Greetings tournament peopleses,
Duality is up and open for business. ThereGÇÖs a couple things we need to go through so that yGÇÖall are set for it though.
First up, connecting to it is a bit different than usual. WeGÇÖll be keeping Duality on par with the current client on TQ, so the first step is to make sure youGÇÖre fully patched to TQ. From there, youGÇÖll need to make a shortcut to exefile.exe, which resides in the GÇ£binGÇ¥ folder of your Eve install. After making such a shortcut, right click on it and go to GÇ£PropertiesGÇ¥. From there, add GÇ£ /server:DualityGÇ¥ without the quotes to the GÇ£TargetGÇ¥. If you open it up and the launcher appears, you did the shortcut to GÇ£eve.exeGÇ¥ and youGÇÖre bad at following directions.
Mac users, I have no idea how this works for you, hopefully someone will pipe in and give you the info and call me a moron or something.
That should get you to the login screen. ItGÇÖll say the serverGÇÖs not accepting connections, but thatGÇÖs for the general non-tournament riff-raff, you my friends get to come right on in.
From then on, youGÇÖll probably want to get to your allianceGÇÖs system, which youGÇÖll have to ask your captain for. TheyGÇÖll tell you what the password is as well, which you will need to enter as your shipGÇÖs POS password.
CAPTAINS! Use the GÇ£/setpasswordGÇ¥ command in chat in order to set your systemGÇÖs password. It will also tell you what system is yours. ItGÇÖs best to do this while in the system itself, otherwise it might not work properly.
Known issues: CaptainsGÇÖ neocoms freak out and generally donGÇÖt work. Fix for that should deploy on Monday. /setpassword sometimes is ineffective when not in the passworded system. This is unlikely to be fixed.
If you run into issues, please contact myself and CCP Fozzie. Happy practicing! CCP Veritas - Senior Programmer - EVE Software |

And each system should now have a set of beacons as well. Let me know if your Battle Arena is in an unfortunate spot, I just kinda picked some numbers out of the air. Hopefully the vastness of space will keep them away from things~ CCP Veritas - Senior Programmer - EVE Software |

Okay, SPs are out. There's been an issue discovered regarding the passwords not working on some cross-constellation gates, I'll be deploying a build in the morning to address that. In the meantime, it's advisable that people set their ship's POS password prior to traveling to their alliance's system as this should mitigate the problem.

Yup, the battle arena is intentionally offset a bit, as the real ones for the tournament are around planets so they aren't perfectly centered either.
I'll drop by your system and free up an office for ya.
No tourney tools though, sorry. Good idea for next year though~ CCP Veritas - Senior Programmer - EVE Software |

Sulo Hayha wrote:Just wondering, is it possible for someone to infiltrate the secured system witout using the password by having office on station beforehand, moving your clone there and then using Pod Express services to jump in system? That does currently work, but access is limited to the station. Undocking without the password will fail.
If I can think of a clean way to prevent even the station access I'll be patching it in, but I don't see it as a show-stopper really. CCP Veritas - Senior Programmer - EVE Software |

Dobriy wrote:Just make sure you have them set their starbase password *before* deathcloning, otherwise you will have to jump clone out and try again. There is no way that I'm aware of to change your password while docked. Should you find yourself in this situation, it's easier to just log out and log back in. Since your password is incorrect you'll be offered a move next door, and after some amount of retrys, you'll actually be put there. Then you can change your password and jump on back in.

You shouldn't need to copy anything, just run the shortcut out of your regular TQ client's folder. Past that I'd need logserver details or something, feel free to continue via evemail if you want~ CCP Veritas - Senior Programmer - EVE Software |

SiSi downtime was always a big headache for practice during USTZ. "Dear players, the servers are down for 30 minutes each day for maintenance and updates. The daily downtime will begin in 1 hour at 03:45. The servers will be back up again shortly. Please make sure your characters are out of harm's way before the servers close." Downtime on Duality is still active as of June 26, 2013 Ugh it said it would run until manually shut down. I'ma have to give it a stern talking to about lying.
