Originally by: Nadarius Chrome
Originally by: thatbloke I have an issue that's annoyed me for the past few patches...
I run EVE. It tells me there is a new build, asks if I want to download it, I click yes. This downloads an installer, the installer then downloads the big part of the patch and does its thing. Installer says it's finished. Leave the Cleanup downloaded Data button checked, and hit Finish.
...
Then nothing happens?
Why is the installer not automatically restarting the (newly updated) EVE client it just patched, or at least providing a tick option to be able to do so?
I find that most other games will auto-relaunch themselves after a patch is installed (or at least provide an option to run the game when the installer closes).
such an option may well belong in the thousand papercuts thread though I guess....
HAH, if we're going to bring up bad design with the patcher, you've missed the biggest issue.
Run client. Message pops up "There is a new build available. Would you like to download it?" Click yes. Client starts a download. Think "Cool. Time to go make a snack." Come back 10 minutes later to see that the patcher has downloaded, and would I like to start downloading the actual patch? FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!
haha! This! Does anyone ever download a patcher and then NOT download the patch? The patch that is required in order to play the game they are trying to play?

This discussion is about the patch bugs, err i mean features not whether it should have run the patch straight from the log in screen... thats irrelevant aslong as it works.
Would you prefer it if I assigned you your own personal GM who could scratch your own arse for you while play the game ? Maybe even put the kettle on or grab that can of beer out the fridge for you ? Bleh!

A good guess might be that because of the "have to run this as Administrator" popup, the patcher would launch eve on the admin account (using its directory for settings, not yours). Which would mean a mountain of complaints about setting being gone (they are not).
I have that piece of crap UAC disabled, so nothing to do with that...

Originally by: Joe Astor Assets window is HUGE, and can't be resized to the dimensions it was pre-patch. Not fun :(
Even bigger than it was? That's stupid. Kinda remindes me of this - doesn't take too much space this way, does it? Wonder if I'll be able to reproduce this again |

This thread is for feedback on the patch itself. We are providing feedback on an annoyance with the patch. I am not making a post/thread with ALL CAPS TITLE THAT IS SPLET INCRROETLCY WITH LOTS OF !!!!! AND 111111 in it and demanding that this be fixed yesterday or I will quit.
It is not irrelevant.

Edited by: origPumu on 15/02/2011 21:33:48 I can't find to way to drop some loot out of a can to my station, if there are only cans in my hangar. Visual feedback the choices to put tings in or between the cans in hangar. (Typical drag'n'drop behavior of most operating systems - highlight the can or a line between the cans) What should I do, what should I say? Choose Your weapon, TIME TO PLAY! |

Was the removal of some overseer's personal effects in a 10/10 plex Outgrowth drone hive intentional? If it was, why wasn't this mentioned in patchnotes?

Okay, the new 4 line square could pass for a cosmetic upg. But what's with all the triangles/arrows EVERYWHERE?? They're in char sheet, in drone window..
Is there any, ANY reason those are added?
I'm sorry, I just don't see the reasoning for all those arrows/triangles other than adding to more clutter..

CCP, please.. what the **** is this new settings icon in the GUI? I told you some months ago that if you ever want to do something about it you have to choose one (READ: ONE) way to access settings options and stick to it.
Let's look at some settings access Overview window - you have to click a tiny small icon (approx 8x8 pixels ?!?) to access the settings for this. Same goes for the settings options of the mail window. Wallet window - whoa duude, there we got a tab for the settings. The NeoCom - has no icon or visible option to access the settings at all. And the settings options for the chat channels are visible ALL THE ****ING TIME and you have to set them for EVERY FREAKING CHAT WINDOW SEPARATE and some others (like blink toggle) are only accessible by r-clicking the tab of that window. The world map control panel in the map screen is a complete mishmashmixup of settings and usability options.. 100% FUBAR.
From my last assessment we're now up 1 more icon instead of reducing the variation.. congratulations!
Again, go for something that's recognised by everybody for 'settings' out there:
Oh, and another one for the 'help' access.. the ship fitting window has got a neat little '?' on the right upper corner.. every other window that's done via rclicking the title-tab.
TRY AGAIN!

Get someone to design a new framework for the complete UI and then have scrum-teams adapt/migrate the old windows and GUIS over to the new system.. If you already are doing this as I write this, it might be a good idea to have the guy responsible for the framework to hack some dev blog together and get some feedback from us.
Hey, if you can hire a guy for (re)doing the FX then you can hire a guy to (re)do the gui framework..

Can no longer pick multiple filters for contract type
Please bring that back! The checkboxes were superior to the one-choice drop-down!
I prefer the _separate_ filter checkboxes for: * Auctions * Buy Orders * Items Exchange * Multiple Items

Quote: Reward per jump is now shown in the contract details window. this will now show you how much isk per jump the contract yields using your current autopilot settings. Reward per jump is likewise shown in the Create Contract windows and uses the creator's autopilot settings.
Asked and received, excellent job on this update CCP.

Ok, ill post in this thread seems i have been ignored in the past two.
The Station containers, it is all well being able to drag the items onto the containers without opening them, but when you do so, they become locked despite in the configuration settings i have it set to Unlock my items.
Furthermore, for station containers, can the default option EVE-WIDE be set to "Dont Lock Items" and if people want the items to be locked then they can go into the configuration settings and set it as so? - So its in the reverse order as what it is currently. --------------------------------------------

This has been fixed internally and will be deployed in a future client-patch

To CCP - thank you for switching into a mode of making more quick fixes and not waiting till the next expansion. To me this is what I would expect if someone is commiting to excellence.
My personal favorite this time: "remove all waypoints" from space view and not having to go to the map menue.
My wish for the next quick fix: Make it possible for courier contracts, that you can view the "summary window" with all the contents after you set up the contract.
Hope to see those quick fixes now on a regular basis.

+1 for this. I fall for it every time! Particularly annoying when you transfer containers full of stuff between players, as I regularly do between my chars.

Please allow people to toggle the automatic rookie ship and annoying email from pend insurance EVERY SINGLE TIME YOU DOCK in a pod.
Not only is it infuriating having to delete/trash them all but it must add to server load something hillarious.

A small "bug" with courrier contracts and the new security filters. It seems to only check if both stations are in high sec (or whatever you selected), but not if you can complete the contract by staying in those zones.
http://img38.imageshack.us/img38/2382/contractbug.jpg
It's probably not worth spending the time to fix that and it only concerns the small high sec island (+ there is the low/null sec alerts system to help), but if it ends up being quick/easy to change, then why not _ Ore Table | PI Profits |

Please sort the sorting of contracts in the new contract search beta, it worked as it should, sorting the whole results set by price rather than the results shown on each page, now it's reverted back to the old incorrect way of sorting results.
I often search for blueprints in contracts and sort them by price, ascending if I want to check out what the current going rate for a bpc is or descending if I want to find any cheap bpo's that might be up for grabs. The old search would mix up the results and show a subset with the prices sorted by page. The pre-patch search beta would sort them correctly with all the highest price contracts on the first page and so on when sorted in descending order. Today I find it's gone back a step. Not the biggest deal in the universe but does mean having to go through every page of a search to see the most expensive items. ------------------------------------------------ Quafe is people! |
