Hello,

I've been getting frequent crashes lately while zoning into Dalaran and Orgrimmar. I have copy/pasted the error log below. In addition, I have listed my CPU specs at the very bottom of the post. Any information on how to reduce the frequency or completely resolve the issue is greatly appreciated. Thank you and take care!

Hello Calcorpse,


Is your camera distance view set to the highest limit as posted in the above thread by S4d1k, linked above by Phine.

Hello Calcorpse,


The camera zoom set to 50% should be fine, but let me know what happens when you zoom in on your toon and test out Dalaran. And you don't have any 3rd party AddOns in the AddOns Æ’older do you ? I remember that QuestHelper used to crash the game when you went to Dalaran all the time.

One more thing: Do you shut down your Mac at night or just put it to sleep ?

Hello Calcorpse,


Odd that a zoom feature would cause all this but weird stuff is what we see some days. I'll see if I can get any more info on this I know that developers from Blizzard, Apple and the graphic card manufacturers are looking into this but haven't heard anything new lately.
