Any chance of a 467201 patch?

My launcher is in the dreaded 15% loop.

Well, where is now a patch?
Launcher again, however, as always, will not update ...
Why there's nothing at http://content.eveonline.com/473035/EVE_Online_471766-473035_win.zip ?

Seconded... Unable to access the manual update page. Seems as though the link does not exist yet.

Alternative patching method
January 21st, 2013: Updated links to client version 471766 (Retribution 1.0.12)

Patch notes here
Older patch links can be found at the bottom of this post.

Instructions, Windows:

If you are unsure which client version you have installed you can circumvent the launcher by starting the \CCP\EVE\bin\exefile.exe executable. In the top left corner of the EVE log in window you'll see the currently installed client version. From that you can determine which patch you need to download.

1. Download and open the zip file which will take you to the current TQ client version
2. Copy the .patch file into the EVE Online client folder, usually that would be C:\Program Files\CCP\EVE
3. Run the launcher and it'll do the rest for you automatically.
4. Download and open the latest zip file
5. Copy the .patch file into the EVE Online client folder, usually that would be C:\Program Files\CCP\EVE
6. Run the launcher and it'll do the rest for you automatically.

Here are the latest Windows patch files.

Instructions, Mac:
On mac it gets a bit more complicated.

To find out which client version you have installed on your mac right click on the EVE Online application and select "show package contents" there navigate into Contents and then Resources.
Double click on the "EVE Online" application and note down the currently installed client version number in the top left corner.
From this you can download the appropriate patch for you.

1. Download the appropriate patch version that will take your client up to the latest version
2. Open it by double clicking on it after it's been downloaded to extract it.
3. Command-click your EVE Online client and select “Show Package Content”
4. In the new window that popped up, browse into “Contents” and then “Resources”
5. Copy the .patch file into this folder
6. Run the launcher.
7. Download the appropriate patch version
8. Repeat above steps 2 - 6.

Here are the latest Mac patch files.

Can we please get the link or file uploaded for the EVE_Online_471766-473035_win.patch file? This patch is causing numerous launcher fails due to a corrupt download by the launcher. The file does not appear to be uploaded as of yet, so a manual work around is not possible. Have filed a petition as well as a bug report for this issue.

This link still isn't working for those of us who need to patch the game manually.

The reason my launcher or repair tool do not work properly is because I am behind my university's firewall, which blocks many connections such as P2P/Torrents. Most games have gone to this method of information distribution, so I need to do this with most games.

If you're able to check your router, modem, or ISP's settings/policies, I would say to check wether or not P2P/Torrents are permitted through your network. Unfortunately if you are in my situation where I am unable to access the router, you are stuck with this manual downloading and patching method.

Hi everyone,

I have just decided to play again and need an older patch. (391117-xxxxxx)
Is anyone able to help out?
i have tried to download the install from scratch but i get payload not found. when i try to do the offline download it will not even let me download the payloads. So patching looks like the only way for me

I have downloaded the latest patch and inserted it on the eve folder, but launcher wont start, repair tool doesnt work due to the same problems as of the laucnher !HELP!

It is due to the Launcher getting a time out when attempting to query http://content.eveonline.com

Are you behind a proxy or something, because having it every time would point to something about your connection that prevents it connecting to our content servers.

I am still not able to update due to my current connection type which i play normally but my problem starts when an update is due. So i am unable to play since this the latest patch about 2 weeks ago. Please CCP can you make me connect without this stupid launjcher thing. Why things that used to work properly are changed and ruins the game?

@Colonel Marshall
I'm online with about 128kBIT/s (~16kBYTE/s) and downloaded the patches from the first post in this thread. Then i added them with the "import patch" from the launcher settings menu and it works.
