When they said they were going to make them stand out between copies and originals i thought they were going to just change boarders to differant colours, but what they have done seems pointless really and copy looks like it not been finished properly.

Can't see anything wrong with it myself. I just found a few BPO's among my supposed BPC collection. It's working perfectly well and it's clear which blueprints are original and which are copies. I'm failing to see your point.

Despite the mocking from some posters, I think you have a fair point.
While I respect the fact that they do their job very well (clearly distingusihable from BPOs), they ruin the whole asthectic of the UI. Unfortunately they just don't sit comfortably with everything else on the screen.
When people post links to online calculators that they have created, the feedback I see quite often is "please change white background to black - it doesn't glare so much when I'm in-game!"...
...the same is true of the new BPCs, they're too bright.

it's CCP design laziness! The original BP(O's or C's) were awful as far as continuety was concerned (ships in space and everything else inert) so it's no surprise that this hasn't worked out that well visually (compare a ship bpo/bpc/T2-bpc with a rig bpo/bpc/T2-bpc) although it's absolutely great that CCP techies have sorted out differentiating between BPC and BPO.

Originally they whined about how blueprints would need to query another database to get that info whether its bpc or bpo. I guess they finally figured out they could just abuse an existing data column items always have loaded like faction/deadspace items since blueprints won't need em for the same purpose....

No, they figured out a way to move that information up in a more prioritized data set now that they had 64bit values to play with rather than just 32, which allowed them have different blueprint states be represented by different item IDs, rather than just one ID and a number of (low-priority) subtypes. ùùù ôIf you're not willing to fight for what you have in ≡v≡à you don't deserve it, and you will lose it.ö ù Karath Piki |

Personally, I wouldn't care if they put a picture of Mickey Mouse on them. When you open a can containing 1200 blueprints, being able to tell the difference is a HUGE deal. I don't much care for the color, but considering where we were yesterday, that is my new favorite color.

Still downloading the patch, but can someone screenshot the new colours? Are they really that offensive? And if so, can CCP (if you read this) not give an option to have muted colours if we want? I would love to have BPC's as Grey and BPO's as Blue.

I'm bumping this up, as I think it needs some attention - I hope some DEV sees this and adds it to their feedback notes.
The new BPC icons are defintely distingusihable (as we requested), but seriously, can the colours be toned down at bit please? Thanks.

The blueprint icons are horrid! My eyes are gone, they look nothing like a blueprint now.
Did you have to set blue to 11!!
They are more like eye gouging SUPERNOVA WHITE.

Will CCP pay for a new monitor, the new blueprints burnt it out.

good news: now the item DB and industry manufacturing streams have been updated to cope with originals/copies, changing the icon should be a minor thing.

What they have accomplished is making it instantly obvious to gate gankers whether you you have a copy or original in your hold.
Oh happy days.

I spent years hoping for this little change. I thought maybe BPCs would end up as greenprints with a similar deep hue as blueprints, with a border of some sort, or even a corner tab as with T2 and faction gear. Instead we get blurry, striped, and washed out icons. I tried to close the hanger window and undock, but was blinded by the glare and logged out by accident. Can't wait until I can stagger around stations. Who authorized this abortion?

Are you i=kidding me? this thread reeks of alts. Person that cares about blueprints easily has two accounts. that's 6 posts. maybe 5 if he doesn't want to post his main.
OP is an alt, obviously, no tags, no corp, no alliance.
Millia is obviously the 2 or 3rd poster that thinks the new BPC look so bad they they "RUIN" the UI.
move on, post with your main OP boy.

They are still called BLUE PRINTS... if you'd like to see a different color they would have to have been renamed to GREEN PRINTS or something. I don't even wanna touch BROWN PRINTS

I for one love the change. So much I might even restart my t2 invention/building scheme. It is a bit bright however its a hell of a lot better then trying to shift through a bunch of BPs to figure out which ones are BPOs or copies.
