[Solved]Freezing at Character Creation

Dedhed

This has been happening for the past two days now. At first I was only trying to create a character on the PTS and it kept freezing while changing hair styles, eyebrows and eye color. Deleted the addons and got through character creation, but then froze as soon as I entered world. Haven't tried the suggested PTS workaround yet, but the thing is, this isn't only happening on PTS.

Today, I've been trying all day to create a character on the Live server to no avail. Game keeps freezing while changing either hairstyle, eye color or eyebrows. More recently today hairstyle and eye color have been ok, but eyebrow changes freeze it every time. Deleted the user settings file to start that fresh, still happens.

I'll try running a repair and removing addons, see if that helps. Also will try the PTS workaround for that part. Will report back my findings. Anyone else experiencing this?

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.

worked so far for me.

For the freezes in character creation on the Live server, removing Addons (and Saved Variables for good measure) worked just the same as PTS. No problems in character creation at all with those folders removed.

I've restored the Addons and Saved Variables folders (same folders with all the same files as before) now that the character I wanted to make is in game and everything works perfectly fine. No problems except in character creation.

Don't know which addon it might have been or why any of them would cause a crash while changing eyebrows, but it looks like that was the case here. So weird....
