Especially the Ishtar and Proteus. Both are subtly, but significantly improved, and look a bit less campy and a bit more dangerous.
Tech 3 cruisers got a skin update too? It didn't look like the Tengu did. |

It is the strangest thing but now that they are nicely textured I actually like most of the Caldari ships. I don't mind the logos on the Tier 2 ships though I should say I don't fly any of them in game. If it was a case of my favorite ship suddenly getting a big logo on it I might feel differently.
I am a bit concerned about what they might do to Amarr ships which is what I mostly fly. Just looking over most of the Gallente and Caldari sub caps it just seems as if they have finally been brought to Amarr level of quality. I hope they don't mess up Amarr ships (ie change them too much).
Just looking at the camouflaged ships in the ship viewer (since I don't own any of them) I am surprised to say that now that the quality is better the camo doesn't look so bad. Though I still hope that we will have the option to change that skin out eventually. Not a fan of the camo on the Gallente Navy Comet though. And the Hookbill looks horrible (and was formerly one of my favorite ships). It actually looks like that is a bugged texture because the Caldari Camo on the Vulture Command ship is really nice looking now.
My one (BIG) concern is that dark parts of space (systems with Nebulae far off in the distance) are a bit too dark. I don't the sky being black but a lot of the ships were basically invisible. Not sure if it is just my sucky system or if anyone else feels the same. |

Was just looking at the screenshots I took and the ships now have their correct size listed in the ship viewing window. So the Hyperion for example is listed as being 1509 m long instead of 500 m long. |

Love the new textures. I also love the logos, most of them look good, with a few exceptions like the Manticore. However, the writing could possibly be scaled down a bit? And please bring back the police light on the comet! |

The Nighthawk looks stunning with the new texture/paintjob. (But it's still stunningly useless as a pvp ship) |

CCP, please keep the classic look of the comet.
All of the navy ships don't have to look the same. I get that the navy Dominix and and Megathron are just re-skinned ships, but the comet is unique. You're taking one ship I always loved to look at and making me never want to see it again. |

CCP, was wondering if this means that none of the ships with new skins are getting redesigned in the near future?
I know that there is a new (same) Raven model in the works. However, I am holding out hope that just because the V3 textures have been applied that there is still a chance that ships like the Moa and Imicus will be redesigned. Obviously not expecting any other new hulls (aside from the new BCs) for winter, but please tell me that there is some hope for a new Imicus/helios hull. |

Could someone please provide a nice screenshot of the Rokh, Dominix and Myrmidon?
Have they also given the Tengu slight updates to be on par with the V3 ships? Is the Scorpion (& variants) on par with the more recent V3s ?
Thank you in advance. |

there WILL be custom skins in the near future. they announced it several times, and showed off a bit of it in the video blog. |

For using the word verisimilitude I think you should get a cookie or something for raising the IQ level of this thread.
I like the new like the new V3 textures and the addition of the logos looks very nice and clear.
CCP Vertex, is that a Parallax Occlusion Map shader being used on the textures, I spy as part of V3? Certainly looks like that sort of effect (Which is a great effect to have).
My feedback:
- For the Nebula, it was mentioned that it might be possible to get a 'Hi-Res' texture download separately given how wonderful they look, and that higher resolution versions exist. I sure would love to have that option for the ships as well for those who want them, as when fully zoomed in it is a shame things like the guns and logo's are sharp, while some textures blur quite badly. It's not a deal breaker, but the ships always look better zoomed out 25% or more.
- While the textures for the Vexor and it's variants look great for the rest of the ship, the front 'windows' still look distorted and very blurry, I always felt this was a shame, but now it looks even more obvious as the rest of the ship is very sharp.
- Will some of the Minmitar ships be getting more than new skins like the Phobos? I know Minmitar ships are supposed to be held together out of ear wax and gaffer tape, but there is clearly a difference between the newer Minmitar designs (Hurricane, T3 and Tornado) than say... the Typhoon, which isn't called the flying dustbin out of admiration.
Many thanks. |

Oops. I meant to say Phobos. Similar sounding and same hull size. My bad! The PHOBOS looks awesome. Darker, more metallic, with animated things on its hull. I will gladly provide screenshots as soon as I can get the time for those having trouble logging on. To summarize, Gallente and Caldari ships have darker, more contrasting skins, with Caldari getting more pronounced camo and Gallente having a teal like tint instead of hunter green. Ships have their corp manufacturer's logo on it. The lights are more pronounced as well. Overall, the effect seems to make them shinier, darker, and more dangerous looking. Sorry about the T3 confusion! (Finally, improved engines. Hyperion grille lights up instead of just the engine torch and has heat effects. |

quoted for emphasis. it'd be great if some of these windows were cleaned up (i know they used to be an issue on the domi, and it was fixed). vexor hulls need this fix as well. and probably other ships. |

also, now that I look at it, the shiny, reflective gold on the new DL gal ships looks way worse than the old gold. Mute it a bit maybe? and then maybe the decals wouldn't clash so horribly. Noooooooooooooooo. I like the decals, and I love the new gold. Get the Duvolle colours on the Deimos, stat. Hell, put them on everything. I could look at that blue and gold all day. you seriously like having "duvolle labs" written on the side of your ship? A DL could look cool. But you really think that, for example, what is happening on the front of the viator looks cool? a whole bunch of the gallente ships have branding on like 6 separate locations. look at the new eris. it must say "roden shipyards" on that thing in five goddamn different places.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO, CORPORATE BRANDING, WHAT MUST WE DO!??!?! I SHALL NO LONGER BE UNIQUE!

So the New textures are really great (especially if they will unlock ship skin tweakability) !
-> Fantastic work on the caldari textures, especially TII they look very mean and aggressive. I just looooove the new red stripes of the crane / flycatcher and so on . Altho i was hoping to see that new crow model protoype?
-> The gallente textures are very nice aswell altho a couple things are intriguing. The base grey color of TI gallente ships has a tendency to turn very slightly pinkish (in minmatar hangar and preview window for example) which is very disturbing with the dark turquoise (the gallente bluish green). fondamentaly not a big deal.
-> Another thing: duvolle and roden colors are both good but perhaps a bit too similar? Roden used to be pitch black and shiny dark red? The new duvole labs colors is fantastic and seriously will make me fly my astarte again! Creodron color is a bit strange cuz honnestly i cant really tell what color it is? but it still looks nice.
To sum up the new textures are fantastic and i cant wait to see more ships done that way! But not until CCP Soundwave gets some sleep
- >>> A slight (perhaps unrelated) concern is the purple engine effect for some gallente ships (both TII and TI). I do hope this is a placeholder effect and that gallente will keep their actual engine effects? Because purple by itself is a terrible color but combined with the TII gallente ships brownish colors it becomes unbearably ugly. Said thruster effects are also sometimes very predominant over the blue glow of the engine's heat map (brutix for example). That's a shame cuz the blue glow is awesome like, for example, on the hyperion.
Great work CCP on both doing this and keeping us updated daily!
PS: an idea for ship skins would be to allow us to freely tweak the parameters in the shaders (basic colors) but use Nex store for special skins (camo, stripes, giant numbers, flames, quafe ads etc...) ... just a thought...
PSs: The new shade effects are impressive! So smooth!

Now if you had a separate "Police" issue Comet, OK fine... but if it will only be the Navy Comet... at least keep the blinky blue :(
It has a blinky green light!
It is green. But, it is NOT blinky. Unless you're somehow seeing something I'm not, and I have all textures and graphics turned to Max settings for my game.
Also, there used to be a blinking blue light on either side of the hull on the front, toward the bottom. They are now no longer there. |

I think that is just a bug. I assume they will get the Lai Dai label that is on the Manticore. |
