Klyith posted:CCP more or less declared this to be an EULA violation, in that incredibly weaselly way they do when they write the rule super-broad but then say they will selectively enforce it and won't confirm or deny any specifics. is there actual any way they can track ontopreplica ? it doesnt seem to interfeer much with eve About local it is indeed very usefull .... its not about having more monitors but having information concentrated in a comfortable place in your view is way better. :/ So if i use ontopreplica and replicate all the screen in theory it''s fine. Sounds stupid how they try to make "switching windows" look like gameplay .

Denis posted:is there actual any way they can track ontopreplica ? it doesnt seem to interfeer much with eve It is not difficult for a program to get a list of other running programs and their active methods. If CCP wanted to look for OTR, they could detect it. But I'm pretty sure, without using the "click forward" feature of OTR (which I don't think works in any case), they would need to actively look for it. I think, anyways. OTR gets it's window picture from the window manager, not by hooking into the application it's displaying, and plenty of legit apps would do the same thing. It's one of those things that I think is 98% safe but that 2% chance I'm wrong is not worth taking. Especially when you can do other things to get the same result.

OTE does not touch the EVE client. It just uses the Windkws-provided preview functionality. Same as the Taskbar and Win+Tab.

I gotta give Grath credit, for such a big (and hated) name in Eve, he does go out solo, which is cool. Unlike his head Jokes aside, for some odd reason I felt like undocking the Astero to scan the chain today. Ended up with a killmark and a corpse.

The only way to hide the process from eve would be to fully sandbox one or the other. (Don't run eve in a virtual machine, that puts you in the intense scrutiny list. Because botters and hardwareid-banned people typically use VMs.) As I say, I really doubt they're looking for OTR specifically, or banning people for it now. But using it is taking a chance on a thing they've said is against the rules, which includes any overlay that does not display the entire eve window.

You could for example do the same thing with any of the major ways of streaming eve onto twitch, and there's no way they're going to look for and ban that software either. Against the EULA or not it's unenforceable. Khablam fucked around with this message at 23:07 on Jan 7, 2017 |

I know who dropped him, their comp appears to have been hosed up that night. Way too many loki's on the killmail and either Tib or Zungen shoulda fixed that before letting the fleet undock. Long story short they could have added about 2k more dps on field if they had done what they were supposed to do. Also zungen if you are reading this, letting one pilgrim come along for cap warfare... may not be the worst idea. 2013 me is feeling dirty suggesting that the pilgrim is a ship you should fly.

So whats the story on Citadels? Has CCP done anything to them other than letting them be couches for pilot's e-peens? Did they advance the final solution for the POS? TL;DR......reaction farms still a stick thing?

On the flip side, no repairing anything that's not fittable to a ship, so your inventory gets clogged with 1% damaged modules that you can't repackage unless you fit them to a ship and undock :\ And no insurance. But yeah, they're pretty bad rear end otherwise.

iospace posted:Quoting you because I have a question: how are thanatos fit these days? I'm just starting to get into caps, so I'm curious There's basically three go-to fits, one with shield buffer and one with armor buffer. You should probably pick whatever one fits best with your alliance, as most sane alliances standardize on either armor or shield. quote:[Thanatos, not poo poo shield] quote:[Thanatos, armor dual plate] Pretty much any capital should have a standard set of mods in their SMA so they can swap out as needed: travel fits, at least two heavy neuts, at least one capital neut, smartbombs, tackle, etc. Follow your alliance instructions there. That said, if your alliance supports shield capitals and you have Minmatar Carrier trained, I'd suggest getting a Nidhoggur instead of a Thanatos. The former has a fighter velocity bonus, the latter has a hit point bonus; in many situations, fighter travel time is more important. (General FYI, I've given up on the non-chill thread and unbookmarked it, so if you've got fitting or other questions, ask them here.)

I'm getting a Niddy, actually, but was more curious as to how a Thanatos would be fit for armor. Thanks! I'm probably going to crosstrain into the Lif and whatever the Gallente FAX is (I can't spell it worth a drat). quote:(General FYI, I've given up on the non-chill thread and unbookmarked it, so if you've got fitting or other questions, ask them here.)

iospace posted:I'm probably going to crosstrain into the Lif and whatever the Gallente one is (I can't spell it worth a drat). You may not want to. The Ninazu and Lif both have weird bonuses, and the Ninazu has a really awful slot layout. Apostle/Minokawa: * 5% bonus to RR amount * 4% bonus to resists * 5% bonus to capacitor size Lif/Ninazu: * 5% bonus to RR rate of fire * 7.5% bonus to active tank amount * 10% bonus to cap injector amount So, when it comes to repping stuff in Triage, their niche is that they can cycle their reps fast enough to hopefully land between big packets of damage and prevent you from being alphaed. But in exchange, they use significantly more capacitor for their reps, so they can't keep it up for an entire Triage cycle. Problem two: In order to make use of that injector bonus, you need to have an injector fitted -- otherwise, not only do you need more cap for your reps, but you have less cap to work with than the Apostle/Minokawa :\ That's not so bad for the armor-tanked Ninazu, but it's pretty bad for the Lif who wants to spend as many mids as possible on shield tank. Problem three: You can generally get just as much active tank out of an Apostle as you can out of a Ninazu -- resists contribute just as much towards active tanking as an active-tank bonus does. In fact, for any given set of lows, the Apostle ends up being within 2-3k EHP/sec of a Ninazu -- and then does better, because the Apostle has an extra low-slot to work with. From an FC perspective, given the choice between a Ninazu or Lif and no FAXes at all, I'll take what I can get... but I'd really rather see people in Apostles and Minokawas on average.
