Add another too the list. A return to DX9 helped for hours and now It's gone to hell on me. Staying firmly docked :P

happened to me as well, near gate, every single flapping time i re-logged until i figured i'd disable dx11 which made it usable but still got 2 crashes over 9 jumps

high end ati card, 8gb ram, six core processor, windows 7

DO YOU PEOPLE EVEN TEST YOUR BUILDS BEFORE DEPLOYING?

Running Radeon 4890, DX9 only.

Crashing anytime there is large amounts of activity on the screen, ie Jita undock, was poking around in a WH, warped to a POS to check it out and immediately crashed again.

I take it this is only affecting ATI users?

Similar problem here; warping to jump gate when my drivers crash and I blue-screen. Changing to DX9 has solved the problem for now.

System Specs:

AMD A10-5800K APU
6GB DDR3 1600MHz RAM
MSI AMD Radeon HD 7770 (Stock clock speed, latest Catalyst drivers

Was having this same problem, switching to DX9 seems to have fixed it for now. Oddly enough the problem didn't start after patching, was on for over an hour after patching with no problems. Issues started after a client restart. Once the driver crashed/EVE blackscreened out, other things (like opening Chrome) would make the gfx driver enter a cycle of crash/recovery that was only escaped by a reboot.

Btw you need to launch game from launcher to mantain dx9 settings. If I launch game directly from exefile (its faster), it will reset itself back to dx11. At least for me.

Same issue.

Get same message as all others, whenever i try to go through a gate, and happened 3 times in a row attempting to load jita.

Never had this happened before until the recent 1GIG patch (literally like 7-8 times in 2 hrs yesturday evening).

Same Issue.

Windows 7 64-bit
Sapphire Radeon 7970

It does seem to be an AMD issue based on every single response being from an AMD user thusfar.

Switching to Direct X 9 does appear to have helped, as I'm no longer suck in Jita. xD

Just to give you guys an update - we do have an inhouse repro of a driver crash and are working on a fix (or a workaround, rather - this does smell like a driver bug).

Hopefully we'll have something soon - I'll keep you posted.

It's not a driver bug when it was working perfectly fine before you broke it and tons of other games that are light years ahead of eve in graphics work just fine.

It may be a bug between your software and the driver, and possibly a mismatch in their specifications for all I know, but I'd like to confirm that it's not a bug in the driver itself independent of eve. To be blunt, you guys broke something yesterday, not AMD.

Eve was working fine yesterday, and has been for the last fortnight. By coincidence, I ran an ultra-setting bioshock infinite benchmark yesterday.

This machine was build brand new from components a fortnight ago. The version of eve running here has been patched only once. It was installed from whole cloth via your downloader two weeks ago, so it too is fresh.

Today, the graphics driver is crashing, but *only* when eve is open and I am undocked doing things.

I mostly crash around stargates, but I have had a crash in a wormhole gas site.

The number of things around does not seem to be a factor, I've been docking and undocking from jita all day, never had a crash on the undock, only on stargates and that one gas site.

The beatings will continue until posting improves. -Magnus Cortex
