To know on what level my point is: I do love Eve and I do appreciate the good work of CCP, even more lately when some really huge efforts were done that have a positive impact on how I can play the game. This said:
Quote:If you want to connect to a different server you just use your /server:87.237.38.50 (for Singularity). Double click the icon and you will get patched up to Singularity! It is however highly recommended that you donGÇÖt do this to your Tranquility install and that you only do this to a copy of your EVE directory.
Please, no. No. No.
Still that copy, hard to install and watch over ("How long might it take to even update my Singularity version?"). Still those mirrors ("how long am I behind that particular skill, that is intersting for me right now?") Still all Faction items gone since ages after the mirror, out of the contracts.
I want a second button on the login screen for Singularity. I want an auto update, an interface that mirros daily. I want a playground to test my fittings with the same easiness to access like Duality is, or like a disappeared 3rd party software was. I don't want to care of whether I have a copy or not. I'm demanding the software to deal with that. Singularity is becoming a fossil. In my opinion a great tool slightly is loosing its potential significancy. Too long it is, since a corpmate suggested: let's plan this assault, the maneuvres, the dps on Sisi. |

soooo... ready to get into the game... all patched up. I go to log in, and what do I see? An old school 5+ meg client update on the login screen, after the new launcher finished updating everything. Whats up with that? Aren't those supposed to be a thing of the past now?

I only skimmed through this thread, so please excuse me if this has already been brought up.
Quote:If you are into sophisticated things like opera and hamburgers[...] Sign me up for that. And when talking about opera, I really mean Opera, my favourite browser. Hitting a link in the launcher will open IE, which I do not use and nobody really should. Furthermore it will just sit there without an URL to open or is that just me?
Please make sure to use the system's chosen standard browser and passing an URL to it.
While I was writing this and the launcher downloaded stuff, it threw an exception: http://pastebin.de/24192 The Windows error in German says "cannot access file as it is used by another process". |

Seems alright but I have several installs on my computer for a few reasons. So now I had to download all the data again and again. Its not a big problem as I dont pay / MB, but it is slowing things and makes more load for your servers.
Also I havent tested yet, but can you now run separate launchers at once and update the clients at the same time? If not that would be cool... |

Something wrong with the installer of the new Launcher..
launcher crashed on installation... entire client screwed now. 3 other corp members have the same issue.
Running MAC OS X 10.7.3 on iMAC
Support is not being very useful at this stage..

Try copying/overwriting the files of your extra clients with the ones from the client you updated. There should be no need to download everything again if you already have it on your disk.

This is up next on our hitlist. We didn't want to change too many things at the initial release as it increases the risk of something going wrong. It was a big enough step to rewrite and replace the current client patching mechanic for both windows and Mac.
But yes, this will be included in the Launcher in the future.
Quote:The Windows error in German says "cannot access file as it is used by another process".
This is a known issue and will be resolved in a point release.
Quote:Please make sure to use the system's chosen standard browser and passing an URL to it.
It does, we just tell the OS to open the link in the default browser. I just tried this on machine with Opera and it worked fine.
Quote:Launcher doesn't closes after pressing PLAY. I don't think it's good
Open settings and go to the startup tab, you can make it close if you want it to.

Update requests an admin login from my windows. I am admin here, full admin, with all privs and logged in. There is no other admin account, nor another admin password. Refuses my admin acc+pass however, which means no install, which means no eve. First time I've ever seen that kind of request, as well. Not good. |

Disaster! It asks me to download the 3MB file, I do so, then install it errors and asks me to run the repair.exe which doesn't work.
Total diaster. I just came back to this game after a year break and I remember the frustrations of builds just never working on launch. Massive massive fail. |

It is most likely saying that you still have files in the folder you're trying to install into. I would suggest going into that folder and manually deleting files you have there or install into another directory. Associate Technical Producer - Core Technology Group |

I can't belive that CCP copied imho the badest thing that the most other MMORPG have. It's slower, looks like the others and is the badest Idea they had for a long time. It's a lot slower, full of bugs and there's a good chance that you're client not gonna work. I had an "Exeption-Error" on C:\\Games\\EVE\\bin\\python27.dll. Very nice errorhandling To be honest, I saw that comming. I really miss the old updateing system. I really appreciated it and was proud that EVE don't had that bad launcher systems like everybody else. Can't belive that there are Spacepilots (customers) out there, who really demand such a useless tool. I'm just disappointed from CCP. Over.. |

Well I basically give up.
Patch doesn't install.
Repair tool loads nothing upon clicking it.
Uninstalled, then attempted to reinstall 'bulk data missing'
Downloaded the two zip files it told me to, 1 hour later 'nulk data missing'
Can't even get the client onto my computer now. Shambles and no help whatsoever. |

All I did was killed the Internet Browser processes in my task manager and the patch went through just fine. I guess when you're at the Eve website it uses some files in the Eve folder and the patch can't do its thing.
Hope this helps someone . |

I didn't have this issue, but another person on teamspeak said they were using Google Chrome and by closing the browsers they were able to resolve this too... But another person I told this to didn't seem to resolve the problem using this method.

Quote:You can chose to only show the Launcher if there is an update to the game.
When will this actually be true for the Mac client without having to screw with config files? The option claimed to exist on the wikiGǪ well, it doesn't exist. I really don't appreciate being forced to waste even more time than I already do, waiting for the loading of the emulation junk wrapped around the EVE client to finish loading so I can finally start to log in.

that being said a nagging memory of boot.ini being replaced comes to mind...
KEEP it simple and KEEP US in Control of the program, if this becomes some p2p networking crap that kills the bandwidth while im in a telephony conference (voip) then its pretty simple, eve will be deleted and subs cancled.
dont try to put crap past on us like u do in the past, from the all the errors and problems im reading this is YET ANOTHER rushed release that is total garbage.
we pay your wages and keep you in business, we arnt here to deleiver your content, to advertise for you.
source code for this launcher better be open. im sick of ccp crappy releases and rush patchs.
This is the exact reason that we've added download throttling to the Launcher. Please dig through the options when it's gone live, we'd love to hear your feedback . I would also like to add that the Launcher currently does not use any peer to peer traffic. More information about this can be seen in the FAQ on the first page. Nos Pheratu wrote:How about building proxy support? What is currently stopping you from using a proxy? Does the Launcher change anything?
I haven't tried the Launcher yet, but one can't play EVE from behind a proxy that requires authentication, so i assume the Launcher will be the same, which means guys with slow connections that used to get their patches from the office, like me, will no longer be able to do this.

There are tickboxes that make sure the launcher doesn't launch when there is no update. I think it would be awesome if this was the default setting..
Right now it's a bit silly, I press the eve-button and then eve asks me, do you really want to play? YES that's why I pressed the freaking eve-button you stupid. |

Sisi is currently at version 354441 TRANQUILITY.
I downloaded and installed a new sisi client and am trying to launch it but all I get are errors, which of course I can't copy/paste due to poor error reporting design.
They're all crc errors like this one:
Verification failed: 'C:\Program Files(x86)\CCP\Singularity\bin\Awesomium.dll', crc:11fc12a0 expected: 40b5533.
When I launch the repair tool, it tries to download a crc .dat for tranquility, version 353549. start.ini says server=Tranquility (on a fresh sisi download!) and launching an eve.exe or launcher.exe shortcut with /server:87.237.38.50 does not help.
In short, the new launcher sucks, this sisi client build is broken, and I wish I still had a working sisilauncher.exe |

I had similar issues... tried to "repair.exe --server=sisi" which ran and got the client to 354441 btu then loggin in it still tried to connect to TQ and so not compatible. Tried the launcher but if starts to download a patch back to 353549 so cancelled quick... (I did let it run the first time but of course had to redo the repair then)
Finally your message gave me an idea... worked fine for me when i used "..\bin\ExeFile.exe /server:Singularity"
Hope this helps if anyone is in my situation |

Welcome back from Fan Fest. 1st, after installing new launcher on Win7 Ultimate 64bit(Eve TQ works great) I am unable to connect to SiSi. It takes me to TQ. I have a separate SiSi folder for it on "C" drive. I ran repair in SiSi folder, right clicked and ran as admin and used "run as admin" when attempting to launch SiSi via the new launcher IN SiSi folder..I am not a software guru/genius, heck even "smart" with win7, but I sure would like some easy/clear method/way to alter any files needed to connect to SiSi. I cant locate the bin file to alter or input the /sisi:Singularity (if correct) as I do not use icons on desktop. I pin to task bar. Thanks in advance for reading and providing any help, remember, I am not a Win7 l33t user :) |

The current error tree if the launcher cannot find an internet connection needs to be replaced with a simple connection check and no internet connection pop up. Would solve alot of the corruption issues caused by failing to find a connection. |

I fixed my problem by moving the sisi client from C:\Program Files (x86)\CCP\Singularity to C:\Singularity and marking each folder within it as not-read-only (the sisi install itself was created by copying a working 1.5.4 Tranquility folder). Then I ran sisilauncher again (version 135) and launched, boom it worked. I had previously been running the repair tool and sisilauncher as admin on the sisi client within program files dir, and it was certainly patching everything, so I have no idea why this actually fixed things. I just saw it suggested in a forum search and gave it a shot.
This is pretty messed up, CCP! |
