CCP Sledgehammer C C P C C P Alliance 430	Posted - 2015.07.10 14:58:53 - [1] - Quote Hi all, We are planning a mass test on Singularity on Thursday, July 16th @ 17:00 EVE time. What exactly is being tested? We have just revamped a significant number of stretch effects used by utility modules as well as introduced a new audio backend for Turret audio. How to connect to Singularity for this test: Read the Instructions at http://wiki.eveonline.com/en/wiki/Singularity and read general instructions about mass tests at http://wiki.eveonline.com/en/wiki/Mass_testing. Join the in-game channel "MassTesting" Test steps: Jump to X-BV98 Align to POS beacon Warp to POS beacon Shoot the control tower Use ewar/remote mods Align to Poitot gate Fleet 1: Jump to Poitot and setup gate camp Fleet 2: Jump to Poitot + fight at the gate Doomsdays What else should I know? We will be moving players to the test system - join the channel massmoveme 2M Skill points will be awarded on Singularity for this mass test Bring many different ships and ideally titans if you can. Fit a selection of utility modules, anything from the following categories: Cargo Scanners, Neuts, Nos, Cap Transfers, Salvagers, Tractor Beams, Remote Armor/Shield Reps, ECM, Remote Sensor Boosters, Ship Scanners, Survey Scanners, Target Painters, Remote Tracking Computers, Warp Scramblers Cynos will be provided Graphical QA Analyst \| EVE Quality Assurance \| Team TriLambda

Will the new effects be less graphics intensive for us with older machines? From the numbers I've seen there are only a couple of effects from our revamped set that have an increase in milliseconds/frame and those are quite minute, so you shouldn't be able to discern any performance degradation from these effects. I know that aspects of Doomsdays have always been a performance hit (see Gjallarhorn/Oblivion impacts) but we're making every effort to improve on those.

Will you release gifs of the new stretch effect or something of the sort? I was actually thinking of making a comparison chart showing old and new as I was walking in to work this morning!

CCP Sledgehammer C C P C C P Alliance 437	Posted - 2015.07.16 15:38:48 - [5] - Quote Hi folks, to give you an update on things: Yesterday's disastrophe will have no impact on today's mass test. The test will run for roughly 40-60mins (historically closer to 40). I wouldn't say that the new effects are as drastically different as the new explosions we showed at fanfest (and I cannot provide a timescale for when you'll see those particular effects). Hope to see you there! Graphical QA Analyst \| EVE Quality Assurance \| Team TriLambda

This is with a fresh sisi install after copying my TQ setuo, which works as normal. That's the one. Fix should be in soon. Graphical QA Analyst \| EVE Quality Assurance \| Team TriLambda
