I can't select objects in space while coming out of warp. For things like caps it's a solid 15 - 20 seconds of chasing jiggling icons around with the mouse. Sometimes there are icons I don't have added to overview. If you make icon shake toggle-able, I'd make use of it.

This is an option in your game settings menu, or your graphics menu. either or w/e.

Hit esc in game and go find it. then untick it.

otherwise, + 10 for trolling

Eve is about Capital ships, WiS, Boobs, PI and Isk!

I should have clarified that I like the camera shake, just not the icons to go with it. Shake the scenery, stabilize the useful things.

I've turned off camera shake for as long as it's been an option, for this reason.

But this does make sense, camera shake should have never shook the UI brackets at all. Idk if I would turn it back on if this idea was used, but at least it would be an option.

So +1

I would like to have the camera shake if it didn't shake my UI......
split the 'toggle shake' into 'toggle image shake' and 'toggle UI shake', might be fun having the UI shake instead of the scenery......

For posting an idea into F&I: come up with idea, try and think how people could abuse this, try to fix your idea - loop the process until you can't see how it could be abused, then post to the forums to let us figure out how to abuse it..... If your idea can be abused, it [u]WILL[/u] be.

Camera shake looks awesome, especially on tape. Still not using cause shaky icons.

+1, seconding this.

Makes sense, though I suspect it would require re-tooling the effect to some extent. What extent is more or less the question though.

Seems like maybe something for the Little Things thread?

It also requires a distinction between form and function. Some things should retain their utility, while other things can be messed with and made to look pretty.

In the same way that CCP doesn't allow customizing the game UI or people being able to revert to older UI (I REALLY AND PISSED THEY REMOVED THE OLD NEOCOM BUTTONS), in order that everyone has "the same game experience" they really should either enforce everyone to suffer the screen shake and disable the button to disable it, or counteract the screen shake for markers like pods and stations while coming out of warp.

Don't kid yourselves. Even the dirtiest pirates from the birth of EVE have been carebears. They use alts to bring them goods at cheap prices and safely, rather than live with consequences of their in game actions on their main, from concord to prices

It reminds me of my iPhone icons when I want to delete something. They shake in their boots...
