When is CCP going to released avatar character so we can walk around in our ships or their NPC ships and others etc., the one they talked about releasing?
THe one that kinda like what Microsoft did with their game Freelancer which is similar to EvE-online but with opposite then EVE-Olnine has now.

A date hasn't been announced, but if you go to tentonhammer you can see a video of a 'first draft' of walking through stations and it was -very- well done for not being close to finished yet. They also said they are waiting until the graphics update to do more with it so that they can do it better and make it worth it. That way it will also transition better into when they -eventually- add avatar combat.
I read somewhere it was being aimed for Revelations 3, they were hoping by the end of this year.
Nope. Trinity 2 (new graphics engine) is in Revelations 3. The avatars are still in early development.
Last i hear it was currently slated for November 200 so a while yet id say.

To clarify a few points. The Trinity 2 engine upgrade, which is needed for the future ambulation project, could be completed as early as november whereas Rev3 is slated for December. Ambulation is going to come sometime in 2008 according to the latest video interview from leipzig.
Hopefully they will provide more info at the fanfest in november, or even better a real high-res trailer of it.
The meeting room in the video looked amazing. There was a huge table for everyone to sit at, and in the center was an enormous 3D galaxy map like the one in-game that rotated and such for planning. Looked like something you would see in a movie.
