit to close the game.

Hopefully this issue is resolved soon, as I really would like to be able to continue well, any of HoT.
