Can you tell us a little more about the plans for this new engine? Is it a full rewrite, language change, or similar? I'm trying to get a sense of how much things will be changing and if it's many months away still (without trying to be too specific... "someday" versus "somewhat sooner than someday").

Will you keep on maintaining phobos?

Sure, it's essential component necessary for any kind of sane engine. It's also hosted on github under my account.

Been having this issue for the past couple versions of pyfa for mac. I can't change my damage profiles in the resistances window; I can open the damage pattern editor and make a pattern, save them, copy them ect, but once I'm done with that I right click on the resistances area and nothing happens.

Some of the other right clicking seems to be working perfectly though, if I right click my damage output I can do the factoring reload time thing.

I know it used to work for me too, because I have a tengu fit saved with different incoming damage patterns. But anyway now I cant change any of it.

some help would be great thanks :)

great to see that you decided to move to github. This simplifies community contributions dramatically.

edit: btw (since you mentioned it) you could even use github to store the releases etc. it has a minimalistic download section with dl counter etc

I can't seem to drag n drop the same fit into the 'Projected' box? Im trying to test out RR ships

a bump and maybe a silly question:

How do I update pyfa without loosing all settings, characters, etc.?

How do I import a Character from file? I am sometimes in situations where a Firewall prevents me from using the API...

It should work unless projected fits form a loop (including ship projecting onto itself).

There's no such functionality unfortunately. There's pull request on github which implements char exporter, but no importer yet.

This was asked more than a year ago, and the answer then was no: Can Pyfa import skills from a .chr text file exported from EVEMon?

Thanks for the reply, so how would I test an RR ship receiving reps from an Identical RR ship? Like 2 identical Domis or identical 2 Basis?

Just bumping this, wondering if anyone has a solution to my problem.

First of all, thanks for the good work! exporting the effecting skills is so great!
Can you tell me how to get these changes for the latest release?
Do I have to copy paste every single line, or is there a "overwrite-archive" ?
Thanks!

Until this is in a release (looks like my changes have been pulled in as of a couple weeks ago so hopefully they'll be in the next version) ....

I just got pyfa today having gotten back into eve after a year and a half vacation and i'm really pleased with it. My only issue is, and im probably just being blind, but i can't seem to find any numbers on the RR amount that a ship is putting out. Any help would be appreciated.

Can I get an "Undo" under Edit, please?

Hi all. I've used Pyfa previously, but seem to be running into trouble trying to reinstall it.
...

ahhhh~
Med Energy Turret damage bonus in Omen Navy Issue also doesn't work correctly.

I still have a big bug though: The only way to close this thingy is killing it with the task mgr. If I click on the X, nothing happens. If I do File/Quit, nothing happens.

I got round this by creating a copy of the fit (ie Scimitar 1 and Scimitar 2) then project one onto the other. Works for e-war modules too, so you can see how 2 sensor damps projected onto you will affect lock range, scan res.

And I also advise that you should split the fitting window into three parts (high, med, low, just like EFT does). This makes the fitting windows nicer.

How difficult would it be to add a "favorites" tab next to Market and Ships where we could add specific fits into multiple categories? I'm thinking something like

I'm having quite a few issues with the pyfa build 1.1.15 on a 10.8 Macbook Pro.

• Fairly frequent beachball hangs followed by sluggishness and inoperability (mods cannot be removed or added, search function returns nothing, etc.)
• Intermittent full crashes - I have console outputs for some
• Graphing function previously worked, now window does not come up whatsoever.

I have crash reports and can pull an open files and ports listiing with the app running if helpful. Possible that numpy or matplotlib needs to be updated?

A few bugs that I have found recently:

I understand how useful it is, but actually such functionality is insanely hard to implement. This could be done, but definitely not soon.

Cant seem to be able to import xml form eve into pyfa? broken?

just got Pyfa. Fit a Tornado made sure skills were update, but when i exported too eve and built ship HP and DPS all off...

pyfa is showing Higher than what im getting in game 39k hp in pyfa without inplants ... 29k hp in game with inplants

Hey. I have 2 requests for PYFA.

1. Would it be possible to add a 'Cargo Bay' tab in the same place as the 'Drones' and 'Implants' are placed with the Cargo space each ships have?

EDIT 2: I've continued to look into this, and I've got a skeleton working. It adds a cargo view, and only accepts charges. Many bugs / unfinished things, but I'll continue to work on it on my spare time and submit a pull request into the main project branch when ready. =)

While i'm in the mood of asking for new things, there is also one more thing that i would like to see in PYFA. I would like to see all of the Jove / Dev ships embedded into PYFA that we can equip just to see how they would be. Those ships would just be under a 'Dev Ships' category.

Pyfa, I believe, only fetches ships that are published in the game. It might simply be a matter of tweaking the code, but something like this might have to be hardcoded (limited edition ships, for example are hardcoded to give them their own special category). Then again, since dev ships are omgwtf, I have no idea if the Pyfa engine would know what to do with the outrageous values they have. Probably a question for the owner. ;)

Also, it's coming along nicely: Pyfa Cargo View

To use your picture as an example, you could make it to show 120/165 m3 there if you had used that in the same way as it shows how many calibration points you have used under 'Resources'.

Might become too cluttered, I would have to look into it, but cargo utilization is on the todo list. I might include it in the actual cargo view, perhaps a bar on the bottom that fills up or something... Who knows.

Question I always wondered about but was too lazy to ask: in the pyfa damage graph, I understand target distance, sig radius and speed, but what is target angle? Is it the angular velocity? It's kind of a confusing title.

If you look carefully, you will notice that the path for pyfa is NOT the path it is trying to load the fonts from. In fact, if I delete all the .pyc files, this path isn't written into the app anywhere. So it's pulling stale data from somewhere and trying to use a broken path.

I can't seem to run the application. Is there something other than the Program files that I need to download/install in order to open PYFA. I double click the PYFA application file and nothing happens.

Running Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit

Is there a guide somewhere on how to load up new ship stats based on the rebalance posts? CCP publishes on the forum stats for ships, but they are just proposed and may change in a day or ten. Is there some way to load these proposals up in pyfa and test various fits?

So.... Is there going to be an update, on the ship changes that has already been made, ingame?!


-Cheers \+¦/

One serious gripe with Pyfa. Its too complicated to get the stats on projected reps. I'm making a wormhole RR concept and I dont see any reason I should have to copy a ship 6 times to get all the RR mods instead of just dragging the RR mod on the ship into the projected effects 6 times. EFT allows me to do that so easily I don't understand why pyfa doesn't.

That is literally the one thing that is keeping me from using pyfa except in very limited situations.

ok, quick question, i posted this in mac as well but no reply, sorry if its been answered or easy :)
pyfa outputs a html file for fits, but when i add it to the same destination for the eve files they are xml so its not recognised? is there a way to change it to xml or for eve to see html?
thanks for any help

How can i modify ship attributes manually?

As patch is upcoming in few days, i wanted to skip test build and do the release on the patch day. But there turns out to be few changes which may be worth to test thoroughly, so here's the release:

Singularity 597398:
Linux/src (zip)

Warning! This build may damage your data - before lauunching it make sure to backup ~/.pyfa/saveddata.db

There were multiple changes made by contributors, namely - character import-export and better UI for updating character skills via EVE API. More details will be posted when it comes to stable release.

If someone brave enough decides to try it out, please tell me how it went.

Unless I'm mistaken, fleet boosts no longer seem to be working? The fleet boosting interface is pretty bad (read: you pretty much have to google search it to figure out how to use it and even then you're not sure), so I could just be forgetting how to set them. If that could be improved in a later version (pop-up menus for fleet/wing/squad booster ship fits, like the pop-up menus for characters?), I'm sure everyone would be very happy. :)

Seem to be working for me.

Browse to your fit, then open it. Then browse to your boosting ship fit, right click -> set as whatever. Then choose character in the fleet panel.

Yes, the boosting interface is pretty bad. Hopefully work will start on a new one once the new engine in finished.

that warfare link interface is the worst piece of crap I've ever seen.

- 9003/10

Tool is great but I was able to start it exactly one time after that I am not able to open it again.

I dont even get any error messages, does anyone have the same problem?

I am using Windows 7 OS.

Unbelievable, why don't you post constructively (how would you make it better?) instead of whining about a tool that someone puts their personal time into to produce for you to use for FREE.

Just noticed the Kestrel will not load any fits, only ship I've noticed not working.

Hey,

Could anyone explain to me how i add custom ships to pyfa or where i can read how to do it?
I want to add the new exploration ships with the stats from THIS thread.

thanks in advance

o/

I like all the features.. i think its excellent

but why does overheating guns have like a 2 second latency?(just an example, everything is like that) Its really really slow...

Hey guys... there seems to be something wrong showing the velocity on the Vagabond with 10 MN modules

I've noticed pyfa beachballing and crashing lately while editing fits. I know there's a directory in my home folder that I can delete to clear the settings that might be causing the problem, but will this delete my fits?

Using a mac.

Anybody have any ideas why I keep getting "random" segfaults with pyfa?

First off, THANK YOU! Your work is appreciated.

But I have an issue with the Mac client not being about to load my previous .XML fitting file. I get the loading ping-pong graphic and it hangs there. Have to do a force quit to exit the app.

Now that CCP have published the stats on the new SoE ships will you be adding them to the Pyfa DB soon? I can't wait to start playing with fits for these things. :)

And here's how to tweak the Marauders with the Rubicon changes:
However, there doesn't appear to be a ship mass attribute in pyfa, so you can't have everything.

Is it just me, or scan resolution bonus penalty doesn't count on (medium) targeting system subcontroller i and signal amplifier ii?

As promised, new build with latest SiSi data - singularity 621408:
Windows
Mac
Linux/src

Includes few additions and fixes as well.

Havnt been able to fit the kestrel in pyfa since 1.1.16. I find it in the ships tab but when i click on a fit or try to make a new one nothing happens. Tried deleting everything and download from scratch. Still the same problem, Anyone else having this or is it just me?

Why all attributes in final pyfa is wrong?
At this moment i saw all frigs in pyfa and EvE tranq - all have different attributes.

alright, so I downloaded it for mac and then tried to import my character. When i press on import characters, a finder window pops up and i need to find a file EVE CCP API XML file. I know what an API key is, that i give to corps to check out my background and stuff, but I cant find anything online about where to find that file on my cpu, if i need to download it, and stuff like that. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
With thanks,
Justin

Latest build doesn't appear to have the interdictor changes fyi.

I'm sure I'm missing something, however whenever I try to add a fleet/wing/squad booster it reverts to "All 0" no matter what character/default option I choose. Any help?

Sorry, but I am still having trouble with this. I have a Mac and have thoroughly searched my hard drive for a folder called Window or Character Editor and still cannot find it. I was wondering if you could provide some more help. Thanks!!!

Release 1.1.17:

Windows: zip
Mac: zip
Linux/src: zip

Alternate links:
Windows, mac, linux/src

Nothing new, except for rubicon update. Also now github is primary host for binaries.

I think there's an error in the Stratios. According to PYFA 1.1.17, the Stratios has 500 CPU and 1,150 PG. According to the patch notes, that's been nerfed to 400 and 920 respectively.

no chance here...

direct on start...

pyfa vs eft

which one is accurate ? someone forgot something somewhere... a 9km range difference on blaster is huuuuuuuuuuge.

yeh osmium says another thing too ... ;p

Did you have such problem with older versions of pyfa?
Do you some amount of spare HDD space on system partition? Do you have programs like anti-virus monitors running (they sometimes may affect stability)?
Also, you can try removing sqlalchemy.cprocessors.pyd module - theoretically it should fall back to python version of the module, which may not bug out.

What you do is under Pyfa, go to the menu called "Window" then select Character Editor. From there you will get a window that has a sub widow called "API" where you can go and input your characters Skill API (the one you get from the website).

Can you add implants to a character on Pyfa? I can't seem to figure out how

First of all, thanks to everyone for keeping this project up to date and running.

I'm not super familiar with the code base and know even less about github, but I do have some skill when it comes to software and I made a tiny patch that I'd personally wanted and seen requested before. A simple update to make the ship's total mass easily visible in the "Targeting & Misc" section of the display.

Screenshot of new field working in Pyfa

Comes in handy for WH dwellers and hole rolling. Not sure if this is something others would find useful but I'm happy to share if so, just not sure what the best way to get the code out there is.

Anyone else having trouble where pyfa stops allowing selection of UI elements?

Just downloaded and made a couple ship fits with the updated Pyfa and the math is all wrong. Using my skills I made a ship that fit and was stable and when I put it together in game I was short powergrid and was not cap stable. Puts into question if any of the numbers Pyfa is giving me is correct or not.

Can someone help me please? I really tried to figure out how to export my character information for importing it to pyfa.
I really don't get it.

I honestly have no idea how to import my character. Any help?

The easiest way to keep your characters up to date in PYFA is to go to
-> Windows
-> Character Editor
-> API
-> https://community.eveonline.com/support/api-key/update/
log in, set expiry to
"never expires"
check
"Character sheet"
hit
"Submit" - done.

In PYFA click "New Character" (the left of the four buttons)
name it after your character (ideally)
copy paste the ID and the verification
click "get character" and select the wanted character (in case it's an account API and you have several characters on that account)
then click "fetch skills".

That's it - you're golden now to tinker the allV fits down to your skill level (or tweak em to whatever purpose you need them for).
Hope that helps

OK I've done this, but I can't get the character drop down (main screen) to show anything except "All 5". The widget arrows are disabled also.

version 1.1.8 on mac running mavericks

Thanks!

Forgive if I'm being dense, but I honestly can't figure out how to put a fitting together. I select my ship and drag modules onto the high/med/low slots but nothing happens. Anyone give me a hand?

Can't remember if drag'n'drop is supposed to work or not, but try double-clicking on the modules instead.

all of them seem to involve me sending a lot of events to the system rapidly, but I'm not sure if that's really the cause. I've tried being more deliberate and slow but am still seeing some of these limited hang events. Given the variety of cases I'm not sure if providing a video will really help.

Bastion Module I takes 10 CPU, not 7.5.

Just downloaded and made a couple ship fits with the updated Pyfa and the math is all wrong.

Since 1.1.18 I haven't been able to backup my fittings. PyFa just sits there with the processing message forever and I have to kill it with process manager.

can not open with Archive Utility on mac with 10.8.5

Is there a way to talk to pyfa from the commandline? What I am looking for is this command


pyfa export "example fitting" ./fitting.xml


I am sure this is not an easy task. So i would like like to write that by myself. Can you give me a hint where i could find the stored fittings and where in the code the export is done?

What file are base ships stored in? And how hard are they to write?

Any idea when retina support will be implemented?

But there is a small thing that I wish it could be different: The "Reactive Armor Hardener" It always give 15% 15% 15% 15% to the resistances, while in game this percentages changes to the damage received, so the best value for this module would be [60% * "respective damage pattern"] is it possible to do this for the next update? or if not possible, can we customize the values for this module???

using the latest 1.1.18
I also have the backing-up-takes infinite time and dps graph doesn't appear at all problems.

I used to have python installed ages ago, but I'm probably not able to fix this myself. I can't tell if I have the same problem debir did on page 3 or how to fix that.

Let me know where/how to get logs of the problem and I will do it.

Idk if anyone has asked this before, but could we get a way to project bonused modules on a fit? Like .... projecting Arazu damps or Bhaalgorn Neuts

When I click on "Get Characters" in the API, I get an error saying "Unable to fetch characters list from EVE API!".

I created a new API solely for Pyfa and I am running it as administrator. I can't see any reason for this not to work.

Hello!
Any word on Pyfa? Is it still in operation? Just updated my API's and can't seem to get Pyfa to take it.
Cheers!

Time for new release!

Contains updates to latest SiSi data (Rubicon 1.1 preview), as well as few search changes.

It does not appear that the omni module is working properly, or atleast I cannot get it to activate in pyfa.

Fixed it, see link in my previous post.

p.s. CCP changed how bonuses are shown in ship's description, it will take a while till i figure how to get this data and put into proper place. So absence of ship bonuses in description is known issue and will be fixed by next release.

I found this information to be a helpful quick reference when determining basic ship characteristics. Has this been intentionally removed or an accidental omission?
