This does not happen if I switch between chars on IoR or if i switch between chars on Qeynos. Nor does it happen if were to initially load an IoR char and then load a qeynos char. This only happens if the file eq2ui_mainhud_experience.xml is in my custom gui folder. I have tried removing all other mods with no success. and I have used soe's scan facility to check all original game files.

The above post by Xyrqes has been verified to be the cause of the Crash to Desktop when choosing "Camp to Character Select" and Picking another character to Log In as. Many of the XP Bar mods seem to have code within them that is causing the crash.

I am going to post here what the Old (Broken) Code is, and what the new fixed Code is, for each area that has been changed to fix this.

Within your "eq2ui_mainhud_experience.xml" file find the following lines and change them as directed below.
Old Code:

Code:

<Page actiontype="Experience" BackgroundColor="#00FF00" eq2usescomwndcontrols="true" Location="307,596" Name="Experience" PackLocation="center,bottom" PackLocationProp="-205/0001,-172/0001" ScrollExtent="498,73" Size="498,73" UserMovable="true">

Change it to this New Code:

Code:
