so when i went to update it just totally deleted the over 13+ gigs i already had before the download on demand thing now there is only this 5-6 gig shared cache. is it sapossed to do that (screwing those who already downloaded everything)

this bugs me cause i have limited bandwidth and eve servers never let me download faster then 1500 kbps.

I agree this shared launcher was a big mistake maybe if you use multi accounts and have a computer form 2000 with limited HD space but i have 5 and a half TBs i have room and dislike this shared resources crap I was suddenly getting the launcher starting in offline mode on all 3 of my computers I managed to get one to work again after redownloading the stupid resource stuff 19 times thats right I had to run the rescache.exe thing 19 times between it and teh repair tool.

On that note what did you guys do to the roles repair is started as admin but it keeps being unable to delete some of the files it finds messed up which i had to del by hand and even with that i still havent gotten 2 of my computers to even run their still loading the launcher in offline mode now matter what i delete and redownload and it all started happening after this release of teh shared stuff.
