Currently the almost daily updates are taking longer and longer to first 'Install Files' then several minutes to re-open the launcher to 'Validate Files'. WTF you just installed the files now you want to validate that you did it right in the first place and take more time, Notice that the 'Adverts' keep cycling around without any delays.

Cleared the cache and Oh boy...another ten minutes 'Validating the Client'...seems to hang on 73.2% for quite a while.


These issues have been plaguing me since the initial deployment of Odyssey.

Have you noticed that if you constantly jiggle (move it in fast succession) your mouse across the loading bar in the launcher window, it actually seems to speed up the rate at which the files are being transferred? Once I noticed that, I haven't had to restart my launcher to validate, etc. since.

On OS X 10.8.5 on my Late 2011 Macbook Air my launcher is crashing with the following error report every time:

Hey Guys,

I don't know if this will help or if it has been just a random occurrence for me.

So here's what happened: I usually leave my dude in a friendly hangar when I'm done playing at night (I usually go to sleep less than an hour before the nightly maintenance). When Odyssey came out, I had major problems. Had to go through the updates several times and/or run repair.exe until it finally worked.

As more updates came in, I continued to have problems.

The other day, I came home and, expecting another update, decided to completely close out eve AND the launcher before trying to log in and get the update. To my surprise, upon starting the Eve Launcher, the update installed correctly and I was on my way in just a few moments.

I've now gone through three updates without any problems.

Again, I don't know if this will help anyone else but figured I should post this since I haven't seen anyone talking about completely exiting all Eve software (including the launcher) before trying to log in and getting an update.

Oh, and exiting all the software after going through a failed updates did not seem to help matters.

Hope this helps someone,
Marglar

Ever since the latest patch there is a delay in displaying the system and route section on the top left of the screen.

Once you jump into a new system it sometimes takes a good 3 to 5 seconds for it to display. It previously used to be instant; as soon as you jumped into the system it would tell you which system you were in and give you the options to jump to the next gate on your route or to a planet/belt/station in the current system.

I have an issue with warping to gate cloaked (Buzzard)

When i select warp / jump button to a gate cloaked and land at 0km my ship will not jump, it will just say "Approach" and stay there. This did not happen before odyssey upgrade.

When i do this uncloaked, it will do as it should.

Because you have to decloak before you can jump, maybe?

Everything in EVE is a trap.

And if it isn't, it's your job to make it a trap...:)

A clean install using the offline installer worked for me, after 4 tries downloading partition 2, on cellphone tethering... Not fun, but at least I managed to log in losing only a few hours of training...

Well, in 9 years of playing, that would be the first time i would have to manually decloak before jumping through a gate

The cloak offlines when an object is within 2km.. i.e. Gate at 0km (as i said in my post).

another patch and still no fix for the NPC 99% resists, the word useless comes to mind.

Regrettably, I got greeted today by a new patch, the launcher gets to around 25% and gives an error message and fails to patch, manual patch didn't work, repair didn't work (repair actually broke the launcher). I can't afford to download the full game every patch. I never had this issue before last week, now second week in a row... Offline downloader will take hours to finish, if it even finishes correctly and I don't have to restart it 3 times like last week, I'll lose some more training time and my cellphone provider will probably not be happy about another 5GB+ DLd on tethering.

I have tried every fix I've read about to no avail. Launcher would originally sit on %0 verifying client, so tried to start the game without the launcher and would get another error after repeatedly trying to download the new patch. So I uninstalled to try reinstalling and now I cant even D/L the client. I've run the installer and get an extraction fail. so I try the offline installer and it tells me eveonline_614137_1of2_7z.0lw40lv.partial "couldn't be downloaded" I'm getting the impression CCP doesn't want our business. Thankfully I can still log in and cancel my sub.

Those stories of "cannot patch", "cannot log" and "cancelling my sub" reallly intrigue me, I had a very old (7 years old) computer with Windows XP on it that never failed to patch EvE, that one died and I now have a brand new one with Windows 8 on it, and I *STILL* never had any problems ...

The only time I had a problem downloading a patch was when my Spybot Search&Destroy program was not configured to accept downloads from CCP ... two mouse clicks solved that.

Are you guys tolally sure it's not a problem on your end ?

ISP blocking CCP's address, antivirus/antimalware program configured to reject everything, something like that ?

An issue which was causing damage to become only 1% of what it should have been has been fixed. This happened at a very low frequency and was mainly seen when shooting at NPCs that had almost no structure left.


glad to see its fixed at last but had to laugh at your 'very low frequency' comment.

The issues on my end are so random I no longer know... it failed to patch this week again, so I uninstalled everything and reinstalled from the offline installer I got last week and that client patched... but today, again, I'm faced with the same issue, so I will try once more to repeat the process and see if it works again. This worked yesterday, nothing has changed on my end, I logged on and played, today patch failed, repair failed. I'm doing my best to document all errors and save all logs and submit them to CCP.

Reboot.


  1. Turn Off Antivirus and anti Malware programs.

[list=2]
  • close as many programs as possible.[/list]

  • [list=3]
  • Then, load the launcher and let it auto update.[/list]

  • This worked for me and saved me from a night of bad TV and cheap meaningless sex with the guy across the hall.

    As someone pointed out above, it often takes the current system info at the top left of the screen several to many seconds to load. Also, quite often the Overview goes blank after jumping into a system and stays that way until docking-undocking or jumping into another system (at which time it may or may not go blank again).

    Literally ever since the launch of 1.1 a few weeks ago I have been having an issue with the session change timer locking/failing to fully load after jumping through a stargate.

    I jump through a gate and the session timer locks/stops at either 9 or 10 seconds and doesn't load no matter how long I wait. It doesn't matter what I'm flying or doing when the stargate is activated, tried with without mods running and different ships etc.

    Most of the time local chat opens but the graphics don't fully load and I cannot take any actions with the ship at all.

    It seems like the only workaround is to close the client and reload it through the launcher. when I do this most of the time my ship is in a safe and warping back into the game. Once in a while I find my ship at the gate instead of at a safe. (I lost a ship and got podded once when it didn't put my ship to a safe).

    The issue is getting worse in that once it occurs with a system change session change it seems like that systyem stays bad like that and it happens every time there.

    I have cleared cache, defragged my machine, tried playing in safe mode, tried lowering graphic requirements to minimum etc and even completely uninstalled/reinstalled client and the problem has not gone away/been fixed/gotten better.

    Yes, I have filed bug reports with at least one file for recreating what happens when a GM mentioned how to do that several days ago.

    This is the last thing that showed in log before I shut off the client because the session stopped loading:
    14088 2013.09.24 18:09:51:574 Removing session file C:/Users/Doug/AppData/Local/CCP/EVE/c_program_files_(x86)_ccp_eve_tranquility/cache/2644_6609871696126880480.session

    Warping around in a system works fine. Docking undocking, fine. Change systems and it might/might not work right and once it stops working right it ceases to work for that particular session change forever.

    Has anyone worked around this issue and is there anything else I can do that might this? Please keep in mind I started in July and had no appreciable issues with gameplay/connections until after the most recent launch.

    Thanks.

    Could not connect to the specified address. Odds are that you have not established an internet connection, the server isn't running, or the server address or port number was wrong.



    this just started around 3:00am east coast USA time so around 07:00 eve time .....

    i got a droped connection while in game....try to reconnect an got the old launcher...and was like a new install an first log on..re booted computer and same....run the repair tool....same thing again......

    any idea what is going onUghUghUgh
