Hi,

After I updated to the 1.2 patch my graphics seen to be completely off inside a station. The gallente station for instance doesn't have all the ambient effects that it usually has. I have tried resetting my cache and my settings all the way to low, and then all the way up to high again but it doesn't fix anything. Can anyone help me out with this or is experiencing the same issue?

My system specs:

Core i7 860 2.80 GHz
12GB DD3 RAM
Nvidia GTX 670 FTW LE

Update: I noticed that my nvidia control panel says that eve.exe doesn't support ambient occlusion.

Yeah, there is something wrong with the lighting - it's dark and dull, with a lot of specular highlights gone.

Indeed... that's exactly what it is.. couldn't quite put it into words when i wrote OP. I just saw the EVE Online FB page post something about new hangar graphics... although they added higher resolution graphics I don't think they got the lighting right. It reminds me of some old game now.. not quite 2013 graphics..

If only there was a way you could take a picture of your screen and show us what you're talking about.

Enjoying the rain today? ;)
