Cheers, I will bug when I am on.

I have a PC, Extractors, storage and refinery place now. So think I am back on track, kind of.

My 'basic' setup would be something like

2 ECU's both extracting 1 part of a P2 schema
2 Basic industrial - to convert P0 to P1
1 Advanced industrial - to work on your P2 schema
1 Spaceport - for storage and launching

2 ECU > Spaceport > BIF > Spaceport > AIF > Spaceport.

Note the way you 'buffer' each process with a storage facility (your CC works as well but has much less storage than the SP)

You want to be aiming to extract 6000 P0 per hour at your Extractors to keep the setup 'fed'.

You should be able to make 24*5 P2 per day they sell for ~8000, minus taxes is around 850,000 isk per day.
 
A newbie thorax fit is something like this.

x1 med repper
x2 armour resistance mods
x2 damage mods

x5 med blasters

x1 afterburner
x1 webby
x1 cap recharger/another web

x5 light drones/+ spares.

Get drones to 4, cruiser to 4, medium hybrids to 4 before taking it out, you should also have all cap skills to at least 4.

If you want to pvp I'd go the 1600mm plate + small guns (for a low SP character).

On a side note.

WTF is with the stars?, I thought I was having a migraine by the way they were pulsing & really bright - it looked wrong (never did it before).

In total honesty the vexor is more friendly to newer players, as you don't need to use med guns + drones are easier to train for.
 
Re: Planetary Interaction. Have got a bit addicted to this recently as other TXSI members know.... Thought I'd mention here what I have setup incase anyone wants to try it.

One my alt account I have a dedicated Factory planet which looks like the below screenshot, then 4 planets doing pure extraction of minerals and refining.
PI_lotsofrobotsyo.jpg

Launchpad on the left has Toxic Metals and Chiral Structures deposited at it, the one on the right takes the Precious Metals and Reactive Metals. These factories then put the refined commodities back in the nearest Launchpad. There are 8 of these factories on either side.
Both Launchpads route the refined commodities over to the 4 advanced factories in the middle (2 above and 2 below the command centre)
This will build 288 Robots per day that get dumped in the storage depot at the bottom. I can then expedite this to a launchpad whenever I want to collect it. I was going to use a launchpad here but didn't have enough cpu. Part of me would love to get CCU5 to get enough powergrid and cpu to have 4 launchpads, one for each refined material so I can leave it unnattended for longer. Uses it up so quick at the moment!

Based on Jita prices that's about 16.7m isk per day ;)
Doesn't have to be laid out exactly like that, but I'm a bit OCD (it seems) and it looks good :p

Back when PI first launched i had a similar factory planet producing all the stuff required for producing Mobile labs, i could buy all the raw materials and drop them into the planet and extract them a few hours later and make a mobile lab at around 20 mil profit per lab, was fantastic, sadly didn't last long though probably about a week and a bit doing it very lazily. Just wish i had more capital at the time so i could've had multiple similar planets.

tl;dl factory planets are awesome.
 
Yeah I have seen a few videos on factory planets looks good but not sure I have the resources just yet :) Looks impressive though

I pretty much followed Alphanes idea and its working well at the mo, little acorns and all that.
 
Hello

Been meaning to try out Eve for a few years now but I heard you had to put quite some time into it and its a lot different to other MMO's, anyway got some free time on my hands now and thought id have ago at the 14 day free trial. Unfortunately I have ran into a problem which I cant seem to resolve, I have created an account and downloaded the game, I log in and chose a race but when I click next to go to bloodline the game just crashes and I get the error CCP ExeFile has stopped working. I would have gone to the official forums but I cant make a post as I have no character. Ive been searching all yesterday and today to try fix this problem but to no avail, Ill list what ive tried so far and hopefully some of you may have some idea on what needs to be done.

- Uninstalling/Reinstalling
- Reinstalling graphics drivers
- reverting to older graphic drivers
- changing in-game settings (higher/lower)
- turning on/off SLi
- turning on/off second monitor
- using repair tool
- clearing cache with in-game option and deleting the folder
- running in safe mode
- running as admin
- running windowed/fullscreen
- Enabling/Disabling Load Staion enviroment (read it can cause crashes on startup)


System Specs:

Intel i7 2600k @ 4.2Ghz
2x Nvidia GTX 480 SLi
Asrock extreme 4 Gen 3
8GB Corsair xms3 RAM
Corsair AX1200

Hope someone can shed some light as my 14 day trial is running out and im very bored!

Thanks

I can't think of anything else to say than dropping clocks. You've done everything that most likely even CCP customer support would tell you to do.

Just tried putting all clocks back to stock and still crash at same point, thanks for the suggestion though was worth a try. Just annoyed that I cant get it to work and cant post on there technical support forum as I dont have a charcter!

Make sure you have the latest VC++ runtimes installed as there was some changes there last patch.

Just checked and when I try install the ones from microsoft it says newer versions were detected so I guess I have the latest ones.

Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 x64 Redistributable - 10.0.30319 21/01/2012
Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 x86 Redistributable - 10.0.40219 12/01/2012

Thanks for the suggestion.

Copy pasted your post to the official forum here

Can't remember if you can read them without an account but I'll keep you updated

Thanks very much and yes I can read the thread, hopefully someone will be along to help!
 
Last night I won 2 solo engagements and lost 1.

The one I lost was my comet vs. a beam coercer (I was so bad).

I killed a crapacal with my cynabal (nerf the cynabal) and a rifter with my daredevil (balanced and working as intended).

Still annoyed about the coercer. Monged up my approach and wound up 7km off him with my MWD off moving at base speed. Terrible. I need to practice manual stopping more.

disable SLI?

edit: oh oops you have

tried installing it a second time onto a different drive letter?
 
Thanks for all the suggestions but I've finally managed to fix it, found another thread on eve forums where people were experiencing the same problem. Its something to do with either the latest Nvidia driver 295.xx or the Physx driver a Dev posted so i reverted back to the latest WHQL driver after a cleanup of all the old Nvidia drivers.
and it seems to have worked, Success!

edit: Alphane if you could post on that thread you made on eve forums that its been resolved that would be great, cant seem to post still must be as Im a trial account.

Be good to post the solution in that thread to incase anyone else is having that issue.

IIRC one of the 295.xx drivers has a bad problem with memory leaking on video playback which could be the problem, the game does use ApeX (PhysX) simulations for the walking (lol) in stations/character creation aspects to.
