Daru Rhox	Posted - 2008.09.09 17:11:00 - [1] How cool would it be to paint our ship have a flame job done on a Punisher or racing stirps on a Apoc
Fifi LeFume No Trademark Obsidian Empire	Posted - 2008.09.09 17:13:00 - [2] maybe when they input ambulation, they should further develop it so they have a paintshop kind of store in station where you can choose designs for your ship
InsanlyEvlPerson Gallente Night-Stalkers	Posted - 2008.09.09 17:13:00 - [3] I would rather be able to move a slot on my slot layout than make it look different.... functional beauty before physical beauty.
Gun Sniper Amarr The Flaming Sideburn's	Posted - 2008.09.09 17:14:00 - [4] yet us put our crop logo on the ships that be cool kind of like ww2
Benco97 Gallente The Star League	Posted - 2008.09.09 17:25:00 - [5] I'm all for Corp logos but I don't think being able to all over paint the ship would be a good idea. For a start many of the ships have an inherent beauty to them that would be ruined, you'd see "Chav" ships everywhere and black would be the most expensive paint.. Logos yes, paint no. Originally by: P'uck You're a DUMBASS - bold italic underline at the VERY LEAST.
Mikal Drey Minmatar ORIGIN SYSTEMS Atlas Alliance	Posted - 2008.09.09 17:26:00 - [6] hey hey IBHKK (in before hello kitty kestrel)
Grarr Dexx Amarr The Cosa Nostra La Cosa Nostra Alliance	Posted - 2008.09.09 17:26:00 - [7] ibhka (apoc) Also, not viable, database would probably commit suicide under the added load.
CptEagle Gallente Genius Inc.	Posted - 2008.09.09 17:36:00 - [8] Originally by: Grarr Dexx ibhka (apoc) Also, not viable, database would probably commit suicide under the added load. Well, they could make it so only you can see the paint jobs on youre buddy list, or corp list, or the option like Capture Portrait so you can choose to download someones paint job manually. The transfer of the paint jobs themself could be client to client. And offcourse toggle-able.
SengH Black Omega Security Pandemic Legion	Posted - 2008.09.09 17:36:00 - [9] Edited by: SengH on 09/09/2008 17:37:10 painting ships was in beta 2/3 .. removed due to numerous issues regarding lag/database load etc. It got removed before even autopilot was implemented that's how bad an idea it was. Edit: I'm sure some people would intentionally make white noise skins to lag the database/ cause the size to increase exponentially.

Arik VanClaw Suddenly Ninjas	Posted - 2008.09.09 17:49:00 - [11] While letting everyone customize their paint jobs is not feasible due to aforementioned reasons, what if CCP ran some kind of regular contest where the pod pilot who won got to customize one of their ships skins?

After the CSM you honestly think this is a good idea?
Atsuko Ratu Caldari VSP Corp.	Posted - 2008.09.09 18:22:00 - [13] Originally by: Benco97 and black would be the most expensive paint.. Was an OK game
Taeq Minmatar New Interstellar Transportation Ltd.	Posted - 2008.09.09 19:08:00 - [14] Ohh! Yay! clears throat I hereby DEMAND pink paint cannisters for my target painter! Lets go redecorate some Amarr ships, finally the Minmatar grafitty guns gets some purpose.

Master Raydon	Posted - 2008.09.09 19:17:00 - [16] I'm all for the corp logos and I would love it if it was a "isk cost" option also... You can put a corp logo on your ship on some designated places (each ship would have 'em) and pay a designated amount of ISK to CCP for puting logo on your ship.
Gun Sniper Amarr The Flaming Sideburn's	Posted - 2008.09.09 19:21:00 - [17] Originally by: Master Raydon I'm all for the corp logos and I would love it if it was a "isk cost" option also... You can put a corp logo on your ship on some designated places (each ship would have 'em) and pay a designated amount of ISK to CCP for puting logo on your ship. i would not mind to pay a price to do it it might go something like 5k isk for frigs 100k isk for crusiers 500k isk for a bc and a million for a bs or something making the bigger the ship the more it cost
SengH Black Omega Security Pandemic Legion	Posted - 2008.09.09 19:29:00 - [18] Originally by: ZephyrLexx small technical issues shouldn't get in the way of improving the game and providing a better gaming experience to the end user, you shoudln't concern yourself with such problems, let CCP handle it. tool. haha small technical issues. If CCP cant even handle differentiating between BPOs/ BPCs due to the extra load it would generate on the database . What makes you think they can give every ship a unique skin.
Setarcos Nous	Posted - 2008.09.09 20:10:00 - [19] While it would be neat to paint our ships... As others have mentioned, the feasibility or storing and transferring those paintjobs is unknown. It may be doable, it may not. However, an option I would like is simply to choose one or two colors (or a scheme maybe). In this manner, a Gallente player could pilot an Amarr ship with a green Gallente color scheme, or an Amarr pilot could have a Gallente ship with a gold Amarr color scheme. Allowing a few color choices would allow player corps to make their ships uniform, and not necessarily the same as the general faction schemes.
Zhilia Mann	Posted - 2008.09.09 20:49:00 - [20] Originally by: ZephyrLexx tool. good. we're going a long way towards a civil discussion. despite that, i'll reply. Originally by: ZephyrLexx small technical issues shouldn't get in the way of improving the game and providing a better gaming experience to the end user, you shoudln't concern yourself with such problems, let CCP handle it. again, while being civil, learn. seriously, if you like the game, just sit an learn for awhile. this has been suggested many, many times before, and it has been dismissed pretty much outright for server load reasons. i'm assuming that's what SengH meant when he said his piece: it won't work. it's been suggested. it won't work. and look, i'm not saying someone should automagically hop on the forums and know that. but i am saying that one shouldn't call someone else a tool before judging.

Asuka SoryuLangley	Posted - 2008.09.09 20:52:00 - [21] BOOOOOOORIIIIIIIING!!! So boring post comin'up periodly................................
StinkFinger Caldari State War Academy	Posted - 2008.09.09 21:23:00 - [22] no u cant cuz it'll create too much lag when loading up a system if u think jita is bad now, wait until the n00bz try to color their ships like their stupid spore creatures..... Originally by: Karanth That's like sitting on your hand till it goes numb, so it's like a stranger. It's not as satisfying, and I'LL know the difference.
Felix Dzerzhinsky Caldari Wreckless Abandon Un-Natural Selection	Posted - 2008.09.09 22:00:00 - [23] painting ships is unnesssisary - the ships look great as is. ---- GO BLUE!!
Bokabeus	Posted - 2008.09.10 03:17:00 - [24] Edited by: Bokabeus on 10/09/2008 03:18:21 Why we should not allow custom skins: QED. But I think corp logos would be kind of cool. Hardly at the top of my wishlist, though. And I would not be prepared to pay for it if the price is increased lag.
Rawr Cristina Caldari Omerta Syndicate	Posted - 2008.09.10 03:41:00 - [25] I would wub CCP 4 eva if I could do custom colours - Infectious -
Sergeant Spot Black Eclipse Corp Band of Brothers	Posted - 2008.09.10 04:51:00 - [26] Originally by: Daru Rhox How cool would it be to paint our ship have a flame job done on a Punisher or racing stirps on a Apoc While it would be nice eye candy (which is a good thing...), as others have stated, it would also be a lag generator, and no doubt some will generate lag deliberately. Play nice while you butcher each other.
Schnitzar	Posted - 2008.09.10 08:51:00 - [27] What would you think of EvE if you undocked to a bunch on pink and yellow ships bobbing around in space? I think too many people would take the **** and it would make the game look very cheap and tackey.
Katarlia Simov Minmatar Cowboys From Hell	Posted - 2008.09.10 09:31:00 - [28] Originally by: Schnitzar What would you think of EvE if you undocked to a bunch on pink and yellow ships bobbing around in space? I think too many people would take the **** and it would make the game look very cheap and tackey. This man speaks truth. I'm in favour of the corp logo thing, maybe a one or two colour flash on wingtips of whatever, then the logo on top. Basically so your corp/alliance looks more unified and have some kind of group identity. Dunno about databases and so forth, just saying it would be nice :). However, under those circumstances, i'd have to ask that corps get to properlly design their own logos like alliances do.

Allowing a few color choices would allow player corps to make their ships uniform, and not necessarily the same as the general faction schemes. Good idea. While im no 3d graphics pro, i'd imagine it would be possible to designate a couple of colours in the ship texture maps to be filled in by a shader that got color information from character, corp or maybe alliance info. This means only a tiny little bit of information is added to the information in the db, while the client takes the load when the design is actually drawn. To avoid horrible-looking ships, the colour choices could be limited to colours that go reasonably well together. It would be cool if the materials could be altered a bit as well, allowing changes to which parts of the ship are shiny/matte/metallic (it is my understanding that the variables that control this are part of the color information used when rendering).

For a start many of the ships have an inherent beauty to them that would be ruined, you'd see "Chav" ships everywhere and black would be the most expensive paint.. Logos yes, paint no. yeah this, though i personally cldnt care less, less lag with no logo/paint is the best Proudly annoying FC's since 2007 Please resize signature to the allowed size of 400 x 120 pixels.
