Just wanted to get some feed back from players and CCP about how EVE works with OSX 10.10

don't wanna update if I can't play EVE

I can't say that it runs perfectly, as I didn't even have time to undock, but the launcher launches the game and the CQ loads and runs.

If there are any problems, they're not blatant. I'll see if I can muster the time to do some session changes, since that seems to be one of the ultimate stress tests for the Mac client.

The only information I can provide officially is that we do not support it yet.

Works for me! Undocked and use my standard tools. No issues so far.

Thanks Ran Talle-Kuo.

I'll check up here for info come morning. Then if I don't see anything, I'll update!

I got to zip around a little tonight, and I have to say, for something that isn't officially supported yet, it's pretty slick.

If you're not feeling adventurous, by all means wait for official support. Yosemite is a significant update.

Upgraded to Yosemite this morning. Launcher and game seem to work fine, but my client hangs and eternally beachballs when I try to alt-tab out of the EVE client. :( Can't even access the force-quit menu to shut it down that way.

Probablythe one reason I run window mode.

If I remember right, control+apple+ESC force quotes. If not control than option/alt.

I will upgrade in a few and post any information it get.

Restarted and re-tried, now it seems to work fine. I think it might have been a combination of installing updates at the same time as running EVE.

Everything seems to be working great for me. I'm rather enjoying the new OS X look. cleaner/flatter.

+ EVE rocks!

Yeah, EVE does not like sharing its connection with anything else, especially not something that's using a lot of network traffic.

So far, since I upgraded to 10.10 the launcher still works and the client will load, allow me to select a character and then load the game environment but after a few seconds the client throws an exception and then exits.

Logged a support ticket, I was advised that 10.10 is not officially supported and there is no confirmed date they can provide for when it will be supported.

Could we maybe get a little more info as a community. I'm sure someone reading this has had the same problem and found a work around...

Hit us up, and use us. No need to lose out on our EVE time for support on an OS that CCP has had the chance to test for four months.

And seeing as many people who are not having problems, maybe we can figure out what is different, and help you fix it.

Talk to you soon.

edit: p.s. And as busy as CCP is with patching EVE every 6 weeks, i'm sure a freebie from the community for supporting most powerful OS, would be very beneficial to them. Lol

I can confirm that there are hangs and crashes of Eve while playing on OS X 10.10


I've not noticed any pattern yet, but it does generate a crash dump if you allow it.

Thank you!
I don't know what those mean. Not a programer, but I am grateful for everyones help, and the information we can provide to CCP to see (I hope) a timely support for 10.10.


-Some tips I might make to people.

Make sure to repair your permissions via Disk Utility in the Application > Utility Folder.
See if a computer restart does anything. (I know I had some system wide lag after the update and another restart has helped.)

I can't think of anything else that might help.
Anyone else have tips/tricks?

I'm continuing to have issues when alt-tabbing out of the EVE client (running in full-screen mode). Sometimes it works fine, but other times it hangs and either needs to be force-quitted or sometimes only a force restart (holding down the power button to power off the computer) will work.

I've also had the unhandled page fault error mentioned above once or twice too.
