My biggest gripe is that EvE in windowed mode now dominates over all other programs. Nothing can be moved on top, browsers, team-speak, not even the damn launcher itself. Seriously, It's already ****ing me off big time. Anyone know a solution??


what UI scaling are you using? On 90% they are really bad.


We are aware of issues at 90% UI Scaling and we are looking at better ways to handle this.
The issue is with UI Scaling and not the new icons.

Glad to see you shipped it anyway.

Can't even get the damn game to load, it's completely unplayable for me now. So once again CCP fixed **** that wasn't broken & only ended up breaking **** that didn't need to be fixed to begin with. As a result, I can't even get logged into the ******* game to see these new changes. Nice work CCP.

Especially for the ship overview icons i would add some details like.
1 crossing line for a frigate
2 crossing lines for a cruiser
2 for BC .... and so on

plus a letter which describes the funtion like E for a e-war frigate or cruiser, B for black ops. C for commandship, C for covert ops frigate.
This is where the lines differs because now we know ship hull and funtion.

So in space: look at the lines of the icon, read the letter and within a second you know what ship- hull and role it has :)

The new textures have much more definition, well done CPP.


I can't see any anomalies or unidentified Wormhole in a system that has a Jove Observatory.

Hi,

Despite people's complaints, the new overview icons are a step on the right direction. Being able to differentiate between ship types at a glance is key during a fight. And lets face it, the old square icons didn't have defining characteristics besides their size. And it wasn't as easy to determine what ship size it was if no other ships were around to compare their size to; and you still wouldn't know their role on top of that.

That being said... the icons are hard to identify with the UI scale at 90% as mentioned already. Maybe it would be nice to give us an overview row height setting we could adjust to increase font and icon size per row on the overview w/o having to scale our UI/resolution for every UI element?

Cheers,
Wilj0

Was at 100% UI with the problem. Tried shifting down to 90% and the problem still persists. I'm happy that you are aware of the problem, and will just wait for a solution. Big smile

I don't know what all these new icons mean.

I don't see why I should have to learn them after using the old ones with no problems for 10 years. Roll

Can we have a fallback to the old overview symbols?

You shouldn't, this is a completely unnecessary patch that could easily have been done without.

The we don't like the new icons seems like a rehash of the we dont like jump changes argument. A lot of hupla about nothing.

This has been the case long before Carnyx, and is by design.
Drones will never take an action that causes their owner to get a crimewatch flag unless the owner explicitly instructs them to. Basically going flashy is cool, going flashy without any choice in the matter is not.

So CCP should just stop changing ? Let's roll back everything to year one.

hardly a hupla about nothing when CCP have admitted there are issues with them.
