Launcher won't apply patch it downloaded.

I usually start eve with exefile as having to start a program in order to start another program is the height of irritation to me. That said with today being patch day I used the launcher so it could patch (otherwise the client freaks out and makes you download pointless data).

The patch downloaded as one would expect, but for the last 20 minutes or so it has frozen, and is not installing the patch it just downloaded.

So, whats the deal? If I restart the launcher will it try to redownload, or will it recognise it has the files and simply try to install? I do have limits on my data usage so redownloading around 1gb of data is gonna be a serious kick in the teeth.

Same problem. Closed the launcher and restarted. It recognized the download and created the files, but still not patching.

Done my time in null sec, now I'm just a Privateer wandering around High and Low Sec.

Update: Got it working. Don't know if it made a difference, but I signed in this time.

Just gave this a try. Signed in, it didn't do anything; closed the launcher, restarted it, signed in again first thing, and it started patching properly. You others may want to try signing in, too, if you haven't. (HOORAY LAUNCHER.)

Tried that, restarted client, signed in.

It's now downloading everything all over again... bye bye bandwidth... (approx 5 days of playing eve per update)

It gets one more go then i'm done for the month, else ill be eating into bandwidth I need for emails and other important things for the next 3 weeks.

Today I am a sad panda.

I can confirm logging in as soon as the launcher opens fixes the issue. Multiple machines. Also used my laptop to test this theory.

4th time downloaded. This is getting out of hand. There is only so many times you can download this big file on a 1024Kb/sDown // 256Kb/s Up internet line.

Trying to do the logging in trick via launcher just produces an error.

Attempting to do the repair trick.
