I've been unable to log in to my character for the past 2 days or so. I can get as far as the character selection screen. After choosing "Enter Game" my screen shows the usual progress bar for entering game "Entering Game as XXXX" then crash to desktop.
Y tried:
-Reinstalled -Clear my settings folder -lowering all graphical and sounds levels -Try to log with another char in other station (far far away)
Finally opened a Ticket... and no word from CCP since... im already losing hours with no training.
Any one with the same problems? |

Heya,
I have started having this issue suddenly today. However turning off "Load Station Environment" fixed it for me.
Once I was ingame I decided to test it further. Ship spinning works but CQ does not load and just crashes the client. In any station, repair did not work and I will not try to reinstall seeing it might not solve anything.
Would love to get some update from CCP about this. "Throw the rules out the window, odds are you'll go that way too." |

It's the same for me. CQ crashes my clients. Did you update Nvidia drivers? Either it's the new patch or it's my drivers. |

Yo,
same problem.
Downgraded my nVidia driver from 295.51 to 290.53, which worked before. Did not help.
Gonna try this "Station Environment" thingy, this evening.
Thx, for that hint. |

Has been happening to me since last Tuesday.

Its not just CQ, it seems to be all of empire. I logged into a character from another location and undocked and still crashed on my PC. I can log into my characters in w-space without crashing.
I reinstalled twice. Downloaded new drivers. Turned all settings down. Nothing can get it to work. |

I have downloaded the latest Beta Drivers from nVidia, I think this was the issue why it started, however rolling back to 285.79 (Beta drivers I was using before because of BF3) did not help. Might be something with the drivers, I am not sure "Throw the rules out the window, odds are you'll go that way too." |

Just reinstalled a 3rd time. I continually try to remove all EVE files from my PC but every time I reinstall it has saved my overview and account info. Very annoying, because I believe there are hidden filed on my PC I can't find. Even when "viewing hidden files".
Still not working. |

I don't think it's because of the nVidia Beta driver.
EVE worked fine with 290.53 (Beta from December 2011). Then I updated to 295.51 (newest Beta) and SISI worked. Did not test TQ. After Crucible 1.1.2 and Client Patch #1 the problems started. Tried SISI, and SISI also did Client Patch #1, but not Crucible 1.1.2 update. So I assume SIS was already running 1.1.2, but without Client Patch #1. In my eyes this Client Patch #1 is to blame.
Anyway, I finally could enter TQ following Joha M'raadu's hint with the "Load Station Environment" setting. I'm now stuck in ships hangar view. Switching to CQ still crashes the EVE Client. The rest works OK for me.

I'm happy to see this is also affecting Windows users.
We've been seeing it on Linux for a while now.
I see this same thing with CQ and if it's not a Linux-specific problem then CCP are likely to give it more attention.

I've been having this issue too. I managed to figure out that it was not only Eve but also other games, this lead me to believe it was a graphics driver, namely the latest beta release from nVidia. Uninstalling this and going back to an earlier version did not work. However uninstalling it, running driver cleaner pro, rebooting, reinstalling and then rebooting again got it all fixed. Also make sure you turn off any anti-virus programs or similiar while doing all of theese operations as it might conflict.
Anyways that solved all of this for me and I'm back ingame, hope this information can be of value to someone. |

You are absolutely right, Skuggo.
I installed Std. VGA driver, uninstalled and deleted all nVidia driver and cleaned the registry, all in Windows Safe Mode. Then I reinstalled nVidia 290.53 Beta. This did solve my problem also.

Same here, do not install the latest nvidia beta drivers.
version 290.53 beta works fine.
This problem will need to be addressed by nvidia i think or maybe a minor fix in EVE to cope with new drivers, but then again, those are just beta drivers so lets blame nVidia XD |

This is indeed CQ that is causing the crashing. my 2nd account is in CQ mode while my main is in hangar mode, main can log in, 2nd account crashes.
Hitting 'Enter CQ' on my main crashes my main.
Turning off 'load station environment' is a temp workaround. After logging in and re-enabling this my 2nd account stayed in hangar mode. |

Same problem here. i/ and GTX570. Updated to the latest beta and eve started crashing when entering the captain's quaters. Everything else works fine.
I tried to revert the changes and reinstalled the latest non-beta driver (had chosen new install) but it didn't help at all. Any ideas (exept to disable CQ ?). |

I had the same issue. I thought it was the driver at first (I installed 295.51), but after uninstalling, rebooting into safe mode, running driver cleaner, rebooting, and reinstalling 290.53 (which worked just fine in the past) it still crashed. Turning off "load station environment" worked, and I am now sitting in the ship hangar until this bug is fixed.
The crash only occurs in the CQ. If I try to enter the captain's quarters, the crash occurs again.
I'll be sure to file a bug report. |

Hi,
I had the same issue after I "updated" my Nvidia drivers (295.51). The solution has been given by Skuggo, couple of posts up. But it was a bit difficult to understand at once.
Anyway, I will explain how I fixed this driver issue (and yes, I also made a petition about it.)
1) Uninstall Nvidia 295.51 drivers 2) Reboot 3) Drive cleaner, just use the software you like the best (but it needs to remove the nvidia reg keys thats still left in the system) I used "Driver Cleaner Pro" 4) Reboot 5) Install last WHQL driver package (october 2011) 6) Reboot
Now CQ will work.
Open the game (dont log in) press settings and enable load station environment. Then press apply, and log in as usual.
However, if you are like me, you want to be updated as you can be on the driver front.
Well, now you can safely update to the beta driver that was release BEFORE 295.51. That package still works fine, and CQ runs on it. And you don't need to reboot after the last update.
Hope someone can use this, and load CQ again.
Regards, Kai

Didn't work for me. Still crashes trying to enter the CQ. (I used Driver Cleaner .net if that makes any difference.) |

Terazul,
Try with Driver Cleaner Pro. See if that helps. Might be that the other one does not work due to reg keys not being removed.

Tried Kai recommendation did not work. I reverted back to the last offical NVIDIA driver to see if its driver related and my CQ will not load and my client keeps crashing.
I will say I dont use the CQ much so I am unsure when this issue popped up but ya... im borked. |

I tried both driver cleaners. Still doesn't work.
I'm pretty sure I scoured my system of all Nvidia-related materials. Not sure why it would work for you and not me... |

What I did is that I simply unistalled the driver by "Your unistaller 2011 Pro" along with the nVidia update and PhysX (it cleans the registry as well). Then reinstalled the 285.79 driver I was using earlier, choosing a "Clean Install" and then restarted my PC.
The thing is,when you only downgrade your drivers, you have no option for PhysX so that will leave the current (295.51) version in. However when I unistalled it one by one manually and reverted back to older drivers, it has solved my issues.
I wonder if the PhysX driver has been kinda screwed up by the latest beta from nVidia. "Throw the rules out the window, odds are you'll go that way too." |

Aha! That was it!
I've narrowed it down to the PhysX driver. Uninstalling it and rolling back to an earlier version fixed the crash.
So for anyone who still has this problem, there's your answer. |

Sorry for the late reply.
The PhysX Beta Driver is indeed the issue, we have made NVIDIA aware of it and the problem is already fixed internally and on test servers. Unfortunately I cant give you a proper release date yet but the next patch will include the fix.
If you are experiencing this issue it is advised to deactivate Station Environments until the next patch. CCP Sputnik | Software Engineer |

Or just simply following what I did and enjoy a CQ until then :).
Thanks for the heads up though! Good to see it is confirmed.

we have found the issue (with the help from Nvidia) and it is because of the beta driver from Nvidia. we have a fix for the issue that is ready and waiting in the staging branch and i'm hoping to get deployed next week. i can't confirm 100% that it will be released next week, but i'm 99.9% sure we will get it out 1 way or another.
of course the work around is to remove the beta driver and install the officially released driver from Nvidia, but where's the fun in that right ? :)
hopefully i will get you more info on Monday.
( in a moment of laziness i'm going to copy this response into the other thread about the issue). |

<3 CCP Devs :P
Aaaanyways, the 290 Beta driver runs fine, so we might as well stick to it while you guys deploy the fix :P Aaand of course there is no fun when using WHQL drivers. "Throw the rules out the window, odds are you'll go that way too." |
