MotherMoon Huang Yinglong	Posted - 2009.02.09 19:09:00 - [1] Edited by: MotherMoon on 09/02/2009 19:10:10 Originally by: H Zebra i play in window mode at 1280 x 768.running 3 or 4 clients at a time, having something that covers the half the screen and isnt easy to see with other windows open isnt a help imo. oh i know it looks shiney, but practical it isnt zeb so they just need to fix it. clam down. p.s.(other than no close button and such it looks and works wonders on 1900x1200 The fact that you now have you items, and ammo and cargo all in the same window is a step forward. no more need more multiple windows.

MotherMoon Huang Yinglong	Posted - 2009.02.10 08:00:00 - [3] Originally by: Tanhar I am afraid with current concept moving/resizing/pinning this window is impossible. It is all designed with your ship proudly showing in the center hole. From my personal view, it is a "cool" feature made just for the sake of "looking cool", shrugs. After a few months into the game the last thing you worry about is to see a 1000th time how cool is your ship. If it is the hint of upcoming UI change - will we have a hole like that, lets say, in a market window ? With module icon proudly showing of ? Lies, I alway care how cool my ship looks, as do most people that play video games. THe issue is, most people play eve to play spreadsheets online. This needs to be fixed, even if it drives out older players.
MotherMoon Huang Yinglong	Posted - 2009.02.10 08:04:00 - [4] Originally by: Arakidias The window is okay, but it badly needs a "close window" button on the actual window, not behind it. also it needs to have those side parts not block the background for clicking. Anywhere that is not a menu should be clickable. also, like with the middle UI, it should have buttons to fold in the sides. SO if you don't care about having your items right there, or don't want to see the overview of your stats, you can fold them in, and out of the way.

How is that any way practical. oh i added a mod to my ship but i do not care what it does or how it effects teh ship because the interface has a massive doughnut in the middle that i can see my ship through. wow form over function wins again well t's like how you ca hide your modules. there is no real reason to do it, but you have the option. I was just saying it because for intance, I know how I like to set up my ships. I don't need that little things on the side anymore, so let me hide it.

This needs to be fixed, even if it drives out older players. Not that I admire spreadsheets too much... but I love your logic (OK, maybe it is just bad wording). Here, I fixed it for you: "This needs to be fixed, even if it drives out most players." Good look - not equal to bad functionality. At least it shouldn't be. lol, no that's what I mean. In fact I'm all for eve having a "easy" UI and a "hardcore" UI.

MotherMoon Huang Yinglong	Posted - 2009.02.10 22:13:00 - [8] hey, crazy idea here. within the circle you coud render all graphics as vector graphics on blue. You know, like you did for eve tv when you did the ship profiles. Makes the ship kinda look like a blueprint. Then apon swapping say, a tech 3 part, highlight the part your changing in real time on the vector blueprint looking circle in the middle. Or when your adding a cap recharger have it highlight, X-ray style, it highlights a part of the ship to show like, your upgrading that part. ys this wouldn't make it in with the next expansion but... If you read this pass it on to the art team, because I bet they will think it's a call idea. edit:instead of just blue, make it blue fo caldari, red for minmatar, green for ... you get the idea.

MotherMoon Huang Yinglong	Posted - 2009.02.11 00:38:00 - [11] Originally by: Dr Resheph New fitting window is actually a step backwards from the current one. The only thing it has going for it is more interesting visuals. But even if you iterate and improve a dozen times, at best you're going to end up with the same functionality. Which begs the question.. What is the goddamn point of this change? all modules now in one place, no need to work around items you can't fit on ships less lag when fitting easily drag ammo to cargohold easily fit ammo to all guns at the same time drone bay window built into fitting window item window built into fiting window 5 windows all opened in one! no need to have multiple window open any longer. shows what your passive shield tank is/active.

That was a given, the current was would have caused an uproar. :p I'd like to point out that all the space inside the circle is wasted. Players don't care much about seeing their ship's appearance when they're addiing or removing modules, drones and ammos. That's quite a bit of space you could use reduce the fitting screen size. I care, stop talking for "the players" seriously, **** you.

I speak only for myself, and what I want to see. no more, no less. I don't make claims of "the playerbase likes the new fitting window!" or "you know this is a terrible idea" or "this is a good idea" no I THINK this is good I THINK this is bad. and yes to the above, in my perfect world player feedback would not included non-CSM members speaking for me. if you read any of my posts I believe that people have a point, there should be a choice. The window should be movable. Lots of great feed back here. But I can't stand it when someone says "hey your playerbase thinks this, did you you know that?" drives me crazy.
MotherMoon Huang Yinglong	Posted - 2009.02.11 11:28:00 - [15] Edited by: MotherMoon on 11/02/2009 11:28:34 Originally by: H Zebra just give the playerbase the option to use the new and the old fitting window...... that way teh whole playerbase is happy regardless yeah that's exactly what I suggested... wow reading comprehension ftl. I'm not *****ing about the fitting window, nevermind.
MotherMoon Huang Yinglong	Posted - 2009.02.11 11:44:00 - [16] Originally by: H Zebra we all have our opitins and untill ccp say YES teh players will get teh choice, we are stuck with the prospect of the new window to be honest, the reason a choice is the best option imo is for the same reason ambulation will work. new features are optional and not forced on the players. In another thread I proposed the idea of giving the player the ability to submit their own UIs for the fitting window, and let players download offical ones that are approved by CCP. so if you don't like the old or the new... make your own!
MotherMoon Huang Yinglong	Posted - 2009.02.11 12:18:00 - [17] Originally by: Jason Edwards Cant the game detect if you have subsystem slots instead... then display them there. How many people will actually need tech 3? I'm thinking we might get to add on pieces to more ships someday.
