Hello I have a macintosh client issue

I found a kind of workaround for my case :
the corrupted files during the download are random so you can remake a good APP with several corrupted APP that you had downloaded (open DMG, ignore checking, open EVE app package then move files manually to spot corrupted one, sometime there is 7, or 2, or 5 etc it's random but you have good chance to have not the same corrupted file in all archive)

*edit* make a new folder named EVE Online, with exactly same arbo and file as the APP, inside if needed make folder for app, when you have copied all and only good file and folder, add "app" at folder's name end to make an app
delete the cache, EVE pref in library etc all what you can about EVE before launching the program

after that , i have to launch EVE several time until it works,(update patch, applying patch etc) because launcher quit or freze without warning
but the patch is only a few mega and minute and it went well

except a big bug with changing resolution and windowed mode, it work fine, so i suppose i should be happy
