First off i am currently deployed to Afghanistan and have internet about as fast as bad dial up and will not always stay up... I have already tried to DL the expansion via launcher and tried to run the repair each time they fail, I have been searching for a torrent since it released and have not found one yet. As well as looked thru the forms for one, to no avail.
If any one has a link to a torrent for retribution or know where i can get one from, please pass on the info. would be very appreciated. All I want to do is be able to log in and que up skills... |

Not sure if this will help but sometimes I am travelling and can't be online for the full download and I had a similar problem with patches and all that for many games.
I went to a free download manager for this, it does everything I need in the US, now sure if it works in Afganistan but give it a look.
LINK: http://www.freedownloadmanager.org/index.htm I found it very useful since 2010 and haven't had any issues with it. It just keeps DLing each time it has an uplink until it's all done, and very good UI, hope that is what your looking for, it has a Torrent Feature in there also, and alot more.
Best luck, from a US Army Vet, 2/64th AR, 3ID - Rouge Battalion, Marne Div. Look at all the Macks in local...impressive...very impressive...I see you have fashioned a new exhumer...much like you father's...your skills as a miner are now complete...indeed you are powerful as CCP Devs have foreseen. 223 people are confused. |

Don't have an answer for you, but the launcher will auto resume broken downloads and the CDN's bandwidth is good. I don't see why you should be having issues with it even on a slow line. Patch size if 1.5GB, it'll take hours/days. Don't bother with repair before patching, data payload is unoptimized/uncompressed and larger.

I too would like to get some info on this. The Internet at my workplace is iffy at best. I tried it yesterday and got to 500-ish gb and the line have up. Today, it didn't auto-resume. Any sort of help would be appreciated.
p.s Does a download manager resume Eve client downloads? |

Check this thread - https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=92005&p=19 Looks like they may have a zipped version that you can DL with any third-party downloader.
They need to fix the launcher to be more robust. Best I've seen are WoT (World of Tanks) DL scheme ... simple custom torrent, effective.

sorry I should have posted the link to the offline download link.
Go Here: http://community.eveonline.com/download/?fallback=1&
Use the Free Download Manager to do this, but just right click on it [once that is installed] and you will have the choices on the menu to download it, use the last of the 4 FDM options for each and it will download them a bit at a time until you have each one, then do the same for the patch, then you have a backup install of the latest version and the patch if you need it on your HD and no worries, I keep the newest of each on my HD both for backup and also for test server installations.

Thanks for your help,

Might be old fashioned, but you could have somebody state-side download and burn you a copy of the offline installer onto a DVD and mail it to your APO. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZTzA_xesrL8 |

I've noticed a number of people downloading the client, and that's perfectly fine. But if you're looking to help our fellow EVE pilot out by seeding I recommend the following, faster method since CCP's bandwidth is significantly more than my own.
- Download my created torrent file and run it in your chosen torrent client.
- After it has had a few minutes to start, stop the download
- Download all three files from here to the EVE Online - Retribution Offline Installer directory created by the torrent.
- Overwrite all the things.
- Force your torrent client to Recheck the data. uTorrent does this by Right-clicking the torrent, and Force Re-Check.
- It'll confirm a 100% file and once started again you can properly seed.

I feel claustrophobic just reading this thread
I was in afghanistan 05-06, and iraq to shut the party down in '11
I know what you're thinking--snail mail disks would continually arrive at least one patch behind, and therefore ineffective.
good luck, stay safe.

I think I have some issues with getting a clear upload through
I'm running a couple torrents besides this one, and I'm able to upload at 3-4MB/s on the others
the EVE torrent is trickling at zero to maybe 24kb/s... I've uploaded only 4.4GB so far.
suggestions? I'm using Utorrent 3.2 Want To Adopt: any 2003 children to work as passive income minor alts in the PLEX trade.. |

I'm on a few more trackers that weren't included in the initial torrent, just because. You're welcome to add to them as well.Quote:udp://tracker.openbittorrent.com:80/announce

udp://fr33domtracker.h33t.com:3310/announce
udp://tracker.istole.it:80/announce
udp://tracker.openbittorrent.com/announce
Aside from that, there's not a lot of requests. I'm not often going above 305 kB/s upload, if that helps.
Check that you're allowing DHT (Preferences > BitTorrent), add those trackers, and test if stopping the other seeds increases the upload of our EVE torrent. If it does then you might want to increase the allowed upload slots, total allowed connections, and check your bandwidth cap in the uTorrent settings (Preferences > Bandwidth)
Edit: Thanks for helping out, guys. CCP: There's a lot of people making use of this torrent and I bet many of them would be happy if there was something sanctioned or official (especially since I can't keep this up, bandwidth limits in the US) |

You only need to download the repair tool. It is quite small.

To quote the OP, " tried to run the repair each time they fail,"
Because his connection is unreliable, the Repair tools fails to download the missing/corrupted files just as the normal client will. |

OP might choose to give it another try. I would encourage him to try as well, but I want to inform you that his connection issues will have the same impact on the repair tool as it does on the online downloader. If the Repair Tool loses connection it has to start completely over again (I tested this just now), which means that even if it successfully downloads one file of thousands it still has to restart to get the rest. It times out, start it over.
At least with a torrent the protocol is designed to automate the gathering, collecting, and requesting process.
