Hey all,

Any ideas on what would be causing this crash? (2 screenshots attached)

It happens when I exit the game back to the character selection screen. I don't get back there because the client crashes first. (see screenshots)

I'm dual-booting Win 10 Pro on a Mac Mini (2018) with the Intel i7 and 64GB of RAM. I've installed EQClassicHD, but so far no other enhancements yet.

The game runs great other than this, and it's a minor annoyance since I'm generally just camping for the night anyway.

this happens to me frequently.
did some "testing" and found i generally crash when a video player is on (which is most of the time with EQ as i have no TV in my room)

if you exit out your player (prime, Netflix)

the chance of you crashing is grately reduced.

its starts to happen less for some reason

not entirely sure what causes it tho

sarcasm to imply the longer you are on the less you are camping out?

Use compatibility mode.

If you do, try the other SP option. Meaning if you have it set to XP SP2 try XP SP3 or vice-versa.

Oh, I didn't realize your issue was in relation to while watching video. I've never run into that and I also am always watching netflix/prime/(insert other services) - the only time my client crashes is when my audio device changes, like if my bluetooth headphones disconnect. I also play in windowed mode exclusively; half my screen is EQ and the other half is whatever I'm watching / reading.
