Here's the deal.. Whenever I do a Show Info on a players name.. i HAVE to download the players mug-shot. This means if I want to check a players standing, i HAVE to download his mug-shot.. If I want to see what corporation a player is in, i HAVE to download his mug-shot. If I want to see what ship a player is flying far in the distance, i HAVE to download his mug-shot.
In the options I have it set to "Never Generate Picture"... So I ask you.. Why the hell is it downloading these mug-shots?
The Mug-Shot images, each one, takes like 350k of harddrive space.. This means I have to download 350k every time I want to find out more about a player. And downloading this 350k image makes the game freeze for 5 seconds or more. So I am basically non-responsive for at least 5 seconds every time I do a Show Info on a player.
Now I've already heard it all.. Some players say they do not have this problem.. They say they click on Show Info and it will show the players info, but it keeps the mug-shot blank unless they click on it to download.
Others say they have the same problem as me, except these poor souls claim that the game not only downloads the mug-shot, it also crashes the game.. So these people can never do a Show Info on another player ever.
Could you please fix this crap.. I can not view info on any players and it drives me crazy.

In the 'Graphics' dialog pane there's an option called:
'Never Generate Picture'
under the section called 'Character Pictures'
Shouldn't this already not display the user pictures???

Edited by: Claus on 10/09/2003 09:10:39 Considering machines with the ATI Mobility 7500 Radeon graphics card sometimes BSODs when loading a mugshot (which then corrupts the cache), it would be great if they would fix this. As it is I never do a Show Info on a player. ------------- You have to go out of your mind from time to time to stay sane. |

I have it set to never generate picture, and it always generates the picture. Has been like this all through beta.
A fix would be nice.

Yes.. This is a big flaw in the software. A fix, bump, or resolution is very much needed.
NOTE: I did report this in Beta7 AND 2 weeks after release.
