Activity Notifications

  • The Activity Notifications function lets you know when you have interesting activity happening on EVE Gate and EVE Forums.

  • The Notification Flag shows you how many new activities you have on EVE Gate and the forums. Clicking the flag gives you a dropdown listing your new activities and takes you straight to them. At the bottom of the notification dropdown list you find a link to your Activity Notification page where all notifications are listed by date.
  • Players will be notified of the following activities in real time:
    • When somebody posts on your wall.
    • When somebody comments on your wall post.
    • When somebody comments on a post other character has made on your wall.
    • When somebody posts a reply to a forum thread you subscribe to.

  • The API system will still accept legacy API keys for a limited amount of time.

Miscellaneous

  • The Machariel will now be animated in your station hangar view like all other ships.

Technical

  • Switching ships while docked in a station no longer causes a session change.
  • When adding or removing turrets to/from the ship, the hangar and the fitting window view wasn't updating until the next ship change or undock. This has been fixed.
  • CarbonIO has been activated on the game client. More information regarding CarbonIO and our future plans can be found here CarbonIO will continue to work on the server but will not be activated in the client during this patch but is scheduled for a future deployment.

  • The confirmation message when abandoning loot now displays the option to not show the message again for the Russian and German clients.
  • Some formatting issues in the ESC menu have been resolved for the German client.

Mac

  • Fixed an issue where NVIDIA hardware would render characters with yellow hands; this fix only affects Snow Leopard as the NVIDIA driver was fixed in Lion.
  • Optimizations to VBO (vertex buffer object) should provide a performance boost to AMD systems in some cases.
  • An issue where the Jukebox cut off the end of some songs has been substantially reduced in scope, some songs still lose a few seconds at the end though.
  • Some memory-related fixes were introduced, significantly reducing the number of crashes due to running the client in high-detail mode.
  • A workaround was implemented to circumvent a NVIDIA 9400 crash that was affecting users running OS X Lion.
