Rendering problem encountered right after upgrading my video driver :/ Note that not all of this station is rendered.
Changed inline image to link.

Edited by: Knefru Khamen on 21/03/2004 19:41:22 Same problem here; it only seems to affect Minmatar stations. I also note that billboards have no screen at all. However, the jaggy effect on Ammar stations seems to be reduced. ---

I thought that's what these stations looked like! ;-) Reminded me of Disney's 'The Black Hole' kind of ghostly. Then after reading this I remembered I'd just upgraded the Nvidia drivers for BFV... The billboards are transparent apart from a scolling banner at the base of the screens saying 'This space for rent'!? (on some) Is this an EVE marketing idea. Also since the last patch I'm getting a lot of exception popups everytime I get near a billboard. The error was refering to a billboard file. Seemed to indicate the file had moved directories. So I copied the named file from another directory to the one it was refering to. The exceptions stopped. The boards are still only showing the banners though.

Thank you for bringing this to our attention.
The only thing I can recommend is to try to rollback to your previous drivers if possible. We all must wait for nVidia to come out with new version of their driver it seems for this to be resolved. --------------------------------------------------

Yeah, have done, for all those who are currently using Nvidia GPU's (cuz they rock ) Detonator 53.03 ( last official WHQL release ) works perfectly.
And thanks for replying

Edited by: Commander Stringer on 29/03/2004 18:07:26 ok the Gainward 56.55 release is also as bad, in stations this driver set causes avatar corruptions, either the backgrounds are missing or the avatar itself is not rendered correctly. I think this is going to be a common issue with the 56.xx series of detonators. But i don't think this is specific to the driver, i'm pretty sure there are flaws within Eve's 3D engine ( 53.03 + Mim stargates with 'rolling' texture effects ) A post by ISD earlier in this thread said we have to wait for Nvidia to fix their drivers. I disagree, CCP should concentrate more on gettin the engine rendering properly aka aforementioned Mim gate texture probs and the flickering textures on Ammar stations. And as ISD are not the Dev's I think that comment wasn't nessessary

NVIDIA has been made aware of the issue and they are looking into it as they are able.
1) Missing Billboard gtraphic 2) Missing station textures 3) Pulsing light from suns 4) Sun occlusion issues

Oh boi, kroovy 
One thing though - I get REALLY ugly flickering and wobbling when running two clients at the same time. It's really unbearable, and headache-inducing. Started happening with 56.64 (and still happens with the newly released 56.72).
Ciao, Aronis!

I wont say (rhymes with hiss) cos you obviously have taken offense but that grammar***** up in the last post wasn't my fault they chopped the next word out. In all fairness lets hope nvidia get their act together in the next batch of video cards out later in the year, but I remember when the fx cards were due they were supposed to be the answer to all our prayers then. Months on and my dad who owns one and plays the game cant see our beloved minmatar stations in all their glory. He thought thats how they were suppose to look too

I have the same problem.
When I installed the game I was using 53.03 and everything worked great. Well I updated to the latest drivers, had the transparent billboards, ghostly stations, etc..
I read about the problem in the forums and that it was related to the latest drivers, so I rolled back to 53.03. This only half fixed it. Originally after the update I had transparent billboards with greenbars across the bottom scrolling "this space for rent" then after rolling back, I see the anti booster ads and some odd blueish face (someone took a pic of it will have to dig that up) and also the same green bar scrolling the "This space for rent" message, always the same screens, never any wanted posters, etc..
So I guess I will wipe all nvidia drivers from my stsems, and let windows default back to its own drivers, clean it all up, and re-install 53.03 from scratch as I know they worked perfectly when i first installed EVE.

I have noticed this problem to, but didn't think it was a major problem until i discovered that it effect portrait generation aswell. I make the sigs for our corp members and they dont fancy pics of their avatars that got eyes missing etc. Its a mystery that its only some graphix that is missing. Xerxes

Same problems as well.
Just a question to the devs. How are the textures used on the missing objects different from those used on every thing else? Are they animated textures or something?
Is it possible to insert alterntaive textures into the next patch (with a "nvidia compliance" toogle under the graphics settings to fix this?
I can live with the sun effects, but it would be nice to see the stations in thier glory, the billboards (even if it ends up being a static image), and not having the jump gate textures all strippy.

Edited by: Gun Kata on 07/05/2004 12:39:20 I bought Battlefield Vietnam which does not support the older drivers so I have to update. When I update I am getting what most people are getting here, especially when running two clients windowed.
Any news from nvidia?

i have an amazing problem with nivada drivers
i can install the latest ones and have the game run find apart from missing billboards
but when i enable my tv output and then disable ot when im done watching dvds, it wont render eve without fuzzy 3d holes in it and with it locking up within 10 seconds, i cant even roll back or reinstall i have to do a system restore to before i installed the drivers
but yet if i never enable my tv out, ever, it works fine... __________________________________________________

Eve has issues with cards that have multi-monitor support, it was supposedly fixed in the last patch.
As for an update on the driver issues all 56.xx, 60.xx and 61.xx revisions cause rendering problems with Eve. Shame really as the 61.11 detonators are really quite quick performers.
C'mon Devs, when are we going to have a resolutions to this problem?

Omega drivers fix the billboard graphics, and look simply stunning I might add, they are just out and based on the 53.03 drivers. www.omegacorner.com
I'm currently using the 61.11 nvidia drivers, they look almost as good as the omegas, and offer improved FSAA performance on my card, so I use them, but billboards don't work. www.guru3d.com for those
Note that my results are for the FX5700ultra in winxp running 4x aa, 8x af, 1200x1600 res. you will also need to use 'advancedDevice=1' and adjust stuff there to get rid of station glitches...

My vid card is a eVGA FX 5900 SE (xt series chipset), and I use the latest driver on their website, which is 56.56, as opposed to the 56.64 on nvidia's site.
Ive used 53.04 and not had the problem, but a couple games I have nag at me that my drivers are not 'up to date'.

I like how Minmatar stations just look like collections of murky lines and small groupings of green fire.
That's my favorite graphical effect. Or how the sun cuts through everything, even planets. Or how pieces of most minmatar ships disappear from view for some reason, or just flicker in an out of existance...
But, I read the posts before this, so I know the deal, just expressing my frustratons. I've played Eve on a friend's computer... it's just SO much prettier there than on my PC, no fair... :(

Right, I'm bumping this as it seems that more and more people are posting problems related to the latest Nvidia driver releases. CCP was quoted as saying this problem has been passed to Nvidia for clarification/rectification but i have tested every single release i can get my hands on right up to 61.72. I cannot...no refuse to believe that if Nvidia has been made aware of the issue that it has not been fixed in the 10 or so releases Beta or otherwise since the 53.03 release which we know to work (for those running Win2K/XP)
So, i'm going to bump this post continually until we have an answer. If this post gets deleted then are we to assume that CCP has washed their hands of the problem?
