Players in my fleet but not in my corporation can not use the Orca fleet corporate bay because thier is no item on the orca menu to open the corp bay.

What happened with todays patch to the launcher? I can't run a second (or third, or fourth) instance of the client from the same launcher since todays patch, and it was definitely ok this morning.

I am NOT going to have multiple launchers all over the place (I detest drakes enough as it is ...) so please CCP, explain why the launcher wants to update itself EVERY time I run it, and therefore sees the existing exefile and demands it is shutdown first?

I think I have a workaround by selecting "only display launcher when there is an update" which at least goes through to firing up a second instance of the game (which after 10 minutes seems to be happily co-existing with the first one), but this was not needed until tonight. C'mon CCP, I am sure you don't want obstacles in the path of people who want to pay you more than one subscription, hmmm?

Big smile



Confirmed, this problem exists since yesterday latest launcher update, only workaround you described is helping, dunno what CCP was thinking about to change it this way, while before the change nearly everything except the allready reported issues was running just fine.

CCP....i'm really start to think you guys often doesn't make your homework completely or think your thougths about changes over as it should be....so please.....fix this problem and please do it quick.

In regards to the Corporation Orca hangar, some GM's said it was not mentioned in Patchnots but planned change.....again here i see complete fail by you CCP guys, you nerf a Teamplayer feature and doesn't offer a solution or replacement for it, making players life even harder to work as team....and please don't come with the saying 'But but but....you can tractor jetcans to the orca and empty tem in the Orca hangar!!' This is working yes, but attracts Canflippers massively which i don't think was the intention for this change i'm sure.

Game crashed 2 days in a row after 1.5 hours of playing. Normally the game is very stable on my AMD, 32bit windows 7 computer, but after the last patch im starting to get crashes.

Last two client updates are trying to download the old fashion way, not through the new installer, on all my clients. Have tried running repair tool with no change. Tried launching installer from EVE folder file instead of desktop shortcut. Made no difference. Cleared all cache files on all clients and restarted computer. Didn't help.
Trying to download update from log in screen does nothing. Can close update window and still log into game.

Getting an audio chirp when jumping through gates and fitting window is very flickery when opening. Not sure if these issues are because of client updates not updating.

Just re-experienced a bug that I hadn't seen in a few months where I jump through a regional gate (initiate a session change) and then experience the system / server clock desynchronization which results in the inability to navigate anywhere in the destination system for a period of time.

I don't know if that bug was never addressed properly or it was re-introduced recently, but **** me, that defect was the worst thing in the world for PvP and it kept me from actively participating in fleets. Will un-sub if this bug is as common because it prevents PvP.

I'll submit a new bug report or add on to my previous report(s) to get the relevant data in the defect tracking system.

### Defect ID: 123807 ###

Edit:

A couple more issues experienced:

A) Upon jumping into a system via conventional gate travel or docking up in a station, the game's audio (I know, sound in EVE, right?) steps up several notches for a second and then goes back to a normal level. This is highly repeatable.

B) When initiating warp, there is an odd graphical artifact or glitch that appears. I have only experienced this a handful of times, but I have never seen the problem in previous releases.

Can I get a link to the current repair.exe file? Someone said they copied it from somewhere and ran it from there newly-created Eve directory and it installed the game there. I currently don't have any Eve files on my computer as I did an uninstall. Reinstallation has been problematic as well.

Thanks in advance


had the same issue. if re redownload the game and it stopes half way or just befor completion, download a fresh copy of repair.exe from the last post on the previous page and drag it into the uncompleted eve_file and drop then run. dont run it unless its in the ccp folder.

this will then repair the final stages of your download

Where do you take that from? That would be one of the stupidiest design-choices ever.

CCP? Could we please get an answer if you guys acknowledged that problem?!

I have not seen this issue posted anywhere: my ECM drones don't have the option to "assist" or "guard". Is this due to recent patch? i have not seen/read anything about this. all other context menu are available. i.e. engage/return and orbit/return to dronebay/scoop and abandon drones are all available. verified with another player: he did not have the same issue. I can command to assist or guard with my combat drones however. i'm stumped. any suggestions?

This is a little documented "feature" that has been in-game for at least a couple of years. I have experienced this as well and it always surprises me.

thank you for clarifying that. Maybe I should run this post in a different thread since it is not related to patch issue. I find it hard to beleive this "feature" is valid "game balancing". you are surprised? I am stumped!
anyway, see you in another thread

Graphics issues since updating.

In station even while ship spinning background corrupts.
Text boxes including help have traingular shaped gaps.
Triangular shaped gaps in planets both in space, on PI screen & on log in.

On AMD catalyst control 12.3 Windows 7.

Posted a petition but I don't think this'll be solved.

NPC Agents in stations have shadow figure showing as portrait. Shadow figure also shows as Agent portrait in the Agent mission text box.

Agent info box shows correct portrait (no shadow).

Sounds like you've placed one of the intermediate systems on "avoid" and the route planner cannot find an alternate route.

**UPDATE** Nothing avoided, clearing cache didn't fix. Reset all settings still no dice. Repair, no change, reinstall no change, hunt down and eliminate every reference/file/folder related to Eve then reinstall SUCCESS!! it had only started after the Patch so I suspect it was either a corrupted file or maybe just Windows way of telling me "F*ck You and Have A Large and Happy Day!"
