I am not quite what is being referred to as tech3 by eve people, but new ships you can "build" out of parts to make kinda custom ones is coming...I think it was march...next year.
As to DX10, I've not heard of it and don't think they are working on it. DX10 runs like ass in the games it is in, and doesn't even look very good doing it IMO. Plus it would only work for vista users. And they recently added an updated graphics client. I certainly wouldn't be working on a dx10 renderer if I were running EVE.

Vista didn't really take off so there's not much market for a DX10 client. This may change when Windows 7 starts shipping.

Your wrong you know. Its more likely do to with what the next guy said about vista/dx10 hardware sales. Still I hope it or a DX10/DX11 version comes along at sometime soon or with windows 7 as it will look bling :)

Well, Enlighten works best on DX 10. Under DX9.0c .. not so good. --- "Multiple exclamation marks are a sure sign for a diseased mind." -Terry Pratchett |

there would be no use for eve to have a DX10 client anyways, since they would have no use for the shaders that it would enable in the first place, so unless they are going to revamp the graphics again...its basically useless.

I wouldn't mind if Trinity would go to version 3.
Well, basically the facts are like that: We have the fancy models, but the effects are the same as in the basic client. In DirectX 10, particle effects are working way faster and more effective than in DX9. I would really like to see those particle effects realized - I saw a movie of a Thorax under the effect of a NOS... --- "Multiple exclamation marks are a sure sign for a diseased mind." -Terry Pratchett |

I'm hoping if they come out with a DX10 client it won't be like when Half Life 1 was ported ot source by Valve. If CCP does port it to DX10 would it help with lag issues or hinder?
