    For me on PC NA the crashes take place at random times for no single reason . I've been just riding my horse and crash . I've been opening a door and crashed . Talking to a vendor and crash .

    Now I am using minimap which is outdated and Destinations addon which is a little outdated too if that helps .

    I am also crashing a lot changing zones since the Homestead update.
    It can happen on your first zone change after logging on, or it can happen after multiple successful zone changes.
    It has even happened a few times exiting/entering a delve.

    Typically the screen goes black before the zone loading screen pops and ESO stops working. You are then prompted to submit report (which i did the first few times).

    This did not occur before the Homestead patch. Yes there were instances of the dreaded 'loading screen simulator' but never a black screen crash before the loading screen.

    Great, thanks for the info everyone. We're working on investigating all this, and will let you know if we need anything else.

    @ZOS_GinaBruno
    Can i get some help please with this ticket so i can get my character back ? after a crash in Rawl'ka, i can not log her anymore, she is in limbo.
    Ticket number 170213-003643 - send around 9pm est - Feb 13
    Thank you

    UPDATE : so after 8 hours, no sign of any interest from support. Not only they did not answer by sending me a mail acknowledging my request, but nothing on here for everyone having the problem.
    Remember, it is easy to say do not go there, BUT when we have to do questing and achievement in those differents places, what can we do ? pass and forget? you tied almost everything now to achievements.
    BUT i am lucky, the game finally decided that my character could get free.
    I can not say if you did something or if the support did as i have nothing to proove it.
    I just guess its just luck after so much hours and probably because the town was empty.

    The lesson of all this : if i can not play my character fully, what is the goal then ?

    now if you ask how and when all those crash happens :
    . Travelling on a player
    . Going from shrine to shrine too often : for example if you do your treasure maps, had 40 to do yesterday (yes i know you said those where not ready, but 40 maps in my bank, that was really taking a lot of slots)
    . Travelling to give your writs to Craglorn, and then crashing when you want to leave the place
    . Questing, dropping from the shrine in Rawl'ka and finding yourself in an empty town, no players no npc, you can run but nothing more and after some time you are booted as you can not leave the place by yourself
    After that kind of problem, you find your game totally wrong, as when you try to log in back, all the background of the characters panels is missing... You need to quit completely and relog
    . Or just doing nothing special with travelling, running in a place to do every quests, avoiding the shrines, and still crashing for nothing just like that, you are suddenly on the logging screen with that famous note : check your internet .... but my internet is fine. I almost wish it was my internet.

    I use addons, but as i wanted to be sur, i played a whole day without any addons, and that was the worst day, as i had even more crash that the other days.

    I know the problem we encounter is not easy to pin point for you, but in the mean time, why not restrict Rawl'ka, Deeshan, Grathwood main cities crashing from any dueling ? Just so we can at least quests, and trade?
    I feel bad for all the Traders standing in Rawl'ka, the city avoided for now by a lot of us.

    SO...

    "Fixed a crash that could occur when changing zones or using a wayshrine."

    The fix is that now more people see the bug? :smiley:

    I have found the fix worked for me, I don't crash this way anymore...there are other ways it still crashes, such as when I exit the game, its about 25% crash.

    Can you post the fix for your crash? @GlassHalfFull

    The fix was today's patch, not something I did. Others I know have told me adjusting their video card settings, such as shadow quality lower, have helped their situation, perhaps it would for you.

    I keep getting insanely long loading into zones when in a party.

    Several crashes yesterday, no crashes today. Seems like too many players were on the server right after maintenance.

    What? What happened? Where is it?
    - You stupid, I've taken it just now.
    - By the shining trees of Aldmeris. We have been burgled. But how?
    That staff was an illusion. Where's the real one?
    - Oh... ok.

    Nope. Still not able to log in. -at all. strange. The game worked well before the patch, and no, i don't use mods.
    -Will try to reinstall the game. :neutral:
    Hopefully that works, otherwise I will go into another year of hiatus. :smile:

    Edit: Phew! It works again.

    It got much worse after last patch. 50/50 chance to get kicked out of game when I´m trying to port to Mournhold from anywhere (shrine and map) and then I´m unable to log on that toon for next 10 - 15 minutes.

    Can you guys provide a bit more info? Where are you trying to travel to when you crash? Are you using a wayshrine or traveling to another player? What server/platform are you on?

    I'm seeing it quite frequently when Wayshrining into Mournhold and Belkarth. Doesn't seem to matter what my point of origin is.

    I am on PC EU.

    I just crash on a regular basis due to my crappy wifi, but I know a friend has had issues porting between zones, but he can port easily through the wayshrines in the zone he's in.

    I don't crash, but very very often I get kicked back to login screen, and have to enter password again, and log in all over again. Very very annoying especially if you're in que for dungeon finder, as you get kicked from que and have to reque again.

    if its prime time and i have a toon parked in rawl ka then i might as well just log onto it the next day, iv sat there and tried 8or9 times to login to that toon just to get thrown back to the login screen each time, log into a different toon elsewhere just fine, go back to login to the toon at rawl ka and then get kicked back to login.

    PC, NA server.

    Crash when trying to travel to another player. Generally "endless load screen" that has lasted well over 10 minutes before timing out and booting me from the game for "inactivity." This happens virtually EVERY TIME.

    Crash when direct traveling by just clicking on a wayshrine and paying to travel.

    Crash when trying to leave a house I own via the exit.

    Crash when using /stuck PLUS it takes your gold anyway while leaving you exactly where you were.

    These crashes take the form of long load screens that eventually just boot me from the game for "inactivity."

    Long load screens and occasional crash when traveling from wayshrine to wayshrine.

    Long load screens and occasional crashes when entering a delve or public dungeon.

    UNBEARABLE LAG. Game now often becomes unplayable anywhere there are more than half a dozen players. Dolmens, cities, etc.

    Random load screens even if just walking in a city. Occasional crash with those as well.

    Textures, objects, NPCs and other players taking forever to load/render when I enter an area.

    Since housing dropped I spend less time in game than ever.

    Since the patch theres a 50% chance I crash when trying to teleport

    This is still an issue, it's so annoying. I have had this happening since Summerset, disabled all addons, doing repairs. Nothing helps, about half the zoning I do ends in an instant crash to desktop, no error or bug reports, game is just instantly gone. It seems it can happen after any type of zoning, using a wayshrine, entering or exiting a delve or dungeon.

    PC/NA. Wasn't crashing before today's update but sure am now. Just on transiting to other zones. No particular zone and happens both with wayshrines and traveling to other player. Disabled all "out of date addons" but still occurring. Will try disabling all addons period to see if anything changes.

    update: disabling addons completely didn't seem to help

    ouch, my favorite zone :(

    It really doesn't help with performance issues to necro old threads from over a year and half ago. Far better to start a new one, preferably on the appropriate technical support forum for your platform where the tech devs will see it and respond if they can.
