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.

Those are some pretty nice shots you got there. Thanks for sharing them with us. 
Yeah, even with the game engine as old as it is it still does the job well enough. ___________________

It's in a deadspace cosmos area in Deltole, if I remember correctly.
The casino shown is also in space there, right beside it.

That station also used to be there in level II version of Save the Damsel if I recall correctly. ___________________

Some of those shots are now saved in my own little collections folder, thanks. It's actually kind of funny, because I would probably play Eve even if it had ASCII graphics.

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!
In EVE, you can fit to gank, tank or tackle. Pick any two. |

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

Fair enough, beauty shots are forgiveable and, in my opinion, the Hurricane is worthy of the taking of a beauty shot or ten!

Thank you for sharing. Some of the best desktop wallpapers I've ever had are just screen caps from eve. I was in complete awe in June 03, and to this day I still see things that just amaze me, and this with an engine that is old as the hills (in computer years).

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

Sigma,
very nice ones. Had the hardest time to decide which one I liked best. Maybe there's just several, but for a dramatic one I'll select the POS siege.
Shiny Myrmidons there. Hmmm .. shin-ey!
And even that Cormorant looks nice. But I'm missing a Sabre, or Thrasher. No love for the miniature space train?
