Guild Wars 2

MattKemp.2761:

I had a similar crash today – I found the following fixed it for me (on Windows 7 64-bit):

1. Create a new shortcut to the GW2.exe executable
2. Right click the shortcut and click “Properties”, then click the “Shortcut” tab at the top
3. At the end of the “Target” box (after the existing text and after the closing speech mark) add the following, replacing the <> bits with the appropriate text:
-email <your account email address> -password <your password> -nopatchui
4. Click Apply, OK, then double click the shortcut to launch GW2

For me this seemed to skip whatever part of the launcher screen was crashing, hope it works!

Edit: Once you’re in, don’t open the trading post, or you will crash! If you don’t open it you should be fine

so far, this has been the only way i can get ingame. When i start up the launcher, I’m immedietly hit with the appcrash message: (this is with the latest patch from a few mins ago)
