Ye before Trinity I could actually play this game at lowest settings. Now it's not even fun playing. Playing classic and lowered everything I can to minimum but still no. Just payed for the game again was so happy for my return... Now I have to wait till the 26th to order computer components so I can play this... Fun paying for a game I can't even play atleast I can get some skilltraining done... :/ Somebody set up us the bomb |

Jesus, what have you done to your system? The fact that it even has a Core 2 Duo means it is significantly more powerful than mine, and yet I can dual-client with premium graphics with perfectly playable FPS. -

Weird, I've got two premium clients running at 1920x1200, aa/af forced on, extreme memory cache, and they're both running okay.
Are you running out of memory, or do you have shadows above normal? Also, what kind of video card do you have?

How do you dual client with premium? I have dual core, 2gb ram, 2x512mb n7950 cards in SLi and eve runs great fullscreen but the moment I switch to windowed mode for some reason my fps turns horrid. Like from 150fps -> 10fps. And I'd really like to use my alt in cov ops to explore/scout for my main. ---------------------------------

I have 2gigs of ram thank you very much, a geforce 7900gs with 256megs of video ram.
Settings exactly the way they were before patch, 1920x1200.
Premium i get about 10 more fps than classic, and i can not run 2 clients with either.

So do you get crappy fps if you window a client too? It could be just one client running, windowed mode takes a poo on my FPS's face, ties a burlap bag around it's head for extra stinkiness, and kicks it in the balls for good measure... ---------------------------------

Snake I also have a 7900GS and 2GB RAM. This card doesnt have that much power. It's really good for the money though. Run it on 1280x1024 and it'll be sweet. Your res is way too high for the card. Not a processor issue here, for sure.

I'll add my input to this thread too. I get great FPS at 1440x900, Shadows on high, HRD/Bloom on high...extremely playable. But I've noticed if I put the shadows on extreme its extremely unplayable...like 5 fps. My system is as follows:
2.13 ghz Core 2 Duo 2 gigs of RAM 8600 GTS Vista
I just wish, oh I wish, that CCP made AA and HDR doable at the same time. I hate running with with no AA...jaggies EVERWHERE and it makes the new visuals not look so good. But on the other hand I love the new HDR/Bloom so I'm definately leaving that on.

I kinda started it, but I was asking help for windowed mode. Let me clarify my problem, if I only run ONE INSTANCE of eve.exe, one client, in fullscreen I get ~150fps. If I window that client without starting up a 2nd, my fps still drops to ~15fps no matter the settings in premium options. ---------------------------------

There's another thread where someone mentioned nHanser, an nVidia settings tweaker. Find that thread and there are instructions and screenshots for how to get AA and HDR at the same time.
Is anyone else getting better framerate OUTSIDE the station? I'm getting about 25-30 fps in station and 40-50 outside.

I currently run a two monitor setup. When I run Eve in windowed mode, two clients, one on each screen, I get 40 or so FPS on each screen in space. However, I have to make sure that the clients are each conpletely on their own monitor, such that the edge of the client running on the left monitor isn't being displayed on the right monitor, which is what happens with the default window placement.
Having this kind of overlap cuts me down to 12-15 fps.
So, uh, make sure that isn't happening.

Like I said, I could just run ONE client, and window it, and it cuts me down to 15fps. No sceond client running at all. Thx for the tip tho. ---------------------------------

Forgive me, in the future I will simply say nanny nanny boo boo and make funny faces. I wasn't trying to threaten anyone's e-ego, just trying to point out that neither the client itself , nor my normal background applications appear to be slowing down my Eve performance.
Is it magic? No, I have current drivers and a working knowledge of most of the hardware in my own PC, but have no idea the status of the OP's OS, drivers, BIOS or other contributing factors.
In short, give a man fire he is warm for a night, set a man on fire, you keep him warm for the rest of his life.

Snakey, I think the point the more enlightened posters here are making is that with that same equipment most everyone is getting outstanding performance.
I would suggest looking at your settings and see if one of the modifications you have made is not agreeing with Trinity... although you alluded that EVE wasn't performing very well for you even before Trinity.
I doubt its the overclocking you have done, but it is a possibility. I'd more likely suspect your Anti-aliasing settings perhaps not getting along well with the Trinity engine. Play with it a bit, I think you'll probably find settings that will work much better than what you are currently experiencing.
No epeening here, just trying to be helpful.

I run Eve on a 3.0 GHz Xeon 5160 Dual Core with 3 GB of memory running WinXP Pro. Until Trinity I had been running up to seven Eve windows using a graphics card with NVIDIA PX7600 GT chipset and 256 MB. Since Trinity I am lucky to be able to run two Eve windows, maybe three when set to "classic" graphics. The PC semi-locks with an hourglass mouse pointer, total freeze for about 8 seconds out of every 10, and complete inability to select any window, click any button, or even bring up Task Manager. The only way out is to force power down the machine. I just went out and bought a $300 8800 GT graphics card with 512 MB. If that doesn't solve the problem and/or CCP doesn't make the new client more PC-friendly in coming weeks I will have little incentive to continue with Eve.

I have an Athlon64 3500+, 1GB of RAM and a GeForce7900GT. Trinity runs just fine for me at 1680x1050. Premium content on, shadows are on high, HDR on, bloom high, cache size normal.
Haven't directly tested the FPS but it's certainly around 30 at least. And ugh to those who whine about it, 20ish FPS is totally playable.

Interesting. I got P4 3.06 Ghz, 1 GB RAM, 7600GT, clients run at 1280x1024. FPS with 1 client: 5-10. That's with HDR and trinity stuff disabled!
Before patch: 40+ FPS.
Which driver version do you use with your GFX board?

Ok, I have just about the same system currently: P4 2.8 HT, 4gb, 6800 GT. I'm getting 60-70fps in station and 40-50fps in space (with a few peaks). This is in windowed mode btw, I'm sure fullscreen would be better. Shadows are set to High, cache is set to Extreme, and HDR is off.
Two suggestions: a) get more RAM, I was at 2gb and EVE got poky even before Trinity with the 4gb I have now it's not an issue; b) turn off the widescreen mode, in fact I'd suggest you lowering your resolution since 1600x1200 is really pushing it, I'm running at 1280x800 (windowed) and the graphics are snappy. What was really odd is that widescreen option, it was doing all kinds of weird stuff and messing up the graphics (overlays were not syncing) so I'd turn that mode off if you have it on.
Hope that helps.
Peace.

Me too but only got an old 6600LE and it can't really run, perhaps 10-15fps and that's in unpopulated scenes in a quiet system. There are some weird glitches, I got the instation fps lower than the outstation one too, and the rclick menu on my ship not showing up. And my 'default' setting in overview now displays Veldspar. Classic runs fine as far as I can tell though

Edited by: Cpt Branko on 07/12/2007 09:12:48 I don't know. My machine runs premium graphics content (with HDR off) very smoothly using a old X1550-based gfx. Everything is fine, basically, and graphics are much better.
Still using a 3.2Ghz P4 machine (one of the latest P4s, though), so I don't get anyone having problems on a core-due unless their system is clogged up by tons of unecessary junk or something.
And people who need three EvE clients running at the same time are really meh.

Fun paying for a game I can't even play atleast I can get some skilltraining done... :/
Well, I don't know what your system is like, but I can promise you that it's not CCP screwing up. My laptop is 2.5 years old - only 1.8ghz and an X300 card - and it can run the new classic engine at resolutions far superior to what used to be possible (in particular, 1280x800 -> 1680x1050, with 1920x1200 being perfectly playable when away from particularly busy scenes).

I haven't tried windowed mode, but it wouldn't surprise me that it's slower. A lot of games have lower FPS in windowed mode for whatever reason (WoW for example).

Thought I might as well add, being a nooblins.
My PC is ****. Plainly, totally ****. If I run anything in the first 30mins of startup, it crashes because the monitor/graphics card needs to warm up.
It can BARELY run Eve, and if anything, my performance has gone up since pre-patch, I did not download the new graphics.
This computer was made in 1998 and has had one up upgrade. Its got a larger hard drive.
Btw, if I open the CDRW drive, it will crash the computer

See if you have two display adapters listed on the Eve graphics option tab. Might be named exactly the same, but try switching to the "other one" for S&Gs.
Unlikely, but worth a shot.

Which kinda indicates the problem is with your rig, not eve. The usual fixes of defrag, latest versions of mainboard & video drivers, or format C:\ should boost your comps performance. --------------------------------- There's a simple solution to every problem. It is always invariably wrong |

I have the drop in framerate on the second client that runs on a second monitor. Normally prepatch I had the second client set to the second graphics card in the settings. But since trinity all the settings for all clients seem to be connected. I cannot change the resolution or graphics card affinity for one only and have it stick. If I try to go into the second client and change it to the other graphics card output the client graphically bugs out after pressing apply. Thoughts on how to make the settings stick seperately for clients? |

Windowed @ 1440 x 900 with the same settings I get approx. 40 FPS docked and 20-30 FPS in space.
With more than one client, performance drops to 15-20 FPS per client and usually results in a complete system lockup.

Combine that with boot.ini blunder, needles nerfing of drones, carriers, torps, module volume.
Yeah i've canceled my sub, and no you cant have my stuff, it'd perfer someone with a clue get it.
Oh lawd, get over yourself already...
there has been no nerfing to drones, and no nerfing to the carriers nor i would say torps, they got a buff.

More like an ID-10-T failure... I run the upgraded graphics on two clients in windowed 1680x1050 without too much grief. Average FPS is around 20, which is more than enough for PvE, and when PvP calls, I drop the industrial/mining alt, and go full windowed for 30+. I have shadows and bloom off with both using large caches.
My worst headaches are when I run two clients, iTunes, and MSIE (with EVERY security feature running at the most draconian level) simultaneously. Then I get some freezing and the occassional crash to restart when my cable modem decides to flip me the bird.
This is a single core, 2.93GHz processor with PC2700 RAM (2.25GB) and a 512MB Radeon x1600Pro. Its nice, but its not some of these newer hotrods on the net, but it does the job better than some pretty spectacular machines I'm reading about. Some of the issues I'm seeing in the better machines sounds like a user who thinks a powerful machine is going to compensate for his incompetent handling of its resource management.
The bottom line is, you can stick and idiot in a Ferrari, but it ain't going nowhere fast if the idiot can't drive it properly.

haha
I am currently using a prebuilt system with 1gig ram, low spec P4 cpu, 6200 LE gfx card...
30~80 fps average is probably around 40~50 using classic client.
Playable for me, new classic client is actually performing a bit better than it used too

I'm only using a 3800 X2 and it's perfectly playable on all 3 clients at once, not sure what your issue is.
