3.3.5 and Dalaran bugs

Post by Texaporte »

Found on my paladin forum:
Patch 3.3.5 introduced a bug that will force WoW to crash in and around Dalaran, this is mostly with the people running 64bit OS.

Solution 1: lower your settings:
Set the following settings in wtf.cfg
SET farclip "727"
SET gxApi "d3d9ex"
SET gxTextureCacheSize "128"

Solution 2: modify your wow.exe to enable program to be Large Address Aware.


Solution 2 borrows a mechanism from Fallout3.

Personally, I've had this kind of problem ever since I upgraded my gaming box to a 12gb 64bit os back in January. 3.3.5 nearly makes it impossible for me to play in Dalaran. Hopefully this helps.

From another thread with blue responses, the fix that doesn't require hacking the wow.exe should be forthcoming; the LARGEADDRESSAWARE flag is apparently coded into the SCII client, so at least the implementation exists within blizz.
