Hey all, looking for some feedback/sgestions that dont involve restarting client. When running the client for a long period of time lets say 5+hrs there becomes fixed effects on the screns such as torpedo effects/impact effects and a permenant warp effect on my client. I was wondering if people had a similar issue and was wondering how people fixed similar problems.

It can become an issue when the clients fine and as soon as one engages inPVP all effects become permenant.

Thanks in advance for those that give feed back.

You cant outrun death forever, but you sure can make the people trying to kill you work for it.

+1. I'm also experience these graphical issues.

Also, structures in space such as stations, structures and acceleration gates disappear.

What kind of hardware are you running? Are the drivers up to date? I've been in game 12 hours plus and never run into this situation.

With regards to GPU im running the Sapphire Toxic HD6850, All drivers are up to date. Running 8GB Ram with quad core CPU running at 2.5Ghz.

After measuring it over the last few days happens on average after 9Hrs+ of having the client open.

Its part of the Graphics bork they got into 1.5 It is still being looked at.

A quick fix for the most part is turning off Anti Aliasing within the game until a fix is released.

Ah! That would be why I don't see them. I have AA turned off since I usually run 6 clients at a time.

It is a problem CCP has been working to tackle for years now. HDR + AA is a pain in the ass for them apparently and when they "Fixed" the ATI Flashing lights issue in 1.5, they broke everything all over again lol. You may be able to run AA without HDR or visa versa, but at the moment they borked something and it is still needing a fix. No biggie but it is a bit annoying (they also borked something with Physx since if I have Physically enhanced chars turned on, it breaks the CQ badly.

Either way hopefully in the next graphics update they move to DX10/11 which is much better with HDR/AA mixed together (in DX11 it is pretty much a requirement to work together at a standard level) so the game has nowhere to go but up in the graphics beauty realm.

Ah cheers, yeah didnt think of that, same Cq Glitches still happening. Just leaving off half of my char. Annoying when you enjoy character spinning? New feature eh? Haha.

Thanks for the fixes

For now. AA off + Ship Spinning rather than CQ is sort of the fix atm. To fix a lot of the Character glitches though you also want to turn off Physically Simulated Cloth and Hair.

Physx got broken too lol.
