# **Known Issues:** Gameplay: - ~~Dreadnaughts equipped with HAW torpedoes dealing lower than expected damage.~~ - Siege Module II bonus is not calculating correctly for HAW torpedoes. - Some minor inconsistencies in stacking penalties from spring balance changes. - ~~A display issue causes the high angle turret damage bonus on siege modules to appear in show-info windows as a 2% bonus instead of the correct 2x multiplier~~ - ~~Docking at Upwell structures fails in the client, if a module is primed for overheating.~~ - ~~Logging in after being disconnected can fail, if there are either any modules still running on the ship, or if a module is primed for overheating.~~ Graphics: - Lighting for hangars is very dark in DX9 - ~~Weapons are visible while being cloaked after jumping through the gate~~ - ~~Some lighting effects can be seen through the ship glass shader.~~ ---

> [@CCP\_Falcon](#): > > Lighting for hangars is very dark in DX9 Same in DX11. It looks like all adjustments were focused only around maximum client setting, because with High shader preset and High post-processing, hangars look not that dark. Once I switch post-processing off - it’s instantly darker, even on High shaders. If I switch to Medium shader preset it becomes really dark, at least in Caldari hangar. Now it is a choice between having decreased performance due to max settings or having my eyes bleed. I don’t like both and don’t want to use High shader + High PS at least for now with current performance issues with dust clouds. > **Pics comparison** > > Dx11 client > High shaders, High PS: > > ![](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/eveonline/original/3X/8/6/863f2b4f42140ee3d3748875a74893bf2b61ea59.jpeg) > > High shaders, Medium PS: > > ![](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/eveonline/original/3X/7/6/76a337c363e2db02612e01e7664b0f1583ac93dd.jpeg) > > Medium shaders, Medium PS: > > ![](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/eveonline/original/3X/7/0/701ec356c818c4ef63380c37a33c5101c10b7e54.jpeg) > > Medium shaders, Off PS: > > ![](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/eveonline/original/3X/8/8/88843e5fbd98f28b6788d40eb99f94066a347b32.jpeg) > > DX9 for comparison: > High shaders, High PS: > > ![](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/eveonline/original/3X/c/6/c63d5e2c349cc14e62d681e8ff6173788822441f.jpeg) ---

FYSA, it’s looking to not _just_ be dreadnaughts fitted with HAW Torpedos. People are reporting lower than expected damage for, at the very least, HAW autocannons as well. It’s not as big of a discrepancy as with the HAW torps though. Siege Module show info attribute text also shows the High Angle Turret Damage Bonus as “2%” when I think it should be 2x, but I think that may just be a visual bug? ---

Anybody else having issues with not docking at astras? my ship cloaked, and then nothing, couldn’t do anything and was stuck like that, this is after three gates that took 5 mins a piece to get through the jump animations… Now I know why people said don’t bother playing on patch day :-S ---

After this patch when I press Alt+Tab I don’t see the window preview. Before I could see what’s going in each window on that Alt+Tab screen without actually switching to other character. P.S. -50% DPS on Phoenix? When I saw that on the test server I thought that was an intended nerf Already prepared to quit EVE 😃 ---

It seems like it might be triggered, when a module is primed for overheating. The ship is properly docked on the server, but the client fails to show this somehow. ---
