Game freeze on cogs (BG flags, mage tables, etc.)

[Predatoro]

There's a major bug right now that causes game freeze when a cog is hovered over or clicked. Blizzard official bug thread:nnhttp://forums.worldofwarcraft.com/threa ... 2773&sid=1nnHere's a macro that's working for me:nn/console showDetailDoodads 0n/console showSimpleDoodads 1nnI made a macro for it named "Cogs"

Not to me must be a air force thing. Remember AIM HIGH.

This sounds like what was happening to Ishar and me last night in ICC. I thought it was because were the only two new people in the run getting saved to a raid that had already downed bosses. Then it happened to somebody else in the late raid and they had been there the whole time.nnIn the first raid when I was on Jemmali there was a warlock summoning portal and various other things that changed the mouse to a cog. It was hard to move without hitting one. The fix was to come in from the beginning and then we had no problem taking the portal to get back up to the Deathbringer's Rise and then running to the next portal. We only had the problem when we went to the last portal directly. This fix worked for Ishar too.

I have the game crash a lot too. nBGs, entering or zoneing in to instances are the usual causes.

Deadly Boss Mods, I curse you. Apparently that's the culprit.nnEDIT: THAT DID NOT FIX IT. Still locks up without DBM.

It seems somewhat random. I had that problem in ICC one night and haven't had it since.

I can vouch for the above macro and say that IT WORKS!nSo, if anyone is having trouble when hovering over anything that turns your cursor into a cog, USE THIS MACRO!nYou just need to make the macro, put it on your action bar somewhere, and press it once every time you log on.

Happened to me as well this week. I though it was my machine, silly me!

I had not seen the bug til I paid a visit to the Headless Horseman yesterday. As soon as I moused over the pumkin, the game died. I followed Blizzard's recommendation and deleted the Cache directory in the World of Warcraft folder and things have been working fine since.
