Some one was flying around yesterday saying EFT is ending soon and to start using PYFA. I dont see anything on the posts so I assume it's probably a PYFA volunteer trying to get more people to use it.

Hi,

Is there a way of having Implants saved as part of the ship configuration?

Am I missing something obvious because I have to set them back up each time...

Cheers,

I have a Tengu and a Loki set up as boosters in EFT so I can check what my stats with perfect boosts are. The mindlinks stay put even when I close the setup, EFT itself, or switch to a different one. This won't help you, but just posting to say that it doesn't happen to everyone.

There are two places to "attach" implants in EFT:

  1. If you attach the implants to a character (the Implants tab in the Character Editor), they'll stay with the character. Any time you have that character board a ship in EFT, the implants will be applied. In practice, this tends to be the most useful place to put implants, despite being slightly less obvious, since you'd have one character in EFT per jumpclone in EVE.
  2. If you attach the implants to a ship (the Boosters/Implants tab at the bottom of the main fitting screen), they'll stay with the ship. Any character that boards that ship will be assumed to be wearing those implants. To your example, attaching implants to a ship and assigning the All Level V as a pilot will allow experimentation of perfect boosting without affecting All Level V's effects on other ships.


A few notes about the above two behaviors:

  • If you have an implant assigned to a character and an implant assigned to a ship, and both implants affect the same stat, the "ship implant" will be applied and the "character implant" will be ignored. For example, if my character has a +3% PG implant, and the ship has a +1% PG implant, the fitting screen will only show a +1% increase in PG.
  • EFT does not check skill requirements for implants, regardless if they're assigned to the ship or to the character. You will not get a "red box" on the fitting screen if you attempt, for example, to use an implant that requires Cybernetics V with a character that doesn't have Cybernetics V.

Can't put Genolution Core Augmentation CA-2 implant (Christmas gift) in the set-up - combined with CA-1 gives additional 50% boost to parameters:

Traits
Slot 4
Boost intelligence by 3
Provides +1.5% CPU bonus
Provides +1.5% capacitor recharge
Implant set bonus: 50%

Tried to do a fit for a Rupture, and it states that I must have Minmatar Cruiser III to fly one (it has been changed to Cruiser I) and it shows 3 mid slots instead of the current 4... is this getting fixed? Great tool though :)

My Buddy got problems with importing fittings from EFT 2.171 to Eve.
I have 2.17 and can import all.
He gets the message "Ungültige Datei" (engl. "wrong Data").

Is my buddy too silly for importing or is it a software-problem?

The 5% damage bonus to kinetic missiles & rockets for the Corax doesn't seem to be applying (or it might be applying it to every type - not sure).


edit: aaaw - why can't I delete posts? :( I hadn't spotted the 2.17.1 build, which fixed it.

Ignore meeee!

Shouldn't the fit with T2 launchers have a higher dps? I know the faction launcher has faster base rate of fire but the cruise missile spec skill should push the T2 above the caldari one?

Oh well just wondering.

hey mates,

first of all thanks for all the hard work on eft <3

is there a way of sharing and constantly updating a fitting basis (like ally fittings?)

would be great if there would be a possibility of also including an online source of fittings, that can be updated centraly and consumed by different ppl

regards,
yek

if you use eve-mon as well, you can pull fittings thru that program from battleclinic for each ship. go under a plan for you character and find a ship; you'll see a link to battleclinic and go search thru fittings others have u/l'ed before and how other folks have "graded" them.

eft + evemon = win

For most modules descriptions are barely relevant to their ingame usage so they are intentionally omitted.

You need to get latest EFT version.

That's strange. EFT error messages are not localized and I never heard about localized API server errors. If it's some kind of OS level error then it's also unusual. Can you provide a screenshot or use Ctrl+C to copy dialog as text and paste here?

Dread Guristas and Caldari Navy Cruise Missile Launchers give ~14.3% more base DPS than T2. Cruise Missile Specialization at level 5 gives 10% faster rate of fire or ~11.1% more DPS so it's not enough to compensate higher DPS of faction variants.

Would it be possible to add a tickbox next to the character selection dropdown in the fitting window for [apply saved character implants] or something similar?

I know about applying implants directly in the lower pane of the setup window, but the tickbox for applying the implants saved on the char would be handy, or maybe a right-click option.

Thanks again for EFT.

EFT is showing my megathron should be at 200k EHP with DCII running, I barely break 100k with DCII running and YES I do have my current character selected with proper implants on EFT selected and proper modules and ship.

Any reason for this?

I also find my thorax is about 9k EHP difference in EvE than on EFT

First of all good work overall and I have to say I've enjoyed this tool for a long time now.

Only one thing keeps bugging the hell outta me, the character window seems to keep on resetting off screen to the left (some -600 smth in config.ini).

I tried editing the file manually, setting it to read-only with the correct settings, nothing works, it keeps on resetting to that corner. It's not game breaking, just extremely annoying. It's only manifested like this on one system so I don't know... Any pointers?

Thank you.

The link in the OP takes me to a downloader of "PC Video Converter" I doubt this is the correct file and I am hesitant to install it.

Please help :)

Cheers

EDIT: The alternative mirror seems to work though :)

You can open Character Editor (Ctrl+C), click on Implants button and select implants for the selected character there. It is also possible to drag and drop implants from Fitting Panel there.

If you try to edit config.ini make sure you have no EFT running. Also, if you have EFT stored in Program Files folder then you may try to move it out somewhere because Windows with UAC enabled can mess with file saving there.

Thanks for your report but as you see you're only one with such problem while there are hundreds of people downloading EFT every day so you are probably wrong identifying source of your issues.
