We'll investigate this. Don't worry - you're not missing out on any features running on DX9 - this is exactly why we wanted to release purely an engine update first, before adding DX11 specific features. |

Can you guys please verify for me what dx version the client actually runs on?
If you hit Ctrl-F to bring up the FPS meter, it'll show it in the upper left corner. |

Try running DirectXRedist.exe from the EVE\bin folder - we're investigating whether our check for whether this needs to be run or not may be incomplete.
Please post your results, if this helps at all. |

Game runs perfectly fine with dx9.
I really wish they would stop with the engine upgrades so my broke ass doesn't get phased out.
But engine upgrades are so much fun!
Don't worry, we'll keep the DX9 version around for a while. |

I am not one of these people, I have a 6970 crossfire setup and everything is sweet for me, just trying to help others.. They sound a little frustrated..
To get around the launcher issues at least.
Create a shortcut pointing to bin/ExeFile.exe, add /triPlatform=dx9 /noconsole to the command line. |

Sure, just put dx11 instead of dx9 on the command line. Clever, right?

Of course it's not really needed - dx11 is the default. If dx11 is not supported for any reason it will still fall back to dx9. |

Of course it's not really needed - dx11 is the default. If dx11 is not supported for any reason it will still fall back to dx9. I have a Geforce 8800GT card which only supports Directx10 running under Windows 7 64 bit. The Eve launcher reports that I can only run Directx9 but the Eve client will not run and complains that there is a problem with driver D3DX10_42.DLL. I have tried reinstalling Directx from Microsoft and using the Eve supplied drivers neither allow me to run Eve. I have also tried to force Directx9 by using the command line you provided but Eve so will not run. This appears to be an issue with the code in the Eve client which controls the Directx version not recognising cards that support Directx10. I am currently able to play Eve so am not a happy bunny!!!! Thanks
What exactly do you mean with 'complains that there is a problem with driver D3DX10_42.DLL'? Do you get a dialog with an error message? What is the exact message?
You could try running DirectXRedist.exe from the EVE/bin folder. This should be run by the launcher if needed, but it's worth trying. |

Interesting - I'll need to investigate a couple of things. May have some more questions tomorrow... |

Yes, sorry, we're juggling quite a few issues. My colleague looked into this, and we can't figure out what is going wrong. It seems as if something has gone wrong with your DirectX installation, although I'm not sure how that could happen as you were running fine before. Do other games run without issues?
I suggest you try running the DirectX installer from here: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/179113, or the end-user runtime web installer: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=35.
Let me know if this solves any issues - if not, we'll have to take another look. |

DirectX Version: DirectX 11

User DPI Setting: Using System DPI
System DPI Setting: 96 DPI (100 percent)
DWM DPI Scaling: Disabled
DxDiag Version: 6.01.7601.17514 32bit Unicode
Could you try running DirectXRedist.exe from the EVE/bin folder? Does that change anything? |

Simon,
I need to see some logs. See https://wiki.eveonline.com/en/wiki/Bug_reporting, run with the log server.
Create a shortcut pointing to bin/ExeFile.exe, add /triPlatform=dx9 /noconsole to the command line. Start up the log server first, then run EVE with this shortcut.
File a bug report, put my name in the title so it gets routed to me directly, attach the logs. We'll figure this out. |

I made the shortcut but I am not sure where to add the new part. When I try to add anything it tells me invalid and doesn't let me change anything. I don't know enough about programming.
Use forward slashes, not backward slashes. Add this to the command line where executable is specified. |
