We have definitely been able to replicate the undock camera "reset" (appears the camera drones are attempting to remember their previous settings before they exist) so we'll be throwing a fix for that up onto the test server as soon as we can.

In a perfect world, the change would also correct issues with all other session changes, and without any noticeable side effects. I am pretty sure this is a perfect world, but in the event that it isn't, having some additional perspective on the issue would be great.

So if anyone still experiencing the camera reset would like to play around on Singularity after it updates and give us a holler when/if the camera resets, that would be above and beyond. Keep shouting!

I ran about 20 jumps on singularity with no problems, but as soon as I jumped a gate with the client minimized, it did zoom in. Seems to be easily repeatable. Every gate jump with the client minimized it will zoom in.

On tranquility it happens without the client minimized, intermittently. Don't think I've ever done 3 jumps with it not zooming in. Easily repeatable.

Camera reset with a minimized client is always accompanied with a strange short sound like air suction like wooop. If you hear it you can be sure that the camera is sucked into your ship right now. I play with turned off sounds except NPCs voices and interface, and this strange sucking sound clearly heard almost every time after gate jumping. So I can say this bug literally sucks.

Hiya,

I have been having this issue since before Rubicon tbh.

It doesn't happen every time I do a session change but there *are* things that can guarantee it happening.

At first glance a small bug but after a whole day of semi afk grinding standing through Distribution I am irritated to the point where I'm getting tempted to throw something out of the window.

I can't say for sure as the camera reseting seems a bit random but every station and stargate resets it. Sometimes it zooms all the way down to the ship and sometimes only partially.

Have this issue on all my accounts since Rubicon, very annoying. 90% of time when I am jumping/undocking, the camera is fully zoomed in.

What is ETA on fix?

Had an interesting variation on the theme last night - went through a gate and was zoomed out so far my ship was a tiny dot. Interesting fisheye effect on the view.

Rest camera view had no effect nor did zooming in. Session changes didn't fix it, had to quit and restart.

Ummm....no it isn't. every so many random jumps through stargates my camera still resets.

New Icon SiSi feedback thread that got wholly ignored!

An example of that a good ship icon set looks like.

Bump this up for a little attention.

Also something that may help, assign the zoom in / out to keys.

I assigned zoom out to 'G' and zoom in to 'H'. Makes it a little easier.

This is not fixed. In fact it seems to happen more often than before.

Hi all,

We deployed a fix for camera issues in today's patch, I'd really like to know if people are still experiencing anything untoward with regards to camera behaviour. It seems that some people may be experiencing the camera clipping into the geometry of their ship after gate jumps - this isn't something that we have so far been able to reproduce internally so I would really like to collate any and all information from the people experiencing it.

If this issue is occurring, please file a bug report using the in-game bug reporting tool (accessible via the F12 menu), giving as much information as you can, including but not limited to the ship you are flying and any actions (fitting, loading cargo and such) that you carried out before the issue presented itself. Please file it under the Graphics category

If you are flying with anyone that states they are experiencing these issues, I would greatly appreciate if you could refer them to this post. The more information we get about the problem, the quicker we are likely to be able to fix it.

Thank you for your continued patience if you are one of the people affected by this issue.

My alt will fill out a bug report as soon as I have Eve re-installed.

This post was pointed out to me in the middle of new computer day.

I was not having this problem until today after the patch and she is the only account affected. This happened during a 26 jump hauling operation in a Providence out of Jita to Teonasude. Every single jump the camera slammed into the center of the ship. Seeing that I have not been having this problem, suddenly having it was startling.

I'll bug report it with more detail.
