Have tried different shader, LOD, other settings.. rebooted, reinstalled, relogged, repaired, anything I could think of... Creator still runs up to 100% (or maybe 99.99??) and hangs.. have waited up to hour and a half, just in case it was volume of users and was running slow, but no go..

I am having the same issue. Very annoying to be told you have a new toy to play with but you can't open the box that it is in.

I sorted it out but I was dead lucky. The character Creator seemed to sit and be loading for ages so I pressed escape and left it there. Eventually the log off screen came up and I closed window and there was my toon ready to be messed up. Hope that works for some of you. I have managed to do something with 2 out of 4 so far but it's a long process.

Only way I could get it to work for me was to do it in windowed mode.
Still made a mess of him tho.

I'm having the same issue, I can bypass it, play eve just fine, look at others avatars, but can't create my own. I figure it has something to do with the PC hardware as I've changed every setting one at a time, cleared cache, reinstalled, nada.

I was having similar issues, but going to windowed mode did the trick for some reason.

Same here, it just hangs on loading screen. when running on:
Windows XP prof. sp2 AMD Athlon 64 3200+ 2GB RAM Nvidia GF 6600GT
Will try on my other pc (intel core2, Nvidia GF-8600) and see if it works later.

Same issue. Cannot get into Character Creation mode. Just sits there after the progress bar indicates 100%. I have done everything short of rebuilding my very standrad configuration PC that has allowed me to play Eve for two years.
I do not understand what is meant by "windowed mode" in this thread.

Ruyne my alt tried playing with graphics settings set em high set em low windowed full screen different resolutions. I even yelled at it and threatened it with a fork. Now the second account Zasx is slightly different. Different os and chipset video card etc. Zasx is letting me see after a long wait what I am going to look like. Then I go over to the portrait screen and it just sits on the little please wait roundy loading bar thing forever. I only played with it for 4 hours before becoming completely frustrated. I am not buying two new computers and yes they are both soec2 or whatever it is. I am not impressed hope this gets fixed soon and doesn't bone me out of anything.

hopefully there will be a fix before it's required to change your char and not be able to play eve.

Hit escape (esc key), go to a menu for the display (far left I think), option should be middle left of the screen.
Once in windowed mode you should see a bar at the top of the screen. Can't miss it, but it may (or may not) look different depending on your version of windows.

dudes, there are at least three threads about this issue. plz read before you post.
updating your videocard driver does the trick for most people. it doesn't matter that you can log into the game normally. the char creator is a different section and requires the latest GFX update. hopefully this'll solve your problems.

I have the same problem and my drivers are updated as a matter of fact I never allow my drivers to be out of date. There's nothing wrong on our end this is ccp's fault. If I get locked out of eve cuz of this I will really be bummed especially seeing I JUST returned to the game, I don't care if ccp has to randomize my portrait, I just hope they don't lock me out of game. Btw guys people keep reposting about this because ccp is completely ignoring our petitions.. And threads like this are going no where or being lost in a wall of complaints from others, this needs to be fixed ASAP.

Edited by: Dani WH on 20/01/2011 13:24:32 You guys need a graphics card that supports Shader Model 3.0
in example I have a FX5200 and only supports 2.0 or lower. I can view others characters but can't create my one, the screen appears black.
A nvidia 6200 or an ATI x500/x800 and further models support it, they are low-end cards released around year 2005.
google your card model and find if it supports SM 3.0, if not you need to buy a new one to use the new character creator.
If you can't afford one or dont want to spend money, I suggest you borrow a modern computer from a friend and design your characters, then you will be able to play on your regular computer as you have been until now. But remember that next expansion will bring Walking in Stations, and then a modern graphhics card will be MANDATORY.

Absolutely same problem here the creator runs up to 100 % and then nothing happens.
I see the the race selection dialogues if creating new one on a free lot then it will freeze as well. Pod |

So, it looks like the Shader Model 3 is the problem, as stated above.
Here's a list of older Nvidia GPU's that support it.
Desktop GPUs NVIDIA GeForce 7900 GTX NVIDIA GeForce 7900 GT NVIDIA GeForce 7800 GTX NVIDIA GeForce 7800 GT NVIDIA GeForce 7800 GT NVIDIA GeForce 7600 GT NVIDIA GeForce 6800 Ultra NVIDIA GeForce 6800 GT NVIDIA GeForce 6800 GS NVIDIA GeForce 6800 NVIDIA GeForce 6800 XT NVIDIA GeForce 6800 LE NVIDIA GeForce 6600 GT NVIDIA GeForce 6600 NVIDIA GeForce 6600 LE Notebook GPUs NVIDIA GeForce Go 7800 GTX
The issue is most non gaming laptops that are over a year or two older will not support Shader Model 3, I run eve on my laptop for now since my motherboard fried. It would be nice if say high shaders = 3.0 and low = 2.0, then we could use the char creator and in the future walking around in stations.

I'm currently using the 6200 card on my pc (just so I don't get flamed I'll point out I'm on vacation and my normal pc is much better) though as you can see the 6200 card supports sharer model 3.0, leading me to the 10x over repeated conclusion that this is not my pc's fault.

Trying to see if there's any correlation between older 128MB SM3.0 cards (Nvidia 6 & 7 series) and the client hanging with a progress circle when trying to take potraits. Do post confirmation if your card matches the description.

Edited by: Kalya Varr on 21/01/2011 14:08:19 they did change something from SiSI to live, on SiSi i could enter and edit the characters without problems and no crashes, my vid card supports shaders to 4.0, now since they patched SiSi to match the live version it crashes also it has to be software related.
