Thread: Disappearing/Invisible in space :/
I finished the Y-8 mining ship quest like this only able to see the stars and little target boxes. It made it more interesting flying only on instruments and trusting them. The both (group) of us managed to win, so am a proud owner of a Y-8 mining vessel. Thanks to fellow members of ERS for the help.

Landing on kasshyk seems to trigger the problem for me when I take of or try to travel especially MO on Dant I lose gfx.
Having the same problem on Bloodfin, goes in and out. I opened a ticket and it was quickly closed by CSR. The ticket said I needed to contact technical support as the ingame group couldn't help me.
Kashyyk seems to be the worst place for it.

Pretty straight forward. Sometimes in certain parts of a zone, my cockpit frame, or the entire ship if you go to third person view, will completely disappear. All the while i'd be moving forward or turning or what not. Also, when you are 'invisible', you cannot activate certain POIs in that system.
Ritha h4x. I heard he went invisible while trying to overload his ship with pearls....

Oh noes!1!!
Oh yeah, it happens to me almost all the time inKashyyyk space after launching. Hasn't happened to me in other systems... Or actually, maybe once or twice ever in other systems,but it's almost guaranteed to happen in Kashyyyk system, for me.
I can confirm this phenomenon in every system except Tatooine, since I havent been to Tat space since Publish 24. Something interesting to note in my experience with it is this....
First time I had this happen to me I had been on Kashyyyk since before publish 24 running ground quests. Got a quest on Saturday the 22nd to go to space and capture a freighter, then escort it..this is a Trandoshan slaver quest to get a weapon, starts with a NPC named Misskss. First thing i notice is that the freghter is conning white to me, so ok, mission is bugged, I will try to shoot it anyway, I cant hit it..get the friendly fire alarm. Also trying to destroy its escort, they kept disappearing and reappearing, none of my waypoints worked when things disappeared, similar problems to what everyone else is having. So I land on Kashyyyk, logout for 10 minutes or so, log back in try the quest again...exactly the same problem.
I abort my mission by hypering to Corellia, was about to land, but I DID NOT land, went instead to Kessel to help a friend with master missions. I am a privateer flying in my Heavy Scyk by the way.
I hyper to Dathomir to go to last nav station...Dathomir system was completely haywire...nothing worked at all..I had to autopilot to last nav station because the waypoints didnt work and I could see nothing but stars. Last Nav station did not even render at all until I was within 500 m of it and commed it to go to Kessel, and then only half of it rendered.
I get to Kessel, all kinds of issues with NPC ships and my lasers disappearing. I experience a PC crash (unrelated to anything that is going on here...my PC sometimes crashes when I am flying in space in SWG, only time it happens, but it predates pub. 24, so this problem is related to my machine). So I re-boot and log back in, Kessel is still borked, We finish the kill 30 enemies in Kessel, my buddy heads to Naboo to get the vette mission (we are imperial). The Imperial Star Ravager is in system and we want the rebel vette to spawn, so being the only privateer I leave the group, head to Corellia to get my Rhykzerk...I landed and switched ships mind you....relaunched, ran all my droid programs (all 4 lvl 3 overloads) and went back to Kessel. From this point on I did not have a single issue with rendering. I wasted the Imperial Vette, the group took out the Rebel vette, we then all went to Kashyyyk space to get a tier5 duty mission for fun. I even experienced another PC crash and rebooted, still no rendering problems.
My point/concern here is that launching from Kashyyyk might cause this problem, as once I landed on Corellia and re-launched I did not have a problem. Everyone who experiences this issue ought to try to remember where they launched from.
I'm having same problem in Kash space just 5 min ago.... tried to figure out how to get some medical supplies from some pirates without killing the transport, and "poof"! no frame, no ships, no Space Station either! And im still trying to figure out how to get the supplies!
This is a very sad time... Lets have a moment of silence for the Invisible ships and Space stations!

We are working on a fix for the disappearing/invisible in space as well as on the ground.
Are you by any chance working on the windows problem in some of the ships, too? It's impossible to fly in the first person perspective on some POBships because of it.
