hi,

After starting game i see loading bars, then only black screen. I can only use options or quit.
It's same for both of my accounts.
Any1 know what the problem might be? I've tried to logout and back in multiple times and nothing changes. Also repaired EvE using the repair tool and reinstalled.

Found 1 GM answer to send support ticket under stuck character, but that seems to be only one of those which is black also, so i can't write to it :P Lucky me
And i've sent 1 ticket allready 2 days ago
Any advices would be appriciated.

+ 1. I am curious for this answer.

I have experienced this issue before aswell. I encountered the fault jumping through a gate and the session never loaded. I killed the task and relaunched the client.

In talks with other persons in the alliance it seems like this is a common but hard to replicate fault. However I have heard persons complaining about it from comms.

Been over week and still nothing... and i'm paying for 2 accounts Lol
Mine happened when computer booted after power shortage in here.
I think i was docked when this happened and power was off for like 1 sec maybe, just enough to boot.
got error when i tried to start, did repair, still didn't start, repaired again, did start and this black screen.
repaired again 2-3 times, reinstalled and repaired again, but nothing
Everything else is working just fine

Rename the EVE folger within %LOCALAPPDATA%\CCP\ and launch once more. Maybe that'll get you a bit further. If it does, either cache data or settings got corrupted by the power outage.

Game is working again.
Don't know what was wrong exactly, but they did fix it.
