Hi! We are planning a mass test on Singularity on Thursday, March 5th, at 17:00 UTC (= EVE time).
What exactly is being tested?
- Download on Demand
- New bracket icons
How to connect to Singularity for this test:
Test steps: Probably similar to:
- Meet in FD-MLJ, at the gate to X-BV98
- Jump to X-BV98
- Warp to POS beacon
- Shoot the control tower
- Align to Poitot gate
- Fleet 1: Jump to Poitot and setup gate camp
- Fleet 2: Jump to Poitot + fight at the gate
- Optional: NPCs?
What else should I know?
- We will be moving players to the test system - join the channel massmoveme
- 2M Skill points will be awarded on Singularity for this mass test
- Bring many different ships.
Special instructions for Download on Demand For testing the "worst case scenario" we would like to ask you to clear your resource cache to force the client to really use Download on Demand as much as possible. To do so follow these instructions and the screenshots at the end:
- First, select the settings cog in the right upper corner of the launcher (see this screenshot).
- Once in the settings window, select the GÇ£DownloadGÇ¥ tab, note the GÇ£Shared cache locationGÇ¥, and make sure that GÇ£Download all the resource filesGÇ¥ box in not selected. (see this screenshot)
- Go to the shared cache location (see this screenshot).
- You now have two choices:
* Delete the SharedCache folder. * Rename it.
- For the purpose of the mass-test, either option is fine. It is more a matter of your preferences, and how much you are willing to redownload.
We will also have extra questions for the survey at the end of the mass test:
- What is the maximum download speed of your internet connection?
- Which internet connection type are you using? (Wired / Wireless)
- What is the size of the SharedCache folder at the end of the mass-test?

Where did you find this ancient installer? But on this topic: The installer for EVE is currently completely rewritten for these changes and the new version is not available yet.

So we can't do anything until the new launcher / installer is available.. when will that be? |

Ah, this is from the old Dev Blog.
For the moment it is best to just copy the existing TQ client and do not try to install a new client.

When was the last mirror made for the server?
*edit - never mind - found it on the forums....there is no delete post button?*
My Steam account made the last mirror but it always gives me issues when going back to regular server - as in I usually have to reinstall the entire game...maybe that is part of the issues you're having on Mac clients? |

If you restart the client it will look at the cache and see if its missing some and attempt to download the rest but just hangs at 0%. Craziness!!!

CCP Habakuk wrote:Hi!
For our Mac users:
We made a change in the launcher, so that it downloads all the needed resources before being able to play. While this is unfortunate, we have had to take this step until we resolve crash issues in the client. We continue to work on a fix. Please do not try to delete your resource cache - the launcher would download everything again.
as you might get problem we will we extend "2M Skill points will be awarded on Singularity for this mass test" to 4M , just reply here.
Yes plz, no way to download and install, thx |

can you please ensure that those attempting to join and are spending an eternity while the cache rebuilds receive the mass test skill points too? as we are participating in the mass test even though the client will not get into the game proper.?

I was having the same problem, but then i saw the problems Mac users might have. Altough i am running windows, I saw that Mac users shouldn't delete the SharedCache, but i already did, figured it might have something to do with that. So, i clicked the cogwheel again, went to download>browse, and it was there agian, and i could start the game. might want to try that?

so couple of people cant get on masstest due the DoD failure
the download on demand is not yet fully operational be aware of that. so call it disorder on download . CCP hasnt stated yet if there any workarounds stucking launcher rather moving on with controversal updates. whole download on demand is just heartstab for those who have mobile internet and have transfer limit so they cant download evryting all at once. for me it looks like attempt to throw away low-end users with slower internet connections.
=============================== restarted suspended at 100% launcher to get at next run a 0% , another restart 0% and another 0% repair.exe 22mb patch then i hit launcher - 0% another restart -% repairexe another 22mb patch at end downloaded 15 ""22 mb"" patches and launcher isnt even going to go ever 0.1% it sits 0% |

Something to take note of in regards to the test.
It appears when you optimize your settings for performance, it disables the option to use resource cache.
Many people experienced a lot of performance issues during the test and probably quickly optimized their settings. I know I did along with a few people in chat discussing it.

Nobody from CCP said anything about 4M. This is a hoax.
But I'll try to add skill points for those who tried to join but failed to download.

Missed the test time by a few hours, but noticed this on the DoD. I changed the Cache path to D:\Programdata\ccp\EVE_Test and the client then created all of the following directories;
D:\programdata\ccp\EVE_\sharedCache D:\programdata\ccp\EVE_t\sharedCache D:\programdata\ccp\EVE_te\sharedCache D:\programdata\ccp\EVE_tes\sharedCache D:\programdata\ccp\EVE_test\sharedCache
Might want to look at the directory creation function. Can confirm that only the correct folder has the cache files in it.

Thanks, I did manage to get on half way through and chase you all through the gates, but didn't get an invite into a fleet. I hope that was enough, but I did see the icons, and filled in the survey and posted on the forum my reactions. I hope that was sufficient.
But oh god the icons, i need to buy younger eyes. I pray to all that's holy you take some mercy on us?

rewatching my FRAPS of the fights, my frame rate dropped down to 0.21 FPS more often that i could count...wow, just wow. And that was a rather unpopulated Mass Test compared to the last quite a few that i've participated in... |
