yes, my clients are windowed mode which i usually play on full screen (window maximized). i use this option to be able to use the internet browser or being alt tabbed on something else. here is a printscreen of my setup.
please note i get the same behavior at my home computer and my office computer. they both have different video cards (one ATI and one AMD) which i discard it being a video driver issue.
Here is the in game graphic configuration : http://i.imgur.com/t1JSGUj.png
Here is my preview windows setup : http://i.imgur.com/gi240dK.png
EVE-O Config: http://i.imgur.com/fsaSwFn.png
And last one, 1 active window and 2 previews : http://i.imgur.com/z5fREJM.png
I really love the program, but having no animation on the preview windows is a downer for me :(. Anyone else having the same issue?
Edit: on the graphic configuration in game, ive tried to use the lowest, mid and highest config and i get the same results. |

Zekora Rally as a answer to you too once i have all clients running and eve-o thumbnails messed up i restart it and it seems to run as it should, untill something upsets it and one or two thubnails start acting up. then again restart eve.o and it works ok.
Jaantrag, i just closed everything (even the launcher).....Opened EVE-O, then i opened the EVE launcher, proceeded to open up my 3 clients and i still gets my non-animated preview windows. |

yeah, its only the EVE-O preview that is not animated. if i go to my taskbar preview and mouse over my clients, i get the animation there and any other progam. Both my computers have Windows 8.1. i will try and install Windows 10 (which i hate) in a different hard drive and try it out. |

so, i locked down the problem. here are my findings.
I installed Windows 10 to test it out on a different platform since i have the same operating system on both my computer (home and office). Once i got everything up and running on W10, i got the latest EVE-O version and started testing previews, etc. To my surprise i was able to configure my 3 clients and now im getting animation on my previews (HURRAY).
here is a screen:

The troubleshooting: After i saw how it works in W10 I noticed a wrong behavior on my W8.1 installation, ill try to explain as detailed as possible:
- On windows 10, the way i get animation on my previews is if my other windows are maximized on the background on the main monitor which is the correct behavior. On the EVE-O window, when i have my 3 clientes maximized i get the previews showing up with my character name on it. http://i.imgur.com/xy8b40T.png
- On Windows 8.1, if i do the Same, have my 3 clients running and maximized on the background, the EVE-O doesnt detect my clients running unless i minimize them to the taskbar and thats where i had the problem in which i though, for the preview to work correcty, that my clients had to be minimized in order to show animation. Heres is a Pic with my clients Maximized on Windows 8.1 http://i.imgur.com/KonpP7N.png (it doesnt show anything). Here is another pic with all my 3 clients minimized http://i.imgur.com/Fp3TcNb.png . Please notice how ther last one i minimized has 3 dots as a name (...). I tried with other versions and its the same behavior.
I wanted to share this info with you guys just to give you an idea of my troubleshooting. On my side, ill just fix it by Upgrading my OS to windows 10 since i love the program.
Let me know if you got any further questions.

hahahahahahahahaha......jesuschrist. This is funny.....Makari Aeron you are a genious....So, that double arrowed is from TeamViewer QuickConnect. Its an addin from Teamviewer to share the window you are using for remote support. I have TeamViewer for work purpose on both my computer http://i.imgur.com/CWqEg44.png . So, i went and disabled the Pugin and Voila, its working like it does on W10.
On W10 it didnt behave like that because i went straight to EVE installation with the fresh OS.
good stuff hehehe....thanks for pointing it out, to be honest i wouldnt have noticed it. |

What I recommend doing is deleting your XML settings files and only starting EVE O Preview AFTER you've logged in all your characters. I've been trying to pin down what is different, but it's something M$ changed since the November update (aka Win10 SP1), but I have exceptionally limited time to do any development (see post above yours). Thanks for the reply. Whereabouts are the xml settings files located?
Its usually where the EVE-O exe file is located. i Wondered this myself, i usually ran the program from my desktop and it scatered the config files all over it. What i did was to create a folder and put the exe file in it. inmediately after you launch it it will create the files to save your local configs.
hope this helps. |
