Your playing in window mode, try fullscreen.
Why would i do that, playing fullscreen means i can't properly interact with my dual clients and all the other applications i use i have no gain from fullscreen.
Fullscreen increases performance drmatically, direct X dont have to ahdnle context switch on owner of the frame buffer, so less SO calls , less load on drivers. Much better performance.

On the new videocards you won't see any significant difference performance-wise between fullscreen and windowed mode.
5 fps drop when you have over hundred fps doesn't matter at all.
P.S. Back on topic for nVidia cards you can add any custom resolution in your videocard settings. Im personally using widescreen "20 with 1680x1050 screen, but since I only play in a windowed mode I've added 1680x1000 resolution in order to be able to see the taskbar.

I don't know what it is but the "non standard" resolutions for me have vanished many months ago, including 1152 x 864. I am running EVGA 8800 GTS 640MB (now 2 in SLI).
In any event, sure enough I updated the patch and it borked all my settings.
What I found is to change the desktop resolution to 1152 x 864, launch EVE and then that option appears. Select it and exit EVE. Change desktop back to 1280x1024 and then launch eve. Now when I open the display tab it says 1024x768, but it's clearly sized at 1152x864.
I use this "oddball" resolution because it feels like the optimal window size for a 1280x1024 monitor when running 2 copies of EVE in window mode.

For people missing resolutions running windowed on a TFT, check to se what your refresh rate is set to. once I changed mine to 60Hz from 59Hz, all my windowed settings came back :)

Um, have 1152x864 ?
Note the version in the top left = trinity 1.1
It reads this from your windows settings, if you don't have it listed as an option to set your windows desktop to, Eve will not see it. Mine had it there by default.

My windows setting does have 1152 x 864, and I use it as the default. Still not showing up in EVE, though.

For the 100th time (for all those who just skip to last page), 1152x864 is available in WINDOWED MODE, not FULLSCREEN.
You can do anything you want, add it as a custom resolution to your display list, set your desktop to it by default, WHATEVER, and it will not be present in EVE-O, unless CCP decides to add it back into the list.
If you want to help those of us who can't play now, please sign the petition, but don't tell us that the resolutions are available.

This is great since came home today after the hotpatch and now I cannot run any setting in fullscreen with Premium Graphics. Classic mode works ok. Only nto sure how to change back to classic mode. Premium Graphics crashÆs in full screen before the logging page.

hi,
is there a way to play EVE in Window-Mode (maximized with no Borders) ... I hate fullscreen because I have two Screens and Window-Mode makes it easy to switch into the browser an back again or any other type of software that is running on my secound screen ... I've seen this mode on WoW and I realy liked it ... if it doesn't exists ... pls add it ...
any help/info on this is welcome ... thx

I used to play at 800x480 on my Eee-701, Does this mean it'll no longer run?

i support re-enabling any resolutions that *may* have been excluded. i dont see the point in excluding certain resolutions anyways.
is that so that stupid people dont accidently select a wrong one ?

EVE makes use of the allowed windows resolutions, if you manually add a certain resolution to your videocard settings and then restart EVE yuu can choose that res. I added 1600x1000, my monitor is 1680x1050 but I wanted an almost full screen windowed mode to run multiple accounts.
It's not rocket science.

there are tools out there that enable you to maximise a windowed client to full screen without the frame.
so it looks full screen but isnt. ( very useful for mutli monitor setups).
if you now complain about fps drop because of window mode you mightt want to think about a decent graphic adaptor.
not sure if its ok to post links in this forum , so i wont.. there is google.
evemover or eve launcher
HELP my monitor isnt working is it turned on? Yes.. ok can you turn it off? Oh thanks .. that did it.. - based on a true story |

If you use NVidia cards you can use their software to setup custom resolutions - eve wil use those

AFAIR, The Resolution list displayed by EVE is determined by your graphics driver - I've added custom resolutions before to play in a window on my 24" widescreen and they've always been available in the selection.
Have you recently updated your drivers ?
Another check I guess, can you change to the missing resolution on your Desktop ?
