    Update! We have a fix in the cauldron of code, however until that's up, give this a whirl:

    Edit your UserSettings.txt file and change the PlayerStandInsEnabled.2 setting to 0.

    I gave up last night after I was stuck in the disconnect loop in the Memorial District. Gave up after the 10th DC.

    After doing what you said, I log back in to the same spot, in the middle of AD an DC all over (more than I have seen to date in one spot), and I was able to fight, die, and fight again.
    Thanks!

    this temp fix seems to be working played for 30 minutes with it and no crashing. Turned on a few more important add-ons then and ran around for another 30 minutes with no crashing.

    I'm playing on Windows 7, and I can't play in the IC districts because of crashes. There's two ways it usually goes:

    1) I enter a District and the other player models haven't loaded yet - they're using the 'shadow' placeholders. As soon as the shadows are replaced with the proper character models, the game crashes.

    I had this problem travelling the other way yesterday. I left the Imperial City Prison dungeon and returned to normal Tamriel (weirdly it returned me to the Wayrest wayshrine instead of Daggerfall... a location that I'd never been to with that character). Same thing happened though, game crashed when the shadows were replaced with the player character models. Also on Windows 7.

    Pretty sure this isn't a problem with my machine since I'm on a brand-new "extreme gaming" laptop which has 8 GB of graphics RAM and chooses Ultra-High settings off its own bat. I'll try the PlayerStandInsEnabled.2 setting to 0 workaround.

    Just wanted to let you know that the crash occurs in both directions, Rest of Tamriel to Imperial City and IC to RoT :)

    Seeing that there is an option to deposit not only gold but also Tel Var stones in my bank, I tried to do that, but nothing happened. When I pressed Deposit after choosing the number of stones, Cancel was highlighted and was the only option that got me out of the deposit window The stones are still in my inventory.

    Edit: Just found out you need to deposit a minimum of 50 stones.

    Edit your UserSettings.txt file and change the PlayerStandInsEnabled.2 setting to 0.

    This seems to be working for me. About 4 hours of play and no crash, only one Nvidia graphic driver black screen.

    Even when I have over 50 the deposit button remains gray yet you can still click on it to deposit.

    Definitely helped for me, not a single crash in the last ~2 hours.

    What? You cant be serious. A min to PUT IN THE BANK. Thats nuts. I thought they said a max in bank, not min, to pevent hording. So basically, they want you to run around with 50 TV stones to fodder the other factions when they gank you?

    @ZOS_RichLambert Lets get real here.

    No, they want you to gather a lot more before you even try putting them in the bank. Getting back to the base safely to store the stones is a hassle, sneaking through long tunnels hoping not to get ganked or slaughtered, so you don't want to do that every 50 stones you collect. Or you could just die to NPC and spend 10% TV to go back to base "the easy way". Unless you want to buy the portal stones (500 TV, single use) to port to base.

    Luckily none of the things you can buy with them (so far) appeal to me in any way, so I'm just ignoring the entire TV aspect of the game for now. IC has a lot more than Tel Var to offer. :)

    My friend and I tried the usersettings fix, and I believe we had 0 crashes yesterday when we played for hours both in the sewers and above ground in the Imperial City. :)

    Both of us were using FTC too, btw, no problem with crashing after the change.

    Memorial District - constant crashing. I even crashed after relogging and finding myself dead. I crashed again before I could hit one of the rez buttons. Maybe you guys need another year for this.......

    Addendum:

    Players are leaving the area and going back to the sewers. It's totally futile.[/quote
    This .....everywhere else is fine but i dare not enter memorial district.Just constant crashes there. Theres usually more people in that area. But ive seen that many people in other districts with no crashes .

    The fix posted in ESO Live worked for me. Like any Elder Scrolls game. One simple .ini tweak solves all. You better work on a "easier" fix though, I doubt the majority of player base will be aware of this tweak or willingly to try.

    Still experiencing a lot of lagging, especially when trying to unlock chests. Took me several attempts to unlock a simple lock because it timed out! :o

    It would be nice to have a 'return-to-base' option in every district. I found out - the hard way - that leaving a group wasn''t enough, I had to fight my way on my own to another district to find an exit.

    I was in the memorial district for two hours today after applying the fix. No crashes, ran like a silk. Lots of good battles there, both with AD and EP and bosses. It did seem like the district with most player activity.
