Is anyone having an issue where the client gets stuck while downloading at "Files Remaining: 49,100"? I tried Armored's 1.9.2, and two different lutris versions of gw2, but it does the same thing.I'm running on Manjaro kde.
Update: I moved the incomplete .dat file that I downloaded on linux to windows and test it on the native windows client. The .dat file was corrupted. I will either fully download gw2 then move it to linux or redownload gw2 on linux until it works.

By virtual desktop they mean something like virtualbox?

@jinxlaw.9467 how much RAM do you have? and do you know if there's any difference if you disable KWIN before you run the launcher?
@Nicodemus.1486 I have 16gb ram. I don't know if it makes a difference.

Otherwise, I need to hard reboot. It doesn't freeze up all the time, but maybe every third time or so.I'm NOT experiencing the issue at all on my other machine.AntefreeKernel 5.2.3-arch1-1-ARCHKDE Plasma 5.16.3R5 1600XAMD Vega 5616 GB RAMit works perfectly on this machine with no issues.I'll try the lutris version of guild wars 2 and see if it does the same.
Update: never mind, the lutris version freezes just as well. At this point there's nothing I can do other than switch DE or wait for a fix.

@jinxlaw.9467 said:@"cyanidecapsule.3926" I've successfully created a .desktop file that opens gw2 through play.sh, but I'm not sure how to add the LD_PRELOAD into it.Also, thanks for the link, super helpful!Hi, you can go into the "bin" folder and in a text editor open up the 'user_run' file. Right under '#Wine Settings' add:export LD_PRELOAD="/path/toyourfile.so". Let me know if you get stuck.It worked flawlessly. Thank you!

How can I add the LD_PRELOAD into the Environment Variables list? I'd like to try playing using gamemode.Also, does anyone know if it makes a difference?I'm new to linux ^^
