I submitted a ticket today: 140528-008477, explaining everything I have done and still cannot see them. Yes OpenGL works but the CPU hit and graphics are unacceptable for me. I have a top end graphic card and system and the game did work BEFORE the 1.1.2 update.

@Seravi‌, may I ask what model your graphic card is and what OS are you using? If your OS and hardware supports DX11 you should not have a problem. But, if you are running Windows XP, using a graphics card that does not support DX11, or if you have your eso.exe set to XP compatibility then you will not be able to run in DX11.

It seems that @ZOS_JessicaFolsom‌ knows what the issue is so hopefully they can fix it soon.

I did test some more with OpenGL and you are right it is horrible for performance. But, I guess in a pinch someone could use that to get through a spot where they need to see ghosts.

@JasonSilverSpring, I've never had to do this before and don't know why I forgot to even look at this. I went to the eso.exe to see what compat mode it was running in as I didn't set anything. I set that to Win 7 and changed DX9 to DX11. Jury is still out on if this is going to work for me. I am crossing my fingers and toes that this works and I don't black screen crash anymore.

I've had one "unknown error" crash and in towns is a bit jerky trying to move around forcing it to run Win7 which iirc that is forcing 32 bit. Don't like how it runs in cities as the movements are jerky. Will have to see how this goes.

even dx 9 can show transparent stuff. tehre is an bug somewhere at the engine.
At dx9 thsi gosts sould be rendered by an other way.
btw.: tells you: XP is dead.
Well. It is hard to uve lowlvl esourche support these days.

So, I fixed my blobs with the switch to DX11, but like other nvidia users, I get crap performance with DX11 compared to how I was able to play pre-patch.

I spent many long sessions through beta and EA and the first month. Sometimes I was in game almost all day long. I was able to pop around to various mules for banking and all was done with little performance issues.

Now, post-patch, I am unable to play much longer than 30 minutes.

Whatever changed sucks for me. I wish I was able to get the same performance as before, I honeslty care little for how pretty the game is, I am a child of the 70's so pretty much anything looks good to me, I just want it to run cleanly.

this is same problem i am having. and as i remember, during instalation it said (now instaling dx11) so i know for a fact its not on my end. it was something that zenimax did in this last patch because i was having more then awesome performance untill this last patch. i bben here since early beta last september

i can only last about 20 - 30 minutes before i have a major crash that takes out not only eso but completely reboots my PC. im getting scared that i will end up with a worm or virus if this keeps happening.

Are you monitoring your CPU and GPU temperatures? Overheating might be causing that.

yes i am,
and NO its NOT THAT!

my computer is BRAN NEW, GOT THAT? BRAN NEW! ITS NOT HOT ITS NOT DUSTY ITS NOT NEEDING CLEANED

Wow, you really need to calm down. I was not trolling and was only trying to help, but I won't offer you any help any more.

How would I know you have been asked that question before.

I think we all agree here that something got messed up with the 1.1.2 patch and @ZOS_JessicaFolsom‌ has stated they are working on it.

I do hope you get your issues sorted out so you can get into the game and use that anger towards some monsters.

Peace.

Bonjour,

je viens du forum français.

Hello, I'm from french forum.

I don't speak good English.
I just want to say that this problem is not only for Nvidia graphic cards.

I have a Sapphire Radeon HD 6970 2GB and I also have this problem since the last update.

You can see my problem (on the French forum)

goodbye

how bout this,
from now on allow zenimax employees to answer peoples questions when it comes to technical issues and allow zenimax to openly come forward with information about other people instead of trying to point the finger of whether or not you think some one has issues.

it's not your place to point out if you (through text) think some one is angry or upset or as you say (has issues)

i do not for one second think your apology is real, nor do i think your telling the truth that you meant no insult. if you had read back through the last few pages of this thread you would know that what i stated was not me alone. many people have been crashed and had thier computer rebooted.

while you may be the greatest expert in all known issues world over in all computer techknowledgy and you may even be an expert in forums it is not your place to instruct people nor direct people on technical issues that do not involve you. this issue is between the customer and zenimax.

while zenimax does promote helping people in the forums, that would include a lack of rudeness and a direct attempt to make other forum users feel comfortable in your responce and direction as in saying something supportive that makes the person feel like your not trying to gain anger from them but rather actually trying to help.

Well I am still getting the black screen crash, crap! This is going to force me to go back to DX9 which means I CANNOT see ghost and projections. I did NOT have this issue before 1.1.2.

Well until ZOS gets this thing with inability to log into characters worked out I have reverted back to DX9. I have crashed hard twice today but both times is when everyone and their uncle could not log into their characters. So it's back to not seeing ghosts for me.

@JasonSilverSpring , Thank you! I have characters hung up in whatever has been going on all day where you cannot access them. I will give it another shot when/IF they fix this character issue most of us have right now. As it is I cannot tell if the crashes are due to the changes or the new game issues. Thanks again for all of your help!!

idk if you are a troll or honestly just trying to help but i am very sick and tired of answering that STUPID question!

I hope that you are reported repeatedly so that your posts are removed.

reported for what? i haven't broken any forum rules, nor have i broken any eso gameplay rules. and my posts deleted? why? no rules were broken.
the fact that you and several other act as a knowledge base inplace of eso technical staff is simply wrong and is the post that needs deleted. there are hundreds of different situations that may be causing problems in eso for many different people so we come here to the forums for answers from developers. you like to pretend you know eso code and technical issues and at same time insult people you pick and choose who to be nice to and who to be rude to is unacceptable. and as you said above in the quote i copied shows proof of that very thing.

interesting sidesteping with questions to avoid my realistic questions. if you strugle with my posts then perhaps try not reading them.

Odd. Because what I see is someone asking you a simple question in order to help you....

It doesn't matter if you are sick of the question. The person was not being rude to you, they were trying to help. You on the other hand were being extremely rude. You could have simply said "no, that isn't it", or simply not responded. but you chose to lash out.

Btw, a computer being "brand new" does not mean that it cannot have problems. I work in IT and see computers fresh out of the box have serious issues. Did you even check, or were you just assuming because it is new? No need to respond. I'm asking for your benefit, not mine.

The vast majority of the help you get with problems will come from the community. If you only want official responses, to each and every problem you have, you could be waiting a very long time.

To everyone else. Thanks.

The DX9/DX11 thing was the issue with the ghosting, and that part is resolved.

I am still getting the hard crashes that started after the patch, though.

@Mablung, I crash to a black screen on both monitors. The second monitor will then come back on but the primary monitor stays black and I have to close the game window because I can't see the game to exit any other way. Then behind the game is a nice pop up that my graphics driver has crashed. Before anyone says update, I have tried so many it isn't funny and so have many, many other NVIDIA users. Game ran just fine before 1.1.2 even though I had to run DX9 to make ESO and NVIDIA happy. I have memtested my system, tested the CPU, done FULL drive wipes and reinstalled the entire OS for every single driver I tried and all with the same results. I don't have ANY other programs or games on the entire system just so ZOS can't say, "Oh it has to be this or that then". ZOS says run D3D9 fine that is grand but now I cannot see the ghost/projections...blah...

Yesterday I forced eso.exe to run Win 7 and then changed D3D9 to D3D11. I had two very hard crashes that caused me to reboot the system both times. I am out of ideas.

Are you running the game in single monitor or is it displaying across 2? If 2 try running it on a single monitor in both windowed fullscreen and full screen modes.
