Every time I open Eve since updating to 1.1, my AMD display adapter stops working ad Eve hangs. Was fine an hour or so ago before update

Anyone else experiencing this?

I got it fixed by going to Options>Direct X in launcher and setting it to DX9 instead of DX11

Yes mine too is hanging whilst at a gate.

I've found a workaround by disabling all effects and switching to lowest graphic settings. It now loads at least.

ATI 7770 here.. Same problem i couldn't even log in.

Can confirm this as I'm having the same issue.
Login in the middle of some system, start warp to station and it crashes as soon as the station appears on the screen.

Issue started after patching.
Running hd6950s in xfire config.
Seems like an ATI issue.

Same issue was going around with test server and its updates..

Switching to DX9 will make game 100% playable again...

It pays off to join test server every now and then eh?

As a temporary fix, switching to DX9 should prevent these driver crashes.

The DX team is digging into the issues and should have results soon.

Thank you all for reporting this and helping us generate a fix.

Change your DX setting in the launcher setting menu (tiny cog in the upper right, then select the far right tab).

The DX team should have a solution soon.

Thanks.
