IF you have trouble with Framerate and blurry text in Eve and other games after updating Adobe Flash try to uninstall it.

EVE uses flash?


IF true, that would be a bigger security issue than saying your password on twitter.

EVE does not use flash. Flash may mess with GFX rendering somehow.
On adobes page they say Mozilla browser user have trouble . Don't know if it is realated.

I don't think you got the part were EVE doesn't use flash, so flash isn't going to be the cause of any framerate issues while you're playing EVE.

Unless, maybe, you're running some sort of flash application in a browser while playing EVE, but I don't see how that would effect anything other then whatever it is that flash is doing within the browser.

Perhaps you can explain how flash would be causing a drop in framerate in a game that doesn't use it?

Stressing the gfx-card with bugged processes. Other Games were effected, too.
Rebooting did not help. Uninstall did. Reinstalled flash, now it works fine.

Confirming uninstalling Flash resolved major multi-client performance issues for me as well.

Thanks, OP.

Firefox user here, no problem with Adobe Flash (however always use security plug ins)

Well, there are certainly issues and arguments for that.

But if everything that screws up your hardware should die, EVE would've been gone ages ago. There's not a single program I ran that had more memory leaks, and put more stress on my hardware, than EVE has done.

Not a single high-end FPS game have ever put as much stress on my gfx card that they melt one, but EVE did. Memory leaks and boot.ini have affected my OS more than anything else in any similar fashion.

..but we can go back to hating on Flash, if you want, just pointing out that virtually everything you use has a potential to be ruining your PC. EVE actually being quite damn high up on that list. P

The flash uses 100% cpu then when you close your browser it keeps running in the background

Looks like you know a lot about Flash and EVE. So, could you help me with one problem?

Framerate drops to unplayable level when I only run one EVE client and try to watch ATX stream when there's something happening in there. So, what could cause this?

unrelated to eve

the real problem is that firefox and flash have not been the best of friends inside the computer lately, and the newest update really hoses embedded video using flash. (try scrolling a page with a youtube video on it)

part of the problem is adobe, part is firefox
I can't even run any SC5 programs(made by adobe... hurr...) when firefox, thunderbird, steam or anything that uses flash (made by adobe...durr...) is running

Adobe Flash is the worst piece of software currently installed on my box. Problems without end. I'm looking forward to the day it actually dies. The sooner the better!

I don’t know if everyone is aware but with Windows 7 if you open Control Panel there is a Flash Player (32Bit) app that allows you to adjust some settings within Flash Player.

I always select ‘Block all sites from using the camera and microphone’ and ‘Block all sites from using peer-assisted networking’ to stop Flash Player from uploading stuff without my knowledge.

Oh wow, they have that p2p "we can't afford our own bandwidth" crap enabled by default?

Brb, uninstalling flash on principle.
