The issue I'm having is that EFT doesnt generate .cfg files for the Astero, the Stratios nor the Nestor.

To link the fittings i had to generate xml files, i cannot send the raw text through evemail so my mates can copy paste it directly into their eft.

To get a fit as a text you don't need to open any files: there is "Copy to clipboard" command in the setup menu (one which appears when you click downward arrow to the left of the new setup button).

Regarding the files: if they would not be created you'd lose your setups. If you don't miss any (and I doubt it's possible to save OK for some while fail for others) you've probably just couldn't find those files among the rest or something.

Is there a way to save fittings with EFT? Ctrl+S doesn't seem to work and fittings disappear all the time. Sometimes certain fittings save but then others disappear entirely.
Am I doinitwrong or is there an issue with EFT not saving fits??

All the changes you do are saved automatically when you close EFT. Shutting down your PC without closing EFT first won't save anything. Other reason could be read-only access to the folder where you put EFT in.

On my Windows 7 computer the tooltip is blank. The size of the tooltip seems to be scaled properly but it's completely blank.

Start EFT with "/OldHints" switch.

Create a Hulk setup, create an Orca setup, apply fleet bonus from Orca to Hulk, multiply Hulk's ore yield by 3 (number of your hulks) ... Profit?

Please make the background on the DPS graphs black instead of light grey

The different coloured lines would show up so much more clearly. Also it'd be nice if there were a color key added to show what the lines on the DPS graphs relate to.

Is there anyway to get this download from another location? I am at work and "personal storage" is blocked.

I have a couple of questions regarding this tool. It is very frustrating.

First off, I'm wondering about the "rating" that sometimes shows up while your fitting your ship. sometimes there is a number, sometimes there is not; and it doesn't really correlate with improved stats. So I don't know what that is for.


Secondly, the whole import/export thing; it doesn't work. I saved my fittings on my home computer with the all xml option, then I bring them to work. It doesn't matter where I put the file, I cannot get xml manager to see it, let alone bring it in to EFT.


It's driving me crazy that I cannot open my setups that I saved from home.

tip:

Put the damn download on a decent fricking server for god sake. What is it with non English using these popup/adware/spyware/virus infested crappy file servers.

Jeez

Making them black will cause problems to people using dark colors for background so there is no easy solution. To figure out which graph corresponds to which ship you can click anywhere on the graph line to select it and read text below the graphs area.

Yes, descriptions are not updated but implant parameters themselves are at 25%.

It's just a 2Mb file so you can ask somebody to send it to you by mail instead of figuring out what is or isn't blocked on your side.

Rating is explained in EFT FAQ. It's not shown for actively tanked setups because it's not applicable in such case (rating in such cases isn't a fixed number but a function of incoming DPS).

If you want to move your data from one EFT copy to another look for recommended way of updating in the FAQ for explanation which files you need to copy. Of course you can move just your setups with XML but this feature intended purpose is to import and export to EVE client so it looks for XML files only there where EVE client can save them to or read from: [MyDocuments]/EVE/fittings.

Have to agree with a lot of recent posts on this thread. The two download sites for EFT are complete and utter crap. Both want me to upgrade, create account, give them my personal info, ect. Otherwise, it is absolutely impossible to get this file. Forget it. I don't need it that bad.

While i agree, eve-files was easier, the second link worked fine for me.

Load the page, press download, get redirected, file download pops up.

It didnt even have of the misleading "download now" ad links.

Cheers Gripen for the update, much appreciated.

Version 2.22.1 is out.
Changes:
- Shield Boost bonus from Siege Modules is a subject to stacking penalty now
- Weapon Upgrades skill now affect Bastion Module
- Mindlink implant descriptions were updated
- ECM Bursts can be overloaded now

- XML import was changed to be more tolerant to file syntax
- Additional attribute columns can be added to Fitting Panel now to make it easier to compare items. To do so, right click any attribute in Show Info window and check "Show on Fitting Panel". Any amount of attributes can be set to be shown but amount of additional columns is limited to seven, thus it could be possible that not every attribute will be displayed.

It seems you only - Tracking Computers and Enhancers work fine for me. Laser crystals change Optimal and not Falloff.

Think I've found a bug.

For some reason EFT doesn't calculate in the skill bonus for Transports like DST and Blockader Runners when switching between the default level 0 and level 5 skilled character or imported characters. Instead it seems to be stuck at all level 5 skills.
However, it do calculate in the skill bonus for industrials depending of skills.
And since both industrials and transport have skill bonus to cargo size you'd expect the value to change.in a smimilar manner for both types of transports.

As always: Nice work Gripen!


But where is the cargohold information? I can remember that EFT showed that kind of information in the past. Or am i simply to dumb to find it?
