Graphical Controller Optimization - Mass test

Dedicated capsuleers, 

Your testing prowess is once again requested. On 2 October, from 17:00-19:00 UTC, a Singularity mass test will assess an upcoming client optimization that reduces CPU load by optimizing the frequency of graphical animations based on camera distance. What this means for you is that the EVE client will run a bit smoother, with no negative impact on gameplay or visuals – it’s a win-win! 

Why This Matters 

The optimization cuts unnecessary background calculations, improving client performance without changing anything you see. Visuals stay the same, gameplay remains unaffected, you’ll simply feel smoother performance. 

What to Do 

Change the server from Tranquility to Singularity in the bottom-right corner of the launcher and log in as normal (more detailed instructions are available here). Join the in-game channel “masstesting” and follow the MOTD instructions.  

Look closely at visual effects tied to gameplay, ship behaviors, module activations, telegraphing VFX, and so on. If you notice any delays or issues, please file a bug report in game or join the discussion on the EVE Forums.

Your participation in the test ensures that New Eden runs as smoothly as it looks.
