Grats to CCP for rolling out a buggy launcher; don't you have a QA team making sure this doesn't happen?

For those of you who seem to have lost all of your settings, the AppData folder for EVE seems to have spontaneously changed. Previously my cache and settings were stored in "C:\Users\[USERNAME]\AppData\Local\CCP\EVE\c_program_files_eve_online_tranquility" and it has now created and populated the folder "C:\Users\[USERNAME]\AppData\Local\CCP\EVE\c_progra~1_eveonl~1_tranquility"

Check these folders, and copy/paste your settings folder from the first to the second if they both exist. Don't bother copying the cache, it's gigantic and should be deleted just about constantly anyway.

EDIT: The AppData folder on OSes other than Win7 will be in different places and the folder names will vary depending on your EVE install location.

Blanking signatures doesn't seem to work, so this is here.

Ok Im nto home so I can't check on my PC if I have issues aswell. But I have an important question, if we're logging-in in the launcher with SSO, does this mean no more multi-boxing or am I just being daft?

Keep getting error messages after logging in on the launcher e.g.

Unable to download remote build number
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "lib\update.pyo", line 597, in run
File "lib\update.pyo", line 654, in IsUpdateRequired
File "lib\update.pyo", line 215, in __init__
File "lib\decorators.pyo", line 18, in __call__
File "lib\info.pyo", line 182, in GetRemoteBuildNumber
RemoteBuildNumberUnavailable: Unable to fetch build number from server
... (then about 500 words of other text)

But it just gives the option to launch EVE though anyway. To be honest I preferred the old launcher because rather than being able to launch 2 clients at once and THEN log in, you have to "switch character" and then launch it, which is rather annoying.


I'm having the same problem, same error message. Play button is greyed out, but in the bottom of the error-message I get the option to start Eve anyway (genius btw^^)

Can connect to both links, the second one takes ages tho... I suspect the launcher tries calling this file but times out.

CCP Atropos, the win_launcherinfoTQ_inc.txt was not reachable till now.

https://client.eveonline.com/launcherv3 is not responding (or returning content)

This new launcher is not working - like many others, I'm getting the Offline mode message.

After many attempts, I managed to log into my first account. My attempt to relaunch in order to log my second account failed.

Connect, yes, but it'd call this ultra-slow. Bytes/s slow I am talking here.

I can, but they are incredibly slow.

Ping times to client.eveonline.com seem okay.

This thing wasn't working on Singularity properly either, I had to remove all the spaces in the EVE folder for it to work properly there.

Anyway, my wife wants to extend her thanks to CCP for rolling out a launcher that is successfully preventing me from playing EVE.



Big up to your wife.^^
