When you click the picture to get the 3d model, that is correct. However, the 2d image is still set to the old models. I really noticed it with the Ibis.

You probably need to clear your cache to see it. The images for everything with a 3D model are generated on the client IIRC.

That's indeed what you need to do.

In order to show info you must first link it, how do we get to see the fruits of hard CCP labor when we can't even do that to rookie ships?

All noobs are alts and therefore spies. What would be the point to be able to link super secret spy ships?

Using background programs like bots can make this happen? -cause I have no problem with 3 or 2D images and did not cleared cache.

The rookie ships aren't in the public database.

Kinda like Jove ships

Rookie ships are unpublished so they don't autolink and they can't be put in contracts. I'm reasonably sure that this is an anti-scam measure.

An anti scam measure in a game that encourage scams? I'm confused!

I bought 2 of them on contracts from a different race for 500k each. Is Rookie Ship scams such a big deal that you needed to deny them contracts access?

Because it is a great way to collect ships.

Honestly Greyscale, there is no harm in people being able to contract them... the greatest harm actually comes from you denying us the ability to autolink it... making it much harder to actually see the new rookie ships

that was the first thing I did when I logged into eve after patch day, I wanted to see the changes... I tried ti autolink a reaper, a velator, ibis,.. you know, but it didn't work... get your act together and make us able to link them

I think you should let them be linkable, at least. (I'm guessing private contracts work differently to public ones? I've contracted one recently)

I think you need to have a talk with whomever in Reykjavik keeps trying to turn EVE into Safe-and-Happy Carebear Adventure Online. Roll

(the new Ibis is such an adorable little baby Tengu, though--good job on that one [/thumbsup])

I heard also clearing your cache fixes it? Lol

Why are Rookie ships excluded from scams?

Its not fair to them. Think of their feelings, Everyone else gets to be used in a scam except them.
