EVE Information Portal

For your info, the issue is client side. I have tested the unified inventory on 2 different machines.

on a low end computer (lets say, a laptop that is aprox 3 years old by now) the inventory really lacks performace for viewing large containers, moving a large amount of items, trading items, loading the main inventory screen (I have mentioned this in a previous post and I don't like to post a link since I am lazy)

If you are using a high end computer (lets say, I7 920 bla with a lot of specs), you will noticed that the inventory screen does not lag that much.

If your developers are all running a high end cpu (which I think this is the case), improvements wouldn't really matter much imho since a developer on a high end CPU wouldn't notice a fraction of a millisecond by making changes.

There are some things that apparently constantly refresh / check / whatever the items in the UI making it sluggish as hell. With the previous inventory system this was never the case.

Dear Sir,
I'd like to subscribe to your news letter and receive regular updates on this topic.

Nice CCP!!!!

Bigger updates is a good thing to do, and I bet all industrial players and Industrial killers are hoping for that promised INDUSTRIAL update, with comets, planetary rings with T2 Materials, and maybe some "tesselation". Also maybe some POS revamps, and some ships balancing...

Although don't forget about the dev blogs we all love them, and we like to have this feeling of "Nice things are coming, I will never stop playing EVE" !!!

You're right. It's not like we pay them or anything. I shouldn't really expect working features from a free to play game I guess.

The main thing to remember is that this is the right direction. Yes, they messed up the release a bit, it wasn't ready and they should have known that. However the old inventory system is pretty terrible, so once they get the issues and limitations with the new system worked out, it will be a net gain, and thats good for everyone.

Sure as hell beats being completely ignored for 2 years. The interface as a whole is pretty horrendous, so I am VERY pleased that they are working on it.

The new system is probably also easier to maintain and expand on internally, so hopefully it will set the stage for other improvements like ACL's for rights management of containers/hangers/arrays, and eventually a POS redo.

No, it wasn't.

It wasn't pretty, and yes it was clunky, especially when moving lots of objects, but it was functional

Being functional is very, very important.

This current version of UI is an absolute pain to work with for day to day things due to the fact it doesn't support multiple windows, it's rather non-functional in my eyes.

To me, the perfect happy medium is using the Unified Inventory and it's sidebar of goodness, with having old style windows for the ship hanger in station, wrecks, ship cargo hold and other ship bays.

a crap ton of tabs is cool, a list however is an abomination!

rofl

Perforce?
Stackless Python?
Windows Server?
SCRUM?

Is there ANY other company with this combination? :P
Hehe, i think you are doing great, i dont know how it must be like to work with 9 year old code.

Do problems like this mess up your Scrum Sprints?

Hey CCP Soundwave (or any other CCP wants to try),

When I drop item in to another Corperation Corperation Hanager Array, in say the first division it just gives me this error "You have been denied access for the following reason: This office does not belong to your corporation." Yes it is another Corporation PoS structured but before the new UI system we could still drop in. The function needs to be restored or improved.

I keep missing the thread shift and these seems to be on deaf ear.

I notice that wreck windows (if you set them as separate) still don't close automatically once looted and remain as a replicated inventory window. Is that going to go?

I would suggest that the inventory window has a setting button (much like the overview settings) that can be configured with what they show per window, states, containers, cost, icons or list view, etc etc,

If you're resolved to keeping unifubared inventory then maybe providing us with a tool such as that, we can tweak it to how we want to use it so you don't have to go down the one size fits all route....

By the way Soundwave, I know I come across as a moaning git about unifubared. My opinion is that it was never ready for release, it still isn't, the actual design concept is flawed at a structural level and I'll never, ever like it as much as the old one. The old one worked and wasn't broken. I'm British, moaning is a sport here. I am still going to jab at you with pointy sticks when I think you've screwed up and should try again

That said, I appreciate that you guys are trying to fix it and that you in particular seem to be actively working on it. I'm confident you'll get it working to a point where I don't want to throw my mouse at the screen any more. It's just that the game has been for me at least, virtually unplayable since Inferno came out because of this debacle. I usually log on 10 to 16 hours a week, I've barely played more than 4 in the last fortnight. I've tried but after 10 minutes to check out the fixes, I've had to log off and make a cup of tea to calm down. It is getting better. I'm just frustrated that all our feedback on Sisi saying that this was going to happen if this hit TQ was totally and completely ignored.

I'm not going ask you to promise that it won't happen again but can you at least say that if enough people on Sisi tell you that something isn't ready for TQ, you actually take a little more notice next time and not be so fixated on the shiney if its not what we want?

Pretty please...
