Photosensitivity Warning cause computer to crash

Some change was added to Cata PTR and a Photosensitivity Warning pops up - once it does its up for 10-20 seconds then crashes. Doesn’t go past it. I did some searching and I saw it is happening on retail ptr as well, but from what I can tell not been fixed. Below is the most recent crash log. I can’t login to test on the ptr at all because of it.

App: /Applications/World of Warcraft/classic_ptr/World of Warcraft Classic Test.app

This is happening to me, too. It appears you’re also on MacOS?

Yes, I have a macbook. After doing some more searching on the forums, I found a few others who had this, someone in the Mac Technical Support channel responded to a thread about this I had posted on and he gave advice what to do. It did work, here’s the thread from there. I copied what he had in it and pasted it at the bottom of the config file after I copied the WTF folder from cata over to cata ptr. It worked after that, I do get an odd lag/freeze but I can actually login now.
