C:\Users\User\Desktop\EVE-TEST\eve.exe /server:Singularity

Is the path I have made my shortcut go to

is a picture of the launcher, ready to go, all pached up.

Is a picture of the error I get when I try to connect to the server. Status says it is OK with 322 people online.

Do I need to add a specific IP address

Try using the IP instead of the servername.

by putting /server:87.237.38.50 instead of /singularity ?

Had this issue myself with the new launcher.

Open your sisi folder, find a folder called Launcher_old and use that launcher instead.

Do not use the login username and password system on the launcher window, instead you should have the classic 'Play' button on the bottom right. Also do not be alarmed at the sight of the launcher window being smaller than the content, it will still work.

I did try the server IP in my shortcut myself, too, and it did not work for me. So if that fails, use the old launcher in that folder.

If you used argument "/singularity" you did it wrong, try /server:singularity

Also that IP-address, are you sure that's correct? I'm at work so can't check it but I could have sworn it was 87.237.38.60.

EDIT: Finally got back home and checked the IP, it is indeed .50

I just updated launcher too and had exactly same result, but launch just moved to right hand side and you now log into client from launcher.

But if anyone ever gets difficulties here is a useful tip/work around:

Knowing that Sisi runs in a command shell you can use this to bypass the launcher

Goto »D:\Sisi\bin\ExeFile.exe

Make new short-cut to it,

open the properties of the short-cut and modify thus,

D:\Sisi\bin\ExeFile.exe server:singularity

save, now eve will open straight from the command shell.

DO NOT CLOSE THE CMD WINDOW that will launch Sisi, its usually hidden, close it and Sisi will terminate
