Do you want CCP to send someone to your house to change the settings on your computer?

No, the nebula are fine, this is from a rat that blows up and it happens at random, but it happens a lot

Have you submitted a bug report, while it's happening?

That way, CCP can get some details about it. (some logs are copied, when you do the submit within the game)

After all, it's obviously (First report I've seen) not a common problem, so it's likely something semi specific to your computer.

Woo! CSM XI!

a random forum post isn't going to do much about it. A bug report would be the better tool, I think if you report it in game it captures some of the important details about what is going on. there is also a screenshot button that you can use to easily upload a screenshot.

that said I'm really bad at writing bug reports,

It (infrequently) happens to me as well, but since I’m playing on a sub-spec Mac laptop, I’ve always assumed that it was just my stressed out graphics card taking a quick break.

"Enduring", "restrained" and "ample" as designations for starship components are foreign to the genre of high-tech science fiction and don’t belong in Eve Online. (And as for “scoped” …)

This has happened over the years for me as well and I've submitted a bug report and posted an image of the issue on the forums as well. HOWEVERRRRRRRRRRRRR it hasn't happened in a while after I changed my display settings to window mode.

And please .... talking in vent/ts3 other players have known about this issue as well so don't play the, "huh, what you talking about bruh?"

Happens to me pretty often. I'm using a Radeon 5870. Sometimes it's a full screen white-out, sometimes only half a screen. Sometimes zooming in real close to my ship and twirling the camera around makes it go away.

This has been happening intermittently since I started playing four years ago. I've seen many other people complain about it as well. It's not common in the sense that it doesn't happen often, but it seems to happen to quite a few people.

Unfortunately this is something CCP has known about for several years, many bug reports have been given and yet CCP does nothing about it. I had this start a few years ago as well. Happens on brand new systems, etc. Its been in a few threads in the issues and workaround section were I found many people it affects.

Its happening cuz of the explosions. I get full white, half screen white, yellow, blue and what looks like a bigger colorful explosion on the screen with blues, greens and yellows obscuring a lot of the screen. Happens mostly in Jita but Ive had it happen in high, low and null as well. Always when someone or something blows up.

Turning off the explosions or other visual settings in the Escape menu doesnt change anything either, Ive tried, and considering in the last thread from several years ago its not like its even on CCPs list of things to fix.

So just saying its a known issue but that I dont have any hope CCP will fix it ever.

Have you heard anything I've said?

You said it's all circling the drain, the whole universe. Right?

That's right.

Had to end sometime.

Its not a driver issue. Ive used several different cards, hell I bought a brand new card and updated it hoping to fix this issue. Even with everything up to date itll do it.
