Having major issues after Frostline patch! Client freezing for 30-60s every time you jump thru a gate. Really horrible.

Tried reinstalling client, emptying cache etc. Nothing seems to work Straight

Heard few people having same problem with older GPU's. Might be related to that.

edit: switching to new beta launcher didn't help either. Bug report submitted: EBR-63101

Stats:

iMac (late 2009) / Yosemite
3.06 GHz core 2 duo
8 gb ddr3
Nvidia geforce 9400

Me too. After the last patch the client is running like poop. Takes long to load, sometimes getting a black screen on launch, lots of lag.

And the weirdest thing is now when I open the IGB it will launch another instance of Eve in the Dock (it does not actually launch a new instance, just shows one in the dock). Closing the IGB will also close the new instance in the dock.

It's really a pity that the freezing bug breaks my game. Everything else works like a charm, even the IGB. I even get ok'ish fps if I switch to "interval immediate" from graphical settings.

I am having the exact same issue on Mac.

Everytime I jump through a gate I face 10-45seconds of freeze before the system loads. Unplayable.

I am having the following issues after i updated the launcher (last version).

- laggy render after you exit a station
- game freezes when opening the IGB
- game freezes randomly while in space (very annoying, you can get podded because of this)


i already opened 2 tickets with CCP but no response...

The IGB is suppose to do that when it is launched - have the extra icon in dock.

As my iMac is 2012, I don't know if these issues are related to your computers age.

I have not had any of these issues - only problem I have is Orbital Camera on jump bridges, which was suppose to have been fixed (haven't tried it yet)

I am a big fan of Mac ports and having it install Wine via terminal - I don't know if that effects any thing.

But, for you all, as it seems to be a GPU, I would lower your graphics and begin disabling the stuff in the middle of the grapic options.
