Similar issue to Long3130 and Mykkael

iMac Mid 2011 21.5 Inch
500GB Hard DIsk
2.5Ghz i5
8GB DDR3
ATI 6750M 512meg
OSX 10.8.2

Anywhere between 10 and 30 minutes the game freezes, the mouse pointer still works.

Would have reported this before now but not had chance to play on my mac for a while.

Just like most of the people here, i have major issues with the mac client. For no other apps do i EVER have to perform hard resets, but it has become completely necessary for me to do so when the mac client crashes, and lately, that is guaranteed essentially every time i play. Usually after 2 hours of playtime, the game will simply just crash. This has in simple terms $*$%ed up my mac. I also was experiencing an issue where when i would undock, the screen would simply go black, i could still see the overview and other UI features, but i could not see anything like ships, stations etc. Thankfully i could dock up but when i docked i faced yet another black screen.

I'm not trying to sound rude or anything, but the bugs in the mac client are quite unbearable and perhaps the worst i see in any mac apps.

So please fix these problems fast! Evil

Yet another experience of CCP screwing all my settings. Frack you CCP. I am totally fed up with serving as your beta testers and dealing with poor os x support. I mean no disrespect to those in CCP who actually try to help us. Time for me to cancel accounts, move to bootcamp, and start a Star Trek Online account.

I'm another victim of the "silent freezes" - EVE will just freeze, I have to force quit the client and start over. I've checked my logs and I see nothing giving me a clue as to the cause. I can be running a single or multiple clients and it will happen. Usually with multiples just one client freezes, not all.

This APPEARS to be UI related - I notice freezing happens a lot when doing market searches or searching items or people. In space I notice it a lot on initiating warp or sometimes when landing on a gate (about the two worst times to want to crash). It's not session changes though tSo it seems to me something is up with the UI draw as it crashes doing those operations. This explains why it freezes even when AFK in station - local chat or another chat window does a draw and causes the crash.

EVE is the only reason I even have a Windows partition on my machine, don't force me to use it.
