Two things.
One, for the love of EVE, can someone make a torrent for the OSX and Linux clients? I can't find any. If I still can't find any by the time I finish, I will.
Second, how are updates going to happen for these clients??
NOTE: How about CCP make the torrents? Seed for a day and it will take care of it's self... :-D PLEASE? I am not Aliastra because I am a n00b. I'm Aliastra because I don't need to stinking corp! |

Originally by: Dors Venabily Run the client Once the log in screen appears type in 87.237.38.51 in the server Combo box. Enter your username and password that you had on Tranquility the 2nd of October as the mirror was taken from Tranquility at that time.
hold on is this like a separate server for MAC and Linux?
Multiplicity is our public test server for Tranquility hotfixes, patches and updates, whereas Singularity is our public test server for updates and expansions.
Currently Tranquility is running Revelations 2.2.2-7, Multiplicity is running Revelations 2.3 and Singularity is running Trinity.
Revelations 2.3 will be deployed to Tranquility on Tuesday, 6 Nov.
Originally by: OptimusWang Why don't I have the option of running in windowed mode? I don't have 2 20" monitors so one can just sit black all the time. No dual-boxing makes me a sad panda
The EVE client runs fullscreen inside the Cider / Cedega window, but you don't have to have that window fullscreen. Look at the Cider / Cedega options to enter windowed mode.
I can not connect to Multiplicity either...

Thanks for that...all of a sudden the direct download links seem to be gone =/
The patch is going live tomorrow, and it looks like the official client for Tranquility is newer than the Linux/Mac test clients they posted in the news article. They probably want to save a couple people pain of downloading the client twice in two days. :P
You are right... and yet, wrong, my friend.
It was already pointed out that the wrapper has a built-in update checker. It was taken down, probably because they realized that inside was a patched client that (go figure) wasn't released yet. However, even if the builds are different, the updater will straighten that out for those of us who has already downloaded the client.
Otherwise, we would have to download the full client every time an update came out. And how dumb would that be?
That said. Why should one download the torrent as opposed to the client released in the morning? Why, to get a head start on things, get the 850meg client first and fast, and get the update when it is loosed.
It's up to you. ---------------------

Huh... Looks like there isn't an available patch for the MAC client loosed the other day? I tried connecting to Tranquility, and it says "no patch available."
Or do I just have to wait? ---------------------

yes.
you can not play on any server unless your clients build number matches the server.
it will auto upload (should). ---------------------

Originally by: Lazuran The currently downloadable patch is broken.
It asks me to reboot (huh?) and the client (eve.exe) says: "Your EVE client installation may have modified, damaged or corrupt files ... timestamp "2007.11.05 11:17:32", expected "2006.04.21 12:56:54".
I have a feeling this is because whatever patch you are downloading is the wrong one. The latest build (today's) is 41736. The MAC (and others) client, that was loosed the other day, was 41536, while the latest public version of the client before today was 37459.
This said, the latest "patch-able" client is the 37459 build, and subsequently, the 37459to41736 patch is the latest available patch. Attempting to patch OUR latest version (the version CCP loosed the other day) with the latest patch will lead to errors like you mentioned...
Piffft... ---------------------

Originally by: Illandria Kitrianne OK... this took a lil hoop jumping on SuSE 10.3, so FYI,
But you know what? I mean, it may be a little slipshod right now, but look at all the distros they came out to officially support. I'm not even a Linux guy, but to see more support than just Ubuntu and SuSE, it fills my little heart.
Just THINK of all the MONEY they are going to make! 
You know what I am waiting for now? Some one with a Linux box to do some tinkering and make us a private server software... I mean, I don't condone the act of piracy, and such, but I could see it happening...  ---------------------

I wasn't coming down on anyone/thing. I was just saying that I am happy CCP decided to spread the welcome mat for the lot of the bunch, and not just a select few (as was suggested earlier in this thread).
I used to have a few *nix machines. But being a web designer/photographer first, geek second (sometimes the other way around, but hey), the lack of Adobe (and once, Macromedia) products made me go back to the Mac and Windows world.
I would if I could, but in reality, I can't.
But do enjoy your SuSE box. And now. EVE! ---------------------

Hmmm... Still unable to connect to TQ at 1:41pm EST.
On another note:
The OFFICIAL (Build 41736) client is available for download in torrent form at: http://www.demonoid.com/files/details/1416584/15071824/ ---------------------

It said it was up, but it is still down.
Server graph is missing, as well as the Dev Blog feed and descriptions for a number of news items.
I would hate to be in the control room right now... ---------------------

This is what I get when I load the page:
We received a letter from a lawyer represeting the CRIA, they were threatening with legal action and We need to start blocking Canadian traffic because of this. If you reside in Canada, that is the reason you are being redirected to this message. Thanks for your understanding, and sorry for any inconvenience.
Then... your boned... ---------------------
