| Want your guide on eve-guides.com? Send me an evemail in game to Braaage with a link to your guide (if it's on EVE-O) or hosted elsewhere and I will happily give credit where credit is due. There are a lot of really good guides on EVE-O forums which I have tried to contact the original authors and received no response, this may be due to them no longer playing EVE. |
| Game Time Codes and EVE-Online Trial Accounts, both these can be purchased using the graphics to the right, they will generate income for myself and will not cost you anymore than normal. These will help me keep the site afloat and running, so please when you buy either use the links to the right. You can buy any GTCs for any MMO through the link not just EVE GTCs. |

This is NOT a sanctioned email from CCP. Do NOT click the link in the email, just delete the email and carry on as normal. CCP or any organisation for that matter will never ask you for your username and/or password in an email. Although the link looks like it's legit it does not resolve to that address SO DON'T CLICK IT. If you have clicked the link and have entered your username/password go straight to eve-online's website and change your password. If you can't change it contact a GM immediately.
Server Status Page
I've added a server status tab which shows you the state of the EVE-Online servers including test servers. The page will poll the servers when you load the page and there is no auto refresh so it will not hammer the eve-online servers. Please don't abuse this function by hammering the page refresh button.
Character Generator online
I've added in the new Character Generator and altered the colourings slightly to make it easier on the eyes (black on all that white/grey wasn't very appeasing) :).
I hope you like it.
Character Generator Competition - Results
First place goes to Squerl (Broggum)
Second place goes to Parallel Starwanderer
Third place goes to the remaining 3 entries who will all get 500M each.
Judging
It wasn't easy at first I can tell you and became a game of finest detail that won the day. Two entries unfortunately had attribute figures wrong in more than one place and this ultimately lost them a chance at first place.
Broggum on the other hand added a pretty neat feature into his character generator that will allow me to post codes so you can see the outcome of different races and professions.
Well done everyone and thank you for participating, you should see the winning character generator later this week on eve-guides.
Trinity 1.1 Patch -Tip of the day
The Trinity 1.1 patch brought us welcome pages, whilst these are good for the novice player they are EXTREMELY annoying to the veteran/experienced player. These welcome pages can be turned off completely in one go, press esc - click general settings tab and untick show welcome pages.
Reversal of changes
Well I managed to figure out how to get videos out in the same format as the older video making program, so I made the template back to what it was. I've added in the Improved booster POS reaction video into the POS - Booster section. I still have 5 more videos to make before the booster section is complete, but this should be easier now I've figured out the settings to make the videos the same as the old program.
Changes a foot...
I decided to upgrade the program I use to make the videos as the new version has some neat things you can do (like zoom in). Problem is it doesn't seem to want to output the video in a decent quality size like the old version did. So I've had to make a few changes, the whole template has had to be widened as to fit in the new videos. I've also had to drop the graphics up top as a temporary measure.
I'm going to upload part 1 of 4 in the booster manufacturing guide to see what you think. Post in the shoutbox what you think of the new videos, particularly the new zoom in feature - you'll find them off the POS section (Booster Production in Part 1 - Standard Boosters).
Booster Production Guide.... stuck
Edit - not stuck anymore thanks to CCP - guide from start to finish will be here soon™..... watch this space
