I am getting nearly unplayable FPS in areas where the game ran perfectly before the patch (newbie minmatar space). I have every video setting turned down as far as possible but it doesn't help.
I asked in corp chat, and there were a few others who were having the same issue.

Me too. Used to comfortably fly from 35 to 50 FPS in space now it is stuck at 13..15 no matter what graphic settings I use. I can't play more than a minute before I get seasick.
I re-installed EVE from scratch; no changes.

Chalk me up with that problem too... ran decently smooth yesterday at 1680x1050 with my old geforce3 64 meg (for some reason EvE lets my card run that res while no other programme else will), but today after patching using the same rez (and even rez's far lower than that) the fps unplayable (id say in the 10-15 range, when before it was within the 30-40/50 fps range when just traveling around doing nothing to hectic).

I had the same problem, but was able to fix it.
Go into graphic settings make sure you have stencil buffer and 24bit colour with 8bit alpha enabled. That put my framerates back to where they were (about triple what it was initially post patch)

hmm ill give that try might work, since I was using the 24bit without the 8bit stencils - The Boot.ini Incident glances off your EvE Install causing no real damage! - |

Bump up post. Same problem here. My Frames per second dropped considerably after the patch. Its turtle slow at 10 - 12 frames per second out in space. I used to be able to run two clients at 1152 x 864 resolution without much trouble. Now I cant even run one client without the slow frame rate.
I am using an ATI All in Wonder 9800.

I used to play using the 1152x864 res. Still want it back as 1024x768 is to small and the 12xx resolutions are to big for my screen. I'm also feeling its laggy even at the lowest resolutions and I cant find out how to set my HZ. Looks to me as its running on like 60 HZ, hurting my eyes. ---------- Kill them all - God will recongnize his own. |

I'm having the same problem. I tried changing all of the settings to 24 bit with 8 bit stencils, and it increased my frame rate up to a whole 9fps from 7.5. Of course that could have happened since I was flying out of the station at full speed too. The weird thing about this is, it's only in certain solar systems. When I logged in in Deltole, I was getting an average framerate of 32 fps, but I noticed that the instead of smooth lines in the fps window, I was getting sawtoothed lines, like the frame rate was jumping up and down at a regular interval. I just figured it was lag due to the connection throttling and the number of people downloading the patch. After playing for a few hours, I have noticed that some systems I go into, my frame rate drops to between 5 and 15 fps. The only time I've ever gone under 20 fps pre-patch is when I was in an area where there were hundreds of wrecks, which is entirely understandable.
I'm running the classic client, with a geforce fx 5200 with 256 mb of ram @ 1600x1050 resolution (which ran fine tuesday). I also just started playing this game and was billed for my first month yesterday. And yes, I have tried adjusting resolutions, turning all of my settings on my graphics card down for performance, turning off all unneccessary programs running in the background, setting the priority of the program to "high" in task manager, and generally messing with every setting available to try and increase performance, all to NO AVAIL.

in windows set the display mode to 1024x768 , then set the refresh rate for that mode [it defaults to 60hz], then set the video mode back to what you want. when eve switches to that mode it will use the refresh rate you have set - this is a windows problem that has been around since DX8 [or eailer] -- BIG Lottery, BIG Deal, InEve & Portrait Server

same issue here. im getting an atonishing 5 fps consistently doing NOTHING in space.
i dont have the option to change the hertz amount when going to window mode. and turning on the 24 bit buffer with the stencil boosted me maybe .1 fps
im using an old geforce 3 so i dont have a lot of power to start with, but i could still get 10 fps in a fleet fight

Tell me about it, it has wrecked my whole display. You can run it in windowed mode but then fps takes a huge hit and its close to impossible to run double clients.

heres something i have been wondering about, Players who have bad fps in game, in low sec fps drops to 11fps or thereabouts for most folk i have spoken to.. in 0.0 it drops to a pathetic 5fps and in empire it drops to around 15-20. and in station it sits around 40+ could this be a Network timer data call issue?as more things that need to load into enviroment are responding with a higher fps..or is this just speculation?

dxdiag reports tend to be about 3 posts long.so you may need to post the entire info... if your concerned about security then blank anything that may be relevent to your computer name, directory names etc. however i have also seen that a player who is getting low Fps is recieving an insane amount of blocked calls from the server network wise..can anyone confirm this?

Please submit bug reports with your DXDiag files and eventually Logserver files if you have them. As we are unable to reproduce this internally in a consistent manner, we need to isolate the possible hardware/software causes that might be related to this issue.
The bug reporting page is HERE. Instructions on how to save DXDiag files and on how to use Logserver are HERE.
Thank you.

I get the best FPS when I set the windows desktop to 16bit, and both Eve graphics settings to all 16bit. Looks like crap but it's the only way I can run 3 clients on a geforce 6200 now. Surprisingly setting the desktop to 16bit doubled my FPS.

didn't help me, running with 24+8bit color and desktop @ 32bit yelds me a blistering 0.5-1 fps more than 16bit/16bit...

watching my network moniter in-game, i was a see 91 blocked calls when i was just sitting in space. that is a server side issue of calls not making it to my client from the server correct?

We must have similar systems, because that's exactly what I was/am getting
I submitted a bug report as well
Oddly enough, when I flew to the Rens system from the Isendeldik system, it seemed to improved a lot, not sure why.

using old client with minimal settings ive noticed an fps drop, altho not critical.
using two such clients however there's a drop from 50+ to fewer then 5 fps on either account, continously. can't dock as I'm way out there somewhere, so this is in space.
cba making more bugreports to you guys, as nothign ever gets done with them anyway.

I wish to confirm this - my fps is pretty saddening 7-10 most of the time, but I've noticed that it changes in systems. Aufay has healthier 20-30fps, but Balle on the other hand gives me the boot with before mentioned sub-par readings. I wonder if this is somekind of weird Cache issue.
Anyway, I hope this get fixed somehow other way than for me buying a new computer.. ------------------- This is Sig. Launch every Sig. For Great Justice. |

Same here. In one system the FPS is about 20-30. In the other it's around 10. Also in the system where it's 20-30 I'm not alone. In system where it's 10 I'm completely alone. That's just odd. Some CCP server or connection problem.

Experiencing huge FPS drop in stations, in space everything seems just fine.
Also: prepatch my GeForce 6800GT (already a hot tempered graphics card) ran at 90C, postpatch EVE manages to crank it up to 122C (!!!). I've matched all the settings to where they were prepatch, no difference.
Hope this gets fixed before my geforce burns a hole through the floor :P

Same here too! Before the patch I had no problem at all, but now it has dropped to 7-ish FPS instead of my usaul 30-ish. Something¦s terribly wrong here with this patch. I have found out that the FPS drops about 3 minutes after restarting the client. I tried that few times, everytjhing was just fine then BAM; down to like 7 FPS after a few minutes. It¦s almost unplayable at the moment

Reinstalled everything including windows xp pro, the eve client, all current drivers, nice and fresh. And the patch works just as horrible as it did from the moment I installed it. Please address this issue, and let us know that you are working on it. FPS inside of the station is actually not bad at all, but outside, it's a nightmare.

I was wondering the same thing. My first month's subscription was paid on Tuesday, 2 days later, the game is hardly playable, and there is no response from CCP other than my bug report saying that the bug was attached to a defect. Well, that's pretty obvious. Some information regarding this issue would be much appreciated.

Same issue... can't get more than about 7 fps - really poor frame rates after the patch. Have tried every setting available to try and fix it - the gfx settings seem to affect the in-station fps but not the in-space fps. in-station i can get up to 40fps... looking at nothing but the skybox in space i get about 6-7

Yeah... tried all different ways (added/deleted tabs,warped, etc). I'm stumped on this one- can't seem to fix fps from this end. Hopefully there'll be a fix for this one soon. Feels like i'm trying to run eve on my old 200MMX lol. |

i'm gettting crazy slow fps now use to run 4 accounts on 1 machine with fps of acound 30-50 average on them all now i'm struggling to run 2 accounts.
also when i'm just running 1 account i'm getting all kindas of weird and wonderful graphical errors with txt suddenly appearing at 45 degree angles over screen and light effects cutting through it all.
of course with running so many accounts i normally have all settings turned to as low as possible.

I'm using a work laptop (IBM T43) with Intel video, so I've only ever been able to run the Classic Content.
I find it interesting to see that, when I'm in the dock, I have no loss to my FPS whatsoever. When I'm in space, however, especially when I'm warping, it's like I'm watching a flip-book it's so choppy.
I've sent my Bug Report, and have included my full DXDiag Report, and I recommend everybody do the same. Make sure you run through every tab, and run every test, so that CCP has the most information possible with which to fix this issue.

I'm eating the FPS problem as well. So far, I've lagged in every system I've gone into. My character here is sitting in high sec currently while my alt is at a pos in 0.0. The only time I've not lagged was when my alt left the system he was in into another. I thought maybe because I screwed with my graphics that it might have been the reason for the changes so I jumped back into the previous system and the FPS went directly into the toilet again.
My idea: Bring back the star. The star clearly was the only thing holding the system together...
When you wish upon a star... Maybe eve will be playable...

Yes I have. This setting hasn't changed, and I'm still getting nice FPS while docked, which turns to sludge when undocked.
Since I changed the Cache setting from "normal" back to "low", as it seems was modified after the 1.1 Boost Patch, all of my settings are now as they were previously - before the 1.1 Boost Patch, when everything worked fine.
Still sludgy. Still a frame-fest. Still waiting on a fix.

Edited by: Antheon on 14/03/2008 21:54:49 I just flew into the Eystur system from the Lustrevik system. The FPS seemed to be back to normal in this system for some reason. I docked and loaded 2 new blasters I bought off the market and undocked, and the FPS went to **** again.
I minimized and came back a minute later, maximized and the FPS is back to an acceptable level.
Not sure if this will help or not.
edit: I jump to Pator and the FPS is still at a good level, but the moment I reach the Ammold system it turns to **** again
I'm no programmer, but it seems that there is a legitimate problem here, it's not just a general FPS loss

Not reading all posts, sorry if it has been posted before.
Have this problem too and it seems to be related to picture rendering from noob players. When clicking one I only get the "!", after some time has past in the same system there is suddenly a huge drop in the fps and then the picture gets rendered. Maybe this helps.

I don't know, but this thread has managed to steadily grow, while the lack of information regarding what CCP is doing about it amounts to zero. If this were a free to play game, I'd expect this. However this is not a free to play game, and CCP or one of its representatives should show a bit of consideration to its paying customers regarding this and all of the other issues that have arisen from patch deployment. I'm not asking for an ETA (although it would be nice to know, subjectively speaking), but just a simple acknowledgement of the issue at hand, and confimation that it will or will not be addressed in the near future. Show us a little consideration please.

Just my own update - I played tonight, and it seems very much better for me. I haven't made any changes to my settings, cleared no cache, etc., and yet, it seems better.
Back-end database issues, perhaps? Maybe everybody was dl'ing the patch from the same cluster as the gameplay was occurring on?
I don't know, but while I wouldn't say it's fixed for everybody, it seems significantly better for me.
Anyone else notice an improvement?

Peculiar, how the majority of posters fail to mention whether they run Premium or Classic content. I get 12-15 fps with Classic (about 25 before the patch), but 25-30 with Premium (15-20 pre-patch). Windowed vs. full-screen client also might make a difference.

True. I run the classic client and have about the same fps as you (25-30 prepatch, 9-12 postpatch) running the classic client in Full-screen. I might try it windowed, but is windowed mode generally more or less fps?

Some suggestions:
- It seems a lot of the peeps with problems have a Geforce 5 FX series (I do)
- almost all players are running the classic client?
- upgrading to latest graphics drivers didn't help for me
- changing from window mode to fullscreen mode didn't help for me
- most important thing for me here: It doesn't occur in all systems. Some systems I have still the old, way better fps of around 30, and as I jump into next system drop down to 10.

No, the geforce series is not guilty in this, i'm running ATI Radeon x1300pro and i get the same problem (not as heavy as for some of you, but stil noticeable).
And amongst of my friends, who also get this problem not everyone's running geForces, and none of those who does - 5xxx series. Strange, m?
Besides, yes, it looks like fps depends on a system, dunno why...

Two GeForce 8800GTX's in SLI here. Getting 60+fps outside (VERY low compared to normal), EXCEPT for when I turn my camera in a certain direction, at which point the game lags for a split second and FPS drops to ~20-30. During certain missions with gas clouds it has dropped to the 10-15fps range depending on camera direction. Absolutely horrible for my config. |

I'm suffering this problem on my other PC at the moment... 20fps or so down to a flat 8fps in my home system (it's like the fps meter has a limiter on it.. just a flat line across the screen).
Originally after a bit of exploring in higher sec systems, I thought that it might be something to do with the new can timer, but I found I had the same issue in some 0.8 systems, so that ruled cans out. I did a bit more testing and found that it was generally better in systems above 0.8 sec status.
under 0.8 sec, it seems the larger the number of asteroid belts, the fewer fps I get. So, that got me wondering if there was any correlation between the presence and quantity of belt rats in a particular system... yes, I'm clutching at straws, lol

I sent in a DxDiag and a logserver file as a bugreport.
No change here on my end. Still classic client, 1152x864 windowed, sound turned off, ATI all in wonder 9800, 2 gigs ram, AMD 3700+.
Still running 1 client at a wonderfull 10 - 12 fps. Some systems( as in few ) see a whopping 24fps. Most are 10 - 12 or 14-16 fps.
In case anyone hasn't noticed, when you jump into another system and the overview hasn't loaded up yet, your fps goes through the roof. I'm talking 80 to 120fps. But when the overview loads, its back down to the lower FPS.
If there was a way we could turn off the overview, I'd be willing to bet we would see a massive fps increase.

Still having the problem. Some systems are slightly better (Nonni and Nannaras i believe), raising the fps from 8 to 20 or sometimes even 30 on classical client. I think that the difference between systems should be a good hint for the devs to work on, but then again i might just swapped thinking for hoping :) Please do work on it though, even moving is very dangerous now and as i live in 0.0 full time, i can't play now.

I disagree. I believe everyone in game IS experiencing the FPS drop. Its just there are those in game with very powerfull systems and the FPS drop isn't noticable to them.
To experiment, get your corpmates to press ctrl-f to show their frames per second. Then have your corpmates jump into a system that sends your fps plummeting and have them tell you if their is a difference.
I've had a few corpies do this for me and they experience a massive fps drop, just not enough to lag them out so they notice. For instance, a drop fro 60fps to 35 fps when they jump into a system that drops me down to 10 - 12 fps.
I still believe its the new overview causing this, but I cant verify other than seeing a massive fps increase jumping from one system to the next just before the overview loads the system. After loading the system, its back to the low fps.

Ya that could be true. I never thought about that. If your a guy with a normal 100 fps and you goto 50 you probably wouldn't notice lol. Yet I am one of those fools who is doing good at 25-40 pre-boost =/ Finally all the graphics glitches got taken care of on Linux and I dont get the fps to enjoy it. Thats classic.

Edited by: Durao on 16/03/2008 07:31:01 I run a classic client on an old laptop - had a much higher fps pre-patch.
I definitely sent a bug report with dxdiag and log info.
I hope everyone does this to resolve the problem. Don't just send in dxdiag - send them a log report so they can actually see what's happening.
I love Eve, and I hope the issue gets resolved soon. |

I'm getting the same FPS issues, also running a FX5500. I've notcied the same thing regarding different systems performing differently, but I've drawn a conclusion that larger systems (ie 60+ au warps between gates) draw much worse FPS than smaller systems.
Is something being done differently client side regarding system mapping orsomesuch?

I think ccp lowered frame rates to see who will report the problem. Its a conspiracy to weed out all of the bad customers they dident want anyways.

Quote: I still believe its the new overview causing this, but I cant verify other than seeing a massive fps increase jumping from one system to the next just before the overview loads the system. After loading the system, its back to the low fps.
This tbh.
I've noticed that the fps drop seems to be negated in every situation in which you do not have a loaded overview. When running single account the difference is noticeable, but when running two the difference is enormous. As soon as one character jumps out, is in warp, or logs out: immediate fps explosion on BOTH characters.

I just did a quick test on both my PC's the results:
Alikara - New caldari 9 fps - 35 fps (classic client, 1.7 ghz P4, GF 5600 XT) 25 fps - 50 fps (premium client, 3.0 ghz P4, GF 6600)
So it does seem to effect both PCs, It's just not as noticable on the ones running at higher framerates. _

I can run one account semi-ok, but there is a significant drop in Frame Rates. I can't run multiple clients anymore. Prior to the latest patch, I was able to run 4 clients easily on my pc with no lag or shortcomings on Frame Rates. Now if I launch a second account EVE just comes to a grinding halt. I can't click anywhere, frame rates are less then 5. white screens in space. I tried loading a 3rd client and I think my PC laughed at me as though it knew something I didn't... because my eve clients froze up.
This is just crazy. They try to fix one thing and end up screwing something else up. And now everyone is having the problem, so it's no isolated.Why can't the QA team ever catch these things? We always get the same damn answer from CCP: "...we were not able to duplicate these errors on our end... please send us a copy of your DXDiag and your logs..."

The fact that some systems have less problems and showing the same # of fps as pre-patch (New Caldari, Odotte, Nonni etc.) gives me some hope the devs canduplicate this problem. They just have to see what the difference is between those systems and modify it till ther duplicated the problem (and then remove it). Then again, i'm no IT guy so i probably think too simple about these things...

I haven't been playing much after the patch and FPS problems, but I can say that things are ok in 1V-LI2 and FPS drops in Q-K2T7. So maybe check the difference between those systems - something's wrong there.

i started having the same problem only it started soon. when the new grafics came out i tryed it ran nicly but hade some problems over a longer time playing probaly a problem with with a memory leak any ways whent back to the old grafik system and it ran just as it use to untill the next patch. they fixed alot of stuff with the new but some how it totaly ****** my comp with the old i have ben getting worst every patch after that with a new fix for the new grafiks i think that manny of the things they do to fix the new are forced onto the old grafiks probaly getting the cpu to run shaders it dont have to with the old or something like that course all the old grafik cards dont have new shader chips. tho im lucky i found out that if i run the new grafiks wiht no shaders or any other smart stuff that i can play again. hope this might help some people ..
PS. dear EVE team u need to reastablish the old settings for the old grafiks meby force any grafik changes to take place befor running the game so u actualy end up with 2 engiens that run for the same game . love cali

I'm running the classic client.
In station I get 20FPS, in space 4.5FPS, at POS 1.4FPS. All effects turned off, everything as minimal as I can get it. Seems to be the same no matter where I am, but I haven't exactly signed up for long distance fleet ops since the problem started.

I'm not exactly sure why, but I got a significant FPS increase after the patch. Prior to the patch I was lucky to see 60FPS in an empty 0.0 system. Now? 95-100FPS in the same system filled with corpmates all in the same location (corp mining op) full effects, premium graphics, etc blah blah blah.
What I did do was uninstall EVE and make sure every file associated with EVE was gone. Performed a defrag on my games drive and reinstalled the patched client. All settings remained identical.

CCP sort it out and sort it out fast....
I dont have a flash top of the range pc but it ran quite happily prior to the patch with both characters able to operate in dual or seperate tasks without any issue and happily able to ALT TAB on full screen mode between the 2.
Now i can run 1 account only as soon as i open the 2nd account i either crash out or FPS drop to a average off around 5-6 FPS i cant even pan the camera angle round without it coughing and spluttering like a 60 a day smoker.
So whats the point now of having a extra account ...tbh none at all waste of cash and time .Everyone logs on to destress and chill out on a game that was fun .Now i log on and am wasting cash on aaccount that worked 100% fine prior to all this upgrade and only thing im sure of is that im 100% DISATISFIED.
Listen to the masses and do something about it at the end of the day all we get is fobbed of with a handfull of lame excuses that wore thin a couple years ago but instead of this being addressed and improving its going down the pan .So the sake off your paycheque (its us that pays it) and our sanity get a grip admit you messed up and give us some answers.Then fix them roll it back hotfix do whatever cos if it aint fixed ...and i dont think im speakin for just me not only my alt but my main are gonna logout for good .I dont want a automated response in fact i dont care if you dont respond to a single petition ...but sort it NOW .

Edited by: Saidor on 17/03/2008 21:44:11 GF 7600 GT, my FPS is about 1/3 to 1/10 pre-1.1 deployment.
At a POS with alliance and no enemies/gridloading I am running 3-4 FPS. Game is near unplayable in all except benign environments now.
Whatever was done for Trinity 1.1 needs a serious looking at IMO.
(this low FPS is regardless or bracket settings with nearly everything turned off - I see less stuff now than pre-1.1 and its far more laggy!)

I'm going to add to the "me too" post. I've noticed a few things since Trinity 1.1
1. General FPS decrease of about 1/2. Zooming close into a ship will drop me to single digit fps. 2. IN-STATION is nearly unplayable. 3. RAM usage is through the roof. Previously I had no problems having Eve, & Firefox open. Now just hitting the windows key to bring up the task bar causes a couple minutes of HD thrashing.

Have you all unistalled eve and grabbed the new client? I run eve in vista 64 with an 8800gts 640, and I lost two-box functionality with Trinity 1.0 like a lot of people. It took reinstalling vista after a serious crash to get me to grab a new eve client, but that fixed multi-client performance for me.
I now have these problems again. Despite plenty of bandwidth, opening a second client (where I used to be able to open 3-4) causes FPS rates to drop to a miserable, unworkable level.
I'm off to reinstall eve, but regardless of my results, I recommend this to everyone as a basic guideline for assessing post-patch problems that appear to be system-specific.
Luck!

For the drastic fps crash when multi-clienting i reported on the end of the last page, reinstalling eve with the new premium client installer solves my problems.
Hope all of you with serious fps issues post-patch have tried this. I know the problem I've had twice now with Trinity patches doesn't solve itself otherwise.

Reformatting my hard drive and reinstalling Eve didn't make one bit of a difference. I noticed that in the Oueletta system, my fps went back to 42-50 fps for some strange reason (just like pre-patch in EVERY system). Jump one system over to Jufvitte, it's back to under 10 fps. Makes no sense whatsoever.

Well i have FPS drops in certain systems when looking at areas of High lag like outside stations even though im 50+au away it occurs when fighters are deployed from carriers.dont know if its related but all i can think of is its database calls to and from my client telling which areas of space are populated with stuff..dont know the techy geek code for the explanation.anyway system specs are pretty dire. P 4 dual Core 3.2Ghz O/c to 4.0 Ghz Geforce 6 Overclocked card (self done) 533mhz 512mb heatsink is bigger than the one on my cpu :P Memory is 2.1gb also o/c p.s. ive tried running with Factory presets and a lil Geforce 5600 card it doesnt make a difference in these situations.

when they can't find the bug they have to rollbac ist, it#s a normal doing. Like the category cargo thing that was added a while ago and removed again because it was not wirking.
And when the bug is resolved the can integrate the patch again, but not use the whole eve community as beta testers. i'm not paying for this

It's not just his account, my subscription is already cancelled. Since I paid for one month the day before the patch, it really ticked me off. I'll be logging in to train skills, but that's about all I can do. I've watched 3 agent offers expire since this hit, and my faction steadily decrease, and am able to do nothing about it, so what's the ****ing point of playing this game? One day it's fine, the next day it's not, and it's not getting better. I'm already investing time in another mmo, and having fun...not looking back, even though I loved Eve, once upon a week ago.

It is just not one account! It is a CAPITAL account! CCP should get into the video card and computer component industry. Make computers that can run the type of game they make.

Hmmm.. been a week and still no change?... Logged in just now and thought it might be ok since I was getting 40+ fps inside teh stations, undock and bang down to 7 fps again.
Im wondering if somehow the engine isnt ignoring the rendering of stations planets and ships outside of the players maximum visual range... might account for why some systems are fine and others aint (although given some people mention normaly decent population systems are fine for them might blow that idea out of the water). So basicly your cards rendering every damn ship within the system in your line of site regardless of its distance from the player. Then again i know nothing...
Account runs out in 2 weeks... dont think im gonna continue if all I can do is sit in a station and train. Thankfully theres a chance I might make it into the WAR Beta soon. - The Boot.ini Incident glances off your EvE Install causing no real damage! - |

Still utterly crap FPS. No point undocking or trying to pvp when you get 13 FPS outside of an empty station.

Right to the top. Any acknowledgement of this huge issue? I started playing Eve on a laptop which now gets 5 fps, if I started now I wouldnt be carrying on. Maybe rethink the Wingman promotion until this is sorted?
On my main computer I am getting 12 FPs in space which shoots up to 35 as soon as I open the star map. Dual accounting is almost impossible.

Yet another extended downtime, and yet again no improvement in the FPS problem. Still no communication or confirmation from CCP that they are working to resolve this issue. Its been a week FFS. Come on CCP, I know you read these forums because you are only too happy to respond when its not a negative or difficult issue being asked about.

Bump. I use the Classic client (patched) and I have the FPS drop too.
So far it is clearly seen that only classic gfx users have the problem.
Also I have this for you:
One guy in a different EVE forum has reported, that he was able to solve the problem by
1)installing eve from a freshly downloaded Premium package then 2)disabling the premium content.
As a result he was able to get classic gfx with pre-patch fps levels.
Can someone else confirm this? This is definitely a thing to try while waiting for CCP responce.

Indeed, this workaround (activate the starmap and play only using your overview) seems to work. Great for PvE players, as you only need the overview to finish most missions anyway.For PvP-ing it is not so good, as you have need a lot of actions were you need to click in space or otherwise need visuals. Quite ironic that a player comes with this and not CCP, but maybe it helps CCP some more to a good solution for this.

Edited by: Aknecep on 19/03/2008 22:44:01 Edited by: Aknecep on 19/03/2008 22:42:29 I have played the game 2 days now. I almost stopped completely after 2 hours of constant lag everytime I approach a stargate/base and have to sit in space after gating/docking because I lock up.
My computer (and I am a computer technician btw and ftw) has a dual core 2 cpu, 2 gigs of ddr3 ram, Aureal 3D sound, and NVIDIA's 8800 GT viddy card. My connection is a very consistent 7ish MB download stream with a 400 kb or so upload stream... I check my speeds on occasion and almost absolutely always get this result from speakeasy.com...
Now, I'm looking for a tweak with EVE's cache that I can make, a switch to an unsupported driver that might work better than NVIDIA's most current official one, something that I can do that isn't the normal... uhh, duh... it's your ISP... or update your drivers dude... Like I said, computers are my life (don't tell my wife) so I don't want the humdrum crap. I'm looking for something real that will fix or at least explain why when I get to a freaking stargate and/or base (and I'm finding we have to use them CONSTANTLY) I lag to oblivion for a few seconds before and after the jump/dock or undock.
I've tried a slew of option alternatives and configurations with my video settings ingame - with and without the new graphics implemented, really crap resolution to what I usually run on my 23" lcd monitor which is pure high rez (1080p) - it simply doesn't matter what I do I always get these little freezes so I'm missing something... maybe it's not video, maybe it's CPU or sound?... but when I upgraded to NVIDIA's newest driver for my card it did lessen it to a more bearable level. I dunno... I have turned off music altogether and the voip options to no avail also.
Thank you so much for helping me out in advance. I'm loving the game but the lag is driving me nuts since I don't get it otherwise... For those of you that play WoW... I can walk into Orgrimmar and port to Shatt'rah with no lag... none... so my system usually performs like it's skating on glass.
The whole "play just with the starmap" option... Yeah, I tried that and I freeze everytime I jump with the starmap open I freeze with the starmap up... it's not even freakin graphics based apparently. What gives?

I do agree, it would be nice to have CCP notify us in a post about known problems that are really affecting gameplay and what they are doing to correct them. However, I still don't think that outright aggression and thoughtless behavior will solve any problem. And to respond to your last sentence: moose waffle blubber spatula gazebo.

I have no problem with FPS... I think people confuse FPS issues with latency issues... lag and drop in fps do not necessarily exemplify the same possible cause(s).
I usually run at 60 fps on average. Until I warp to a stargate or undock from a base. When I warp or dock otherwise I'm fine. What happens isn't graphics related because it still happens when I have my starmap open. Everything freezes for about 3 seconds and continues normally. I've no excess running processes and doesn't seem to make a difference at all whether my graphics and sound settings are this or that extreme and what the combination is or whether or not I have background or other appys running at the same time as EVE I still get this bizarre lock up of a few seconds when I'm undocking any base (populated by players or not) and warping to a stargate (also when I'm trying to get close to jump)... otherwise, the game is smoo-ooooth. I love this game but as a new player I am disappointed in these hiccups which occur often since we all know how often we have to jump in the game.

No, I am not confusing fps with "lag". I've been playing PC games for 10 years.
I sit in Isendeldik, open the FPS window and it hovers around 10-12 fps. I know for a FACT that before the boost patch, I hovered around 40-45.
I'll be patient and hope for a fix. I subbed for my first month 3 days before the boost patch, and I like my Amarr character :)

Add another to the pile - same problem here. I'd like to add the observation that the in-station environment is worse than anything outside Even when the station environment is turned off.
The above mentioned FPS boost when turning off the overview/windows/menubar has always been true. I'm not sure if that means it's gotten worse or is just more noticeable now. Low FPS in stations without the background loaded would suggest some menu/window related thing?
I'll be a good boy and submit dx info and log server files later tonight. |

Originally by: Sporolichimisu Reformatting my hard drive and reinstalling Eve didn't make one bit of a difference. I noticed that in the Oueletta system, my fps went back to 42-50 fps for some strange reason (just like pre-patch in EVERY system). Jump one system over to Jufvitte, it's back to under 10 fps. Makes no sense whatsoever.
How many planets and moons in each?
I see Oueletta has barely any but Jufvitte is really packed.
I have the exact same issue in Brundakur and Alf as extreme examples. I wrote a forum post about it but I can't find the thing anymore.
The more planets and moons in a system, the slower the game gets, that's my experience, and it's *directly proportional to the number of planets and moons*. It's just a shame systems with low numbers of planets and moons are so uncommon in the game...

Edited by: Durao on 21/03/2008 15:12:22 I submitted a second bug report with logs and dxdiag files. This time I flew from Penirgman in Amarr space (decent fps) to Ashab (really poor fps). Penirgman had 142 in local compared with Ashab's 101. The two systems are adjacent to each other.
Why is the one with less people also less fps than the other? I don't know. Also, even in decent fps systems, it is still lower than prior to the boost patch. I can't really report that with the bug report and logs, though. I just know based on my ability to play the game before and after the patch.
I hope we can get this solved. I love my Eve.
The logs are very important. If you submit a bug report about this, please do it with a log file attached. |

For those of you using laptops with the NVidia GeForce Go 5200 graphics card 64mb, I stumbled onto a solution that boosted me from .5 fps to 9fps. I went to the NVidia website to download the latest drivers. They have a bundle that is as current as of 2007. Unfortunately, after downloading and installing, it says it cannot find the necessary hardware. What I did was I went through the device manager, selected my graphics card, and went to "Update Driver" Then I selected "install from a list...", I clicked on "don't search", then to "have disk" then specified the drive (c:/nvidia/win2k/169.21/english) hit "ok" then selected my model from the list that appears. Then followed the prompts and rebooted my system. The change for me was incredible. The graphics are beautiful in station (50fps) and manageable in space (7-14 fps) There is an NVidia manager that lets you real techies tweak your system. Me, I just let my mouse hover over the various options and selected performance over quality everytime. I hope this helps everyone. For CCP, just wire me a reasonable reward for helping you keep your paying customers.

The number of moons in system seems to be true for me as well. Will try the driver thing posted above (I run a 5200FX), and will post results later.

Updating the driver didn't improve fps for me.
But you are right with the moons, imho. It really seems to be the indicator for laggy systems or perfectly running ones. In a system with like 3 moons I practically have no lag at all.

Just to add my 2 cents to this thread.
Bought a laptop yesterday, was expecting to be at least play eve on the lowest settings. It has an integrated card, Intel Duo 2 @1.66Ghz. 2Gb of Ram.
So fair enough it has an integrated card, but I am able to run half life 2 @ 20-50fps depending on what is going on, which is fairly decent.
In Eve I get around 10-15fps, with the classic client, lowest settings. Its just not playable like this. I have another rig at home, can play the game fine, but there I have a dedicated graphics card. Forget the name but its a new Radeon card.... Game runs fine. Ram is only 1024mb though, with a AMD 2800+.
I removed Vista and installed XP, game runs as stated above. With vista it was running at around 5fps...... nightmare. Someone mentioned way back on page 1 or 2 that maybe people with powerful rigs have had a drop in performance, but just don't notice it as their rigs can still cope. With a lower spec machine though, it really hits the performance.

I have posted in the Windows section about this, but thought I'd post here too to make it clear to CCP and anyone that reads this forum that there IS a problem. Before the patch I was able to run two premium clients simultaneously in windowed mode. Now, I can run one classic client fine, but the second I try and undock with the second, the FPS plummets to 1-2 FPS and the space turns white. Now I accept that there will be bugs with patches, but the thing that really bothers me is the complete silence from CCP. Sure, I'll file a bug report, but it would be nice to hear from ANYONE that you know that there's a problem and that you're working as hard as you can to fix it. That's all. Because right now all I've heard is silence and it's making me wonder if those of us that are having this problem are just too small a number for you to care about. I don't want to think that, but you're not giving me many options right now. I had my accounts set to go on year-long pay periods, but with this experience I'm switching them back to monthly as there's no point in paying for a broken game if I'm not 100% positive that anyone gives a damn about fixing it. That is all.

I have something like this
My FPS will decide to randomly drop to 10 or so, and nothing changes it. After a while, it comes back up to 40.
I believe this is related to loading the 3d stuff. I remember when the engine was first released, it loaded things very slowly. It seems to have gotten faster, except that it gets stuck on one unimportant thing. The low FPS behavior is similar to that of loading.
Some object doesn't want to load properly, and the engine freezes up until it can load it, which in some cases it can't. -----sig-starts-here------

I have just gone on test server and can confirm, in fact, that my fps is great on test server (totally playable), and tranquility remains unplayable. Whatever's going on in the test server needs to be transferred to tranquility. I suggest others try and see if it is better for them on test as well.

I have been unable to really use my second account on my laptop since the patch. Pre-patch FPS around 30, now FPS is 6-10. Operating in 0.0 with gatecamps at that frame rate totally sucks, and is basically unplayable.
My laptop is running Classic Client, and I've tried turning off and minimizing everything I can do, with no change in frame rate.

C'mon CCP. I know you can do it. Honesty and integrity will take you a long way. At the very least, reply to our cries for help and let us know where you stand on this issue, so we can make an informed decision upon what to do. Your game is awesome, but you need to respond to your customers. If you can't do it yourself, hire me to do it, or hire others to do it. Inform us as to what you are doing regarding this issue. I personally believe that you are hard at work at something, and probably don't want to delve into what it is, but WE THE PEOPLE, deserve an answer.

I fear there is a very good reason why we are not hearing anything on this issue, almost two weeks after the patch. I think that the last patch rolled out something which will later be used to implement either (a) ambulation (b) planetary interaction (might explain the links between moons and poor FPS) (c) both, and that CCP have no intention of rolling it back as this would negatively impact on these much touted new elements to the game. If they were to come out and say this, those of us unwilling/unable to upgrade would be offski very quickly. I wonder how many people have not cancelled accounts in the last two weeks in the hope the problem would be resolved and how much income this has retained for CCP?
Baseless speculation perhaps, cynical maybe, but I'm yet to hear a better answer.
Come on CCP, tell us what's going on.

Already my main account expired and this 2nd one has some time left till is gone, i canceled my both accounts due to this problem, simply the game can't be played after the last patch.
I don't plan to return either because i think this company doesn't deserve my money and already got hooked by another game.

I suggest that everybody(!) with low FPS sends in a bug-report every day right after downtime. Receiving every day hundreds or thousands of bug-reports with nearly same content should convince them to do something. At least the BugHunting-Team will kick the dev-teams ass to stop the bug-reports. It is really humbling to beg for response.

I'm having the same problem on my laptop which is running the classic client. Dropped from around 40fps in space to well below 15fps (T7250 dual core 2Ghz, 2GB RAM, ATI x1350 128MB). My desktop pc which is a bit faster and is running the premium client seems to be unaffected by this problem.

Pre-patch a consistent 30-40FPS, post patch as high as 30 if I aim my view away from all objects and background, down to as low as 1-2 FPS if I'm deep in a lot of action.
I have to play every mission zoomed out 100% /sadpanda fortunately I fly a drake so I don't have to manage much other than the overview anyway.
I've seen a number of worse bugs in prior games, and eve is an incredible game thus far, or I wouldn't have been this patient. Nevertheless it'd be nice to see my ship again.. Sometime.

Been on holidays for 4 days, was hoping for some resolution or announcement on this issue but nope.
About the correlation with moons, could this be related to the new brackets in space options? (moons were ofc broken in this patch and their icon is never visible in space unless you are on the same grid, any chance of fixing this as well CCP, quite a crucial issue for many players)

I have the same problem post-patch (didn't see this thread before!). I'm also occassionally getting "white-out" (skybox turns white, fps dives to 1-2 fps). I was previously at around 40 with 2 clients, now its 15 - 20.

I find Sma Zakalw's post interesting (about support for new client enhancements later this year being added into this patch) ... that's something I hadn't considered until now. Planetary interaction could wreak havoc for volumetric rendering code and drop fps pretty bad, especially if not implemented right. Not sure if there is any basis to this particular problem, but now I'm a bit curious to see what will happen when the code rollouts for all the ambulation, etc, stuff takes place. Most of the things I do in game are sitting in station... but man does it suck to venture out in space with 4 fps lol [meanwhile, still waiting patiently for fix...] |

I was having this problem with one of my laptops. Upgraded to latest drivers and everything works fine...usually.
I believe the last time I updated drivers was somewhere after Dragon Code, or maybe it was shortly after Revelations 1. Either way, it's been a long time and I can't really remember.. That driver update was because one of those 2 patches caused the jump lines on my starmap to disappear! I can get them to reappear by moving so far out as to make seeing them pointless, while putting the map in 3d mode, tilting it upside down, and staying near the center of the map. ...I'm serious, I actually have to do that...
At any rate, the map is no longer showing jump lines again since driver update I did following Boost Patch! 
I also said everything works fine, usually... Well, sometimes when I'm in space and looking around at objects and things, the framerate will just crap out for no reason until I jump or dock. It usually seems that maybe I'm moving the camera around too quickly or perhaps there are more objects in the direction of the sun than the machine likes or something... I'm not really sure, it just seems entirely random.
One thing I am really happy about, though, is the fact that I can now change systems, have new ships appear on grid, launch drones, lock targets, or check someone's details without the machine freaking out and locking up for 20-40 seconds at a time while it reams my drive as it has since Trinity.

Hmm well I got finnished installing my new system and graphics card yesterday and gave EvE (classic client) a spin to see what sort of improvement id get, well 90-120fps compared to my old post 'boost' patch 5-15fps was quite a smile maker. However I did notice my card was basicly expelling air that could melt faces from the back vent. Looking at Rivatuners hardware monitor, there was a odd trend...
While docked inside a station my GPU usage was 100% (with temperatures to match that 70+ degrees), undocked and flying around the GPU usage was more in the 50-70% range and the temps where a hell of a lot lower (45-50 degrees).
Why does being docked basicly uber use your graphics card and basicly attempt to fry the thing and being outside not?... on classic client to boot.
My Vid cards a Sapphire HD3870 and ive set the fan speed to a constant 50% with rivatuner since that cards known to have a borked fan control bios that keeps it set at 25%. - The Boot.ini Incident glances off your EvE Install causing no real damage! - |

I guess writing a letter and posting it might result in an actual anwer from CCP faster than waiting for them to respond on their own game-forum. I'm really wondering why CCP haven't learned how much solid communication is worth to their customer base.
(and yes, only 10 fps here as well for the last few weeks. just unplayable.)

Very good - I have a machine on which Eve is unplayable now. Also there is this issue with having 2 clients running on the same machine - Impossible since last patch because they both crash after a while... :( CCP Please give us casual players a Skill-Queue !

However, it's still a tawdry response and encapsulates how CCP have handled themselves appalingly during the course of this thread. I actually get the impression that they have something of a disdain towards their player base.

Edited by: Dapper Danny on 30/03/2008 05:59:33 Edited by: Dapper Danny on 30/03/2008 05:58:01 Its interesting but after noticing a 100% gpu usage and temp increases while just sitting docked in a station ive looked at other parts of EvE and heres an odd one to be sure...
When sitting on the login screen which isnt much more than a few 2d images or so with a simple 3d scene, my gpu in less than half a second (according to rivatuner) goes being 35 degrees on the desktop to almost 60 degrees on the login screen... in less than half a second!. Also the GPU usage meter reads 88-90% GPU being used... for a login screen?.
My question is, Why is it using so much?... while this isnt a great comparison example, ive been playing Unreal 2 the last few days which is a realy old game these days but I never played it on any real good settings when I bought it since my old vid card was ancient and so I thought id give it a spin with my new vid card I got a week ago. Now even in the biggest fire fight, with all settings at maximum (along with 8x aa) the GPU usage never broke past the upper 70% mark, and the temp never real broke past 45 degrees. This is with my GPU fan set at 50% speed.
Why is my HD3870 vid card basicly breaking its butt rendering a simple login screen?. Anyone else got similar results?... something has to be seriously wrong with that. Good that they've acknowledged it and are fixing it. - The Boot.ini Incident glances off your EvE Install causing no real damage! - |

Hi all: I don't know if this will help anyone else, but it *seemed* to work for me. I was doing a full reinstall of XP, and was having major FPS issues with Eve after the patch...but when I installed the .Net update, it seemed to solve it.
Link to MS download page (22.4mb): Linky
As I say, I don't know whether this will work for anyone else: I certainly hope so, 'cos it annoyed the sh1t outta me. :)

Very interesting workaround for described feature. 1) Start DXDIAG utility 2) Run Test Direct 3D (only one enough)
After that texture reloaded and game unfreezes.

i play 2 clients always, and i noticed on my pentium dual core than before each client used 50% of cpu...well 49% now they dont use 50% of cpu each, they share 50% of cpu both, i mean if one is 19% the other is 31%, they never go beyond 50% use both added, also got a severe preformance hit, im not playing anymore

Run eve on a single core and not both. Split them up between the two different cores. Should be the fix you need.

Can't believe I read that entire thing. I was hoping you would get to a logical point of why this is happening to people who have played this game completely fine before Trinity. My gaming rig has no problem playing this, but my run-of-the-mill laptop has 3-4 FPS when it should be 15-20. (You use one period at the end of sentences by the way. NOT 3)

First off: Almost everyone here is talking about classic graphics setups. The premium graphics content seems not to have the horrible amount of failure. Second: Devs said they found the problem and are quality testing a fix... where the hell do you get off the crazy train and join the rest of us in reality?
Quote: I never lag in this game... ever... it's freaking awesome...
Apparently you've never seen a decent system or been in a real 0.0 fight. Enjoy 0.5 mining in high sec I guess.
Quote: unplayable FPS? That sounds bizarre and ridiculous...
Really, you've never left high sec... its obvious.

90% of the eve community is very well versed with their computers and play a game that most your WoW fanbois can't handle because of the difficulty of the learning curve. If they're willing to invest the time to play this game, they can damn well spend the time to learn about their computers.
Quote: I'm an IT professional and networking dude so maybe it's cuz I know how to keep my computer inline with changing software demands or something like I don't delete files when I don't know what they are and I don't do something to my PC unless I know wtf I'm doing?
BTW IT professionals are also the people who sit behind computers reading from little books of general knowledge about computer problems. Those kinda people also don't speak english as a first language and work in Indian outsourcing houses. Oh, and if you got MS certified, you can **** on the certificate and light it on fire because you still have about as much knowledge as the general computer user who spent the time reading the manual that came with their system.
In the end, don't be an asshat. Learn to punctuate. Get some real eve experience. THEN come talk to the rest of us.

for those who have had this fps problem and have been testing it in sisi
it was true that the fps would drop tremendously around moons and planets however, not i noticed it is the same for stations too? amirite?
if im docked or undocked facing the station, screen lags up and my fps is down to around 5 however, if im out in space somewhere away from a station...its fine...awkward
when will ccp ever get it right

Edited by: TheRealBanana1 on 04/04/2008 05:33:19 Yea I got the bad FPS problem too. I used to get 100+, now Im down to the 30's. But I fixed it. When I turn on nHancer with my EVE Online profile, the FPS problem clears up. Back to 100+ fps, even with 16x CSAA.
Here's the profile settings for others who want to test: http://pastebin.ca/970655
Just copy all that into a notepad and save it as eveonline.nhprofile, then import it into nHancer. I should also note my system specs:

Bellow you can see some screens taken both in empire, highsec and the qy6 wtfpwnd! 700-in-local race.
My specs ( and i'm still working on the rig )
CPU - E6550 RAM - 4GB HDD - 120GB Seagate Barracuda SATA I@the time of the screens ( now replaced for a WD SATA II ) Graphics - XFX 7900GS 256MB
So nothing special still need to work some specs of the old machine but everything runs great, yes i noticed a bit of performance decrease with the latest patch but i seem to be a bit puzzled when everyone complains about freezes and almost 0 fps.
What are your setups people? How is your OS, and what OS do you use, configured? How old is your rig, because i used to run eve fine in my older machine.
Bellow as i said, some screens to show what i meen. ( and yes after someone droped the DD all hell broke loose no miracles there for anyone )

The lag is happening to me no matter where I am. It's been getting worse since the patch. In station, in mission, doesn't matter. It's getting unbearable. It was so bad yesterday that I actually entertained thoughts of not playing until the next patch.
And my local averages between 1-4 players during my online time.

Big time drop in FPS since the trinity patch where it wasn't a problem before. In view of planets/moons sounds right but I haven't checked this. I do know the lag continues while in warp and at my destination. It also appears to contribute to an occasional out of the blue system reboot.
If I alt-return the lag disappears and my FPS returns to what is normal for me. == Support fixing the EVE UI |

Recon 1 of 3 (2nd level mission) with Guristas results in about a minute of frozen screen / FPS of 0 for a minute when they lock on and fire missiles. Can result in ship loss. I hope this fix eases this issue as well...

Have you folks tried out runing eve with minimal graphics loaded and started climbing up the graphical options until you reach the problem?
Like starting in classic - > min / med / high options with log server on and taking screens, then proceeding to Premium ( in case everything goes well in classic ) , and repeating the process?
Maybe its some graphical option that is got screwed over the new patch.
Btw how many of you play with sound on? And if so what soundcard do you have? _____________________________________ I am the destroyer of worlds and the also the cokie thief. |

What about running 2 clients and having one crash inevitably after some period of time? I know some other people have this issue, is this due to a memory leak? It is impossible to run 2 clients at the same time now.

Just putting my name in this list as I'm with serious problems with FPS, sometimes freezing the screen for 20-30 seconds (mostly during missions where NPC BCs and destroyers start shooting my ship - no problems if there are only BS, cruisers or frigs).
I'm running classic graphics cuz with premium I can't run more than 1 account, and doing that since Trinity was deployed and I saw the huge FPS drops with multiple accounts using premium. Now, even using classic, I'm getting these intense FPS drops, reaching 0 (zero) FPS (meaning freezings, OFC).
No signature here, only the bright light of a ship exploding right in front of me... Ohhh, wait, I'm in a pod!! It was my ship!!! |

That reminds me, my friend has a low-end PC, and after his trial ended he decided that he wouldn't buy another month. His reason was that the game just didn't run well at all on his PC, even on Classic (extremely low fps, sputtering, and sometimes complete freezes and DC's during fights). I assumed that his PC just just too crappy. I never knew that the patch effected Classic too. C'mon CCP your loosing business because of this. =/

10:1 odds a fix isn't going to happen until after 4/13/08. I expect they'll wait to see if all the stuff that's supposed to get removed by the item tracker prog gets removed or causes eve to spontaneously explode.
Makes me cry, because I've sat almost a full month without much I can do until they fix it. Sure, I could throw money at the problem and get a completely new computer, but I'm not that rich that I can do it every time the coders break something.
I've got a corp to run, an alliance to contribute to, and fleets to lead to their doom, all of which I'm not right now because of this. I've got like 2 systems in the entire game I've found I can somewhat manage to be in without wanting to stab myself and all I can do is kill rats in them. Wanna see the reach of my desperation for game play? I nearly opened a WoW account last week because I was so bored... (I should mention, to top off this month's worth of not playing eve, my xbox 360 burnt out its video card... So now I have to contact Microsoft and send it off to get fixed as well......)

Some of us get lag because our PC spec's differ from those that the game was designed to run on. Some of us experiance jittery graphics and low FPS for the same reason, and the rest suffer from both because CCP can't cater for absolutely every possible problem that may or may not arise from patches.
They know there are issues, they ARE working on them. How do I know this? Do I have friends in CCP? No. I know this because WE are the ones who keep them gainfully employed and as such they will want to keep us happy and keep us playing.

I almost never read the forums. I just found this, and I'm glad I'm not the only one with this problem.
I running XP Pro on 2.2GHz Merom with 3GB RAM and 7200rpm HDD. Graphics is the Intel X3100 (yeah yeah I know) but Classic should play just fine (as HL2 does).
In fact with Trinity 1.0 Classic I was averaging about 30fps and dropping to 15fps with spacedust/fog. Post- 1.1 Boost Patch, in normal space I'm now averaging about 15fps and it turns into a slideshow when I'm in a fog/dust filled deadspace. I haven't tried reinstalling the game yet but that'll be a last resort since I don't want to lose my chat settings etc.

Psst... it's not our settings dood, it's the rendering of the moons and/or planets. Check this post and this post out. Either way, the client has been unplayable since last month and I'm getting a little annoyed at paying for 3 subscriptions to keep skills going until they patch it.

Come guys.. what's this ? 12 pages of about 75% of the people here state they have poor FPS, choppy game play, this list goes on ..
That 75% don't even post there computer system info. When is the last time you cleared all that **** from your 1GB hard drive, defraged your computer, updated your drivers, again the list goes on. That's not CCP fault.
While I admit CCP have alot of things to deal with, you can't expect them to keep improving Eve, adding patches, add-ons etc.. and the program to take up the same amount of ram, HD and resources. In the PC gaming world, this is how its been since PCs have come out.
Yep bash me all you want, but over the last year I hear people on TS complain about the same problems as in this thread. So just me been curious i'd ask them what kinda computer there playing eve on... "ahhhh errr well I think we bought the computer in 2001, I think its a 486, with a celeron cpu or something".
But yet they expect to get optimal performance and everything EVE has to offer..
PC games are a hobby for me, and just like most hobbies they have a cost. Your going to spend several hours playing Eve a week, no reason to not invest into a gaming PC, or upgrade your computer if you can. Heck even a clean install of windows can work with updated drivers.
With Max settings I get outside the station 110 fps, in a battle average 60-70fps easy.

I run the updated client on a very powerful computer, a Quad core 9650 watercooled & overclocked to 4GHz with a 8800GTX water cooled graphics card. What is the significance of this. I will tell you-temperature. Since the 1.2 update the temperature of my entire system has risen by 5 degrees celcius-this is a massive increase for a water cooled system. I now see jagged artifacts around normally straight lines on the station structures in space. Something has happened to the graphics with the patch & if it is noticeable on a state of the art computer I pity the guys & girls forced to run the client on lesser hardware.
The issue I dint like about Eve is that you cant go back to an earlier client which means that if there is a wide issue you cant go back to a client which proved stable. I have not noticed a performance hit because of the power of my hardware but I'm certain the new patch has put the hardware under increased pressure & that is not good for everybody.

I run the premium graphics at high definition resolution and get never less than 50fps... WTF are you people talking about??? I do get a 2sec freeze when I am coming out of warp to a base or stargate with or without anybody there and when I'm undocking from a base but I believe it's just an effort to make sure my ship/character placement remains consistent as I move to and from content servers or something... I never lag in this game... ever... it's freaking awesome... unplayable FPS? That sounds bizarre and ridiculous... I've never ever experienced anything like that but I'm a brand new player just started March 13th or so. I'd reevaluate my rig if I were you people. Or maybe you could get a geek squad geek to go look at how jacked up your OS is from your abuse and why your devices don't communicate well to games taking advantage of DX9 or some such nonsense and then overcharge you for the idiot FIXEVERYTHINGIM2LAZYTOFIGUREITOUT reinstall of Windows or some stupid crap so you can play the game normally (as I do) I dunno... Very weird all the bitshing about something I don't experience AT ALL in the game and so I'm being kind of an ass here obviously (I know!) but it's cuz I'm certain that 90% of the ppl in here aren't near as computer literate as they think that they are and half the issue is prolly due to your incompetence in regards to your OS and hardware setup... I mean I have a pretty average or slightly above average computer and I can run this 5 yr old game like a knife through warm butter. I'm an IT professional and networking dude so maybe it's cuz I know how to keep my computer inline with changing software demands or something like I don't delete files when I don't know what they are and I don't do something to my PC unless I know wtf I'm doing? Could be... I have an idea... do like the rest of the monkeys and just play idiot (cater to the lowest common denominator) console games so you don't have to worry about PC games which will always be better than console games... if you don't think so you are one of those monkeys and should go save yourself some stress and sell your PC games now <---*warning* this rant contains gross simplifications included and relied on in order to make a point that no one but game developers might appreciate in this string *discretion advised*
Hi,
you make interesting observations. I am also an IT professional with a lot of experience & come from a customer focused IT enviroment. There are just too many posts on this issue to be a problem with everbodies computer. The most pertinent observation which people are making is that there computers ran fine before the patch. If the client ran fine before the patch then it is not a maintenance or low hardware performance issue. The sheer number of people posting rings an alarm bell that something is not quite right so we should not be so judgemental or make comments like WTF. We all pay CCP for the right to play this amazing game & it is right & proper to alert CCP to a potential issue. |

This is all very odd, after the Trinity 1.1 patch I had no issues with fps at all, the numbers had not changed since the major Trinity patch.
I was getting about 25-35 fps on two windowed accounts with the classic client in even the largest lvl4 missions, which I found perfectly acceptable.
However, since the 1.2 patch I am now getting under 10 fps in the same missions. The only thing I have noticed is that wreck's now "twinkle" more than I remember and that once the wrecks are cleared the fps picks back up.
Intel P4 820 dual core 3 GB RAM Win Xp Pro Nvidia 7600 GT with latest Nvidia drivers
I can quite honestly say that this has ONLY happened since Tuesdays patch.
Does anyone have any suggestions ?

I sometimes get FPS drops when I have shadows on and place the camera at a certain angle in space, usually near a stargate/planet. The FPS will drop from around 100 to less than 20, if I move the camera 1 degree to anywhere, the FPS will jump back to 100, if I move the camera back, the FPS drops again.
Anyone else have the same issue?

I have found eve very unstable running 2 clients since 1.2. I can barely run 2 clients simultaneously while in revelations I could run 3 (all windowed)
Sometimes running 2 windowed clients runs fairly well, others I get 1 client at 35+ fps the other at 3... Shut them both down restart and I may get whichever is the active window at 60... Got Windows errors at least half a dozen times last night, running premium gfx, tonight I am going to try running classic, such a shame.
I have had a couple of cases where EVE locks up the whole pc, my screen goes all screwy and the only way to fix is to hardboot.

Originally by: Fortune X Edited by: Fortune X on 17/04/2008 17:25:38 Help me! In Eve Premium, my fps stays within 40 to 80 and bounces to 7 about every 10 seconds. I know many blame the patch, but in my case is there anything i can do that might help smooth it out a bit? maybe disable some settings or something... My laptop setup is: 2.412ghz AMD Turion(tm) 64 ML-44 2x 1gb DDR ram PC3200 (200 MHz) GeForce Go 7900 GS 256mb.
thanks in advance.
Update: The EXACT same things happen when i run eve in classic. The fps stays at 80+ and regularly dips down to about 5-7, this happens every 5-10 seconds. FPS dips more frequently when in missions.

Bump.
CCP, Could we get an update on this issue please? Alot of us are still having lots of problems with the new client since Trinity 1.1 patch which was over a month ago now.
Thanks!
