Welcome to the new EVE-O Preview thread. As of StinkRay's absence, I'll be taking over bugfixes and the like. The original thread can be found here.
As of version 1.15 I have moved the project to Github: https://github.com/MakariAeron/eve-o-preview
The old bitbucket repositories can be found here, here, and here.

Yep! Assuming life stays as low key as it is right now, I'll do my best to have numbers 1 & 3 (minimize to system tray & an installer version) on my TODO list done soonTM. Projected release is this weekend, but as always that can change.

Version 1.16 released! This is another minor update. Next I'll be tackling that pesky bug where the settings window loses focus. This fix could take a while so unless someone finds a bug, 1.16 will stay the stable release for a while.
I did not include an installer version as I'm not too keen on the options available in VS2013. I'll have to look into it more before deciding.
Direct Download
What's New -- Version 1.16 Minimize to system tray option (the system tray is where the clock is located) Replaced stock image in the aboutbox Some image resource rearrangement and minor code adjustment

If you think you did something usefull, you can send the origin repository a "pull request" OP than gets a notification and can pull directly from your repo into his.

Awesome, works like a charm.
Would you consider adding hotkey support? I would like to have my eve real estate as full screen as possible and hiding the overlay while using shortcuts (CTRL + ALT + 1 to 0 for example) would allow you to switch without having to surrender your precious pixel space.
As right now it is either using the 'always on top' or being relegated to using it in the same way the Windows 8 Taskbar handles it by having to focus to the window and choosing an active account.

That's a good idea. I'll put it on the todo list. I use "always on top" and have it on my second monitor with my non-EVE programs (browser, Skype, TS3, etc)

Hey,
Forked the GitHub project and tried to open in VS. However it's unable to open "..\EOPSetup\EOPSetup.vdproj"
It seems you have the installer application added to the project but not in the same Git repo. :(

Been using this for the past few months and this has removed the need for me to have a second (or third) monitor. I wish I had feedback but this works pretty flawlessly.
If I had a recommendation, would be to put in some default sizes in a drop down menu (good size box for a 1920 screen, one for a 2100 size, another for a 4 k screen. It's not really needed (can just convert it via math myself, considering I run a little oddball size of 2560 by 1600). That's a bit of a needless request as there are better things to code in.
Fantastic program though. Works well and wish it existed a long time ago.
Yaay!!!!

Dammit. I'll have to figure out how to add it to the main project when I get home tonight. I'll probably just have to put them both in the same folder in my github repository clone. It's a VS2013 Installer Extension

I've been considering that, I didn't know how much people wanted it. TBH, I'd be making a 4:3, 16:9, 16:10, and whatever 4k is for the ratio. But if you accidentally change your window size it's no longer accurate.

I guess I was more pointing out that it was missing and wondering if you were going to add it or we should remove it from the solution. :)

I'm trying to gather us all on the same repo, and since I may slip out of this I'd prefer the old HG one :)

Ahh ok. i'll probably remove it for now because I had no real luck with it. Seeing as StinkRay has resurfaced, I'm passing the reigns back to him. Though I need to learn how HG works.

For those of you watching this thread, StinkRay opened a GIT repository on Bit bucket.
To the person who sent a pull requset on Github (Takagamu?) I'm looking over your code now(-ish, I'm at work).

1. Figure out why (and fix) the settings window loses focus so often. Most likely one or both of the timers calling a function.
-- fixed.
Will try and see if we can get a few more kinks fixed before releasing.

Zekora Rally wrote:I've been using this for quite some time. I run 3 accts on one monitor and this allows me to monitor all the screens at once. The problem I have is that the previews overlap when I switch through all three. I always have to seperate them again or limit myself to switching between only two clients.
If the moving around of previews is done, taking into account the fact the layout is unique per actual Eve client, you should be able to arrange them so this doesn't happen.
However, I do see how the manual arrangement/re-sizing is a bit annoying. Auto arrangement / re-sizing, of some sort, is something I'd like us to explore at some point.

Agreed. I'll look into a bit. However with the holidays upon us all I probably won't have time to do much coding for any of my projects.

when running two accounts, I click the preview to switch - it completes the switch however I loose the preview of the client I switched from. I can't then ever get back previews without removing the xml config files.
Any ideas? |

Rotineque Severasse: first off, posting chat logs is against the forums rules. Don't want you to get in trouble. I'm sorry I missed you for the 2nd part of the convo. It's pretty hectic right before xmas. I probably won't get around to looking at it until the new year (StrinkRay is away for the holidays as well). Just in case the chat log gets removed I'll repaste your image file here: http://imgur.com/msvWmtq,QbqUU16
I will look into it, but probably not for a while. My guess is probably Win10 did something slightly different with something. But I don't have a copy installed anywhere to check.
PS: FoxFour, you think you could get them to remove the "warning" for leaving the forums for the Microsoft official site? Seems kinda silly.

Since updating to v1.18 the character names on the overlays disappear when switching clients, playing around with the options changed nothing. They reappear when hovering over an overlay for long enough to trigger the zoom or by disabling and enabling "show overlay" manually. Any suggestions?

it'll be a while until i am in front of a windows box with eve on it, but i have a notion the disappearing char names has to do with disabling the constant bringing the previews to front. Will have to redo that bit properly. Also there were complaints about the darker colors for the tool window, so will revert that change eventually as well.
Thanks for you feedback! And merry xmas new years etc.

Track client location means that, when checked, the program will remember the location of your EVE client positions and rearrange them accordingly when the program dectects the clients. For example, I have a few of my clients on my second monitor. EVE O Preview has that information stored so a few clients get automatically moved to the 2nd monitor.
The setting itself is more useful when you have multiple monitors or massive HD monitors.
I have a bit of time today before I gallivant off to more shenanigans, I will upload a bugfix version soonTM with the color revert.

Version 1.18.2 has been released. It fixes the overlay text disppearing once the preview has been focused. The Win10 bug is still open as I do not possess a copy of Windows 10. After the holidays and I get myself an apartment I'll look into getting a copy of Win10 running on my old desktop and see if I can pin down the error there. My advice for the time being is to stick to fully released Operating Systems in case there is some "unintended feature" in the current Win10 beta code.

I really like the track client location option!
However, if you don't have monitors of the exact same size, it won't work, because it will successfully move the client, without altering the resolution. The window is then squeezed to fit inside the smaller screen, which is of course ugly (and hard to fix, because the actual cursor position won't match the mouse on screen).
So.. Genious idea, but at the moment it is useless to me :)
Edit: Also, still have this issue where switching too quickly, or switching to an EVE client by clicking the preview, while having a non-eve client focused... Successfully switches, but then one or more of the preview cease to be displayed, with only the preview name remaining without an actual preview below it.

Window movement: that is Windows, not us. The way around that problem is to use either multiple client installs or symlinks so you can have multiple client sizes. Though I see your point. I'll see if we can save client sizes as well.
Switching too quickly: when did this start? What version are you using? I recently made the overlay text always on top. I tested it for about an hour and didn't have any problems. Also, what OS are you using?

Hello, apologies for the likely silly question, but do I need to be running the Eve clients in windowed mode for this to work? Works fine if in windowed mode, but in full screen the preview windows don't show up.
Thanks |

You can extract the file to anywhere you wish. The location of the EXE file does not matter. Though, preferably a file where the program can write to the layout XMLs. Personally, I have mine in my CCP folder D:\Games\CCP. If you're running the program from inside your Programs Folder or Programs Folder (x86) be sure to run it as admin as Win7 and Win8/8.1 don't always like programs writing to Program Files.

What's New -- Version 1.18.3Fixed the overlay text persisting after a client was closed (....again)
Unless some unforeseen bug (re)appears, this will be the last update from me for a bit. Since I accepted a full-time position I must go look at apartments (been at my parents far too long for everyone's liking) and sadly that must take precedence. Hopefully by the end of the month I'll have time to dive back into the code for improvements and new features along side StinkRay.

Interesting thing happened, the previews work fine when completely logged in, but trying to use them while in the character select screen makes all the screens overlap. Which for me using it the first time was the place I was trying to get everything set up before actually heading into the game.
Hope that will help anyone that might run into that problem.

Yea, unfortunately the application reads the title of the window to know which to put where. Since at the character selection screen they are all called EVE, they get the same setting. You will need to be logged in before setting it up. Or, if really adventures, you can manually edit the layout file.

FoxFour is correct. I'm not sure there's a "better" way to do this and keep the simplicity of the program. But if anyone has ideas, I'm all ears.

Hi Makari Aeron,
Unfortunately, for some unknown reason (at least for me), even after update to net 4.52 I am still getting the same error as ultimatefox02. I am still using version 1.3 without problem, but I would like to upgrade to 1.8.
And a big thank you for your time and efforts.

here are some solutions that I found while googling for "CLR20r3"
--Try running as Administrator. --Do you happen to have Win7 Media Center installed? Try repairing or uninstalling/reinstalling it. --Try repairing your .NET framework. --Remove .NET 2.0 and have windows reinstall it

I just stumbled onto this program looking for anything I haven't tried to help multiboxing. This program is very nice for handling multiple accounts.
I do ask, if not too much of a problem, to add the capability of adding not just EVE clients to the window list but Browsers, EFT, EVEMon among others.
And the previous request for hotkey assignment to the windows would be very nice, I second the motion....
You all keep up the great work. It is appreciated very much. |

I run it on Win10 at home. I have yet to update my home install to the newest version, but I don't think anything has changed that would cause it to not work.

Maybe I understand the program wrong, but thought it used AERO to display the other screens. Wasn't sure if windows 10 would include it (think they switched to metro or something).
I could be completely and totally wrong though. It did warrant the question as Microsoft tends to break everything every new OS release, and this would be considered a non-microsoft app.

Well, it runs using C# and Window's DLLs. In theory it should work, I simply haven't had the time to install Win10 on my old desktop. In a few weeks when I move into my new apartment I'll install the OS and verify if this program works with the Win10 beta. Until then, I'd need confirmation via screenshots to mark it as "compatible".

Is your EVE client in Windowed or Fullscreen? Ths program does not function correctly if the client is in fullscreen. Is Windows AERO enabled? The bottom of the EVE-O Preview settings window should look like this if it is enabled: http://i.imgur.com/Gs2PusX.png
EDIT: Ok, so from what I can gather so far
1. Start up EVE and the Preview, screen is white 2. using WIndows 7

It looks like the resolution is set to 0/0. That or you have a multi desktop program running in the background (only thing I can think of that would mess with aero.
Might be widgets also (start disabling programs and rerunning it).
Oh it might be one other issue. From the taskbar, right kick one of the eve boxes, click "maximize". If that doesn't work, go to the task menu (Ctrl alt delete), find each eve instance, right click, bring to front.
Ran into a issue where the eve game looked extremely squished in the window. That might fix it.

Awesome program! very customisable! and a great help in dealing with multiple clients!
One possible feature request though, would be great if there was some auto stacking feature for client previews horizontally or vertically. either that or some kind of nudging feature so i dont spend 20+ frustrating minutes removing the 1 pixel gap between my borderless previews!

I've been thinking about that for a while. Another way might be to include a togglable "move" checkbox for the borderless so that you can reposition them without having to switch to windowed and become frustrated with having to adjust blindly.

Awesome. I'll mark it as possibly resolved. Hopefully in 2 weeks or so I'll get to run some of my own tests on Win10 to make sure everything is 100%.

If I switch using EVE-O it remembers the size of the window, however if I minimize the window and bring it up using eve-o its not remembering the window size. |

Have you logged into the accounts first? Because of how the program works, it takes the window title to manipulate the eve clients. As such, if you're not logged in, all the windows have the same window title.

hey! i know ive posted in here about how awesome eve-o previewer is (basically because it is awesome!) was wondering if you could look through the code of keeping the preview windows on top of other windows vs not, as ive been having issues with the windows not behaving themselves in these instances.
i had the option checked until recently changing it, now i have the option unchecked but sometimes one of the preview windows keeps itself on top until i click the preview window to select the active client and then bring the non eve client window back up.
anyway thank you for a great product! |

I see that windows like a really functional way to keep viewing what it happening while you enjoy the internet of things.
of course would be good and extra option in the setting for doze that don't like this.

Click forwarding on the window so we can chat/activate mods without having to open the game window.
Obv don't broadcast the keys to all clients tho as that would be an exploit, Just the preview window you are clicking on. |

I'd honestly avoid all types of hotkeys, mouse overs, windowed key passthroughs, etc. I understand the need to make the program bigger and better, but ultimately it should stay and remain as a preview window, not a method of assisting ships to do other jobs by using key passthroughs and avoiding the need to switch windows.
Sometimes simple is the right option.

I'm not really a fan of the key passthroughs myself. I do kinda like hotkey for window switching if you don't want the preview function (or if you want both).

So I'm trying to do a weird use case scenario. I have one primary client on multiple screens, then 5 other clients running windowed. I want to do two things.
1) I want to use save location but this causes issues with the primary client, so I need to rename the EXE for the multibox clients. 1) I only want the teamspeak overlay to run on the primary client, so I have to rename the EXE.
I've renamed the exe file to exefilemulti.exe. This works fine for fixing the overlay from appearing on multiple clients and wasting resources. However, I've downloaded the source for this program and can't seem to figure out where in the code it's referencing looking for exefile.exe, as I simply need to change that to looking for exefilemulti.exe and then I just need to update that file every time the game gets patched to achieve what I want. Where is this located?

Starting with todays patch, whenever I have previewer running and launch a client, it gets downsized so hard you can't actually open it anymore. [url]http://puu.sh/gv0Po/ae25502e15.jpg[/url] Right side is account launched before launching eve previewer, left side is account launched afterwards, it's not possible to view the downsized client in any other way. I've had this problem in the past a few times, but it only happened after selecting a character on the login screen and you could fix it by setting the client to full screen, logging the character in and then setting it to windowed again. This time it happens immediately, but only if eve previewer is running at the same time. I'd be glad for any suggestions, as it is a tiny bit annoying when needing to switch characters quickly.
Edit: just as I posted this it magically fixed itself.

Doesn't modify the ingame client, nor does it change how the game appears or is played.
Its pretty much a overlay window that the OS can provide (monitor emulation). There is no direct changes or inputs that program can provide ingame.
Its a weird dance.

Hey I have another input that I would love to see implemented into the program.
Saving screen and loadout positions of the overviews and screen sizes so if I want to use lets say a 1 big and 4 preview side setup, then later want to use a 1 big, 4 previews on bottom. it could easily be swapped from one setup to other.
And for sake of editing just make the XML files save in a subdirectory of the main program then you just have to point the program to a directory...
I hope I explained it well enough for all to understand...
Right now to accomplish this buy having 2 installs in differnent directories.....
P.S. I have multiple monitors and use my laptop and desktop at times... |

You are looking at the technology and not how it is used. With ISBoxer, elements of multiple clients can be mashed together to make a "custom client". That is what is objectionable. As far as I know, you can't do that with EVE-O Preview. Or has it changed since I last looked at it?

ISboxer uses the same software that is used here, and it was ruled in violation of 6A2 so by extension this program is in violation of the EULA as well. However, we're seeing the exact same thing occur here that happened with T20;namely, CCP priviledge in protecting someone or something that is violating the EULA. I wonder if ISBoxer was banned as a means of eliminating competition, because Team Security was grasping at straws when they said VideoFX modified the client. Pro Tip: it doesn't. It uses Aero and DWM, neither of which CCP owns or holds a controlling interest in. |

Except ISboxer wasn't banned. Input broadcasting and multiplexing was. You can use ISboxer just as you use this program.
You just can't use the broadcasting function or the key duplication function of ISboxer. Eve previewed has none (hell there isn't even a hotkey function for view switching in it).

Guys. FoxFour talked with the security folks. According to him everything is allowed that this program does. While I appreciate the discussion and activity in this thread (which encourages me to find more time to work on this program), it's over something the devs have said isn't an issue.

I'd believe that if we didn't just have a 5-boxer who was not using any sort of broadcasting get banned. Additionally, there is no part of the EULA that talks about commands being sent to certain clients. There was a kerfluffle over the usage of a KVM switch some time ago which was ruled legal. ISBoxer is nothing more than a software-based KVM switch. |

I am having a problem getting a set-up going similar to the "Four clients in a sidebar" example. The problem is, the previews only show up when the clients are minimised. As soon as I click one to make that client active, the preview disappears. The only way I can get the previews to show on screen is to minimise each client. I have the Previews always on top checked, and do NOT have hide preview of active eve client checked.
Also, I am running windows 8.1.
Any help would be appreciated, I would love to use this to manage my clients! This is a great project! |

In common sense any app that auto send clicks to different clients aren't allow. Both app you have to give click and instruction to control your ship(s). If you read up you will see CCP was in this post contributing in a way showing that is not illegal app.

As soon as I click one to make that client active, the preview disappears. The only way I can get the previews to show on screen is to minimise each client. I have the Previews always on top checked, and do NOT have hide preview of active eve client checked.
Also, I am running windows 8.1.
Any help would be appreciated, I would love to use this to manage my clients! This is a great project!
*EDIT* I figured it out. It was teamviewer. I forgot I had it running in the background. Once I closed teamviewer, all is well. Thanks for the great program!
Interesting. Thanks for coming back and letting us know you figured it out. This is good to know.

From what i understand it he was using isboxer to create multiple snapshot sections of the client that he could arrange in whatever form he wanted to in order to make using 5 clients extremely efficient in the screen space he has.
He can use those windows to click on small parts of each client. this is considered modification of the client because you're breaking up the client window into segments that you can rearrange in whatever way you want.
Eve-O Previewer does not allow you to click through the new windows you create in order to control the client, it merely gives you a truncated view of the client and the ability to click it to make that client the active client on your screen.
its a very very distinct difference, and if you cannot get your head around it then i don't know what else i can say to make it more clear to you. |

1) If making VideoFX windows was indeed banned, CCP would be attempting to police the usage of your operating system and it's features as VideoFX utilizes Windows Aero to function. 2) There is no part of the speech that targets VideoFX. 3) 6A2 is very specific in it's wording. Any modification. 4) You can already move stuff around on your UI / HUD, and you can resize your .exe window any way you want. 5) CCP cannot selectively enforce their EULA for program X over program Y without harking back to the days of T20. Nobody wants that. |

OK So here's the deal. EVE O Preview does NOT send any commends of any kind to the EVE client. It only uses Windows commands to make the EVE window the active window. It can resize the client window and re-position it which CCP said was perfectly fine.

You're presenting the exact same arguments defending EVE-O Preview that I used or am using to defend ISBoxer. Let that sink in. |

Here are a couple easy to use keyboard shortcuts I use for switching between clients.
Windows logo key +T - Cycle through programs on the taskbar + enter or spacebar to select. (Not my ideal way)
Alt+Esc - Cycle through items in the order in which they were opened ( I use this when eve clients are the only windows I have open means I can cycle through the clients quickly)
Windows logo key + number key - Start the program pinned to the taskbar in the position indicated by the number. If the program is already running, switch to that program. ( window key+1 opens/switches to first pinned icon on my taskbar. if you pin your eve clients to the taskbar in specific # positions they will always be same numbers. I use when I have multiple windows open besides eve or I need to switch immediately to a specific client without cycling through windows)

This is honestly getting ridiculous. If you use isboxer to do the same things as this program, you are all good. If you use isboxer to click a button and activate modules on multiple clients, you are banned. It is very, very, very simple. In fact there is a sticky in general discussion that CLEARLY states what is ok, and what is not. The fact that people are still "confused" by this is mind boggling.
READ THE STICKY!!!
CCP Falcon wrote: Input Broadcasting & Input Multiplexing
Input Broadcasting and Input Multiplexing refer to the multiplication of inputs, actions and events to multiple instances of the game.
Input Broadcasting and Input Multiplexing of actions with consequences in the EVE universe, are prohibited and will be policed in the same manner as Input Automation.
This includes, but isnGÇÖt limited to:
GÇóActivation and control of ships and modules GÇóNavigation and movement within the EVE universe GÇóMovement of assets and items within the EVE universe GÇóInteraction with other characters
[/i]
TLDR: This program is 100% LEGAL. Period. End of discussion. ISBOXER is LEGAL if you do not use Input broadcasting/multiplexing. (i.e. no 1 click or button to affect more than 1 client at the same time) |

put in a ticket asking whether Eve-0 is legal and you'll get a confusing answer that says nothing is legal
I read the sticky post, and i understand it, it however does not state that the spirit of the law was to remove certain play, which included a bunch of features not showing up on the list you mentioned
And the reason this keeps getting asked, even though it is "clear" to any sane person reading it, is because CCP has to cover their ass when it comes to legal matters such as the EULA, probably why they're still handing out copy paste tickets so we'll see
E: also there is a margin of error when it comes to bans People are scared of running Eve with ISBoxer because if people mass petition them they're worried they will get banned |

From what I can tell from what's officially being said, FoxFour was out of line when he stated that this software was legal to use (as they have stated that the never sanction the use of software). I'm still trying to get clarification, but I wouldn't hold my breath for an answer. Even though this software has a dev on it's credits and a clear statement claiming it's legal to use, they'll still probably slap a ban on you if you are deemed "too efficient" whatever that is.

I don't see why not. The hotkeys would be talking to the EVE-O Preview program and not EVE itself.

And the previous request for hotkey assignment to the windows would be very nice, I second the motion....
You all keep up the great work. It is appreciated very much.
Hi,
this is a great tool and i would also like to know if adding the ability to choose other running applications is a possible future feature? I know this is a little bit out of scope but could help a lot managing many windows with videos, chat and other changing content, while using only 1 or 2 monitors. This could especially benefit streamers...just saying

I can do that soonish I hope. Typing is still a bit of a pain so I have been using all that energy at work. That shouldn't be too big of a feature to implement. Though I will have to check to see if another checkbox is checked (don't show preview if active).

This program breaks Logitech Gaming Software's auto profile switcher (It's for customising utility keys on our mice and keyboards). I can't give any specifics since I don't know how the detection is done, but it causes the Logitech driver to not be able to detect the active window a second after switching to it. I'm guessing it has to do with the way preview windows are created and drawn. |

Did it stop working after you got it? or was it working when you got Win10 and all of a sudden went poof? |

Latest build from the Downloads folder works fine on my Win 10 installation (except for an exception when one of two running EVE clients is closed).
Guess I'll try to debug and fix it tomorrow.
UPDATE: The error is raised NOT always, and is not critical. |

I'd also like to see this...some how. I was thinking having something like ISBOXER where you can select an area and have it blown up or whatever. The utility i'd get out of this would be selecting a side of my screen that has my overview, scanner and HUD on it so i can keep an eye on my alt running FW missions without having to look at their entire screen stuffed into a small box.
I play one full wide screen with a part dragged over into my 2ndary square screen, wide enough for 2 tall chatboxes stacked together. the extra wideness of it messes up the aspect ratio of the viewer windows.
Still should be useful enough for what im planning on doing, however. Thanks for keeping this awesome tool alive! |

The blown up partial window could be something I work into the program. Though note that I will not add the ability to pass commands to the client other than making the window your active window. The whole passing commands to EVE in the miniature box just gets too close to the gray area of the TOS/EULA for my liking. At the moment I'm rewriting it from the ground up. The current version (1.18.3) has some finicky things with the base code, mainly how it creates and destroys the previews constantly. This causes the problem where you click where the preview is and instead nothing happens as you clicked your desktop instead as your click command was "missed" by the preview window as it refreshed.
It's going to be a while, I'm refactoring how saving and loading works along with better settings options. For example, I plan to have "accounts" where you can assign clients (characters, really) to have the same settings as another for location. Thus if you have 2 characters on the same account, you can always have them mimic each other. In addition, I plan to add it where the clients can mimic the "default" settings you created for everything but location. It's going to be a loooong process, but I believe it will be worth it in the end.

That is "intentional" because each character has a different window title. However, I am in the works of adding in something to the rewrite called the "Account System" which lets you mimic the same settings as another preview. I still need to work in location and size mirroring for both client and preview. Granted, I'm still just working on the settings and I haven't even touched rewriting the preview functions.

Is the preview window supposed to show that client in real time or is there known lag? I just set this up and was keeping an eye on the preview for one character.

"Show preview frames" is the name of the option if I remember correctly. On my phone right now so don't have it open to check.

Correct, FoxFour. You can toggle on/off the window border by checking/unchecking the "show preview frames". I would suggest enabling "Show overlay" if you toggle the window borders off.

thank you this was correct - seems i was just confused by the naming "preview frames".
together with the new launcher this tool is really awesome ! :)
Here some general feedback i posted to reddit on a recent ixboxer / new launcher discussion: "yeah im happy that eve-o preview is always improving, and in fact the first thing i did was testing it with the new launcher and see the current state.
that said, isboxer still is more "premium" in its window management features, as in you can quite easy say "okay split all inactive clients evenly onto my 2nd screen" without having to fiddle with manual resizing, and that you can on top of that display parts of that client (like a big watchlist / cap / modules) next to them, but im confident that eve-o preview will get there sooner or later too.
what im unsure about is that ressource management on top of that, since basicly isboxer builds "vms" for each client and allocates dedicated ressources to them, what is quite neat if you either have a not so great computer, or multibox a lot of clients - since without this one or two eve-clients got the habit to just "ninja" a lot of RAM while others are left with nothing which can lead to socket closes or huge lag spikes(freezes) in worst case. So it would be neat if the new launcher somehow would allow to limit the ressource allocation to each client :)" |

Even then I may not since the launcher can only set settings at launch.

I have never seen such a bug. It may be a win10 thing, I use WIn8.1. I am planning on getting a new PC soon, my current computer is dying fast and I can hardly play EVE with multiple clients without a BSOD. At that point I can see if I can find easy fixes for the bugs such as that. But again, I am in the process of doing a lengthy rewrite.
Precisely. I don't know what CCP is going to include on their launcher nor do I know how compact it will be. I am planning to continue writing the rewrite when I have spare time. For the most part, it's going to be the same as the old one but it will have easier to use settings and the ability to "clone" the settings of another client. Also, I've rewritten the save/load settings to scrap XML all together. I personally hate saving settings to XML (or JSON for that matter) and for ease of programming and multiple read/writes, I have switched to SQLite. Sadly, I can't give an ETA. It will simple be done when it's done.

I can verify that theirs an issue with windows 10 - I also was getting memory leaks first into cpu then gpu which crashed my computer badly. Since found an app that let me install an older verson of aero and it seems to of ended the issue. |

EDIT: please note that I've paused development due to work om-nomming my time AND needing a new computer which I'm getting next week. I should start again in 1-2 weeks. Minor setbacks, I know. But when EVE loves to BSOD on me when I close it, it deters me from playing the game.

oh this was in no means meant as negative critics, I really like where the project is going and together with the new launcher youre actually pretty close to replacing isboxer completely - thats very impressive! :)
The biggest QoL feature youre basicly "missing" for me now would be the "split all preview-windows evenly on Screen X"
but i was pretty quickly able to setup eve-o preview so that it works pretty well for what im doing most the time :)
Youre on a good track, thank you for doing this awesome work <3 |

also .. any way to force the "force hide" on some of the previews from start .. or turn it around and show only marked ones so no previews when u launch the clients after picking the toon the previews start showing up .. |

today i had my clients open closing one i got an .NET error or something..
some reason it kept losing focus fast so took me 20 times of selecting a bit from it and hitting ctrl+c before i got it into my clipboard

yes, my clients are windowed mode which i usually play on full screen (window maximized). i use this option to be able to use the internet browser or being alt tabbed on something else. here is a printscreen of my setup.
please note i get the same behavior at my home computer and my office computer. they both have different video cards (one ATI and one AMD) which i discard it being a video driver issue.
Here is the in game graphic configuration : http://i.imgur.com/t1JSGUj.png
Here is my preview windows setup : http://i.imgur.com/gi240dK.png
EVE-O Config: http://i.imgur.com/fsaSwFn.png
And last one, 1 active window and 2 previews : http://i.imgur.com/z5fREJM.png
I really love the program, but having no animation on the preview windows is a downer for me :(. Anyone else having the same issue?
Edit: on the graphic configuration in game, ive tried to use the lowest, mid and highest config and i get the same results. |

Mermaids StarFox, when u start it all up do you launch eve-o before or after the clients ? Zekora Rally as a answer to you too once i have all clients running and eve-o thumbnails messed up i restart it and it seems to run as it should, untill something upsets it and one or two thubnails start acting up. then again restart eve.o and it works ok.

Jaantrag, i just closed everything (even the launcher).....Opened EVE-O, then i opened the EVE launcher, proceeded to open up my 3 clients and i still gets my non-animated preview windows. |

tryed to mimic your setup .. maxed settings, 3 thubnails about the same size as yours .. but it has the animations as they should only difrence is the hardware and im running w10 myself. so could be something with w8 .. home and office boht running w8 ? is only the thumbnails with eve-o not animated .. when u look the live preview thumbnail for some other program .. video or something does it have the animation ? |

yeah, its only the EVE-O preview that is not animated. if i go to my taskbar preview and mouse over my clients, i get the animation there and any other progam. Both my computers have Windows 8.1. i will try and install Windows 10 (which i hate) in a different hard drive and try it out. |

so, i locked down the problem. here are my findings.
I installed Windows 10 to test it out on a different platform since i have the same operating system on both my computer (home and office). Once i got everything up and running on W10, i got the latest EVE-O version and started testing previews, etc. To my surprise i was able to configure my 3 clients and now im getting animation on my previews (HURRAY).
here is a screen:
http://i.imgur.com/5a1NYfs.png
The troubleshooting: After i saw how it works in W10 I noticed a wrong behavior on my W8.1 installation, ill try to explain as detailed as possible:
- On windows 10, the way i get animation on my previews is if my other windows are maximized on the background on the main monitor which is the correct behavior. On the EVE-O window, when i have my 3 clientes maximized i get the previews showing up with my character name on it. http://i.imgur.com/xy8b40T.png
- On Windows 8.1, if i do the Same, have my 3 clients running and maximized on the background, the EVE-O doesnt detect my clients running unless i minimize them to the taskbar and thats where i had the problem in which i though, for the preview to work correcty, that my clients had to be minimized in order to show animation. Heres is a Pic with my clients Maximized on Windows 8.1 http://i.imgur.com/KonpP7N.png (it doesnt show anything). Here is another pic with all my 3 clients minimized http://i.imgur.com/Fp3TcNb.png . Please notice how ther last one i minimized has 3 dots as a name (...). I tried with other versions and its the same behavior.
I wanted to share this info with you guys just to give you an idea of my troubleshooting. On my side, ill just fix it by Upgrading my OS to windows 10 since i love the program.
Let me know if you got any further questions.

That is odd. Very odd indeed. Normally, the animations don't work unless the clients are non-minimized. I'm going to take a look into that. However, i do notice in Windows 10 you don't have a little double arrow on the top of your EVE and/or EVE-O Preview windows. That's from a stardock program (though i can't recall the name). perhaps try windows 8.1 without it installed? That does affect Windows Aero IIRC.

hahahahahahahahaha......jesuschrist. This is funny.....Makari Aeron you are a genious....So, that double arrowed is from TeamViewer QuickConnect. Its an addin from Teamviewer to share the window you are using for remote support. I have TeamViewer for work purpose on both my computer http://i.imgur.com/CWqEg44.png . So, i went and disabled the Pugin and Voila, its working like it does on W10.
On W10 it didnt behave like that because i went straight to EVE installation with the fresh OS.
good stuff hehehe....thanks for pointing it out, to be honest i wouldnt have noticed it. |

Oh duh. Teamviewer. Yeah, for some reason Teamviewer messes with Windows Aero. For some reason I was thinking Stardock. Either way, I wish there was a way to avoid the Teamviewer problem. It's something I'll look into as I'm rewriting.
I'm just glad we could find a solution.

so when do you plan to make this nice software FINALLY of any use? .. I mean the KEY feature .. easy access to any client window is missing since the first version and still promised for the "next version" when ever it will come out???--
Honestly that would have been the first thing for me to implement if I were the developer.
What use has a client management tool, if I have to go the same circumstances like in regular Windows to access each client.
Please implement it as soon as possible

Wao man, if you have that much of a problem whit the app then dont use it. I use it and its really good for far.
Also you could implement that in the project since you see that needed.

Well, for the last few months the price of oil has slipped drastically which increases my work load as I have more jobs to do around the office. So for the time being my role in development in on hold. I love EVE and working on the program but it doesn't pay my bills. I can count on one hand the number of times i've logged into EVE in the last 3 months, and that's not for lack of want. You're more than welcome to crack open the source code yourself, it is open source for a reason. In addition, I'm not quite sure what you mean "easy access to every client window", could you elaborate, please? While I do wish I had more time to play EVE and write a new version of EVE O Preview, I simply don't. Thank you for your understanding.

This is a very useful program to me, thanks to all who contributed to it.
I am however having a very very strange issue for the past few days.
One of my characters seems to be incompatible with the program.
I usually run 4 accounts, and i still can. unless I log in character A. If character A logs in the display of the preview pane crashes oddly and then the client itself hangs. Only the prievew pane and client of character A are affected, other previews and clients work normally while this is occurring If I am not running eve-o preview the client works 100% correctly.
One thought I've had is that perhaps some data that eve-o stores relating to client positioning is fubarred for this character and causing this. Where does eve-o preview store this and can i wipe it manually and test this?
Another option is that this is a very strange aero bug, although the program worked fine previous to 2 days ago.
Al of this is occurring with the latest build of your program on windows 10. |

I've had that problem too, always Windows 10. What I recommend doing is deleting your XML settings files and only starting EVE O Preview AFTER you've logged in all your characters. I've been trying to pin down what is different, but it's something M$ changed since the November update (aka Win10 SP1), but I have exceptionally limited time to do any development (see post above yours).

Its usually where the EVE-O exe file is located. i Wondered this myself, i usually ran the program from my desktop and it scatered the config files all over it. What i did was to create a folder and put the exe file in it. inmediately after you launch it it will create the files to save your local configs.
hope this helps. |

but to be 101% sure if any CCP happends to come by could re-confirm the status ..
to dig into the overlays rule ..
Quote: However, if any third party application or other software is used to gain any unfair advantage, or for purposes beyond its intended use, or if the application or other software violates other parts of the EULA, we may fully enforce our rights to prohibit such use, including player bans.
We do consider overlays using elements of a second or multiple other EVE clients to be against the rules. It changes the way the game is played and grants the player unfair advantages over other players. For example, having overviews from other EVE clients as overlays on one EVE client would allow a player to get real time intel from all those other game instances without having to switch to the other windows. Similarly, overlays using elements from a second or multiple other EVE clients to allow the player to activate modules etc. on those other game instances without switching to the other client windows are clearly in violation of our rules.
i read fom it u cant use a overlay to gain an advantage from multiple clients .. however eve-o more like uses thumbnails of the full clients so u can see and switch between em .. hek the new launcher has a option to switch between active clients .. and thumbnails .. try useing win+tab keys .. similar things ull see there .. if eve-o is illegal the win+tab key should be banned too :))

Nat Silverguard wrote:here you are again spouting nonsense. the uproar is all about the devblog being vague/unclear. so unless CCP clears things up, this is just a silly assumption. But it's not really, is it. One thing they are clear about is that the ability to see inactive client windows is disallowed as show by them saying: "For example, having overviews from other EVE clients as overlays on one EVE client would allow a player to get real time intel from all those other game instances without having to switch to the other windows."
EVE-O preview specifically allows you to see inactive windows, that's what it does that makes it great. When they get to the final part they then state: "Please be aware of the fact that we do a lot of data analysis which grants us insight into behavior patterns and allows us to detect anomalies. In a lot of cases we do not need to know what you do on the client side because looking at the behavior in our very detailed event logs on the server side allows us to see if you have/had an unfair advantage over anybody else including the game environment. We donGÇÖt know all the tools out there and what they do exactly - and frankly we donGÇÖt care. If you get banned, then this is because the results of what you did and how you potentially gained from it manifested in our server-side logs."
So taken together this states that they find the ability to look at the overviews of inactive windows to be an unfair advantage, and they can't see and indeed don't care what the client actually looks like, they work from the server logs. As eve-o preview gives the same ability and obviously grants an advantage (otherwise why would we use it?) then there's absolutely no way I can see that it wouldn't be a bannable offense to use it.

THAT's whats bannable. L2READ and understand. How is that functionally different from having the saw windows tiled with the same infromation shows using eve-o preview, and more importantly how would CCP tell the difference without seeing your screen? In fact, take for example this EVE-O preview setup, how is that not going to give the same advantages? When in space you can clearly see the modules cycling and the cargo filling so you don't have to swap to each window to monitor the status of all 16 windows, you just click the preview when the given client needs attention.

on a short story .. useing Win+tab gives u pretty much the same outcome as eve-o .. will it get banned too ? .. and setting up multiple clients across the screen wizely u can see the modules statuses and whatnots .. the advantage allready starts by useing multiple accounts .. eve-o can be used by everyone so is it really an advantage ?

Jaantrag wrote:on a short story .. useing Win+tab gives u pretty much the same outcome as eve-o No it doesn't, since it pulls the focus off of the active client into the DWM. Eve-o preview allows you to be interacting with one eve client while looking at the inactive clients without having to switch to them. You can then respond to an inactive client the moment you see something happening. With wit+tab you need to press that to look at them, you can't just see the previews by default.

I've probably done a fairly noob mistake here. I edited the XML files and it stopped running. Deleting the XML files makes it run again but it doesn't seem to use the XML files anymore!
A) Apart from XML files in its own folder where else could it be storing settings that I need to nuke? B) What do I need to avoid when editing the XML to leave them valid? I introduced nothing that wasn't already present on another character's settings. C) Is there a way to move the preview windows if I remove the borders? this is the main thing I'm likely to be trying to jiggle numbers in the XML file for.
Reproduction steps: I fired it up and arranged one character for each of my accounts. So far, so good.
I then edited the layout xml files with the plan of duplicating characters within the same account rather than set them up manually.
I shuffled the order of the characters in the client_layout and flat_layout files, also tidied up some pixel differences by copy/pasting the height/width data and the y location of the preview file. This was done with the basic Win10 notepad.
Saved it, fired up eve-o preview and waited. Tried again. No preview, nothing in task manager. Tried running it as admin, no success.
Deleted the xml files, fired up eve-o and it worked so something I changed in the XML files borked it. As an added bonus deleting the XML files hasn't resulted in it recreating them, it seems to partially remember some of the settings for the program itself though.
Deleting the exe and copying a fresh version from the downloaded archive dosen't fix things either. Searching registry for eve-o didn't yield any saved settings apart from a crash report debug and two compatibility settings. I nuked the compatibility bits. |

A) it only stores files in those XML files in its own folder.
B) editting the XML files within the bounds of reason shouldn't cause any problems
C) currently, no.
Personally, don't use notepad. It screws with the end of line characters. I'd use notepad++ or wordpad. That might be the problem you're having. Perhaps try running as admin?
Whatever windows 10 did, it royally messed with EVEO Preview. Unfortunately, I have little time to do extracurriculars with how work is at the moment. Hell, I rarely touch EVE these days much do my dismay. At some point I'm going to finish my rewrite of EVE O Preview, but I have no ETA. The last time I touched the code was October.

Does it not still store the xml in a random appdata folder sometimes? I know it used to have an issue where sometimes it would create a random apddata folder with a bunch of xml files and you had to change the location of the exe file itself to get it to use local xml files again, so failing other things, try copying the exe file and the xml files you've got for it to a new folder and running it from there. I think it's something that happens when you're using some of environment path variables in .NET, or possibly if you're not specifying a root path and just aiming for a file directly.

Lucas Kell wrote:Does it not still store the xml in a random appdata folder sometimes? I know it used to have an issue where sometimes it would create a random apddata folder with a bunch of xml files and you had to change the location of the exe file itself to get it to use local xml files again, so failing other things, try copying the exe file and the xml files you've got for it to a new folder and running it from there. I think it's something that happens when you're using some of environment path variables in .NET, or possibly if you're not specifying a root path and just aiming for a file directly.
User/Appdata/Local did indeed have an _ folder with subfolders that were all eve-o preview related. user.cfg was the only file in there. Nuking that hasn't restored XML file creation but did seem to help re-default things.
Renaming the executable redefaults things. Renaming the folder redefaults things.
Neither restores XML files going in to the same folder as the executable.
If it really has put them somewhere random then surely it needs to find them somehow? If I try and use windows search for recently modified XML files Cortana pops up wanting more permissions. It sounds like it may be time to go find a third party search/file indexing tool.

@Basil Vulpine: I'd recommend doing what Lucas Kell said, move the EXE to a new folder or rename it the folder it is in. Thanks for reading and responding. If I can fix what I broke then this looks like it'll be very handy. |

Copy paste each of them into a site like this one, which will validate the XML and make sure It's not badly formatted. It might be that it's failing to load them and giving up.

I wiped the ones I edited and a search for files modified today didn't turn up any relevant .xml files on the hard disk. The Eve-o preview folder literally only contains the EXE currently. I did try putting in some data-less XML files too that just had the header and no characters, no joy. |

So cool program, but one major issue on Windows 10 (also had it on Windows 7 but it only happened occasionally): When you minimize clients as you normally would in Windows and then open reopen them clicking the preview windows rather than their actual instances on the taskbar, the window is resized to some asinine default size upon reappearing and that I can't figure out. Doesn't seem to be a value for it in the XML doc unless I'm misunderstanding the fields. Any help? |

It has to have some tie-in to the initial size of the application window because those are the dimensions it's reverting back to. |

So it's a sad day to post this, but with how work is going (ie: super busy) and the changes to certain things in EVE now and projected in the future I'm essentially retiring from EVE. I'm dropping all my accounts except for my main (this one) and will no longer need to use a program like EVE-O Preview. And since IRL work is where I mainly made progress on this program and I have no more time, I've essentially stopped all development on this. Does it work? Yes. Are there bugs? Yes. But that's why the source code is there. What I can say is that if CCP improves the game back to the point that I actually *ENJOY* EVE again, I'll be back. It's a sad day in my book. I've loved this game for nearly 7 years but I discovered last week that I no longer care about it.
I'll try to answer any questions yall have on EVE-O Preview, but it won't be regularly and I won't be tinkering on the program most likely. Fly safe space pals.

You're all quite welcome. I'll be quite honest, it's the IRL issues at the moment more than anything. But if I'm not enjoying the game, I can't justify 6 accounts and if I dont' have multiple accounts, I can't really test this program, now can I? I'm going to coast on one account until 2017 when the citadels finish and the mining gets updated and see the state of the universe.

So for some reason Windows wont open the program so i had to downgrade it to 1.17 and now when i move the preview boxes they just stack and wont let me move then and place them around the screen where i want them. Any help from anyone would be great. I would love to use this with all 7 accounts on 2 screens.

I now can get the program to open and it makes the smaller preview boxes. But when i drag one to my second screen they all snap under each other. When i move one they all follow. Ive tried different older ver. and they all do the same. move one and they all move. Ive been googling to see if it a windows issue but i cant seem to find a fix. Like i said i had it working yesterday so i did a restore to see if that would help and nothing. 1 of 2 problems fixed. |

that happens when you lounch and then he remember where you set it after selecting the user, each user is different so is your account have other toon and you set it up whit one of them you have to re set it for the current character you are login in. This is how i have it set up have work fine for me remembering where i set my toons. http://puu.sh/oM9pb/16079f7e3c.png |

it is true indeed that it will only work after you log in whit a character.
once you log in whit a character, the name off the client will change to have the name off the character. after that the program can tell where to place the window.
or do you guys have to problem after you log in whit all the characters? if so, can you describe how i can reproduce this bug? |

right on. nice to see this is being kept current. Never wanted to ever use ISboxer, and never will, so i'm glad to be able to use this again after a year's hiatus. I currently run this character off a laptop and 3 alts on my PC. i don't reallly need this program since i'm used to using the lowest resolution and the 'memory' preset for graphics, and have gotten used to the severe lack of sexy graphics. I have however noticed i like to use my laptop for fanfest videos (and other stuff like that) along with chat programs, and am using my PC for forum browsing (and other stuff like that) and i remembered being able to have small windows stacked vertically on the far left of my screen to keep an eye on things...and that's my motivation for downloading again.
thanks! |

Hello space pilots
The EVE O Preview project is not abandoned.
With kind permission of Makari Aeron I've taken it over. Currently I am working on the major code rewrite (and fixing the bugs added during it). In the next few weeks EVE-O Preview 2.0 will see the light. A new forum thread will be created then (as I won't be able to update the header post here).
Until then if you have any questions or just want to see the changed code feel free to mail me in-game.
Fly safe |

Hey @phrynohyas tig-rah when you have the pos up link it here so mod cans clouse it and we will mirate to that one.
- one option that i stay waiting is when you selectan preview that the selected one appear like whit color border so you know which one is it.
- and an option to automaticly display the preview in vertical or orizontal colums no matter the user is under, right know he only remember the account that you previusly open.
Thanks man so much for taking over this great app. |
