I first got the idea for this when I was orienting the star gates to point to the actual stars, a long time ago. This was a pet project that I did in a few evenings in my spare time. My hope was to bring more depth to the background and a sense of direction when traveling long distances.
I am glad you like it. To those who don't see the point: I guess I should have done something else in my spare time :) Burn so hard all you people who cried out saying CCP wasted time on this. |

awesome project, please bribe your team owner/boss/whatever that you can expand on it in your work time, there is a lot of potential for additional map functionality that could be tied into that overlay and be presented in a much (much !!) better way than they currently are We are recruiting german-speaking PVP players, contact me :)

Screw the haters. Little things like this that make the game more immersive and that fact that you guys put so much time into the player base and game are reasons why I love being part of it.

It looks "pretty" but I'm having a hard time understanding the point of spending time to code that as appposed to any number of things that would actually be usefull in EVE.
Or is this where we are in EVE's life? Getting excited over stuff that has zero useful fucntionality in the game. Your argument is invalid It is because all the POSsys you ever built are UGLY. You will have to improve a lot young man before we can talk about POS revamp...

I'm totally ******* STOKED. This is AMAZING. You GUYS. Good Job CCP good job. Great ******* job. Please have a video of you guys grabbing the guy who thought of implenting this and throwing him out his office cubicle for THINKING OUTSIDE THE BOX. I am just so stoked right now. You guys.
This is photoshop right? CCP doesn't actually do this, no way. The new backgrounds are just hi-res map paintings...... Fighting is Magic |

Everyone jumped on me for being critical.
Guys, THIS is what I would expect to happen when I see stuff like this. It's one thing when it's something a dev undertakes because they love their game and are willing to do things on THEIR time.
I don't see a point in CCP saying "you guys do this, instead of doing this stuff over here that we always complain about not have time, resources, ability to do."
As a subscribing player I feel I have every right to express my opinion over what CCP allocates resources to.
I apologize if I wasn't very clear originaly. I didn't mean any disrespect to CCP Mannapi; he did a fantastic job, it looks good.
Goodness, you'd think I was critisizing the players. |

His name was CCP Mannapi.
He sacrificed his free time and worked longer hours just so we could be even more immersed into this game we love <3 Kick Heim... MATE |

This idea is incredible.
It may not seem like much; after all, many others have pointed to the fact that it's a small, "nonfunctional" addition to the game.
Well, technically they are right in their own way, but I like to think about how all of these little things come together to make a world of difference, ESPECIALLY brilliant ideas like this one.
I love seeing stuff like this put into games, and I absolutely ADORE the fact that this was mainly done as a "pet project in spare time." It's the little things like that that keep me playing EVE Online. (also most notably the passion shown by the devs)
Kudos to a great idea, keep up the good work CCP.

What an unpleasant comment. I think that this feature is amazing - and I think it IS the sort of thing that CCP should be doing. The fact you only now approve of this because you found out CCP Mannapi did this in his free time - but wouldn't have approved of it if it was a CCP directive to produce this content is weird. It's either good content or bad content. And it is amazingly good content. |

The nebula with little stars is, but there are those "cross lens flare stars" that are brighter, and I think they are actually in the place of the "true" stars on the starmap. I think there is independent mechanism for showing those "true" stars. Inside mining barge, true story |

This is so awesome, CCP please spent next year on polishing autopilot and add more shiny thing, because we need this, also ignore totaly tech moons, pos, broken sov etc, who care about them, make stars more shiny.
Ps. Would be cool to get somthing like paint in game so we can draw lanes and links betwen stars and draw new awesome zodiac. EvE isn't game, its style of living. |
