So am i the only one that has to alt-tab 100x an hour to make my UI reappear?

Also what is wrong with the 'tracking camera' going to zoom+slowmo mode?

This is really disappointing, i cant believe you guys are still struggling with the basics :( I know its not very merry of me, but if u cant get a simple box to work, what hope have u got with a online space universe?

I've been ahving my UI disappear, but never all of it, usually its the fitting screen, amrket screen, second chat window, oerview, and other "secondary" widnows that are open, which will then randomly decide to reappear after a bit.

it is frankly quite annoying

Same problem here... it might have to do with memory leak... because windows started to warn me about low memory and such... which never happened before while playing eve....

copy paste from my other post.

Seem I got the same kind of issues... guess it's memory related since it started around the same time windows started to give me warning about low memory...

Running Windows 7 64bits
Intel core 2 duo 3.00ghz
3GB of RAM
GTX 460 (latest drivers in)

The problem is in-game windows (market, orders, etc) simply disappear.

Only seem to happen while in station.

When it happen, I alt-tab in and out of the game and the windows are back... only for them to disappear 30min later...

Tried clearing my cache... didn't work.

Any help?

I have the same problems.

Started after the Rubicon patch for me. After a little while windows disappear/reappear and the RAM usage shoots up to 89% where this is 28% in normal conditions while running EvE. Jita main station seems to have a magnet for this bug. It happens allot more when i'm there.

I haven't tried switching back to DX9. DX11 isn't something new and special so should be working fine in an official release version anno 2014. A customer shouldn't be forced to switch back manually to keep things from happening. Clearing cache doesn't solve it for me. In 50% of the cases it's gone after a single 'alt-tab'. Sometimes it even fixes itself when i wait for 1-3 minutes. When it doesn't respond i relog or simply shut down EvE and go do something else.
It pretty much happens 1-3 times per game session. I checked my PC and OS, but everything seems fine. I don't run any non-related 3rd party programs in the background or voice comms currently. The system is maintained properly and used for gaming only. No downloading and other social activity's from Facebook to pron. EvE voice is turned off too. I could reinstall EvE, but i doubt it will fix it.

When i run 2 accounts on the same machine one of the 2 in random order starts freezing a few seconds, then unfreezes a few seconds. It stops when i jump into another system or dock/undock and the screen needs to reload. it seems to be related to the first problem, because sometimes alt-tabbing helps too to fix it.

Some hardware specs for comparison, however i doubt that the problem is hardware related. For now it doesn't seem to harm my PC so EvE stays installed. When it does then i'm sorry, but removal will be imminent.

EvE settings: Maximum (60 fps stable)
OS: Windows 7 X64 Ultimate
CPU: AMD X6 3400 Mhz
RAM: Corsair Vengeance 8Gb DDR3 1600 Mhz
GFX: EVGA GTX 460 Super Clocked version 2 1Gb (NVidia driver 331.82)

No overclocking.

Just started getting this as well. Opening the neocom menu seems to fix it, at least it did the last time. For me this came with one of most recent updates to the client.
