A lot of people miss them, here at CCP many of us miss them too and I won't be surprised if in the future we decide to look at them again. In another thread I pointed out that we are looking to hire effect artists and trails are just another effect  |

Now that youve managed to get ships to (almost always) warp with their noses forward rather than sideways, there is room to create effects that help the enhance ships landing on or leaving grid |

Big if, load is serious business. Just because we really want something doesn't mean it's a good idea to just do it  |

But...but... Isn't effects overhaul supposed to be a part of the winter expansion? "If in the future" just sounds so Soon™-ish. |

Me too! I been thinking this since the day they disappeared. I still remember thinking how totally badass the green engine trails for some of the Gallente T2 ships were. It may be somewhat arbitrary, but they made EVE feel just a little more epic somehow. Especially when I threw my drones at my enemies, or was just sitting there with the 5 little engine trails of my drones making a shield around my dear Vexor. Also, I my the super-awesome lightning effect from the old cyno and JB jump-effects. Jaw-dropping cool the first time I saw it.
Back to the engine trails: I always figured they were dropped cause they were load-heavy, but what if the sweet old-school trails a client-based option? Like toggling the drawing of turrets on ships, so the we could disable it if we wanted the performance, but we could still have our shiny-awesome engine trails. |

The trails do look rather pretty, so I vote yes for their return.
Q: what was the cyno effect? |

I must be the only person who doesn't miss them, in fact I like the way it is now. Always thought they looked a bit cheesy myself so no don't bring em back.  |

I miss the trails that you used to get when you were taveling fast or just coming out of warp it made incoming ships look soo much cooler, im guessing they were removed because they when multilped 1000 times took up far too much GPU load but couldnt you just have an option to turn them off or on, or is there an option to turn them on because im usually running eve at like 100 fps and its a bit pointless seeing as my screen is only 50Hz
