Next week possible TiDi Test.

We're especially interested in some mac issues this week, so if you can, please use a mac

Can we update the Mac Sisi client now or do we need to wait? It's been awhile so I figure there will be some serious downloading involved.

Sisi client is broken. Cannot get past the EULA window. It needs to scroll to the bottom, but the window has no content.

I can't connect to the server just now, guessing it might be down or the client has the wrong address to connect to, as I definitely have an internet connection

I dod get past the EULA just fine but I cannot connect to the server: "Unable to connect too 872373850 on port 26000"

I-¦m running the newest mac client built. I checked eve offline and saw that other people get online just fine. I was hoping to particiapte at the mass test, so if you find a solution or something please let me know.

Edit: You guys with the EULA problem can have a look here, seems like they found a workaround: https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=16103&find=unread

Is there any way we can push these a little farther into the evening so those of us stuck at the office until 5 can participate :) Maybe not all of them, but a certain percentage of them?

Is there going to be a new copy of TQ before this latest mass test? I'd like to participate with both of my accounts, but the last copy was before I even made one account, and the other is about 8 mil SP behind.

What does "remapping system" mean? Change of stargate routes?

For players who play & test for you on Singularity frequently, the SP reward will be lost after the next mirror.

Yep CCP please make it woth some more for testing, I mean, 2 M SP on Singularity is a waste after all.

For players who play & test for you on Singularity frequently, the SP reward will be lost after the next mirror.

Would be a good sign to really put the reward on Tranquiity Acc`s. Better to lose them there by dying in an pod without an upgraded clone than getting it deleted by a mirror.

That will help players who are rather new capsulers to boost ther character a little.


I hope i could persuade you guys...

Fly safe!

??? Node Remapping? Like live node remapping?

The next mass-test is now planned for this Thursday at 20:00 UTC.

GÇóAll participants of the mass test will get 2 million free skillpoints on Singularity as small reward


I am a noob... after reading it again.. not sure what the point is of getting 2mil SP for the test server?

It was fun but not sure I am going to do it again if no reward on the main server.


Zen

Sooo its actual data about event on first post? (about feb 7)

Is deleting the Sisi folder all that has to be done to rip the test server out of my WIN machine? Don't see install option on the loader and it's not registered as an application. I need to recover 4GB of completely wasted disk space...

Dev's - care to answer?

when the hell u r going 2 update sisisssssssssssss database ffs it says last time ive logged in was like 6 months ago and i have 2 get my subscription up even tho ive done that already

The 1st of March is not a Tuesday. Did you perhaps mean Thursday? Or did you perhaps mean the 28th of February, which IS a tuesday?

Can we have officer rats for the NPC's? :D Estamel's invuln fields FOR EVERYONE!

are we waiting for a new version of SIS launcher? or can some one tell me that their SIS are working perfectly on 1 run?

Could you please write a bugreport about this and add screenshot and logs, so that we can investigate it?

theres no logs ... the repair just shutsdown after 10-12s ...
the sisilauncher remain as TSR jammed. requiring manual termination. so i like to know if its just me cos i can try this on multiple other PCs that i have.

Since the thread for this seems to be locked, can you please activate this account on SiSi. Thanks.
~Colonel

The wiki-page contained an outdated link to the reactivation thread. Fixed and account activated (but a new mirror will very probably be deployed before the mass-test).

If you have problems with SisiLauncher / Launcher or starting the client: Please write bugreports with as much information as possible. We know that there are problems for some configurations, but we were not able to track down all problems. Read this thread, if you are using a Mac.

is there a common test chat channel we all go into ?

"Mass testing" (I think)

WIN fleet ! o m g ... ok tnx for the infos ...

k anyway i dont think i wanna post 36 bug reports for the 36 attempts to start SISI lol ...

2 major things that did not happen as far as i see that made me do 37 attempts :

1---> the repair tries to update blocks, and it fails ... after it downloads all the blocks, it attempts to redo it all over again automatically ... and hence the numerous repeat attempts
2---> the repair tries to start, ---> file "zsync\rollingchecksum.pyc", line 88, in _unpackrollingsum .... error: unpack requires a string argument of length 4

and hurray number 37th

You EVE devs are weird. First mass test on Feb 14 (Valentines day), then mass test on March 8 (woman's day). Do you really want so much us to conflict with our wives/girlfriends?

Hi!

Details for the mass test on Thursday [April 12]

How to connect to Singularity for this test:
Follow the steps at http://wiki.eveonline.com/en/wiki/Singularity.

What exactly is being tested?

• Changes for Escalation (for example code improvements to crimewatch)
• Client performance
• Client stability

What will be the test steps?

1. Meet in Reblier (low sec, you can stay docked)
2. Undock and warp to a moon with a starbase
3. Shoot the control tower
4. Jump to 6-CZ49
5. Fleet W: Jump to EZA-FM and prepare a gate-camp
6. Fleet X: Warp to the EZA-FM stargate
7. Fleet X: Jump to EZA-FM, FIGHT
8. Warp to planet 1
9. Shoot some NPCs

What do I need to do exactly?

• Try running LogServer (in server mode), read here if you're not sure how.
• Join the channel "MassTesting"
• You will want to bring a medium-range PVP ship (for the fleet-fight and shooting a POS), we will provide cynos for capitals

What else should I know?

• You can get information updates by subscribing to the "Mass Testing Info" mailing list on TQ!
• CCP staff and ISD will be on hand prior to the test to help move players to the starting location.
• Don't forget to fill out the feedback thread after the test, the link will be posted during the test.
• All participants of the mass test will get 2 million free skillpoints on Singularity as small reward

You know the main issue is for people on MACS no 1 seems to even care 1 bit and its been posted that CCP will do something.
How funny it has been they will be loosing alot of people because of there lack of trying to fix the issues they say. MY friend who has been playing over 4 yrs is quiting because of nothing being done and this TICKS ME OFF IF they cannot help them then what happens to the linux and heavens forbid the regular one then what NO EVE > THink of what i said would you like to loose 1000's of people? Or what is your plan to fix it and when? Also you might want to worry about an invasion into Jove area we might mass there and find away to get in and blow you up THink about that as its being planned now. Not as a threat But as Insurance by many whom are willing to get things done even if it cost us trillions I know this will happen I have been listening to it for months. Its just a matter of time.Thats what i was told

ENJOY!!!!!!!!!!

will it mirror?

So this 2mil skill points... does that mean on the main server we will also get 2mil SP or just in the Test Server? <- newbie talking.

No, we will be using the existing mirror, which was taken on the 10th of April.


These 2mil skill points will be only on the test server Singularity.

Can we update the Mac Sisi client now or do we need to wait? It's been awhile so I figure there will be some serious downloading involved.

First

Will this week be less of a clusterfuck, both on the part of CCP with the probably-predictable grid-hopping issue, and the players that planned to land smartbombing carriers on the POS bash?
AKA, will the testing patch have had a sanity check, and are previous MT abusers banned from Sisi? Most people have better things to do than be stuck on grid with retards.

Habakuk said Tidi bug got fixed in the patch today.

Thanks for the prompt response.

The key is process iteration rather than 1-time efforts, as you hint to for the disruptors. As you've said before, the free manhours of testing right after an Sisi or TQ update is huge, so ensuring MT builds are working should be given somewhat higher priority than appears to have been the case.

Also, iirc Eve Voice wasn't working.

when i read about the testing i was all gung ho about it,
was a front page info from the login screen,
and i get some reward as well double cool,

buutt,,,

the skill points only work for this test server ?
whats the point in that,
i thought the entire point of eve, was to have ONE server,

thats like giving me money as a gift card that only works at a flower shop.

who the hell cares if i have a billion dollars that are only good in a flower shop in Antarctica where only 4 people live?


ps, thats 12 noon tomorrow for me here in CA usa rite ?



also, every item on the test servers only cost 100 isk, great of you want to play with some costly ships

which leads me to one more thing,,, if everything is free, why do we still need sp ??
youd let me buy a titan for 100 isk, but i still cant fly the thing..... that hurts.....

Would it KILL CCP to run the test on a weekend? or even late on a Friday?

I assume that you can understand, that it is more difficult to ask other Devs to come in during a weekend than to stay a bit longer on a working day.

But it is part of the job, is it not?
