Ever since the update my client crashes almost every time I warp. Anyone else with this problem?

CCP broke the game. I think they are aware of this this crashing issue.

I think you're looking for that thread and try clearing your cache, usually works

Switch to Direct X 9 through the options menu in the launcher.

Why? Never had a problem with DX11.

There is a DX-related driver crash that has been causing issues for some users upon jumping/starting up in space.

Switching to DX9 has stopped the driver failures for users reporting the issue. That fix should work until the DX team delivers a more robust solution. They are hard at work now.

Thanks for reporting it.

I had something like this on the test server a few days ago where it crashed when I exited warp or session change but updating my gfx card drivers solved it.

I got two crashs after the patch (using dx9).

I did about an hour and half of exploration no problem (after the patch)
went back to do my PI, crashed twice while warping to the pocos.

I've been having this happen since the last patch. Will switch to DX9 and see if that works.

Had the same problem straight after the patch. Have reported it to support, so hopefully it gets fixed soon. Been running eve fine (was on this morning before patch) on DX11, if anything DX11 has been better. It's only when warping in to mission zones for me, I can warp fine to gates etc.

On my 10th crash since 1.1 release using dx 11, seems to be whenever I come out of warp and land specifically on a stargate.

Everything else is looking good in 1.1, nice work and thanks for working hard to fix the broked suffz! Roll

I optimized graphics to performance, it doesn't crash anymore. It looks mighty hideous, but it works.

And if not using the launcher? Any ways?

Edit: the memory tips above fixes it, but doesnt look very good, but :)

And before someone says, use it! I have tried fix it but nothing works, support failed helping too. Only way for me to play is using the "old work around" with the exe file in BIN folder. Tried reinstalls, formating computer and only eve on it etc, nothing...

I've been having the same issue since the last patch as well. If I don't run the repair tool after not playing for a while (give or take about 8 hours) my client will freeze within seconds of loading a char. Running DX9.

DX9 does stop the crashes, though the framerate is low and erratic.
