I realize recent graphics upgrades made problems for Gallente ships and they needed to be changed, but the new style look makes them look like a hunk of painted plastic rather than a metal starship. As a result they kind of look cheap and boring.

Is that going to be their permanent look? Or are there more improvements coming?

They look great to me, just like polished metal. Except maybe the Creo Drone ships need to be changed back the color they were before. Remember CCP is going to add the stupid dirt effect later also.

I think partly it's the lack of contrast on the hull. it's mono-tone except in the skin-specific colored areas.

If you look at the current megathron model on Tranquility, there's grays and other darker colors mixed in on various parts of the hull in addition to the specific faction colors, whereas the new version is all one base color + faction colors.

as i understand it the looks are not final. the new rendering doesn't look everywhere equally good so ccp have revisit all ships, ship by ship in the next few patches and tweak the materials.

how to fix eve: 1) remove ECM 2) rename dampeners to ECM 3) add new anti-drone ewar for caldari 4) give offgrid boosters ongrid combat value

About what changes from TQ to Sissy are you talking about?

As we havent put the V5++ on Sissy there shouldnt be any.

Meant PBR.

I noticed that If you load up a Megathron/Moros/Talos on TQ right now, it's vastly different than the megatron/Moros/Talos on Sisi. I don't know if those versions on Sisi are going to transfer over to TQ or not. I'm just trying to point out some feedback for them in case they were going to :)

Thats looks like you have different Grafic Settings between Sisi and TQ?
TQ looks like High, Sisi like Medium Texture settings, can you check that?

This isn't new, but I also think that some of the Gallente ships look like they have pressed metal parts, but the relative low texture quality makes them look like toys. As a specific example, the thrusters on the new Exquoror just look awful on my machine.

DX 11, highest quality settings, all effects on.

Gnadolin is right it looks like your shader quality setting is not set to high on Sissy!

So that's what the "High" shader setting looks like...

I am currently away, traveling through time and will be returning last week.
