There comes a time when everyone has to do the dreaded, the terrible task of cleaning out their cache folders. Thousands of chatlogs, even more gamelogs, portraits and strange files that only the devs have ebil icelandic insights into.
One folder is commonly overlooked. The Screenshots folder.
I have 4 Eve Clients stored on one of my hard disks at present, and while cleaning out the cache on them to solve a connection problem I noticed something about Eve.
It's graphics engine might be almost a decade old, but god damn, it's still good looking. So, I decided to put our corp gallery on our site to good use... (thanks griefwatch )
Two of the screenshots on there, the Enyo shadowed by a planet and it's moon, and the two planet eclipse causing a cresent effect, were not taken by myself. These were taken from a folder on my hard disk and added to the stack of uploaded files, the rest are shots from my HUD over the time I've spent in Eve charting gameplay dating back to 2003 and touching most of the regions in Eve.
I've been enjoying doing a bit of photography in game with some of the new ships too, they are also in there.
I never really noticed how well the engine works until now. Most take it for granted, and I was surprised at how good Eve can look, even with what is effectively a dinosaur for a graphics engine.
Take a look at the gallery, hopefully people will like it, and if there is a positive response I'll continue to make it grow.
I've branded the images with our corp logo for the site, but if anyone would like a copy of any of them simply eve-mail me a link to the image in game, and I'll host it and send you back a link without the logo, if I still have the original.
Roll on Trinity. Whoever designed the current engine needs a payrise, to be honest.

Originally by: Elaron Some good pics there, Verone.
Although I have to say, shame on whoever it was flying that Hurricane and didn't put guns on it!
Crap, that was me, posing for the picture on SiSi when the ships went live there 
... still it looks good without them... all smooth and stuff

Originally by: Abathur Edited by: Abathur on 07/01/2007 08:36:42 Very impressive, Verone. I most like the one of the POS under attack. 
Actually, this one is my favorite. 
oooo pretty gold bars 
The screen you mentioned there, is one of two on my hard disk I found and put in with the pack. I'm not sure of it's origins but it looks that good I couldn't resist adding it. 
Hard to choose, but I'd have to say this one is my favourite

Originally by: Tasuric Orka Nice pictures Mr verone, it's a shame eve's graphical beauty is mostly lost in seaÆs of white squares, and the fact the derelicts are often hidden in deadspace, wasted on the unworthy mission *****s. ;)
We need more atmosphere ccp!
I'd love to see more eyecandy in space to be honest, abandoned stations, debris, structures and stuff that adds to the backstory and immersion. I just guess CCP hasn't got the time to sit someone down and do it all...there's a lot more imporatant stuff to work on

For the all the Gallente Assault Frigate fans (in particular the Enyo), I've added a few shots from a frigate op we ran last night. I've added a couple of Vindicator/Deimos shots too, a couple of Astarte/Eos shots, and a couple for all the Matari Assault frigate pilots out there.
There's also a shot of the Eve-Gate added (i have some of these @ 2560x1024 if people need them, just Eve-Mail me), and a couple of the Black Monolith over in Genesis.
Over the next couple of months, I'm going to be doing a tour of New Eden in my spare time, so hopefully we'll have an assload of shots of all the monuments in Eve, including The Serpents Coil, The Myridian Strip and the ASCN Memorial Wreck.
I kind of want to chart these before the Trinity engine upgrade so as there's a good baseline for comparison on improvements to the engine.
Hope you enjoy the new submissions

Oh, and to add. If anyone has requests for images of ships places to add, Eve-Mail me and I'll see what I can do, or post here.

Originally by: Constantine Arcanum I think eve would look great with its current engine, but with improved station textures and HDR 
I tend to agree, although I'm all for the high res models that CCP have shown us so far

Edited by: Verone on 01/05/2007 11:21:57 The gallery has been updated again with a few more Veto Corp action shots.
As well as that I thought I'd share a copy of my new desktop background.. It was taken in New Eden so some with a view to the RP backstory of Eve might like it, others might not. (sorry for the slight jpeg compression the original image is 3200x1200)
It marks the start of the search for all the monuments in Eve, which hopefully I'll be able to photograph before the Trinity Engine upgrade.
If anyone would like a copy of the shot of the Eve Gate, Just Evemail me and let me know what you want. I have shots with the gate itself in various locations on the screen, and in resolutions ranging from 1024x768 to 5200x1900.
The rest of the gallery can as always, be seen in the red link below my signature in this post, which links back to the original post in this thread.

I'm a fan of the funky chicken too. The Damnation is the best looking ship in the game.
Think I'll be forced to get a few of this next too actually... the gallery is somewhat lacking Damnationage.

Originally by: Tommy Vercetti Nice thread Verone.
This actually happened to me the other day in fact, checked out the screenshots folder and saw all these old shots that I thought were long deleted.
Yeah, it's amazing what you can find in them after a few months without clearing your cache

We held a memorial op for a lost corpmate tonight, including a lot of faction ships.
Basically, everyone flew their favourite, or most well skilled ship.
The gallery has been updated with some Faction Ship shots of the fleet we assembled in memory of DarkElf.
They can be seen in the top six rows in the gallery.
