Venta Vendita Gallente North American Euro Space Agency	Posted - 2011.01.30 04:14:00 - [31] The creator is EASY to use...maybe you like the structured hold your hand gameplay. If you were 'smart' you would see the mouse icon change to a different icon shape as you move your mouse around the face. You also see BIG whole highlighted parts of the face so I cannot see how you mess up.
Jenny Spitfire Caldari	Posted - 2011.01.30 04:34:00 - [32] I actually think the character creator is very powerful. Too bad it cannot capture full body potrait in the potrait screen but it is one of the best character creator that I have ever seen. Not even WoW's character creator can give you so much details and dimensions. Plus note is that I was commenting about after taking your own pictures, you would get the mug shots in the small squares on the left and you could not see anything much after that. On clicking finalise, it enters the game screen and if your picture is not right, you will not know it until it is too late because you can see mistakes on the forums. With the new patch, the creator so much better because it actually shows you a large preview of your potrait before committing the finalisation. How awesome is CCP on that? They go all out just for their players. --------- The making of the new Jenny Spitfire
Blasterella Amarr	Posted - 2011.01.30 04:38:00 - [33] No, the creator is not easy to use. On my machine, the head is blinking lit and unlit at a rate just right to cause epilepsy. When I try to capture, sometimes the thumb image appears lit. It is dark more than lit, and it's darker in the tool than in the image (captured from the character chooser in the Eve login screen). For this one, after >100 tries, I gave up, and redid it. I reasoned that if only the torso was lit, I would make a portrait emphasizing the torso. On my machine, and in the creation screens, here is what the portrait looks like 60-70% of the time: --- After having posted the rant in the OP, I am slightly mollified because I now know I don't really have to keep trying several hundred times to get a snapshot where the face isn't dark like I did on my main ... CCP has a LOT to learn about usability.

Are you creator settings on low or max? whats your comp specs? above portrait looks like its an old portrait not from the new creator.

Not even WoW's character creator can give you so much details and dimensions. Well Jenny, I like the character creator but it doesn't hold a candle to even some older games out there. I don't play any other MMOs so I can't say much there, but have a look at TES4 Oblivion, DAO, the Mass Effect duo, the Fallout games and many others and you'll see just how basic this one is. XX

XX Oblivion. You mean the game where you instinctively recoil in horror anytime someone talks to you? Face it: CCP has set the bar for character creators. Also, you would need a lot of sliders to really get the same effect. -Liang -- Eve Forum ***** Extraordinaire On Twitter
Bloody Mary Avada Amarr	Posted - 2011.01.30 04:58:00 - [37] I don't mind the character creator.. Sometimes those animated movements can give a nice pose.. What I'm upset is that now they force me to wear a shirt.. Does my style offend someone? If so too bad for them hahaaa.. Boys whatcha lookn at? Boyz watcha lookn at?

Sig Sour	Posted - 2011.01.30 05:59:00 - [40] Nothing touches Minecrafts character creator!
Gravemind GER Caldari Community for Justice Majesta Empire	Posted - 2011.01.30 06:02:00 - [41] the new character creator is the new way to sort out the kids/stupid people who will leave eve after their trial anyway because they dont understand how this game works . U SIR ARE A SPAI!

A fanboi will always be a fanboi.
Vabjekf Caldari	Posted - 2011.01.30 08:17:00 - [43] I hate sliders. This creator is nicer than sliders.
Aloe Cloveris The Greater Goon	Posted - 2011.01.30 08:27:00 - [44] Originally by: Blasterella ... uses the phrase "epic fail", unironically ... Haha, w/e, tl;dr ... I was busy gettin' jiggy with it. It's still cool to use that timeless phrase, right? Welp, time to 23 skidoo! Hang ten, duders!

Redan Chulipa Nebula Rasa Technologies Nebula Rasa	Posted - 2011.01.30 10:20:00 - [46] Originally by: Irani Firecam I found the character creator to be intuitive to use. How the hell did you get the face to display any kind of emotion!? Haxx!
Kurfin	Posted - 2011.01.30 10:50:00 - [47] Originally by: Kukiri Originally by: Blasterella Edited by: Blasterella on 29/01/2011 19:12:00 Space Barbie is epic fail. ... wtf ccp, you suck. Looks like your entire character creation consisted of about six mouse clicks. Random morph, random morph, boob slider to max, pose for boobage, light for boobage, take photo. It's not CCP that sucks. It's your skills as an artist. This made me laugh so hard a little bit of wee came out Seriously though it wasn't quite finished, we are waiting for tattoos, scars and so on, and having an complex character creation tool is a bit pointless till incarna hits anyway.
Illwill Bill Noxious Intention	Posted - 2011.01.30 11:05:00 - [48] Originally by: Redan Chulipa Originally by: Irani Firecam I found the character creator to be intuitive to use. How the hell did you get the face to display any kind of emotion!? Haxx! I found it quite easy. It's just that Eve's character creator is designed to weed out stupid people, just like the rest of the game is. Originally by: CCP Navigator Great story but you probably want this in CAOD so feel free to post there with your main.
Emma Hewitt Gallente Federal Navy Academy	Posted - 2011.01.30 11:10:00 - [49] Originally by: Sig Sour Nothing touches Minecrafts character creator! I would love to paint my own clothes! but not pixel by pixel

It's not CCP that sucks. It's your skills as an artist. And it is not like its very hard to create something that look decent so the failure is yours entirely, Blasterella. When the character creator goes live: After CCP letting everyone redo their portraits:
Feilamya Pain Elemental	Posted - 2011.01.30 11:28:00 - [52] Originally by: Selinate I would've preferred just to get sliding bars, tbh Sliding bars are so 1990s. Get a touch screen like everyone else. I play EVE on my iPhone, and I love the interface.
Frecator Dementa Caldari Caldari Navy Volunteer Task Force	Posted - 2011.01.30 11:33:00 - [53] the only ****ty thing about the current char creator is that the character keeps moving while you're editing The character should only move in "posing" mode, not in editing mode ---- <sig goes here>
Luc Guerrier Aliastra	Posted - 2011.01.30 11:53:00 - [54] Edited by: Luc Guerrier on 30/01/2011 11:56:32 Originally by: Frecator Dementa the only ****ty thing about the current char creator is that the character keeps moving while you're editing The character should only move in "posing" mode, not in editing mode I like it more that way. With the way it moves and and the facial expressions you can see them right away and adjust. Otherwise you'd have to keep jumping back between portrait and full body mode, losing whatever shots you already made in the process. Also this will be a much better preview once Incarna goes live. What they need to work on is hair. Longer hair tends to fidget around the shoulders pretty badly.
Kalerto Kopato	Posted - 2011.01.30 11:55:00 - [55] all that are flaming here should simply shut up and focus their attention to making a better one..... until you don't proof that there's some knowledge stuff behind your complaining and just spit out curses at ccp i don't take you serious.....not a single second....
Selinate Amarr Red Water Syndicate	Posted - 2011.01.30 13:37:00 - [56] Originally by: Feilamya Originally by: Selinate I would've preferred just to get sliding bars, tbh Sliding bars are so 1990s. Get a touch screen like everyone else. I play EVE on my iPhone, and I love the interface. Whatever floats your boat. Eve wouldn't require that many sliders at all though, really, so I don't see why we can't have them. The creator just gives the illusion to complexity, but really, I'd guess there are maybe 20-30 different glorified sliders hidden within it. For instance, target the calves. Now move the mouse up. Now move it down. Congratulations, that's the only direction you can change the calves. Same thing with thighs, shoulders/arms, and probably one or 2 more features that I can't think of off the top of my head. It's just not as insanely complex as everyone is making it out to be, just more annoying to use....

Mina Hiragi Caldari 24th Imperial Crusade	Posted - 2011.01.30 14:39:00 - [58] Originally by: Hai Boiz TES4 Oblivion Oblivion's character creator completely sucked. That is all.
Cruzcampo	Posted - 2011.01.30 14:45:00 - [59] If you find the character creater too difficult to use, you would save yourself a lot of headaches if you took it as a hint and just unsubbed right now, because you'll be eaten alive by EVE.
Cmdr Baxter The Synenose Accord	Posted - 2011.01.30 15:36:00 - [60] Originally by: Quemist Despite all of the hardships through your trials and tribulations you still created some really great ****. This made me laugh.
