Meritsa Avioni 4864	Posted - 2013.05.21 15:06:00 - [1] - Quote Hello, As the new launcher just came in lot of people are having problems, me including! 1.) If you tried to launch client, something failed, error messages AAAAAAAAAH 2.) http://cdn1.eveonline.com/EveOnlineLauncher/release/EVEOnlineLauncher_2_1_539169.exe download the file and execute it. 3.) Make sure you answer NO to the question about where to install the launcher update. Just so you verify that you point it to the actual place you have installed your Eve Online to. I had installed my Eve Online to custom location and the launcher fixer still pointed to C:/Program Files... 4.) After submitting the launcher "fix" in to your current Eve Online install folder, goto that folder. 5.) Launch "eve.exe" from the root folder itself (Make sure on Windows that you Right Click->Run as administrator) 6.) Launcher sorted itself out from here, validating client next and then let me to login. These steps sorted my problems completely.

Just make, double, triple sure to check that you apply the "patch" to your actual Eve Online installation folder and don't start from desktop icons etc, but straight from inside the folder that has the patch in it to make absolutely sure you launch correct one.

I keep getting a good ol fashioned "abort retry ignore" message when it goes to do it... That would indicate that files are in use that are being written over at. Open your Task Manager in Windows or use "ps -aux \| grep Eve" in Linux and Kill all processes like the Eve Launcher and Client.

After a little digging it looks like it didn't update my eve launcher shortcut on my desktop. I went into my Eve directory and grabbed the launcher shortcut from there and now it is working just fine. Exactly, you can't trust any shortcuts now. Everyone should make sure they launch the binary file itself straight from the folder and not use shortcuts. After you get the launcher to do the validation, re-create your shortcuts Avioni Corporation --áhttp://www.avioni.org/ We are currently looking for more pilots, check our site!

Anyways the launcher shows offline mode (got it to update). so i guess its working for now. just have to figure out how to launch eve from it Well you can always just restart whole machine to make sure nothing isn't stuck anywhere anymore, but most likely you just need to make sure you don't use any shortcuts etc now.

Not even if a GM says it is okay, or if it appears in the Support Knowledgebase. You don't want to deal with the hassle of even a false positive detection. The patch there is from CCP itself and it's the same package that comes from patch server itself. Just hang tight then, CCP will fix this eventually through they're own patch server. I just saw need to write this here so people don't need to petition everything.

Meritsa Avioni 4866	Posted - 2013.05.21 15:54:00 - [11] - Quote Updated the first post, there seems to be multiple problems for people. Most important is to not to use old shortcuts on desktop or wherever and start straight from bins (exe files) Avioni Corporation --áhttp://www.avioni.org/ We are currently looking for more pilots, check our site!

I attempted to install it using the instructions and it still did not function as intended. I am using the following fix to get in: *ATTENTION* -- TEMPORARY FIX Repair and play. 1) C:\CCP\EVE\repair.exe 1a) If the repairer fails - re-run multiple times until it completes. 2) C:\CCP\EVE\bin\ExeFile.exe The game should load and let you connect without issue.. DO NOT under any circumstances re-run the patcher or this will break and you will have to do it over again. -=-=-=- Note - This took me about 5 minutes for the repairer to run. May I copy paste that to the first post of mine? Avioni Corporation --áhttp://www.avioni.org/ We are currently looking for more pilots, check our site!

Meritsa Avioni 4884	Posted - 2013.05.21 20:02:00 - [17] - Quote Im not rolling my eyes that much, just a bit bummed CCP would have this kind of problems. I have really high expectations of CCP and they have always delivered the best professional touch for running MMO and been doing really great job on it. This was just a bit unlucky to get so much compatibility issues from pretty much everyone But knowing my favorite powerhouse of developers, this is gonna get fixed and innovated in so fast pace that we won't even believe it Everyone should have the right to do mistakes, none of us are perfect and CCP cares for it's players so I think compensation is coming for everyone in some manner.

YAYYYYYYY skills arnt training anymore //////wrists I personally have no experience of that error, I only had python errors and fixed it by manually putting everything place didn't even need to run repairer, but I think your best choice is to keep running repair.exe at least 5 times first and if all else fails try reinstalling the whole client again. Go check manually that all files are removed then doing uninstall so you get fresh install. Avioni Corporation --áhttp://www.avioni.org/ We are currently looking for more pilots, check our site!

Meritsa Frozen Dawn Academy Arctic Light 7107	Posted - 2013.09.22 10:41:00 - [22] - Quote I have been having problems with launcher just crashing straight from the start lately... I am running WIN8 now and this is getting on my nerves. Most likely my problems are because my HDD that has Eve files has been a bit funky, but still... SO if I get some problems by the launcher not starting at all the game itself or anything else, I use repair and it does nothing. It takes like 3 seconds and nothing happens... When that happens I just remove launcher folder from the eve folder and run repair, it has been helping so far :P
