My patch day FU CCP

Launcher was saying "Client is Ready" but when I pressed Play, I was still required to restart EVE to install Client Update.

If Launcher can't install client updates, this isn't that big change since I am still required to restart EVE for most installs.

Launcher doesn't closes after pressing PLAY. I don't think it's good

Launcher doesn't closes after pressing PLAY. I don't think it's good

Update #1 installed via EVE itself and not by launcher. In this situation i don't understand launchers role. Launcher must apply ALL available updates. And EVE must patch itself only in situation when you launch eve.exe directly.

My client run verry slow !!!! Impossible to play (low frame/sec)
What is this? Uf, the old version was good...

Please answer my question on this in the issues thread rather than crossposting an unexplained issue to multiple threads.

Have you tried the "Import Patch" Feature? More can be read here: http://wiki.eveonline.com/en/wiki/EVE_Launcher#FAQ

The launcher is a failure while there are still client patches which are available only after the full client starts and which still require to restart the full client.

couple of things.

I run multiple clients. hopefully the launcher will now stop the multiple 4mb dl;s for each client? (btw. why do you not use the %user%\appdata\local\ccp\eve\download dir?)

Patches with the launcher. WHY OH WHY the root of the game install? Surely the appdata\local\ccp\eve\patches dir would be more sensible and allow easier multi client patching using the launcher?

Just some thoughts.

We still need to restart the client to apply client updates? lol

Our plan is to move this functionality into the Launcher in the near future. For the initial release, we didn't want to change too many things at the same time.

DED Complexes Get Even More Love

Ratters and mission runners receive a wave of new DED content for Blood Raider, Sansha and Serpentis pirate factions. Over 50 sites have been added, bringing new challenges and an array of new high-end modules that are sure to please those lucky enough to procure them.

In which locale is your Operating System?

If u want to know wheater there is a hyphen in the path:

How do I launch my multiple clients? All my settings are lost in each client.

In the past I would install and it would create an "Eve Online". I would copy the entire install and rename the copy to "Eve Online 2" and another copy as "Eve Online 3".

The client seems to launch slower for me.
Other than, good work CCP.

What's the point of having patch notes if you don't list half the things you're changing?

two threads about the **** launcher but nothing about the evemail bullshit

AGAIN EVEMAIL IS CRASHING 2 OF MY 3 CLIENTS AND ALL CCP IS ANSWERING IS

Hi, GM Haggis here,

Thank you for contacting EVE Online customer support.

There is a known issue with Evemail at present, please do not attempt to access this feature at the moment and your game will work fine.

Best regards,

Hi, GM Haggis here,

Please try clearing your cache to see if that resolves the problem. You can do this by going to Settings (ESC), select Reset Settings tab and from there you can select to "Clear all cache files". After doing this please restart the client and, if the problem persists, try "Clear all settings" as well. For further instructions please see the following EVElopedia page.

DID THAT ALL NOT WORKING, BESIDES I HAVE NO SETTINGS AND NO OVERVIEWS NOW, THX CCP FOR MAKING A PATCH WITHOUT TESTING THAT ****

can you guys pls not **** up this thread with the launcher bullshit too, there is already another thread about it, you might read it first

There's also a thread related to issues (it's even has "Issues" in it's name!). Maybe you should take your evemail spam over there. Oh wait, you already did.

Oh, and Minerals are automagically sorted by item quality low to high (Trit on top, Morph on bottom) but Drone poop is sorted in the exact opposite order. What other new and wondrous things will I discover in the market tonight?

edit: I spoke too soon! Despite perfect ordering of minerals by value, and Drone poop starting at the top with the two most expensive ones, it actually then goes all over the place meaning that it's probably some internal number that players can't typically see that is causing this organization.

I don't mind the name changes (which we knew were coming), so much as not putting a comprehensive list of what was changed in the patch notes. Or in the least indicating somewhere in the patch notes that the name changes were going through for 1.5. What's the point of having patch notes if you don't list half the things you're changing?

and the launcher doesn't even close himself .... probably you might tell me that there's some hidden option to "close launcher, after launching game" ... i just want to play eve, not play "find Easter eggs"

So yesterday I jump on the PC to have a quick bit of eve-time only to find that there is a new patch. Being the owner of 4 accounts makes this the usual headache...

I patch all four clients and and enjoy a good game of eve.

TODAY I return to the PC after a very enjoyable 14hr Night shift, only to to find the usual Patch for the previous Patch... I get ready for the usual 2-10mb patch to fix the previous patch, but find that the new launcher (Not that there was anything wrong with the old one..) Stop 1/3 of the way through the installation and give an error message.

I try it on the other 3 accounts and get the same issue... Try running the "repair.exe" in the installation folder and get another ERROR message. Now I'm back to RE-INSTALLING 4 accounts.

Two quick Questions:

1 - Did Any1 else experience the same prob today?

2 - After years of the game being live when are we going to have a patch that doesn't require an aditional patch ? Surely some1 needs to test these things before going live on tranquility ?

Fly Safe

* The Installer is great - at least for people playing on one account. A fix for people playing multiple accounts is mandatory. Also, please include the "optional" client updates ASAP - launcher should decrease the patching time, not increase it.

sound is fukked since the patch right now.
FIX IT SOON?

to add some positives: =)
Dots and commas as decimal separator AWESOME
doubleclick in the order window to show market details AWESOME
noobships not really neccessary but AWESOME

Repairer
Useless.

Type Error __init__() takes 6 arguments (2 given)

Can I get my hands on the rest of that log? Dump it on pastebin for full HTML loveliness.

When I have to install an update with the launcher it says it is unable to while I have iTunes and Open Office running. Is there a reason why these programs can't be open while patching but other programs are fine?

Does the update specifically mention those applications, or did you do trial and error to find out what to close before it continued?

Did you determine it was EveMon by trial and error or did the updater mention EveMon specifically?

Indeed EVEMon has no interaction with the EVE installation. I updated my EVE clients while EVEMon was running.
Ofcourse I have my EVEMon installed outside the EVE client installation folder.

On behalf of
The EVEMon Dev Team

We merely check whether or not a process is running from the EVE client folder .

Thank you :CCP: for wiping all of my settings again. I appreciate the opportunity to have to re-do all 29273 shortcuts, windows and dialog boxes that I had set up just like I wanted before the "patch". Seriously guys, will you EVER test you crap before you release it? This is not the first time all the options got wiped.

I'm sorry, but I've read the patch notes carefully 3 times and I still can't find the bit in the patch notes where it says warping a cloaked ship inside a POS force field will now decloak the ship. It didn't used to, but with this patch it now does.

Please can we have our cloaked ships inside POS forcefields back.

Drahcir

It asks me specifically to close those applications. Maybe I'll uninstall Open Office and iTunes as they are much faster to reinstall than EVE. Although I didn't think it would matter since they are in separate folders.

The Patcher itself worked fine... BUT

Serious FPS Problems....

Down to 5-10 fps when at planet, 2-8 when entering incusion site.
Max FPS is on warp with 25-30 fps

SOLVED: Reset all settings with launcher tool

Tried all out, lowes settings, best performance, Interval imidiate, one, default, four.. etc.. no changes...

never had problems before..

So let me get this straight....

I used to click the Eve Icon on my desktop and it started the Eve client and took me to the login. I would then login and select my character that I wanted to play with that particular day...

Now, I click the Eve Icon on my desktop and it starts Eve Launcher, which I then have to click to play Eve, which starts Eve client and takes me to the login. I login and select my character to play with.

Right now I am thinking wtf? Shocked You have just added another step to the whole startup process. What is the point. Is there any way I can bypass this and just start Eve client directly? Seems like a waste of time.

You must check something else as well, since in my case Eve client is in C:\Games\Eve and EveMon is in C:\Games\EveMon.

> EVE Online: Crucible 1.5 has been successfully deployed.

No it has not. It's bugged as ever.

My user preferences once again got wiped because you are just a bunch of clowns who give a **** about properly dealing with bug reports. So I give a **** ever buying your products for real life money again. And I'm telling everybody I see to stay away from playing EVE, as it's not worth it with all the hassle involved.

Even the new launcher is a ******* joke. Slow like in the 1980ies. Ever heared of P2P?

Instead you're removing manual patching... ROTFL


And wanna hear some news?

Your loser launcher requires me to confirm I want to play after having started the application.

How fun is that?

+1 for launching Eve directly if client is up to date.

It's annoying as hell to click on Play, especially if you are switching characters often!

Have a look at the settings of the launcher. There's one for what you need.

You must check something else as well, since in my case Eve client is in C:\Games\Eve and EveMon is in C:\Games\EveMon.

If you're on win7, 64 bit,
Check if CCP has made a new folder in your %appdata%\Local\CCP\Eve

If so, do this:

Browse to
%appdata%\Local \CCP\EVE\c_program_files_(x86)_ccp_eve_tranquility

Copy the folder named "settings" from here into this folder and overwrite:

%appdata%\Local \CCP\EVE\c_progra~2_ccp_eve_tranquility

Credits go to Miss President
Although according to a CCP post it should have already been fixed, but it never hurts to check.

Edit: I would link Miss Presidents' evegate profile and the CCP post, but it seems the boards don't like to parse the url tag.

Good to know that CCP doesn't test on such uncommon platforms as say... windows 7 (64bit).

On the plus side looks like the main sound bug was fixed pretty promptly :D (atleast doesn't seem to be a problem any more for me on either client on any PC I use).

I really like the new launcher. It makes it a lot easier to navigate to other eve related links (youtube, eve news, etc.)

In the future when/if Dust is released on the PC maybe the dust client will be added to this launcher so we can easily switch from eve spaceships to eve fps.

Question: If i leave the launcher open on my home computer while i'm at work, will it automatically update my client so it's ready when i get home?
