If I use the FXAA Post Process Injector to enhance the graphical appeal of eve will I get banned? Is this a violation of the EULA?

It depends. If it involves function hooks, then yes it violates the EULA as it is modifying EVE's executable code in memory. If it works at the driver level, then no it does not violate (EVE's) EULA, similar to how using nHancer to force FSAA + HDR was not a violation.

Basically, so long as the application does not look at or modify EVE's memory space then you are cool (and so long as it does not automate gameplay).

CCP response here is a matter of luck. Petition is the appropriate channels for your question.

Just curious, could you link to the application in question? Googling for "FXAA Post Process Injector EVE Online" leads straight back to this thread.

It depends. Is it giving you an unfair advantage over other players? If no, then it should be fine. Although i don't see why you'd need a post process injector as all the graphical option in eve are enough to make it gorgeous.

Its not about maing it gorgeous - its about removing the bits you don't care about.

1) if it is a legitimate program (ie not a bot) then CCP is not going to go ape for you posting a link to it.

2) Go back to C&P.P

Basically you are not allowed to use any software to play the game for you or modify any of the clients game's files and or infomration it receives from the server or gives to the server.

So graphical enhancers fall in none of those catagories yet.

Not empty quoting.

My rough guess is NO its not... Since it doesnt provide any kind of advantage over anyone else...
