There was beautiful demo with nVidia on tessellation at the 2012 FanFest and what it could do for lots of in game assets with very little to no impact.

Then ..... nothing. [insert crickets sounds here]

I've even asked for a comment in this thread and others to try to see if tessellation was ever on any distant game plan for CCP or if it was just a fancy demo to provide content to the fan fest.

CPP ... is tessellation on any Eve online road map ?

tessellation + higher res maps = Shocked

I think I remember a comment saying that they scratched that. Don't know where that was, though, and if it's true. But I wouldn't hold my breath at least.

Tip for everyone still posting in this thread... at the top of this screen there's a blue dev post button. It'll take you to the first one. Then click the blue dev tag in their portrait. Click through all of them until you get to the last one and actually understand why this thread is obsolete. (tl;dr because EVE is pretty much unique in gaming, high res texture packs won't work for EVE. They're going to have to invent a brand new technology from scratch, which is a multi year project they are working on.)

Maxim 6. If violence wasn’t your last resort, you failed to resort to enough of it.

I'm not good with just believing things, especially if it's a dev saying that something won't work. But even if they would have to reinvent the wheel and it would take years - so what? Everything with CCP is a multi year project for some reason, and those "projects" get forgotten more often than not. Let's make sure they don't forget.

WANT!

When you don't know the difference between there, their, and they're, you come across as being so uneducated that your viewpoint can be safely dismissed. The literate is unlikely to learn much from the illiterate.

Can't be arsed to check when exactly I said this, but I still want this after several years of waiting for it. How has the tech worked out on the citadels? Can you now apply it to ships in quick order if it worked out fine?

Just make it happen allready! You'd think 160+ pages and this thread still living on after that many years would be a message enough to make it a top research priority...

Also, when are you going to release the tech to add textures to ships, enabling players to create their own skins? It's allready in working order judging all the skins you put out for sale these days. Greed is good and all, but the skins system was originally planned and marketed to be a player tool was it not? Hell, I'd even buy aur for being able to add textures as I wish to create my own skin, you could even make the cost per texture more expensive as a current single skin (250 Aurum or so?) And make more with intricate skin designs.

Merry Christmas as well 😊

Editted due to previously venting alcohol out of my system, makes me unreasonable at times 😘
