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.

The new launcher was working fine for me on SiSI, but since the today's update on TQ I cannot play anymore. Nothing works :S

I can only connect to those after an INCREDIBLY long wait, as in several minutes of waiting before anything loads.

Well I have the offline bug for the launcher too, my Repair tool seems to think there's nothing to repair. But fortunately I've snuck into eve via other methods.

I just started the launcher, updated it and got to same offline page as others.

Then I started exefile.exe which tells me there is a 6mb update.
Downloaded it, installed it.
Then launcher update started automatically again, finished, launcher starts, offline.
If I start exefile.exe it will go through all this again over and over.

Tried repair, says OK, I start launcher, guess what - updates itself then says I'm offline.

one of those times I'm really glad I'm training Battlecruisers to V and it's going to take till the day before the expansion, I can afford these idiotic mistakes.

I launched via the exe in the bin folder. Then it was broken. Then I ran the repair tool. Then I launched again via the bin folder exe and it worked.

Same offline mode problem. Submitted a ticket, tried the links and only the second worked. Tried it on my laptop, same offline issue. Called friends told them to stay away until it was fixed. So now that only a few of your friends can log in, wtf are you going to do when a system is taken or a pos is destroyed because the launcher was not working?

The Launcher is borked for me too. Since I can't log in might as well post on the forums.
