Buckingham was down from 22:40 till shortly after 1:00. Logging in at 01:34 should have been no problem. I will check tomorrow, if we can reduce the downtime a bit.

Getting same error as others:


-NameError: global name 'GetServerBuildNumber' is not defined


Tried force update, etc. nothing seems to kick it over.

Could you check the version of your launcher? Is it v.1.32 or higher? If it is higher, then you need to revert back to v.1.32 - either through copying it from your TQ install (assuming you have v.1.32 there) or through /forceUpdate. What is it doing, when you start it with /forceUpdate - is the launcher updating itself?

Why cant you use buckingham to test dust?, in the same fact i actually am a dust tester and still cant get on singularity? Ive had a beta on the ps3 since release.


Buckingham is at the moment offline, the daily DT starts at 22:40, but I'm not sure at the moment, when it ends. I'll check it out on Monday and see if we can reduce the lenght of the DT.


So, you couldn't use Bucky as the dust test server.... b/c it is currently in its DT cycle?

Seriously, i would love to test things, but can for the life of me get this thing to work.

And from what i'm reading, the error msg i'm seeing when trying to launch the client could be because the server is down...but could be b/c something is corrupt on my end? How am i spossed to tell the difference?

PS: where does one find the launcher version #? Every place i have looked (on current TQ and Bucky/SiSi meshup) says version 0.1.0.0 which i'm sure is not the correct answer. I tried the 'force update' and it DL'd a launcher version, then i quit out and switched back to the bucky IP...and same error.

Ok, I ran Repair on the folder I copied and it works now.

I am getting the "Account Expired" message though, do we still need to request activation in the thread?

I'm assuming hat Bucky is down, considering the launcher worked just fine yesterday and now I keep getting

error: [Errno 10061] No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it

Use this: http://eve-offline.net/ to check if the server is up or not.

Going to log in now and report errors.

Well, according to some ppl, 'we are not paying the so we can use test servers'...so with that school of thought, good luck getting this fail of a switch to work, took me the better part of my saturday (yippy) to get it working, and i'm still not sure what exactly 'fixed' it. Brilliant.

I however feel, they are getting paid to run these "public test servers"....and who is paying for them to do this? We are. Just like the failed AT broadcast this year, they spent dev time/money working on that, so WE paid for it, the fail it was.

CCP, please get your heads out of your hindsides and make something that functions....and and can you please check up on, oh i don't know...ANY of the 1.2 feedback threads....its been over a month...

Follow-up on this: Buckingham should now have DT from 4:30 to 5:00 UTC (eve time).

Guys, do you know you broke aggression and GCC?

I used an Ogre I to aggress the market station in Amarr. I could redock right away, didn't lose my ship to Concord or have to wait a minute.

Edit: people on FHC tell me this is working as intended?

had same error, was trying to do everything but nothing helped. right now a checked once more - error again. than in launcher options i'd remove mark from "Only display the launcher window when there is an update" to force load it, made a new shortcut and start up. launcher was showing tq players count but start to load some patch than on logscreen i saw it was bucki.. at last

updt: old shortcut with server addres as "/server: Buckingham" still showing error instead of "/server:87.237.38.69"

also had that same error as Lucius, finally just copied the add on of the " /server:87.237.38.69" and pasted into the shortcut again and that fixed the problem. No idea of what it didn't like the 1st time I did this but 2nd time worked.
