Thx very much CCP Habakuk and CCP Gangieri,

I did all the steps to install the client for SISI. So I started the client in the hope to give you guys some feedback, but whats that ? No POS in the wormhole system we live in only a Rorqual and some containers showed up on d-scan. So CCP I am very sorry I can't give any feedback about the framerate issue without a POS nearby, oh and I can't even scan my way out cause I don't have a probe launcher on my Tengu ;)

Cheers

PS : Self destruction should work, but where do I find a POS ?


go to sisi and go to the Moveme channel and follow the instructions in the MOTD.

From there you can buy a pos and put it up or just use that system as that is 99% of the people on SiSi are at.

As stated above, you got to put up a new POS. They are for sale most everywhere for 100 isk on Sisi. The reason they are all removed when CCP mirrors TQ to Sisi is so players cannot use Sisi to find all the POSes of their enemy with no risk to themselves.

Hi!
An improvement for general performance problems is now available on our test server Singularity. I am not sure how much this affects Mac users, but please check it out if you are plagued with low fps since Inferno 1.1 and give feedback in this thread.


Sitting at Jita 4-4, Jita cam view: Sisi: 20 fps. TQ, Inferno 1.1.5: 30 fps, limited by the interval setting. 1.1.5 seems to have really helped. If I set it from "interval default" to "interval immediate" I get 45 fps.

Edit: Sitting at a POS is now at 20 fps, and it was some painfully low value I did not record.

Todays patch made a massive difference for me.

Same place as before on TQ went from 30ish FPS to 110 FPS with todays patch

Hope it works for me too.

FPS is about the same when idle but when opening a wreck or container in space, FPS drops to 25. When looting any wreck or container with loot all button, FPS drops to 4-5 and it takes about 1.5 seconds to loot each item (so a wreck with 5 items takes 7.5 seconds to loot)

The client freezes for a few seconds/seems to hang in limbo whenever I do anything involving a session change, use the market to check prices and again after I sell the item, and when I am am connecting at login.
The new inventory does not remember the 'my filters' preference ever. I still have to minimize that POS every time.
The velocity display on the HUD still freezes sometimes.

So look, I appreciate you guys doing what you do to make this game work but heres the deal:

For me it the launcher stopped working entirely. It was working fine a couple days ago, then all of a sudden it started with the Eve Online Launcher Exception giving me a bunch of code and wouldn't even at least take me to the login.

I don' know squat about computers and I literally just got the subscription so do something please.

Ps: It launched miraculously once and I got some game time in before waking up to it doing the same this it did before that.

I'm currently in Afghanistan and all I want to do is play this game. For some reason unknown the launcher updater stops on 3/7 steps, closes and then restarts and the process just keeps on repeating. I've been on the forums for days trying to figure this out. I'm completely at a loss here. I have a Mac. Any feedback/help would greatly be appreciated. I've deleted all files, redownloaded the client. When I try to run the client in the top left corner it says it's only on version 7.40 something. So then a new build download prompt appears and asks to download 17mb for the new build. It downloads then closes the whole program but then nothing happens there either.

It is possible that the hardware you are using to connect to the internet is not compatible with the protocols used by the launcher, please file a petition so the customer support specialists can work out a solution with you.

Thanks for getting back to me so quickly. It is possible there could be an issue with the gear here. The company I work for is using outdated equipment but is in the process of getting better gear. They use Watchguard and have the security settings pretty high. I gave the IT guy the Tranquility Server IP address and port number and he added it. It still is doing this. What's interesting is my buddy is using a Windows based laptop and lives a few doors down out here and he can play fine. I'll try the petition like you said. Can you think of anything else I could possibly try? THanks.

I am on my new macbook pro retina, I felt everything so squash specially the text. I play on 1280 x 800 scale eve client(greater scale don't feel as comfortable as 1280 x 800, if you play on any scale greater than 1440 x 900 eveything is tiny!).

I hope CCP could optimize it in the near future.

Thank you.

After the patch I can't launch the game at all, once I click play from the launcher it closes and nothing happens. Tried resetting cache both in the launcher and in the application support folder, as well as restarting the mac. Nothing unusual appears in the console logs.

I don't have time to test it on any of my other machines right now, but will test it on my alternate rigs with 10.6.8 and 10.8 a little later tonight.

Edit: Ran the Mac Repair tool, it claims to have fixed a few things and downloaded a 9.7 MB patch, but still doesn't launch.

It also will not launch from a second OS X user account. It will take 7 hours to download the full client again on my current network, this is a bummer.

Edit #2: I re-downloaded and re-installed the entire client again and still had the same issue with the app closing silently after hitting play in the launcher. I checked my console logs and found the message:
wine: '/users/my home account/Library/Application Support/Eve Online/wineserver-nameofmylocalnetwork.local' must not be accessible by other users

So I went into the ~/library/Application Support/Eve Online folder and deleted the 4 wineserver folders, and now Eve Online works fine again. I'm not sure why this folder would suddenly be messed up when installing the update, but I am back in business now.



I had the same in issue on 2011 iMac
Lion 10.4

However in the console i got "fd bad file descriptor" message.

Deleting hthe wineserver solved the problem.

MacBook Pro 15" 12-2010
2.66GHz Intel Core i7
8GB 1067MHz DDR3 SDRAM
OS X Mountain Lion 10.8.1 (23.08.2012)

Graphics settings all on low, sound on and working.
English language.
Doesn't matter if windowed mode or fullscreen.
Running only one client.

Problem 1:
Since I upgraded my Mac to OS X 10.8.1 a few weeks ago, I have extreme long loading times until I can select my character. The launcher itself opens up fast and nice as usual but when I click on PLAY it takes about 2 minutes until I can actually enter my password, then it takes at least another 3-4 minutes (!!) till the character selection screen appears. All the while it says 'Authenticating', 'Preparing game...' etc. which lasts way longer than before the update to 10.8.1. Especially the authenticating part I think! Pls fix.

Once I'm ingame, everything works fine! Only the initial loading times are a problem.

Problem 2:
edit: one thing I noticed ingame is that the mousepointer from my usb mouse (Logitech anywhere mx, full batteries) lags like hell as long as my timemachine backup is backuping to my time capsule! I am unable to use the mouse as long as the backup is running and have to use the trackpad which works just fine. This issue was NOT there before patching to OS X 10.8.1.

edit: disregard that, the state has fallen.
