CHANGES

FEATURES

  • Sansha's Nation is finalizing incursions, and they are making their last preparations. Get ready!
  • The new Character Creator is now live on Tranquility, and your character would very much like to be beautified.
  • Various improvements have been made to EVE Gate, including EVE Voice Beta!
  • Extended changes and improvements to the Contracts system have been done.
  • A number of graphics improvements and updates have been added to the game.
  • The API has received numerous improvements.
  • The keyboard shortcut system in EVE has been completely revamped. There is a new layout including organized tabs, additional combat commands and new modifiers. CTRL + ALT + SHIFT + Mouse 4/5/6 are all new modifiers.
  • Upgrades to the EVE Client make it so CPUs that do not support the SSE2 instruction set will no longer be able to run EVE Online. You can see this blog for more information.

Incursions

  • CONCORD has set up a new LP store to reward players participating in Incursion.
  • New implants and capital weapons relating to Incursions are available.
  • More details on the Incursion feature and when you can expect Incursion to be enabled can be found in this blog.

Contracts

  • Details about improvements to the contracts system can be found in this dev blog by CCP Atlas.
  • You can now "copy" a contract that you have created from the contract details context menu. This will open up the "Create Contract" wizard with parameters from the copied contract prefilled in.
  • Insured ships that are put into a Courier contract will no longer have their insurance voided.
  • When you log in, you will now be notified if there are any contracts assigned to you. You can now easily jump into the contract in question.
  • Item Exchange Contracts are now the default contract type when you create a contract. They also have a new (repurposed) icon.
  • A new "Volume" column in the "Select Items" step of the Create Contract Wizard has been added. Additionally, when creating a Courier contract, the volume of selected items is summed when they are selected.
  • Damaged items can now be put into all contracts. If an item is damaged, it will be noted in the Contract Details window.
  • Contract details will now show the security level of the system(s) in question. It will also show if any system en route to the system is a different security level than the current system.
  • Contract details will now show if a station is player owned and therefore potentially unreachable.
  • Contract details will now show if a system is unreachable with your current autopilot settings.
  • Added a "Find Contracts" context menu option for plastic wrap containers to allow you to bring up the contract which the container belongs to.
  • Added a "show info" context menu option for search results containing one item.
  • Added a link to preview an item in the contract details window.
  • Loan contracts are no longer supported in the contracts system.
  • When you contract a ship with loaded charges, the charges will be removed and are placed into the ship's cargo hold instead of the hangar. If there is insufficient space in the cargo hold, the charges will placed in the hangar instead.
  • Contracts with ships in them show a "fitted" tag on each item if it is fitted on the ship rather than located in a cargo hold.
  • The create contract wizard has been simplified a bit.
  • The ignored issuers list limit has been raised from 80 to 1000. It is filtered on the client instead of the server.
  • The number of top level items in a contract has been raised from 100 to 200.
  • The contracts start page now includes the count of all contracts assigned to your corporation for all members of the corp. The corporation and your private assigned-to list counts are split up into item exchange/auction and courier, each with relevant links.
  • Labels on contracts details now show the text "You will pay" and "You will get" instead of "price," "money offered" and "offered items."
  • Want to Buy contracts now always show the requested items in a list even if there is only one item.

Graphics Improvements

  • God-rays were added to Incursion-infested systems. These can best be seen by orienting the camera so that the player's ship occludes the sun in infested systems.
  • Ship booster lensflares use the new depth buffer. This means that boosters don't cut through solid geometry any more.
  • Changes to the way suns are rendered have been made to improve performance.
  • Changes to the way the Tactical Overlay is rendered have been made to improve performance.
  • Sansha's-infested systems now have a greenish hue.
  • Depth effects were added. This was needed to make effects such as god-rays possible.
  • Fixed windowed mode in the Windows client. This makes the client appear to be in full-screen mode while staying in windowed mode. This change frees up a bit of screen real estate for users.
  • The detail shader on Sansha's capital ships has been improved, resulting in better looking capital ships.
  • "Out of memory" errors are now handled more gracefully, and more "out of memory" error messages have been added to the client.
  • A number of graphics-related memory leaks have been plugged.

Wormholes

  • Sleeper NPCs will now properly use their energy draining effects on players, which increases the difficulty of Sleeper sites in wormhole space.

EVE Gate

  • We have introduced EVE Voice integration into EVE Gate, which is in a beta state for now.
  • All of EVE Gate was localized into German and Russian, which can be switched in the Account Settings.
  • The editor for emails, biography and the like has been replaced with one less prone to making erroneous markup, making EVE mail more reliable.
  • You can now view profiles without logging in. You can show off your new fancy avatar to your friends without logging into EVE Gate.
  • The contact limit has been increased to 1024.
  • Contact labels were added to EVE Gate.
  • In place of the old contact folders, we have introduced contact labels that work just like mail labels.

  • The following features will now be up and running during downtime:
    • Login and character selection
    • Profile settings
    • Broadcasts, both on Home and profile pages
    • Character, corporation and alliance profile pages. Certain features, however, are disabled when you click them. For example, trying to add a new contact during downtime will give you an error.
    • Read-only standings shown on profile pages.

    • No longer rate limiting but will rather return cached results from the earlier call.
    • Same call, /char/WalletJournal and /corp/WalletJournal
    • Requires full API key
    • Optional inputs rowCount (to control the number of mail headers displayed) and fromID (the non-inclusive messageID to read FROM into past mails).
    • Functions much like the new mail API.
  • Calendar API
    • No longer rate limiting
  • Modified /char/UpcomingCalendarEvents
    • Returns next 50 upcoming events from characters, your corporation or alliance.
    • Requires FULL API Key
    • Cached for 57 minutes
  • Modified /char/CalendarEventAttendees
    • Returns the attendee status of events
    • Requires FULL API Key and a comma separated list of eventIDs (also supports ids as that variable name)

    • Adding char/NotificationTexts
    • Returns the body text of notifications
    • Requires FULL API Key and a comma separated list of notificationIDs as the variable ids.

Character Creator

  • A new character creation interface has been added, and Race, Bloodline and Gender are now selected using a new interface.

  • Both old and new players will be able to use the reworked EVE character customization system to create a new Avatar and Portrait.

  • We are adding support for an optional third name during the new character creation process. This is being done in order to expand the amount of available names in the EVE database and avoid having to purge older names. When you create a new character, you will put in your first two names in one box with a space between the names, and then use the second box for your third name.

  • New Characters can have a selection of education options to choose from; this dictates their starting location.

  • Current characters will have a grace period before having to commit to a new character avatar and portrait. During this grace period you can take your time before finalizing your new avatar and portrait to suit your tastes.

    Once this grace period is over all characters will be forced to create a new and updated character portrait and avatar during the login process. A final date for the end of this grace period will be announced. Stay tuned to the MOTD and news on www.eveonline.com for more information.

Macintosh

  • Players can now upgrade command centers from basic all the way up to elite without replacing their colonies.
  • Only basic command centers will be seeded on the market now; larger centers will now be purchased as upgrades via the upgrade window.
  • Extractor control units (ECUs) have been introduced on all planets. The ECUs can be built from the build menu, replacing extractors.
  • Extraction is now done by extractor heads that are installable via the ECUs.
  • ECUs also allow installation of extraction programs. Players can now create extraction programs that run up to 14 days. These automated extraction programs will harvest resources based on the settings in program creation.
  • Prior to installing an extraction program, placed extractor heads can be moved by clicking the button at the center of the extraction head. Extraction heads can be moved via drag and drop to resource hot-spots for a greater extraction amount.
  • You can set the area that your extractor heads will extract from, which will affect the length of the extraction program and amount of extraction.
  • Overlapping extractor heads from different ECU's will cause a reduction in extraction amount from each extractor head.
  • Pinned UI windows are now affected by the global window transparency settings.
  • The new ECU window will display a colored graph to indicate the deposit of each cycle.
  • The output per cycle of ECUs diminishes over time. The output is, however, variable in a way that even though it generally decreases, local "hotspots" can still occur.
  • Sounds have now been added to cover changing resource intensity and interference from other extractor heads.
  • Routing materials is now more intelligent. Processors are prioritized based on how close their hopper is to being filled. Storage pins are routed in equal amounts.
