Updated to Crucible, no issues and I love the new nebulas, what do I need to do to get engine trails working? I thought it was because I normally turn the graphics down a bit to get performance on my laptop, but I switched everything to high and still nothing Cry

Yea, I'm not seeing them either.

Ok. So I quit with the higher graphics settings and relaunched EVE and now I have engine trails. Happy, Happy, Joy, Joy.

If you relaunch with high settings and then turn them down once in-game, do the trails stick around?

So far as long as shader quality is medium or greater, none of the other settings seem to matter

I noticed that when I'm flying a hulk the engine trails ar no t that noticeable, yet if I'm fly say smaller ship like the rookie ship I see them a lot more.
I have also noticed that on the rookie ship that was flying around in today that it had the Gallente symbol on it.
So far the only issues that I have been having is the game freezing a little while i'm in station, not in Captain's quarters.
I'm enjoying the nebulas no it really improves the feel of the game more than the captains quarters have.
