@ZOS_Adrikoth thanks for the reply! Yeah I've seen this article and it didn't work.

I'm pretty sure it's introduced by the 6.3.5 update,
before 6.3.5: 0% crash on dungeon loading screens with any graphics settings
after 6.3.5: 100% crash on dungeon loading screens with lowest graphics settings

Yeah, they've advised me to uninstall (remove from the folder) all Add-ons and do a repair of the game files. Ticket number is 210327-008538.

I will go ahead and do that because I haven't yet tried actually *removing* the add-ons from my installation (though most of these crashes have occurred with them fully disabled), but it feels almost insulting to suggest that add-ons are to blame for an issue clearly called out in dozens of crash logs as arising from MoltenVK, the Mac port of the modeling system.

A major issue with the modeling system also explains the graphics artifacting I and others been experiencing since the patch, examples here:









I was worried my graphics card was failing until I saw screenshots on the forums of others experiencing similar issues since 6.3.5 patch.

I'll go ahead and uninstall my add-ons folder and follow through with a repair so we can at least rule that out, but I can't imagine that the API used by add-on developers allow access to any functions of the modeling system implemented in the Mac client by MoltenVK. I do hope these steps work, regardless.

Don't have any addons installed. Wonder if it's a Macbook M1 / macOS Big Sur problem.

My game hangs and crashes to the login screen every second or third time I try to do any loading transition (such as wayshrines or into an Outlaw's Refuge). I have also experienced some graphics glitches and, occasionally, a spontaneous booted-from-server crash. It frequently takes me two or more tries just to get beyond the character select screen now. Trying to work through only seven characters' crafting dailies for the recent event took hours each day. At first, I thought this was better than the time when it regularly crashed every 30 minutes, but now I'm not so sure.

It's very disappointing to see that the troubleshooting article we're referred to was last updated in 2019, given how many of us started experiencing these problems after much more recent patches.

Thank you for sharing that other thread. I'm working through solutions to see if any of them help. In a half hour of attempts (and waiting after being booted), I've only managed to play about two minutes so far today. Not fun at all. Can't imagine what it's going to be like with Companions and Endeavors to work in.

Agree have the same issues

On top of that , a refund of the game is not the solution , because i have paid monthly subscriptions for a full year now. I dont think they will reimburse that either

I have had the same issue. Requested and received a refund. moved on to Stadia (had to buy the game again). works flawlessly.

Ok, That seems interesting !

That said , does it allow addons ?!?

I also face many issues while playing ESO on my iMac.
And this is the reason I stopped.
I hoped they would be fixed since the last time I tested the game; but when I have a look to these forums, I feel like this is not the case.
So, as Stadia is a viable alternative, any chance we can have a refund or a free transfer to Stadia ?
If not, I will have to unsubscribe of course. Why should I subscribe to a game that has so many issues on Mac with no to little support on this platform ?

Yes, I play eso with google stadia on MacBook Air M1 with Ethernet wired connection. No issues at all.also works on iPad although wifi has jitter issues no crashes there as well. The Google stadia controller allows me to play on the Mac with controller (and on tv with chromecast). Negatives are higher priced game and the stadia plus subscription for higher resolution.

That’s correct. Stadia charges a monthly fee just like PlayStation btw. I think that you can play stadia without monthly fee but it will not be HD resolution. Not sure though.
