Could you please send a bug report (F12 - Report Bug) about this including screenshots of such examples? It would be great, if you could also check, if the problem goes away by disabling antialiasing.

Hey! Thanks for participating (even though it was a pretty small mass test)!
We were able to identify a few bugs and are still going through further data from the test.
2M SP were added to 88 characters on Singularity as small reward.

Yeah, we are currently investigating other options regarding rewards for future test, as well if we can improve our communication about the mass tests.

Hey!

We are planning a mass test on Singularity, on Thursday, April 13th, at 17:00 UTC (= EVE time) to test improvements to shadows and other changes.

What exactly is being tested?

• Changes to shadows - especially testing client performance and stability, but they should also look good.
• Changes to antialiasing - also mostly checking client performance and stability.
• Two server performance checks (for fleet warps and for combat).

The changes will be deployed to Singularity tomorrow, Wednesday,.

How to connect to Singularity for this test:

• Change the server from Tranquility to Singularity in the bottom right corner of the launcher and log in as normal.
• More detailed instructions are available ...

Do you happen to know which mission was affected by this? It would be awesome, if you could send a bug report about this.

This should have been corrected now in the latest build on Singularity. Thanks for your poke

Thank you all for helping with this mass test and especially those, who wrote up feedback! We identified several problems based on this mass test and the team is currently working on improvements based on this.
2M Skill points have been applied now to 156 character on Singularity.

Mostly to avoid killing other ships, but it also relates to missiles.

As far as I can see they are partially affected, but they are not using all the new
features. So feel free to bring them (but we don’t need too many of them).

Hey!

We are planning a mass test on Singularity, on Monday, March 6th, at 17:00 UTC (= EVE time) to test improvements to the audio for turrets.

What exactly is being tested?

• Client performance, stability and experience of the turret audio improvements in fleet fight situations.

Please note that at the time of writing this, those changes are not yet on Singularity.

How to connect to Singularity for this test:

• Change the server from Tranquility to Singularity in the bottom right corner of the launcher and log in as normal.
• More detailed instructions are available ...

There are still ships for 100 isk available on Singularity. Normally there is one station per constellation seeded with 100isk items.

Hi!

A new mirror is being deployed to Singularity today. I’ll update here as soon as everything is completed.

edit: The mirror process has been completed now and Singularity is back online. Pretty much everything is the same as last mirror. Skillpoints have been reapplied for the last 6 mass tests,

Contracts should be fixed with the next update on Sisi.

The next mirror is probably within the next few weeks, but potentially still depending on the date of the next mass test, as it would be best to combine this.

Sorry for the late reply, but: Thanks for the bug reports!

It was a problem with special characters in overview settings.

Singularity has been updated now and these problems (especially the black screen and buying things from the market) should be fixed now. If you find further problems, then please let us know (best would be if you write also a bug report).

Thanks a bunch, this helped! A fix for this is in the works!

Very sorry for the inconvenience.

Hey!

We are aware of those issues after the latest update and are looking into it.

Edit: Although: If you are affected by the black screen, then please send a bug report with logs. So far I don’t know yet, what is causing this.

Can you provide any details on what is happening? When does the game lock up? Are you using Windows? Which GPU?

As mentioned above, Singularity was taken down yesterday at 14:00 UTC and it will now stay closed to the public until the Uprising expansion launches.

Hey!

Thank you for participating and all your feedback and bug reports! I added 2M skill point to 169 characters on Singularity.

The test was pretty much a success and we gathered very useful data. We identified for example one performance bottleneck for activating emblems, but this is luckily a very harmless one. For the fleet watchlist we also found a client side problem with large lists, which is being worked on.
We are still busy going through further data and a lot of bug reports, which will hopefully lead to further improvements.

@Tialano_Utrigas Yeah, the LP cost has been reset for the offers, as this 0 LP deal was only meant for the mass test itself. I’m asking around internally on what the future plans are ...

Hey!

The emblems are now available for 0 LP in the LP store in Jita VI - Paragon Fulfilment Center. Feel free to get them now to prepare for the mass test.

Note: In certain situations, on the Singularity test server, corporation emblems will occasionally display a different logo instead of the actual corporation logo, e.g. when editing pre-existing logos or creating a new corporation.

Hey!

We are planning a mass test on Singularity, on Thursday, October 27th, at 17:00 UTC (= EVE time) to test the new corporation and alliance emblems.

What exactly is being tested?
The new Heraldry system, especially the impact of the new corp and alliance emblems on the client and server performance.

Beside this we are looking into the client performance and stability related to other changes (like ambient occlusion and AMD FSR).

How to connect to Singularity for this test:

• Change the server from Tranquility to Singularity in the bottom right corner of the launcher and log in as normal.
• More detailed instructions are available ...
