The update from the Gamebryo engine to the Cryenigine2 was a huge graphical leap forward, Unfortunately MindArk didn't bother to update all the Entropia Universe 3d assets, All textures where redone and the 3d model format was changed but they had to be, to be compatible with the Cryenigine2, Over time MindArk has updated a few 3d assets in various places, flora, fauna, architecture ect, Though there are still hundreds of 3d models that are the same exact 3d models used when EU was running under the Gamebryo engine, These 3d assets are easily spotted due to the low polycount/basic geometry/textures, and if you were playing before the Cryenigine2 it's easy to see what 3d assets have changed and those that have not, This gives EU a very unbalanced and janky look were you have modern 3d assets mix in with prehistoric last generation 3d assets. To my understanding MindArk is rebuilding everything from the ground up for the import/update to the Unreal Engine so no more mismatched jankiness of 3d assets, I'm personally looking forward to seeing all the newly designed 3d assets and environments, It will be a breath of fresh air and a step in the right direction for the future of Entropia Universe.
