The latest dev blog about a graphics revamp for the ships in EVE Online:

CCP has recently published a Dev Blog detailing their continued commitment to improving the wonderful visual experience that is EVE online.

As they stated,

Revamping every* ship in EVE is an intense process, leveraging the entirety of our art team from concept artists to tech artists and programmers to QA. It takes extreme staff coordination and resource commitment, not to mention a lockout of publishing while the work is underway (lest an incomplete asset somehow make it into game without appropriate textures and shaders). Overall, this overhaul of every hull is oeuvre hell.

We’ve done it twice in the last six months….

The result of that research is “V5++,” a complete reworking and repacking of all ship texture maps into a new system which works with new shaders.

For more information, we encourage you to read the dev blog in full at the eve online website: http://community.eveonline.com/news/dev-blogs/the-many-additions-of-v5plusplus/

On the weekend of the 11th of May, EVE University conducted a three-day operation codenamed “OP Homulilly” under the command of veteran Wormhole Campus members Arimos and Alex Robles.

During these three days, a University fleet invaded the wormhole system of J235117 and successfully evicted resident corporation Tempest Legion, members of notorious high-sec wardec alliance Absolute Defiance.

Over the course of the operation, upwards of 20 billion ISK in hostile assets were destroyed, and multiple billion ISK worth of loot were donated to University coffers.

A full AAR for the operation is publicly available on the EVE University forums:

EVE University vs Brave Newbies Event! Fun was had!

On Saturday 28th Feb, the two best-known Learning Corps in New Eden met up in low security space for a pre-arranged newbro battle!

On the day of the event, the Uni had over 80 ships in the travel fleet, many of them out on their first ever fleet! BNI fielded even more pilots for the fights and also provided a *protection* fleet to ensure no third parties spoiled our T1 fun (thanks for that, guys!), and fun it definitely was!

Here’s a screenshot of the beautiful E-Uni ‘blob’ at the staging system!

We fought several ’rounds’, reshipping quickly in between, popping a crazy amount of ships, and then held a free-for-all at the Sun before helping some folks who wanted to get home quick by ‘pod express’!

In my opinion, we all ‘won’ with this event, and the overwhelming opinion from those who took part was:
“10 out of 10 would do it again”!

Thanks Wilhelm Knicklicht (for the Uni) and Kira Tsukimoto (for Brave) for getting together to get this event set up, and thanks to everybody on both sides for making it possible,
with donations of ships, isk, help or by turning up to fight!

E-Uni are looking forward to the next time!

On the weekend of the 24th of October, EVE University conducted a three-day operation codenamed “OP GriefSeed” under the command of teaching manager Titus Tallang.

During these three days, a University fleet invaded the wormhole system of J144739 and successfully evicted resident corporation Hounds of Haides, who University intelligence indicated as having extremely close ties to notorious high-sec wardec alliance Public-Enemy, going so far as to shelter ships belonging to that alliance within their POS shields for prolonged periods of time on multiple occasions.

Over the course of the operation, upwards of 4.5 billion ISK in hostile assets were destroyed.

A full AAR for the operation is publicly available on the EVE University forums:

Friends,

EVE University is pleased to bring you the first ever Podcast. Your hosts Kazon Necht and Danielle en Divalone will host a podcast every three weeks that centers around EVE University and the Newer Player Experience. Each podcast will features various guests from the University and EVE in general as we explore different areas of the University and how they impact EVE in general. We will also discuss the most recent release as well as the upcoming patch announcements which will also focus on how it affects the newer player experience and EUni members in general.

We are excited to have our first show center around introducing EVE University to the playerbase as well as introducing our CEO Azmodeus Valar to those who serve with him in the University and ILN. We ask Azmo questions about himself and his time in EVE, his ambitions with the Uni going forward and then we take time to analyze the upcoming patch, Phoebe, and how it will affect our players.
