How do i use this file once i have it?


once you have downloaded the patch file, start the eve launcher. Once the launcher loads, click on the tools icon in the top right (it actually looks like a pair of tools), click the patches tab, then click import. Point the open file window to where you saved the patch file to, and then click open. After that, if things are working as they *SHOULD* be working, your client will import that bit of patch, check for any additional patch files required, and then launch Eve.

In other news, I am still unable to patch my client. I decided to try and do a full install of the game client from the offline payloads, and guess what, they seem to be corrupt. After 3 tries, I was finally able to get the 2 payload files downloaded, and thought they were valid downloads. I went and ran the installer, and during the extraction phase, it sits there for a few minutes like it is thinking, and then bam "Archive extraction failed: 3." I am still waiting to hear back from CCP on what the MD5 checksum is suppose to be, so that I can see if maybe my download got corrupted somehow, or if this really is a problem with the files that CCP is hosting, in which case there is nothing I can do until they fix things.

And so far, I have a rather lengthy petition waiting to be answered about this issue, along with every bit of info i can gather from my attempts to install eve. Hopefully someone is able to help me get back in game. If i cant get back in game come time for my next subscription to roll around, then looks like me and Eve will be parting ways.

I'm having the same issues trying to reinstall EVE after the patch failed. My petition hasn't been acted on either, so I'm kind of in the dark.

Just a follow-up. I was finally able to download the entire payload using Firefox's 'DownThemAll' addon. I used it in conjunction with the Hotspot Shield VPN, and finally was able to install the EVE client.
