*fixed*

Deleted launcher from TQ folder, along with any patch files. Ran repair tool, left comp to download 7.4GB

Feels like a waste of download data (damn aussie ISP's) but at least Eve is back up.

Cheers for help :)

So it seems trying all the various options the day before yesterday have deleted my TQ client's settings too, after all. Probably because I did try using the Duality installer.

Eh, I'm not that annoyed by that though. Just a warning: using the test server installer will most likely lose you your UI settings! So don't do it, at least not without a backup of the settings folder.

If you've got space for 13GB or so of cache on your C drive, try making a shortcut of the exefile.exe (found in EVE\bin\) and modifying that shortcut's target line to have /server:Singularity, just like you did with the eve.exe shortcut. That gets you past the launcher and directly into the game (which the sisi-repair should've fixed to work with Singularity already). You'll be running a 'true' DoD though, can't prime the cache with your existing .stuff files if you do that.

edit: if you don't, you can still use the repairfile+exefile method, you'll just also have to make a file junction, type the following in command prompt (should work on Windows Vista or newer):
mklink /J C:\ProgramData\CCP\EVE\ D:\EVEsharedCache\

You can of course substitute another target instead of D:\EVEsharedCache, but that's what I used, since I keep my games on D.
