i've found it handy to download the full install everytime there's a "single fix", or if i get messages about "incompatible protocol" when connecting. same thing happened yesterday after the 1.0.2, after downloading the full install there was no problems... (though now i'm getting incompatible protocol message, but it's still downtime and the patch isn't available yet, i'd assume that is why :P)

Originally by: Echo Vector Would you rather CCP be bought out by, oh, I don't know, let's say Sony Online Entertainment? Or worse? ( Does worse than SOE even exist outside of Redmond, Washington? )
Is there actually a company worse than SOE? I play planetside and the amount of screwups is comical, not to mention the stupid things they add into the game or the fact they dont seem to care about the cheating hacker F's

Fail!
So yesterday you released a patch to fix a login issue for a few. It's not like we have the same problem and should only be client side right? That should take less than three hours! And on top of that we had this problem with the previous patch that didn't even work in the first place and was withdrawn. So a hotfix was posted in the news section that solved that problem but still you release a patch to fix the problem for those who don't know how to properly remove a friggin folder.
And still, this of course has to be done using that very same stupid patching system where the SERVERS have to be patched just because the clients version number change instead of having something called a "PROTOCOL VERSION NUMBER"!
I am still waiting for 1.0.4 that will say:
This patch will adress the problem with the AUTOPATCHER and completely separate the server build from the client build. So that regular people who didn't have the problem in the first place won't be punished by the stupidity of "others" (CCP and computer MORONS)
Blowing off steam as i wait for the mandatory 3 hour downtime and i can only guess it will be another 30 - 60 minutes after that...
Cheers! ---------------

Yes, the servers are online. Yes, there is a 3 hours dt. No, the servers are not open to players. No, those are not ppl playing, they are testers. Yes, there will be a patch, hence the 1.0.3 instead of 1.0.2. No, the patch is not available for download yet. No, the servers have never been open to players before the specified time. Yes, this is sarcasm. No, you may not ask me on a date P.S. No trees were hurt during the production of this message, however, a large number of electrons were temporarily disrupted |

I had no problems with the client, although my fiance did. But we went into the program folder, deleted the ccp file, then into the User and Temp folders to get rid of anything ccp and eve. After that we reinstalled yesterday and everything worked.

Not sure, but it does get annoying.

Edited by: Elseer Radak on 20/02/2008 13:24:09 All, I found myself unable to log on after this latest patch (I ran fine until the dt for 1.0.3". Investigating I found the directory of "c:\appdata\ccp" did not exists and never did exist.
Now I run three clients on a single Vista x64 installation. I use the old shortcut method "c:\eve-install-1\eve.exe /END /LUA:OFF" for each of the three installs. In this configuration, the cache folder is located within that directory. The key is to delete all subdirectories of "c:\eve-install-1\cache\MachoNet\" (and iterate through any other directories like "c:\eve-install-2" you may launch from. Do not touch the "cache\settings" folder or you'll loose your overlay settings and don't touch the text files in "cache\browser\*.txt" files or you'll loose your bookmarks and trusted/banned sites lists.

Edited by: Ma Zhiqiang on 20/02/2008 13:29:43 There are many people complaining about the lack of customer relation CCP seem to have. I'm can't say I disagree. I think the problem is that CCP doesn't have any competition with their creation of EVE online. I guess that's why they have been able to not deal with many problems with the game, and get away with it...
As for time reimbursement.. I haven't noticed any of that when the server have had a meltdowns and crashes from time to time...

Originally by: Flag Bravo The word 'isk' is Eskimo lingo that translates to 'penguin' or 'Oh look there goes another one those ******* isk, let's gank the *****'
Except Iceland is not really related to Eskimoes?
Correct me if im wrong but Eskimoes live in Greenland, Canada and northern Russia and so on. they are not really related to the Scandinavian breed. Icelandic people are a mix of all scandinavians and possibly some links to scottish and gaelic etc etc. Vikings had a very similar language to the modern Icelandic.
But don't quote me on that... I just think that is true.
Furthermore, Iceland has a lukewarm climate due to the ocean temperature and the fact that volcanoes and hot springs cover the island. Penguins like it a bit chillier...
Just some "inaccurate" information on that topic. ---------------

Same here, I used the method again I used yesterday (copying compiled.code from the /script to the cache folder in all users) and now its telling me not accepting connections instead of the incompatible protocol message. It's nice to fix a fix, but I guess it will be an extra fix for most people.

if you compare old norse, and old english (and actually know how to read both), they're pretty similar in terms of phonetics and trough that words. all that is different is some amount of word realignment, some words, and the fact that both use a different character to reprecent "th" sound (cloth).
then again i don't really know what icelandic sounds like, i know what norse and swedish sound like though.
don't know if there's eskimoes in russia either... but there are a similar nomad groups in some parts of siberia. ..

Icelandic sounds similar to Gaelic and Norwegian. Swedish sound like the ugliest German you can imagine (Yes i am a Swede)
And yes, i meant nomads but they are strongly related.
On a side note, server is up... ---------------

That's silly. It's just two additional hours of downtime with a prorated value of well less than a million isk. Not worth the bother.

I was also getting Incompatable Protocol no matter what I did.
I use WinXP 64 bit, and the directions to remove the cache didn't help me find them. The only CCP folder I could find was the install folder.
What I did to get to where it is now (not accepting connections, 6 players connected) is to *completely uninstall* then reinstall. However, I now see (as I watched the directories go by on the uninstall) that the directions from CCP don't apply to my OS.
If you can't find the folder they're having you look for, try this string instead:
%USERPROFILE%\Local Settings\Application Data\CCP
Then delete (or just move) the EVE folder.
BUT -- remember, the servers are down right now.
UPDATE: Actually, looks like they're coming up now...
