I notice the starmap for me has stopped working and was wondering If others are having this problem.
I run an nVidia GeForce GTS 450. The map has been working fine till after the recent patch.

I have a problem with my map too.


I recorded it with Fraps and here's a link on youtube of the bug :

EVE BUG


I tried to clear all my cache files

I tried the repair tools


Nothing changes, still the same problem....

Same issue here.

The links between solar systems don't show up sometimes.
I have to change my optimized graphic's settings to fix that.

For example :
- My graphic's settings are in quality mode.
- F10 > I'm encountering that issue.
- Esc > I set graphics in performance mode = problem temporaly solved.

Try to disable HDR or Anti-Aliasing. This should be a workaround for at least one problem with the map (when opening it from the CQ), but I am not sure if it is helping in your case. A proper fix for opening the map or PI from the CQ is currently awaiting deployment (perhaps already tomorrow).

Tried It still doesn't work for me. I'll just wait for the patch.

Unfortunately the problem with missing lines and faint colors in the star map will not be fixed during today's downtime. Ugh

Please try following workarounds: Disable "Shadow Quality" in graphic settings or switch to the flattened star map.

Shadow quality is confirmed.

I just got a starmap bug where the system nodes were very dim and hard to distinguish color-wise, but after setting shadow quality to low, it was immediately fixed. Interestingly, I switched it back to high and it stayed fixed. I've also seen the bug where the system lines are missing, and I'll try this out next time I see it.

I'm also having the same issue. Any idea when it will be fixed. none of the suggestions are helping.

As far as I know all currently known problems are already fixed on Tranquility (but I am at home and have not checked the full list). Please send a bugreport (press F12, last option) and include as much information (screenshots, used settings, ...) as possible.
