Crashes after 1.1.2 Update - Non English Language Issue

Moonraker

It appears that patch 1.1.2 introduced an issue with the Mac client where using a non-English (or French, German) system/ keyboard language is causing frequent crashes.

Workaround: For now change the following to English in:

System Preferences > Language & Regions > Preferred Language > English -Primary

Then own language as secondary to swap between.

EDIT: Updated from further testing which shows it is system language only it seems.

I just spent an hour playing latest ESO Mac client with one of the issue languages and not my normal English:

Preferred Language: Danish (Primary)
Region: Denmark
Keyboard: Danish (no other enabled)

Rebooted after setting then fired up ESO. Played at Ultra-High as normal for around 1 hour and no crash.

I have not seen exactly when players with this issue are in fact crashing so if anyone can confirm if it's issue when launching or character selection/ launch or just more frequent crashing in normal play (more frequent than general memory crash issue) I would appreciate it to understand the problem better.

OK, so I don't see any reports beyond those posted previously. Are players still having the problem with languages crashing the Mac client and if so when?

As I said I did try for an hour and it didn't crash so hard to reproduce this and wanted to confirm it was still a problem.

On further testing it appears it's just Preferred language (system) in System Preferences > Language & Region that needs changing. Region or Keyboard don't cause it at least from changing it for me.

I couldn't recreate it in Danish myself but was by another. I checked with Russian and it crashed each time on Character launch.

Just an FYI, I play on with these settings, without any issues:

Preferred language:
Spanish (main) > English

Region: Mexico

Keyboard: Spanish ISO

Polish system settings still crashing.
Can play on English system and Polish Pro keyboard sett.

After changing Preferred Language from Russian to English I logged in game without problems.

Hopefully we will see some fix go in for the next patch update.

From initial testing, this looks resolved now at least with Russian language in 1.1.3 update as expected so should be for other languages also.

Afetr 1.1.3 Polish language works as well.
