I've mentioned this in feedback sections over the last couple of weeks multiple times, multiple changes to PBR have come through with no fix to this even though you were listetning to other feedback or concerns about the PBR changes, and so I figured I would keep heckling because I'd hate to see flaws in the release to TQ. The Dragoon, one of the prettiest ships in EVE, has graphical problems in the new PBR:

Zoom in and look closely at the engravings on the nose, specifically the left panel. It looks really terribly glitched with random black pixels all over the place.







Also, while on this topic, a minor thing that just peeves me real bad is the drone bays on the side of the Stratios, again a newer ship that is some of the game's best eye-candy, also look a bit shoddy and probably wouldn't take much time to fix in terms of making it so there isn't just this black void visible inside the model through a bit of airbrushing over something in order to make it suitably black behind the force-field like before:

That second issue is already there on TQ rather than being new, but is far more noticeable after the changes that increase the reflections on the surfaces inside the bay. However, that latter issue is far more minor, so w/e. Other than that I would like to commend CCP on all they've been doing. Some of the stuff currently on Sisi is rough around the edges, but you have clearly been responding to feedback and getting new builds out pretty much daily with great ideas in them, so thanks/congrats, etc keep up the good work...

m8, those images look fine. The Dragoon engravings appear to have a sun-burst at the top without having to zoom in. Stratios has a nice environmentally shielded drone bay.

dude actually look at the dragoon closely on Sisi and you will see what I mean. it has tons of black pixels all over it totally randomly and looks terribad and glitched. The left panel in that pic, zoomed in, you can see it, but if you actually grab one in game it will be obvious what I mean.

We're looking at a change that might help with this issue in the near future. Stay tuned.

Great! If you guys are on it then I am more than satisfied! I just wanted to make sure it didn't fall through the cracks in the rush for launch day! Keep up the great work!
