Just logged in from the launcher and clicked it again and another eve loaded. My question is you dont need to have 2 differnt eve files now to run 2 clinets.

You can run multiple instances of Eve from the same install but they share the configuration files which can lead to performance issues and occasional crashes. The recommendation is to use Eve Clone Maker which allows you to run a single install but with separate configuration folders. The good news is that you only have to patch the main install and the clones are already updated.
