Taking the opportunity to add yet another (enormously) huge "Thank you" to this thread.

CCP Snorlax (and the rest of the powers that be) yet again to the rescue.

Also Big Up's to all the *nix folks (and the odd Mac and Windows ones aswell) that weighted in on this and kept holding their horses until this got resolved.

Yes... my screens no longer look like part of a '90s scifi wrecked ship or station.

Didn't even see the patch load, just logged in, came back w/coffee...... wth, my screens back!

Checked... all boxes working perfect.
Thanks CCP Snorlax (and cohorts).

Thx m8

Btw is anyone else noticing a memory leak in the client? I have all on high and starting up ExeFile.exe uses 700ish memory but its slowly growing and growing for me. 1.4GiB usage after an hour or two. Yesterday my clients were using 2GiB.

Anyone else got this issue? I haven't noticed this before the patch but i could be wrong. It seems that the HEAP is growing constantly for me.

That the client uses 2 GB is normal. I read about it in the patch notes, it was written that the limit is set to 2 GB per copy. If Eve uses more - then there is a leak. But still can not use more than 4 GB - Eva is 32 bit program.

The client mostly used about 900-1GiB memory, now it grows and grows. Yesterday it was at 2.4GiB usage. Just sitting in Jita at station and checking prices on items is enought for the memory to grow and grow and grow......


Also after this patch, smoke trails on missiles are missing and some people are saying that its behaving differently.

Works again on my Acer 720 chromebook (Ubuntu 13.10, Wine 1.7.12, Haswell graphics, 2GB RAM).

Thanks very much! I thought it was something I'd messed up!

That's not entirely true with multi-threading, and PAE you could use a lot more than 4G. That said I doubt Eve is designed to use more than a couple of G. Generally I try and have at least 2.5-3G per Eve Client or I find I can't run a broswer and teamspeak/mumble, and play tunes...

Former forum cheerleader CCP, now just a grumpy small portion of the community.

System kernel with support multiprocessor(multicore) and PAE and the program with multi-threading and 32bit is a little different. The system kernel can allocate memory at the request of the program, but no more than 4 Gb if it is (program) of 32 bit. And no matter system kernel is 32 bit , PAE or 64bit with 32 bit support. My system kernel is 64bit with 32 bit support and installed 16 gb ram. And use memory 5-6 gb with 2 Eve client and ~2.5 gb without.
