Not sure what to do about this... I'm getting a very wierd red flashing on top of Ships, Stations and sometimes planets. Top of the line Radeon 6900 here with 4GB of Video Ram, with up to date drivers (I updated them about 2 weeks ago).
I can't even show you though... because it doesn't show up in a screenshot (they look normal). When I alt-tab and come back it goes away... but then when I change systems it comes back.
Any ideas? |

Okay good to know it's not just me... I guess. I found that alt-tabbing and coming back fixes it 100% of the time. Until I dock/undock, or jump to another system. |

I've got this too
5870 crossfire
It doesn't show up in screenshots and it used to do it to the old login background when you pressed esc. Now the problem is it isn't doing it in the new login background but it's all in game and it makes it unplayable.
This is obviously a game issue and not a PC one and it done it after I installed a fresh copy of windows 7 too. |

Got this too. Dual 1GB 5670 cards. Used to do on old login too, now only doing it in game.
Game's pretty much unplayable like this.

Setting shaders to medium did make it playable for me.
Interesting that only people with the very high end graphics cards have this problem. |

Aye, shaders to Med worked.

Cant believe only us five are using crossfire and trying to use max shader setting. Anybody else using crossfire and max shader quality without the red mess problem? Like give us some details, catalyst version and stuff.

Well the current version is catalyst 11.11 which I am using. If your using 11.10 or something and ther working please report back, not really in the mood for trawling through different driver versions to find one that works. |

Installed the latest drivers right from ATI last night after this happened, had zero effect fixing it. Only items that worked are ALT-TAB out and back in, or switch Shaders to Medium. |

I saw a few posts about this in other forums, but they got locked because Moderators said people were duplicate reporting an issue... Not sure exactly where we should report this. I filed a bug, and they would like me to attach a dxdiag to it.. so I'll do that when i get home I guess. I'd suggest everyone file a petition or bug about it. |

Even though SOE suck their community guy over on Planetside always responded to every thread and passed it on to the developers and then came back with a response. CCP on the other hand never responded to the old login screen issue and they wont to this. People say how great they are and they listen but do they ****, as worse as blizzard, Activision and EAs customer service.
Like yeh I'm making a new thread because the one you linked me to, the issue will get drowned out by all the other peoples issues. I'm going to keep making threads until the problem is fixed or my now cancelled subscription runs out because I paid to be able to play the frigging game.

I have a similar issue as well with 6970s in crossfire using 11.11 drivers. It looks a little different though; same colour but everything is centered around my ship (which makes it worse). It almost looks like the light rays as viewed from my ship are red and opaque.
Hopefully there will be a fix soon; I'll try setting my textures at medium in the mean time. |

Check disabling Crossfire please, and if you have it active, Catalyst A.I. as well (or set it to the "Quality" setting). Try having every other setting in the driver on "Application Controlled" as well, wherever possible.
The fact that this does not seem to appear on screenshots at all suggests that this is rooted somewhere within the driver. Eventually, if you have been updating drivers over a while, try a clean install of the drivers, meaning completely wiping the current driver and any residue of older versions using a driver cleaner tool of your choice (simply uninstalling still tends to leave traces, sadly) before reinstalling.

The red stuff is gone after turning off xfire, everything else was already set to application controlled, cat ai set to quality. Only had 1 driver version installed before this new one (11.11). |

I am also having the same issue.
I have two crossfired HD 5800s. I just updated to the 11.11 drivers hoping to fix it, and it didn't work.
Another player suggested changing the Presentation Interval under display settings in game. It stops the issue for me as long as I remain in the current system/station/playfield/etc... But as soon as I change to another it returns. It doesn't matter what I set the PI to, all that seems to matter is that I change it. |

I tried a clean wipe of the drivers as GM Karidor suggested. While it did speed up my computer a little (which is nice), it did not solve the issue. His suggested work around with disabling CrossfireX was successful for me as it was for Zenjin Vonavi. I do hope that there will be a true solution. (Other than switching to Nvidia.) |
