I have experienced client crashes after patch as well. The client was rock stable for me before the patch.

Does a crash dump get generated when this occurs? If so, can you please file a bugreport and attach it.
If one is not generated, can you please paste the error message here. (you can copy the content of a windows popup dialogue simply by hitting ctrl+c).
Where would this crash dump file be located? I'll remember to make a screenie/copy of the error message next time.

The client is broken after the patch for me. Multiple C++ crashes is not fun. CCP please fix this or at least acknowledge there is a problem and that you are looking into it

C++ crashes still happening - sometimes so frequent I can barely manage to change a skill. AND THIS ALL STARTED AFTER THE LAST PATCH. CLIENT WAS ROCK STABLE BEFORE.

Thanks for posting this! Why CCP don't post this in a sticky I have no idea. Don't they even want proper bug reports??
And as for reproducing; this is impossible for me. Client crashes at totally random situations, in station, in warp, browsing market etc.

I might be banned from the game for revealing here the CCP's answers to my petitions?
Hey dude, just remove the GM's name and let the other stuff stay. I can't believe CCP would ban someone for posting useful solutions for others to see....

posted in the other thread to check if packet loss is the reason for crashes:
Quote:
If you have a router with a firewall or a software firewall make sure it allows all traffic through port 26000 for both UDP and TCP protocols. You can read through the following article to see if it has information that can help solve this problem, http://kb.eve-online.com/Pages/KB/Article.aspx?id=119
You can test your connection to our server by doing the following, if you encounter problems you can send us the results.
To see whether you can get reach our servers or not, please do the following:
1. Press "Start" and select run. Write 'cmd' and press
2. Write 'telnet 87.237.38.200 26000' and wait for the process to finish.
If the Command Prompt gives you an error and fails, you are most likely running a firewall of some sort which is blocking the traffic from your computer to our servers. You will need to fix that. However, if the window generates some scrambled letters, you are successfully contacting the servers and you'll need to make a pingplotter test with further connection info.
Here's how to do so:
Download a program called pingplotter which is available here www.pingplotter.com. If you are running a hardware firewall (SPI Firewall) on your router you will need to disable it, as otherwise this program won't work. Run ping plotter and set it to trace to 87.237.38.200, this being the EVE server, then set it to run at 1 minute intervals for 60 runs and statistics to include these 60 intervals. After that then try to login to the EVE server with the program running in the background. If your connection drops while running the pingplotter program then check if you get any packet loss or unusually high ping times at any node along the way. Save the results as a pp2 file or take a screenshot and send it to us.

it looks like the channels (constant chatter there) keeps the connection alive. can anyone confirm the above works for you?
This does NOT work for me. I have 3-4 channels with constant chatter and still get crashes.

After running Pingplotter constantly in the background I can't see that the quality of my connection has anything to do with the crashes/disconnects. No packet loss at the time of the disconnect, and I set pingplotter to poll every 15s.
