I can zone perfectly fine in capital cities, Darkness Falls and housing zones, but whenever I try to zone in Midgard or Albion main zones game client crashes to desktop. Hibernia works ok, every location loads fine. This happens with every character, obviously I can't even load into the game with any new character on Midgard or Albion because starting zone is a part of the realm' main zone.

I tried everything I could, clean redownloading and reinstalling of both DAoC client and Daoc Portal on different locations, repatching with daoc portal, changed drivers for my videocard back and forth, I deleted character related files in User/AppData daoc folder, nothing helps. I don't have any third party firewall or antivirus software running.

This is a known issue with the OF patch in some regions. What you can do is download these mpk files:
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/15572719/mpka.zip

And replace them with the ones in your game installation respective folders. It should work without crashes after you've done it but you'll need to do it every time DAoC Portal updates anything.

No problem at all. For future notice, you won't even have to keep these mpk files anywhere. They aren't fixed or modified in any way, quite the opposite.

The full process is unpatching your client with DAoC Portal, copying those two files to an alternate location, then applying Uthgard patches and finally overwriting the patched mpk files with the original ones.

I don't know why it works, but it obviously does.
