Ingame browser and ship viewer completely broken

I'm unable to use the ingame browser or ship/model/... viewer in any way. I've already filed a bug report on it (over a week ago) but nobody got back to me. I'm hoping someone here either has the same problem and can tell me how to fix it or someone official takes notice.

I'm basically gonna just post my bugreport text here again, as that explains the problem in as much detail as I can. Bug Report ID is 131883. There is a screenshot attached to the report, I'll try to include it at the bottom.


Tranquility - EVE-EVE-TRANQUILITY - 7.31.356901

I noticed recently that neither my ship viewer ("Preview" window when clicking on the picture in the show-info-window of any ship) nor the in game browser are working. At all.

Both windows themselves are displayed, but simply remain empty. In the case of the ship viewer the whole window has the default UI color, only the text is displayed (Ship name, faction & type as well as length). The browser window shows only back inside the tab (otherwise it´s fine).

The Browser is clearly working correctly ´behind the scenes´ though: not only does it show "loading complete" in the status bar, the curser also changes appropriately when passing over places where a link would be (to the pointing hand), or over a text field (to the vertical bar for input cursor placement).

Additionally I have just noticed that the correct content flashes very briefly at the moment of docking (when the display is reinitialized to display the ship). This only applies to the browser though, the ship preview window remains empty.

I should probably add that I've tried clearing cache as well as clearing settings. Nothing helped so far in any way...

This looks odd. Did you try other graphics settings (especially HDR, antialiasing and texture quality). Also, what kind of graphics card are you using? This might be some issue with render textures.

Looking for more thoughts? Follow me on Twitter.

Of course, tried turning all kinds of settings on/off. It's a Radeon HD 6850, latest Catalyst.
Especially the part about the browser obviously rendering it to SOMEWHERE it pretty odd...
