Macintosh

Game crashes every few minutes! It started a week ago on new iMac but happened occasionally and din't disturbed me much, now every time I am in warp game could crash.. got it crashed 5 times during 2 system jump. It just freezes and thats all. I am not even telling about windowed mode...

iMac: Lion 10.7.2; 16 gb., Radeon HD6970M 1024m

And that also happened to me!

Since Crucible v1.1, including v1.1.1, and v1.1.2, the EVE client is not responding properly to my mouse clicks and drags. I launch the program, login, and enter the hangar UI. Everything displays as expected, but nothing really responds properly to the mouse. It's difficult to select anything, typically taking multiple left-clicks even to just change focus on a window. Selecting icons or buttons is similarly problematic. Getting right-click context menus is a joke because usually the program doesn't seem to know where the mouse pointer is, so selecting a menu item from a menu is pretty much impossible. If I do manage to select an object, say a ship in the Ships window or an item in the Items window, dragging it just doesn't work. Moving or resizing windows doesn't work. In the hanger view, ship spinning doesn't work. Either the ship doesn't respond properly or it will randomly spin wildly.

The system does seem to respond to keyboard inputs, so I can change focus on windows using ctrl-TAB. But even then actually clicking on a control in the focused window is pretty random. I can exit the program with the ESC menu and then tabbing a lot to the Quit button and hitting Return.

This problem seems rather inconsistent. The other day I logged in and everything worked just fine. I could select and move windows. I could push buttons and select icons and drag them around. Then when I logged in later that evening, no mouse movements or clicking worked at all. I exited the program using the ESC menu and tabbing a lot to the Quit button. I launched again and I had *some* mouse control, although very flakey and incomplete. By manipulating the focus through the ctrl-TAB menu, I could get some input into a chosen window, but it required a lot of extraneous clicking around. Frequently the mouse location input to the program was different than the position of the mouse pointer on the screen.

I initially reported this in the main Crucible v1.1 issues thread and I've filed a petition with CCP on this issue, but have basically heard no response back from them.

Anyone else experiencing this problem?

I am using Mac OS X 10.6.8 on an iMac with 3.6 GHz Intel Core i5, 4GB memory, ATI Radeon HD 5750 graphics adapter, 2560x1440 display.

EDIT: I should add that I also tried removing the cache and settings folders in the Library/Application Support/ folder, per GM Xamother's suggestion, but to no avail.

Im having the same problem (for a week now). I have reinstalled the game couple of times and it worked fine for some time but the problem keeps coming back. Basically the client starts but instead of login screen the screen goes black or nothing happens after the crucible screen. Any help here? Paying for the game and not being able to play is starting to get a bit frustrating

Ok, it's not working...
I've reinstalled the client, experimented with graphic settings = same results, update didn't help, now my ship flies side way in warp tunnel, tunnel faces wrong direction but this doesn't cause any problems. What was not happening prior to last update - freezing in station without obvious reason:(

P.S. Can i pay half the price for the half of quality?

Me too!

Client has been behaving wonderfully for many months, until the latest patch. Found my brand new Thanatos in the middle of a haven besieged by who knows how many dps, when the screen froze. Waited for several minutes trying various mouse maneuvers. Nothing budged. No movement except for the rounds being fired at me and the Haven rats flying.

At last I was able to get out of there by "Force Quitting" the Macintosh.

Thank you for all your hard work.

Exactly the same issues as marius gabinus above. Since 1.1 mouse input (actually, I'm using a trackpad) usually doesn't work properly. Right clicks produce context menus in the wrong places and trying to click and drag windows results in randomness, or nothing at all. Keyboard input seems fine. Once or twice I managed to right click and select Rest Camera, and that seemed to correct things for awhile.

Resizing between full screen and windowed at least twice has given me back mouse control. I once had it work flawlessly for an entire day after 1.1.2 and I thought it was fixed. Alas not. Have tried clearing my cache.

Client also crashes ALL THE TIME. No errors, just freezes. Can be on the logon screen or while sitting idle in a station - I can't see any pattern.

No mods, addons or funny business - it was a clean install only 2 months ago.

I'm not one for idle threats, and I haven't been playing the game much, so if this keeps up it's no biggie to just unsubscribe. It's not playable for me right now at all.

This is obviously a serious issue. Perhaps I have missed it elsewhere, but as the beta testers it would be nice to get some feedback from CCP.

After a few successful starts, and quits, Mac will basically stop responding to anything. Have to do a power button reset. Have consistently had this problem after playing Eve for several months. Often nukes preferences like chat windows and overviews. Seeing more screen freezes and client crashes after moving back to 00--sorry, but that is crap.

I am having the same issue when I try to start Eve. I have a new IMac that is completely up to date with 8 Gb RAM.
