Edited by: Cieries on 04/11/2007 12:14:42 Slackware 12 here. Installed the RPM package (ignored the dependancies) and ran the installation fine. However, since i'm on an awfully slow connection, it's taking forever.
Is there any way i can use the data files from EVE Windows and download just the binaries?

First of all, CONGRATULATIONS CCP
Second of all give us a fast download link or something people are going to die if they have to wait one hour to download Mac Client. You know us , mac users, we're crazy :D. And i hope this is not how you're going to leave it, especially as other game publishers ported their games for mac with cider but they run even better than on windows. Optimise it a little bit :D
Thanks CCP, just made my day -----------------Signature-------------------------

Oh damn... that's nice. Thank you.
This was the app I was looking for after all. Guess I get to delete boot camp tomorrow night!

Originally by: Zeminy This is actually very disappointing to say the least! Now we have to pay to play EVE and pay to play eve on linux! I mean seriously. Why not go with an open source solution like wine and we don't have to pay, than go with cedega and having to pay an additional fee every month.
There is no extra fee. It's all included in your regular EVE online subscription fee. I repeat, this is not a trap!
Originally by: Drudenhaus So there isn't really any benefit to using this client vs the windows client with cedega other than official support? I'm more concerned about performance than support as my client works with Cedega.
We've worked closely with TransGaming on resolving all issues with playing EVE on Cider and Cedega. Official support is very important and TransGaming is contractually obligated to resolve any issues that may arise within a certain specified timeframe.
Originally by: Serbina So where do i submit bug reports on the installer.
If you have any problems then please read this and submit a bug report.
Originally by: Dio Boli First off, this is awesome, thanks so very much CCP. Second: Problems...
Bug report, please.

Is there any chance of getting another clone off Tranquility before the official launch? I reactivated my account as soon as I heard this news, and I'm sure many others did too, but the account is still listed as inactive on Multiplicity.
Thanks CCP! This is a huge step in the right direction!

Go here and mention that you want to be re-activated on Multiplicity.

Well, after doing five reinstalls, I got 4 times nothing connecting, and the 5th a black screen. I shut vertex shaders and piexel shaders down to 1.2, no go.
What I did do to get connected was take my current EVE install under WINE, copy it into the .cedega install directory, and make the cedega install EVE.bak so I didn't lose it. Now, it works. The cedega installed one does not.
I'm at a loss.

Okay after playing with it a little bit i can say it's a great deal that we have mac support and linux support now. BUT, there are some issues. Not with bugs, but with performance. 55-75 frames per second in windows in the same system and 15-35 frames per second under mac os ? I have played other games ported with Transgaming's technology but they haven't really done a so well job on this one. I mean i had a -5 fps in other ported games in comparison with the windows version, but here the drop is astronomical. Even the ratting becomes boring. I don't even want to see how will Trinity 2 perform under cider. I will stick with my windows installation for playing eve for now.
Great Job CCP but hope you'll improve the client on performance. Thank You :) -----------------Signature-------------------------

I dont know about you guys, but I am truly dissapointed at CCP (borderline outrageous). I mean they are telling us for so long that they are preparing a new graphics engine. I think it is 2 years of work as I recall (maybe i'm wrong i cant find the post right now). A new graphics engine = a new client. From scratch. ALL the ships would have to be remodeled. FROM SCRATCH. I don't know about CCP, but if I were them and saw that almost a third of my clients are using linux (and another chunk almost certainly MacOS), the introduction of a new client would be the right moment to rewrite the entire codebase for portability, or even better platform independence (however possible that may be). I mean, a new graphics engine must be THE right time to maybe take a minute and think about the rest of us. I would have no problem to wait a little longer should there be a native version for macOS or Linux. However I find it enfuriating that all they did all this time was incorporate the Cider / Cedega engine into a windows client... Really, I've seen threads with rumors that go almost a year back on the subject. All this time all they could think of was this? Not one developer had the idea of platform independence? I installed wine and played eve on it in a matter of 15 minutes (without d/l times of course) and I am a new linux user. How hard could it be? As far as i know, the scripting language used is python. Both Mac and Linux hav native support so no changes there. The only problem is the use of DirectX. OpenGL anyone? I am sorry, but this whole Cedega / Cider deal is IMO a way to fool us non Windows users into thinking that they actually give a s**t, and keep us as clients for as long as they can. Stop thanking them. Open your eyes.

Just gave the OS X client a spin on my Mac Pro. Seems to work smoothly. Didn't check the fps though.
Only problem that I encountered so far is that Eve doesn't recognize my azerty keyboard. In fact I suspect that it doesn't check the system input settings. Very annoying when you're typing your password to login.
And thx CCP for making these clients available. |

I don't have any probleme with EVE+WINE and my Dvoorak keyboard. But the speed IS an issue (you need a Single Core 5Ghz CPU to emulate DX9 at a descent speed). So if your using Linux/Mac, Forget PVP and 0.0 space.

are there already benchmarks anywhere that compare the (official) linux client with the (unofficial)wine client. eve runs perfectly with the current wine release, so performance would be the only reason to switch.
lets hope that ccp does not interfere deliberately with wine compatibility to please cedega.

Originally by: Drudenhaus Please remove lines 44-47 from .updater/cedegaUpdateChecker and lines 93-96 from /usr/bin/eve or at least give us the option to run as root in the future.
Running anything as root, specially a desktop, is a very very exceptionally bad idea. How about you learn to configure your system properly instead of asking CCP to make their client open the doorway for some serious abuse?

That's really only true for inexperienced users. Theres nothing wrong with my system configuration.

Actually it's a bad idea EVERYWHERE. Imagine if a flaw is discovered in EVE that allows arbitrary execution of code remotely? Say bye-bye to your nicely configured system if you're ever the victim of it. Browsing the web, using irc, all these things are dangerous as root regardless of how experienced you are. This is common knowledge.

I get the same: I also have the error
Quote: ~/.cedega/.updater/gddb.py:26: RuntimeWarning: Python C API version mismatch for module gddb_parser: This Python has API version 1013, module gddb_parser has version 1012.
when I try and load it. No other useful debug output.
I got that same POS-error, it doesn`t make much sense, now does it?

And in 10 minutes I would have my system restored via network imaging. Don't imply that I do not know what I am doing. I have no desire to attach 'sudo' to every command I type or waste time configuring a regular user to do my normal activities (the only exception there is SSH of course).

And don't assume every other user out there is as up-to-speed with their systems as you are. Enabling running as root is a bad idea, regardless of how expert YOU are.
