Fozzie is fielding those requests, have your captain gather a list and send it to him.


Account names or character names?

And thanks for the help with all this, I know it must not be easy to manage but we all appreciate it.


The captains received an evemail from Fozzie detailing how to go about this, but it's character names.

And each system should now have a set of beacons as well. Let me know if your Battle Arena is in an unfortunate spot, I just kinda picked some numbers out of the air. Hopefully the vastness of space will keep them away from things~

the first step is to make sure you’re fully patched to TQ. From there, you’ll need to make a shortcut to exefile.exe, which resides in the “bin” folder of your Eve install.

If you open it up and the launcher appears, you did the shortcut to “eve.exe”

I seem to be having a "small" issue here. All I'm just getting is an error message saying:

The name 'C:\Program Files\CCP\EVE\bin\ExeFile.exe/server:Duality' specified in the Target box is not valid. Make sure the path and file name is correct.

edit: Fixed the problem. The extension should be placed after the endquote of the already existing Target path (NOT inside).

example:
"C:\Program Files\CCP\EVE\bin\ExeFile.exe" /server:Duality

Okay, SPs are out. There's been an issue discovered regarding the passwords not working on some cross-constellation gates, I'll be deploying a build in the morning to address that. In the meantime, it's advisable that people set their ship's POS password prior to traveling to their alliance's system as this should mitigate the problem.

Apparently it was scheduled to have daily downtime at 3:45, whoops. I'll do what I can to make that not happen again...

Can you clear the offices in the staging systems please, so we don't all need to travel 60 jumps?

Some staging systems, although hilarious, have no free offices
There are no AT Prize AFs on the market
There are no AT Prize BS on the market

Ping me if you need an office cleared, happy to stop by and take care of it.

I'll see about getting AT prize ships seeded. Are there any other exotic things y'all need like crazy ammo or silly drones?

I think it's just some of the AT prize ships and officer mods (for flagships), everything else seems covered. And even those aren't a big deal hi5 youdabest this testing server thing is both hip and fly.

hey guys, if you need a quick way of copying all your settings (overview, channels, etc)
after you've run duality at least once
navigate to

C:\Users\_a_\AppData\Local\CCP\EVE\_drive__eve_tranquility

copy and paste the settings folder into

C:\Users\_a_\AppData\Local\CCP\EVE\_drive__eve_duality

and merge/overwrite everything

replace _a_ with your username and _drive_ with the letter of your drive (for me it's "c"). if you're having trouble finding the folder you might need to enable showing hidden folders

hope this helps someone

Spots in our system seem to be centered around the star, not the battle arena, not much of a problem since arena is ~2AU from the star so its fine :)
But there is no offices left in our station, that is a problem.

Will something bug out if we try to recapture sov in this system? :D


Oh, and can we have that ECM Burst + Cloack of yours or even better - GM AT system commands so we can make testing a bit more proffesional? :)




@up - you have to copy only the 'Settings' folder inside the one you named, there is also a 'Cache' folder but it is a BIT heavier :P

Yup, the battle arena is intentionally offset a bit, as the real ones for the tournament are around planets so they aren't perfectly centered either.

I'll drop by your system and free up an office for ya.

No tourney tools though, sorry. Good idea for next year though~
