Pet problems

Whenever i try to open the pet interface, the game crashes; is this happening to anyone else or just me?

Do you happen to have Pet Auto Craft (PAC) addon installed? Using PAC and not having a pet in slot 1 has be known to cause the issue you're having.

Try to summon it after you've done a uninstall permanently.
I would drape myself in velvet if it was socially acceptable.

LOL... Summoning pet after permanent uninstall is ingenious.

Are all yall going to talk OP through savevariables.lua fix - you know the one that actually does get rid of the problem?

Maybe this is what vfwiffo was trying to say...

Old old problem, has to do with corrupted setting file. Go to your My Documents, then Runes Of Magic, then the character that is having issues. Delete savevariables.lua. Make sure it is in character specific folder, not the main folder - that savevariables.lua is common to all the characters and is not the source of the problem.

Once you do that, your character specific setting will be lost and need to be recreated. But the setting that causes pet menu crash will be gone too.

If this for some reason doesn't solve your issue then I refer back to what I originally posted as it was how I resolved the same described crashing problems a while back.

Indeed, that is what I was referring to. Thanks for reposting. That was posted many times, by myself and others.

I am not entirely sure the PAC problem is exactly as you described; I heard of people having this issue who I believe had the pet in 1st slot. I know of at least one person solved this by taking PAC off, restarting toon, quitting (to write clean toon-specific savevariables.lua) and then reinstalling PAC. I don't know if this is reliable fix or not; just removing the file and letting system recreate it works every time I recommended it. There is next to nothing in that file of any value - most setting are saved in general savevariables.lua, not the toon-specific one.
