Hello, I am not sure if anybody else is getting this bug, basically when I zoom in and out there's weird unloaded squares.

I've tried reinstalling, clear cache, changing graphics settings and nothing seems to fix it. I don't get this problem on any other game

My GPU is an R9 380 4GB latest drivers, also tried roll back

Screenshot is below

Start saving for a new graphics card and check the correct section of the forums. Blink

CCP - Building ant hills and magnifying glasses for fat kids

Not even once

EVE is becoming shallow and puerile; it will satisfy neither the veteran nor the "WoW" type crowd in the transition.

I looked for somewhere more appropriate to post and couldn't find anywhere related to bugs.

As for the GPU upgrade, thanks...

Here you go

You can do a few tests.
Uninstall and re-install EVE and your graphics drivers.
Get GPU-Z
If you had a graphics software update recently try an older version.

Ah I didn't look hard enough then! Thanks for that.

I have tried all of what you mentioned and no progress with that unfortunately

I thought saying "look for a new videocard" was mean, but seeing the pictures... Your computer isn't supposed to do that with eve. It isn't supposed to do that with anything, and something isn't working right. From experience.



Just reinforcing the whole check drivers before trying new card.

Oh, I perfectly understand, Hal Morsh — a mission like this requires courage, skill, and heroism… qualities you are clearly lacking. Have you forgotten you're one of the bloody immortals!?

Yeah it's quite strange why it only happens with EVE, it never happened before with this card when I played but that was months ago.

Artifacts like that are best troubleshot (troubleshooted?) by opening your case and cleaning out the dust.

It looks like what normally happens when you graphics card is overheating. So clean the case and pull your card. Clean the nooks and crannies in the heatsink with compressed air and carefully clean the fan.

You won't see a pilot try to take off with any dirt at all on his propeller. It takes very little to disrupt the efficiency. Same for video cards.

Oh. That's dithering. Literally, the information isn't drawn-in yet. It's likely a problem with the amount of information your ISP is allowing through. Does your ISP have a reputation for randomly dropping packets to accommodate its over booked servers? Not just one company in life is COMCASTIC!

There just isn't anything that can be said!

The inside of the case is free of any dust I like to keep it clean and tidy.

As for my ISP it's Virgin Media (UK)

I have tried many things to resolve this issue but really I am lost for ideas.

Kind of takes the fun out of the game too when all you see is Minecraft squares (Yes I just said that)

I play a ton of games and have 0 problems. Just EVE

Please use the appropriate sub-forum as already linked to you. I'm sorry to hear about your graphical issues, I had to upgrade my old GTX 8800's because of something similar.

Locking this thread for redundancy. Please create a thread in the Issues, Workarounds & Localization board.
