Hawk Firestorm	Posted - 2004.08.20 11:01:00 - [31] This problem relates to Nvidia cards with DX9c drivers and DX9c. I can't comment on ATI cards etc.

SEALen	Posted - 2004.08.21 13:22:00 - [33] Wonder why you get any problems updating to 9.0c at all. If I remeber corectly how directx works it souldn't affect anything since directx 9.0c should contain all that 9.0b does. So if you run an old dx5 game it should still work since dx5 is still part of dx9. Correct me if I'm wrong, it was a while since I did any dx programing.

Lain Maraquine	Posted - 2004.09.01 00:49:00 - [35] A lot of people had this bug with newer Nvidia drivers. When I upgraded mine from 56.64 (or something like that) I got exactly this problem. That was with DirectX 9b. I downgraded my Nvidia drivers and all was well again. Try going back to your previous graphics drivers and keeping the DX9c. Let us know how that goes.

GOD050	Posted - 2004.09.01 02:48:00 - [37] Athlon XP3200, ABIT AN7, Radeon 9800XT... Windows XP Pro SP2, Catalyst 4.8, DirectX 9c.... Absolutely no wucken furries here (/me expects Aussie terminology to be edited out) That leaves a couple of things... it's either YOUR hardware, YOUR setup, or YOUR drivers. Oh btw, 9800XT is running flat maggot as well, 6xAA and 16xAS... still no worries, and with "advancedDevice=1" its going even harder with 2x Multisampling... and still getting minimum 39fps. Id suggest people stop moaning about the EVE devs and either upgrade/set up their systems properly or moan to their manufacturers. I've noticed ATi have started looking after their older cards in the latest (was either 4.7 or 4.8) Catalyst patch notes. Of course you cant run EVE on a 286 with a 4mb graphics card.

Krendig	Posted - 2004.09.01 04:26:00 - [39] It seems to affect people with GF4 cards and the newest Nvidia drivers + DX 9.0c. I'm running XP, DX 9.0c, and 61.77 drivers, with no problems. I've got a GF FX5200. Take a look at this Knowledgebase article. --Krendig

Darkwolf	Posted - 2004.09.01 04:51:00 - [41] Originally by: SEALen So if you run an old dx5 game it should still work since dx5 is still part of dx9. This is Microsoft we're talking about. You remember, the Antichrist of Compatibility. (I haven't upgraded to SP2, and won't be, not for a while yet, not until I stop hearing horror stories).

Drilla	Posted - 2004.09.17 20:52:00 - [43] After upgrading this XP to SP2 my EVE was broken. Setting compatablility to Win98 solved the problem Athlon64 2800+ 1GB DDR ATI Radeon 9800 Pro Catalyst 4.8 Omega version (tried 4.9 also) yarr - * pure moinage *

I can say that for a fact. The way I solved it was uninstalling my drivers then booting into safe mode and running the CAB Cleaner (make sure you do this first)/Driver Cleaner from http://www.driverheaven.net/cleaner/ Then I reinstalled the old 53.03 drivers and eve now loads without the need for win98 compat mode. I use an old GeForce2 mx400 on a crap P3 933Mhz I slipstreamed SP2 with the Auto Streamer program from http://www.autopatcher.com/autostreamer.html 2004.12.11 03:07:32notifyThe Serpentis Mercenary is too far away, you need to be within 54625 meters of it but are actually 13193590680251 meters away.

Athule Snanm	Posted - 2004.09.24 08:50:00 - [49] Originally by: Digiball Try running EVE in windows 98 compatibility mode (right-click on the EVE shortcut and select the "compatibility" tab). That fixed my problem with XP SP2 and my ATI drivers. This is also how I fixed my SP2 EVE problems - may be worth a try even if you don't have an ATI card. _______________________________ Doomheim - EVE's only hygiene!
