There's no new graphics content yet. I personally think the title of the news post is a bit confusing, but it does clarify it a bit in the body.

This engine will use the graphic card finally? (I'm talking about the classic client, not the super cool DX9)

Ok, I mean.. the rusty look of this viator is now replaced by some silly reflective look.. like it was polished somehow.?!  And running two clients does give me some funny ui-bugs (buttons disappear, shipps diasppear after jumping).. but I'll wait what others have to say about that

The same tends to happen here, especially when you do alt-tab while being in autopilot, and try to maximize the window again after your ship jumped through a few gates.
Edit: actually it seems to be more a random error, I even got a Visual C++ Runtime error message once. _________

I can't see any "new" look on anything, ppl in local say their ships are looking better so I'm really confused here. And cpu load is same as on TQ.
Doesn't look like the gfx card is doing much yet.
And lots of weird gfx bugs, icons not loading and lag is worse than before this last patch

Its not just the title of the new post that is confusing. having sat a TQ and SISI client on the same PC I cannot see any difference in CPU / Mem use nor any change in fps.
So does the new engine actually use the graphics card more if it uses the old content?

Some stuff was given an overhaul, but in general the engine running the old content and code is very similar to what was there before, to maintain content compatibility. There are new code paths for new content.

hey hey
Its certainly lagging like crazy and i managed to moonwalk (went backwards) the ship into a gate.
Gate looked alot crisper and seemed to have a very nice lighting effect on it. no noticable FPS increases or performance increases but my guess was the lag and the constant trafic advisories wasnt doing much for the server and had no real bearing on actual performance.
Could a nice DEV please clear all my science jobs as everytime i try i hang the client .. . . the pos they were attached to isnt there anymore :)
Many thanks Mikal Drey

Relax. 400+ people on the test server is very bad in terms of 'lag'. It just can't handle it.
The new 'content on demand' is weird tho I admit. I can forsee laggy fleet battles, where previously you would see whether your modules were active or not... Now you just won't see any modules at all. (tho...if you hover over them, it still says what they are...as I said, odd.
Also, Alt + tabbing = bad.

I'm guessing that its safe to assume that the content compatibility detection isn't working as intended? I say this because I know my card doesn't support shader 3 (and I was under the impression that this was a deal breaker for whether the new content works or not) but my sisi client tells me that my computer should support the new art content if it were available

The new engine doesn't care if your card supports SM3 or not because, as far as I am aware, it is used for the classic and enhanced graphics.

I assumee, it is compiled, delivered and never tested? First impressions: - server slow - client not faster; more CPU - not a stable build
Hardware: P4 3.4Mhz; Hyperthreading; 2GByte RAM Radeon X1900
Tests: Splashscreen 60% CPU in FullScreen (Hyperthreading; 2 virtual CPUs) Splashscreen 60% CPU in Windowed CPU-Load 65%-70% during entering Game (Character Selection) -> 10mins CPU-Load 65%-70% during entering Game (Entering Station) -> 5mins CPU-Load 70%-80% during dockout
Changing Windowed to Fullscreen crashes EVE -> destroying all settings....

So, new engine does not offer anything new or improvements unless you buy a new graphic card with DX9 shaders 3.0...

I also waited on the "entering game as.." screen for a long time but just let it go - after about 10 minutes, I was finally in space. Now I can login without much difficulty.
However, as noted by others, alt-tabbing or alt-enter to switch from fullscreen to windowed mode will crash the client. In fact, just changing some gfx settings in the main menu can crash it.
There also doesn't seem to be a way to enable anti-aliasing. Space is pretty ugly with all those jaggies.

So much negative stuff, I thought I'd post something positive:
- Client quite a bit faster than before. - Alt+Tab and Alt+Enter works just fine. - Yeah, it's laggy, who would've thunk after that news announcement... 
I'm running two release clients and a test client right now, and it works just fine. There are a few little things wrong in the test client (background stars pop in and out rather than pulse slowly, and engine exhaust is missing), but overall it runs great.
Ciao, Aronis!

Well when I originally installed trinity and logged onto sisi, I was able to get in and everything went fine, although VERY VERY slow. Then I used alt-tab to get back to windows and noticed the eve client crashed. I did this about 3 more times and it crashed each time. I now can't get in at all and am sitting at the "entering game as" screen which other people here seem to be as well.

I hate to jump on the "This Sucks" bandwagon, but... the condition of the test server is really pathetic right now, lol. I've played Alphas and Stress Tests that were more playable than SiSi is right now.
I sat in the Move Me channel for close to an hour, waiting motionless in space, only to get kicked from the channel at random and was unable to rejoin due to server lag/lockup. I think I'll be sticking to TQ for a day or two until the "OMG NEW ENGINE MUST SEE!" craze has died down.

could you tell how the detection is working ingame as compared to the test tool available from the blog?
wine has the tool reporting the correct result while the game fails to detect the gf 6600 as sm3 capable ----------- - reduce light, medium and heavy drone rof (default 2 sec) - server side event filtering for turret and effects - module grouping for less server calls - fix grid loading isses

I am completely unable to connect to Singularity. I choose the server, but then it tells me that I have the wrong build and some business about not being able to locate patch info. It wants me to go to the support page, and when I open that, Internet Explorer crashes. Why won't it download the patch automatically? I'd really appreciate help. Thanks.

Ciao, Aronis!
Indeed! So many negatives.
Quite on the other hand, there's nothing special at all about my laptop (dual-core 1.8ghz, x1400 Mobility), and while running dual test clients I experience peak in-space fps of 80.
That's over 200% increase in performance on my end AFTER a jump from 16 - 24bit color depth.
In other words: Tranquility client: 16bit depth, 1024 x 768 x two clients, FPS = 10-30 Singularity client: 24bit depth, 1024 x 768 x two clients, FPS = 60-80
Now, there are a few crashes I'm experiencing that I can't seem to reproduce w/ any certainty. Otherwise, the new client is mega sexy.
Does the current Sisi client include the optimizations for multi-core systems? I read it will be supported in the winter release.

I'm afraid to say that so far, the performance of the new engine does not inspire.
Machine: Athlon XP 2500 1536Mb PC2700 DDR (Single channel) ATI Radeon 9800 Pro 2x 7200RPM 8Mb HDD (C: Windows + Pagefile, D: Games, both non fragmented) Windows XP SP2
Currently on Tranquillity I can expect framerates in station between 50-80, and in space between 40-80 which means running two clients at around 30-40 fps (multiple monitors). On Singularity, a single client is failing to break 40 fps in the station, and whilst I understand there are currently no art updates available I am unable to see any real difference between the "quality" of the rendering between the two, but as this clearly shows there is a visible difference between the performance of the two engines... and it doesn't seem to favour Trinity!
This said, I'll reserve judgement until the new art content is made available. What does have me slightly worried is the mention of "eve classic" though. Sounds to me like you intend to release your first paid for expansion or surely it would simply continue to be Eve as it has always been?

Nah, will be for free, like always and hopefully ever 
Client seems to perform quite good so far, windowed mode on one screen, i got around 140fps with the cam real close to a gate / station with some npcs acround. IŠll try if out in a few FFA fights ofc since this is really important.

Originally by: Azrael Maxim has anybody lost the controls for anti aliasing under advanced graphic options as well ?
Set it in the drivers. Works better anyway.
how do you do that?
Right-click on your desktop and select the video card control panel. Select the 3D settings area and set Antialiasing to the desired level (I find that 4x looks good enough at 1920x1200).
Works identical for ATI and NVIDIA (I have both). Setting AA in-game always gave me worse frame-rates, don't know why. ...

Can't even undock. Could be the server with 200+ people on right now, could be something graphicky. Bug report filed. Have others seen this?
To wit:
>> Undocking in ----, from ---- station. I get all the way to "Entering Space - Ship Ready" and the end of the bar, and then see "Abort Undock" in the window and stay in station. I can reproduce this any number of times, so I don't believe it has something to do with the node loading. Might be the new engine?

Well my character is currently disabled on sisi and I have to wait for the next mirror :(.
Most likely I will have to wait until trinity is patched to see anything.

P4 2.8 with 1GB Ram Nvidia 6800 GS 24-bit 1280x1024
I used to to have 90%+ CPU usage running eve and 24 fps if I was lucky. With whats running on Sisi now i run eve at 60% CPU and over 40 fps.

Awesome, I'm getting between 3-7 average fps in space. In an empty system With not even rats near me
That's running a 7600 GS btw with 512MB ram, my CPU and RAM is a bit worse though, 3.03ghz P4HT, 1GB DDR333

Originally by: Jocca Quinn So does the new engine actually use the graphics card more if it uses the old content?
Some stuff was given an overhaul, but in general the engine running the old content and code is very similar to what was there before, to maintain content compatibility. There are new code paths for new content.
Wait, you mean the new engine runs everything through the CPU before, unless you have the new content which runs through the graphics card?
Kinda screws over the say 4-5 year old PC running a 9600 pro or something. They'll still get choppy fps cause it's forcing a 5 year old graphics engine through the CPU, when the gfx card will be able to handle the game in classic mode very easily.
Think it's a bit srewy that the classic EVE runs like a dog on my comp, but the SM3 content will run fine with the same graphics card.
Hope you guys take the time to code the engine to run through the gfx card, whether you're using the new contect or not

Ahhh I can see your problem...
Lag on login is more likely due to the number of people on the test server rather than the client IMO, was on it earlier with 400 people, usually around 100.
Tnx, but more than 60 min by the loading character is already not lag :( And if i click on th window that i want to close, Vista tell me the program stopped working and try to find the bug.
And if i run both clients, SiSi and TQ, the TQ one need around 70MB memory as default, logged in, sitting in a station. By same logging my SiSi client needs 165MB. I dont see how that would have performance increase. Good that i have 2GB

Originally by: Oam Mkoll I can connect just fine. After selecting my char, I wait for the "entering game as.." bar to fill up. Then comes.. nothing. The game hangs at a pitch-black screen. No error msgs whatsoever, it happens every time. Sisi used to work fine for me until that recent patch.

Indeed Evil levels of stupidity itt.
New content comes later, the only thing we downloaded now is the client supporting dx80 cards. Not sure if it boosted my fps, my fps where always very changable from 90 till very high (260) at different scenes, and with this dx80 client its the same.
Only new problem i encountered was the minimize-problem, solved it with setting it in window-mode instead of fullscreen.
Am curious how the dx90 supporting client will be performing...

Even on my GF 5950 Ultra, which is pretty antique, i've got about 80-100% fps increase, both in station and in-space.
Stop whinning, people, prior going here and writing a post or two about 'wtf ccp you write a new crappy client' better upgrade your drivers. Most (if not every) crash issue is about bad audio/video/motherboard drivers.
Good job, CCP. Still waitin' for new graphics content
