William Caldwell Gallente ISS Navy Task Force Interstellar Starbase Syndicate	Posted - 2007.05.24 09:13:00 - [1] Since sme recent sisi patches I no longer see the eve client to generate a cache foler in it's working folder & no more prefs.ini file and stuffs ? Where are these files stored now, i.e; portraits and the other cached files ? Even settings folder has been removed but I still get my user settings as they have always been even if I delete the eve client completely and do a fresh new sisi copy and patch it. Are these things stored on the server now ?

CCP Oneiromancer	Posted - 2007.05.24 09:54:00 - [2] Screenshots and logs are being now stored in Documents and Settings/currentuser/My Documents/Eve ... Cache and settings are stored in Documents and Settings/currentuser/Local Settings/Application Data/CCP. This is part of the Vista compatibility changes.

Tricky Redstar Systems Inc	Posted - 2007.05.24 11:50:00 - [3] How is thing going to work out with different accounts? I used to run my accounts from seperate folders to keep the cache seperated, with less crashes as result. Running more accounts at the same time from one folder/cache doesnt increase game stability for me.
William Caldwell Gallente ISS Navy Task Force Interstellar Starbase Syndicate	Posted - 2007.05.24 12:06:00 - [4] Oh thx, got them now! And I run 4x accounts from same eve client for years now using same cache folder and same puter (with some upgrades), I never had a ctd or what ever.

Cache and settings are stored in Documents and Settings/currentuser/Local Settings/Application Data/CCP. This is part of the Vista compatibility changes. Does Eve use the variabeles? or is it a hardcoded path? I myself dont have the profiles on my C drive for example, will the cache still be created on C like so many other games do? Also, The 'My Documents' folder can be moved separately from the profiles, by the feature 'Move' from the properties menu. Does the Client recognise these changes in default path? Thanks :)

I really don¦t want to have thousands of chatlogs on my system disc and for sure not in the documents-folder! I second that. I third that (edit: forth that now apparently). All this tiny files being written to the disk (seriously, can't we have 1 file per login session? or at least 1 file per hour or something?), this severely fragments the drive that they are written to. And now you want to put it on the system drive? I beg you to reconsider. Furthermore, i have dual WD70 Raptors, 10k RPM, setup in RAID-0 to optimize my game's disk access. These are a separate drive from my system drive. Now you are screwing me out and basically saying that i can't choose to put the game on my dedicated gaming drive? (Access requests to cache/capture folder is far greater than to any other folder in EvE) Finally, i have multiple accounts, and when logs from all those accounts get combined into the same folder, it's really not nice. Just spent more than need trying to find logs from test server.... Can you at least append the logs with the character name? Oh and BTW, in the current version on the test, the logs are written to the new direction, but they are definitely not being read from there. Every time i clicked on the logs button in-game, it came up empty == Above comments are my personal views Oveur >Local shouldn't be a tactical tool, it's for chat
MotherMoon	Posted - 2007.05.24 23:20:00 - [13] um if you running different accounts on one computer they would all go to the same folder anyways... unless you run each of those accounts off a different downloaded cilent. which is stupid. you can run 3 instances of eve off of the same cilent. nd normal stuff. so what you guys are saying doesn't make sense however I do want to seperate my test server and normal so what's going on?

I have 5 clients on my HDD, 3 for TQ and 2 for the test server. For some strange reason my comp runs 3 clients better (more stable, faster etc) if the clients are in seperate folders. Also if you take the time to look into it there were several developer posts saying that it's the smart thing to do.

Running more accounts at the same time from one folder/cache doesnt increase game stability for me. I need to rebuild my Vista box, but at the very least a possible solution could be to use RunAs to launch a second client as another user. This does indeed work. It's not a great solution in any way, but if/until CCP introduces something better this will allow multiple clients to be run correctly against separate cache folders. This is only tested under Vista BTW, but it should work under XP too. 1. Create 1+ accounts for EVE, and log in to each so that Windows sets them up correctly. 2. Make a new copy of EVE if needed, then start up EVE and configure it how you'd like. 3. Log out and go back to your main account. Create a batch file with the following and put it in the copy of EVE you're allocating to the new account: runas /profile /user:ComputerName\NewAccountName "eve.exe" 4. Create a shortcut to this as necessary. It's not a very elegant solution, but it'll cause the second EVE client to be fired up using the extra Windows account and hence seperate their settings/cache folders. ---- AUS Corp Lead Megalomanic

Keitaro Baka Babylon Scientific and Industrial Enterprises Babylon Project	Posted - 2007.05.25 09:21:00 - [19] This is a serious issue.. I hope the devs are really scratching their heads on this one.. They should know everybody can run at least two different clients on different versions with different settings (TQ and sisi).. All the stuff above does not necessarily reflect my corp, my alliance or even me.. Drone guide..

Mephysto	Posted - 2007.05.25 15:14:00 - [20] The move of the cache/settings and related writable folders to the docuements & settings is part of the ongoing updates we are making for Windows compatibility. However, we are working on a way of allowing the client to run under the old system for those people who wish to keep their account and server settings seperate between different directories.

However, we are working on a way of allowing the client to run under the old system for those people who wish to keep their account and server settings seperate between different directories. Any chance that u can make the paths for cache, screens, logs choosable individualy ? , atm im using a ram-drive for my cache to speed things up a bit, a way to choose different locations for files makes life more easy and might improve performance on the client side aswell without the need for .bat files to relocate them.

Lin Dei Gallente University of Caille	Posted - 2007.05.25 19:02:00 - [24] This is so confusing So basically, if I follow those three steps my cache will remain in the same place? Or will it be in its own folder in documents & settings/bla/bla? ------------------ If you see me post it's because either: 1) Silly forums made me do it 2) Because I was too lazy to change characters 3) Because I wanted to 4) <insert mod comment here>

Helison Gallente Times of Ancar THE R0NIN	Posted - 2007.05.26 13:19:00 - [27] Originally by: Mephysto The capture and logs folders are now permenantly moved to C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\My Documents\EVE So it will remain impossible to keep the logs out of "My Documents"? Please think about this once again. As the client creates thousands of logs (specially chatlogs and gamelogs) within a few months, this could be problem for my system, specially for file-search. And I really don¦t want to delete logs manually every few weeks.

I would like to keep it old way (c:/eve/cache), i understand that u want ppl to start using vista (since ccp is microsoft fanboys heh) but from my programmer point of view, settable folder for cache/logs/screenshot is matter of ONE variable (well ok 2, 2nd for settings, or just 1 for using "old style cache"). So why not make it avialable to just set it in prefs.ini ? Like relly, your code is not messed so bad that it cannot be setable, at least i hope so.

It means that no matter how many installs you have after this hits TQ, you'll only have 1 settings file. For those that use multiple accounts, or have different settings for different alts on the same account so they can easily tell the difference, or for those that use sisi and TQ (and for the qa'ers any other server they use) it's going to case no end of issues due to differences in settings files for different versions of EVE, Hence the workaround I've posted...

Unacceptable... Give us an option to keep the current system where everything game related is in ONE directory. This change might actually be the one that forces me to quit playing Eve...

Kirov VIII	Posted - 2007.06.02 20:08:00 - [41] Please write an option in the "prefs.ini" file where you can write the path !!! Some people optimize the system drive for speed and storage the data on another drive !!! Second, the system partition can be corrupt more easly than another !!! You have a lots of I/O on the system partition. It's really NOT good to place by default the cache in "docs & sets" !!!

Some of us don't care about the contents of capture and logs, and as such would rather they just be tucked away with cache/etc instead. The only workaround what I found so far to separate your logs is the following: Let's take that your EVE home directory is: C:\Program Files\EVE Create a My Documents directory in this directory. ( C:\Program Files\EVE\My Documents ) Create a starteve.cmd file put this as a content: set USERPROFILE="C:\Program Files\EVE" Start "eve" "C:\Program Files\EVE\eve.exe" /end /LUA:OFF Exit And now run the starteve.cmd Side effects: If the My Documents directory is not existing, or the USERPROFILE setting is incorrect, then when you start the program, you do not get the login screen, but the program is running in the background. You need to kill it with a task manager. More info here: http://oldforums.eveonline.com/?a=topic&threadID=527827

Dylatar Gallente	Posted - 2007.07.01 12:01:00 - [50] Edited by: Dylatar on 01/07/2007 12:01:45 /signed The command line parameter options to force data staying where it is didn't work for me. That caused 2 clients on PC B not be able to login until I removed the parameters again - that caused one client on PC A to completely get broken, so I had to install a new one. So I was forced to allow data storaged on C: if I wanted to be able to play eve. C: is the last place where I want to have this data, as I only have Windows itself on C:, the swap file, and some free space for temporaray files. The eve data massive cuts down that spare space. I even don't have my documents on C: drive- I have D: for regular software, E: for games, F: as a big file archive. So eve data should be on E: for me, not C:. Give us a way to MOVE BACK the data and settings where it was before! And keep in mind that some of us now have merged the settings of 2 or more clients on C:. If its not possible to separate them again, then give us a tool to relocate the settings and cache to two or more different locations of clients as it is, without separating them. But once when they are copied to the different client locations, they can be modified separately again at least.

Santa Anna Caldari Blackguard Brigade Phalanx Alliance	Posted - 2007.07.01 20:31:00 - [51] Is there any way at all to have my second account function properly running vista? I had to do a complete reinstall to get my first account to work, but now my second account does all the same bull**. The idiocy of this attempt to comply with vista's security model is epic. I still can't understand why the ** CCP changed the way EVE operated under Vista. Everything worked perfectly before. Now it's been two weeks since the patch with no feedback at all. What possible purpose was served by breaking your subscriber's ability to play eve? And running a program written by a company that borked their own client as admin is not an acceptable "fix" to the problem. _____ Heat Warfare
Burken	Posted - 2007.07.04 02:28:00 - [52] Originally by: CCP Oneiromancer Screenshots and logs are being now stored in Documents and Settings/currentuser/My Documents/Eve ... Cache and settings are stored in Documents and Settings/currentuser/Local Settings/Application Data/CCP. This is part of the Vista compatibility changes. I don't have Vista (and will not get it) but know it will be no compatibility issues if it should be as before. Please give me control over my files and don't clutter my "My Documents" folder with things that not belong there since EVE best game I've played so far. My 4 accounts will be inactivated until I see it be solved, if not.... well have to find new game to play then.
