Are people still having this issue?

(not asking about from a few days ago. Today. Now.)

Woo! CSM XI!

Lido, just as a possibility, have you checked the path of your shortcut to see which launcher it's going to? Just to see if this helps, I'll repost:

My EVE launcher was set to launch from C:\Program Files (x86)\CCP\EVE\launcher\launcher.exe for a long time. Worked well. Then suddenly it would act like I was trying to go to a web page that didn't exist. I changed it to start from "C:\Program Files (x86)\CCP\EVE\eve.exe" and it's good now, but still, I wonder what the change in the first place was all about?

I am still having problems with the launcher.

I have tried the various fixes mentioned here to no avail.

I appear to have the current version of the launcher installed (v 2.2.871481) but each time I start it I get a message telling me I am using a previous version. I am able to play the game by pressing "Y" in response to the question posed.

Now the strange part - I have two PC's pretty much set up exactly the same (except for video cards & monitors) both operating on my home network using the same ISP. This problem only happens on one & not the other

Isn't it obvious?

They don't know how to fix this.

I don't have launcher issue but, when i start launcher is says 'You are running a pre-release version of eve launcher.... bla bla bla'.. If i choose 'ok' it just maybe the old launcher, but if i click 'cancel', the eve launcher will display "Failed to download update for Eve online launcher", and I cannot log-in.

For people having launcher problems (not the eve is offline one, but others) https://ccpcommunity.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/202664365-Reinstalling-the-Launcher may help.

It's just the launcher being replaced with an up to date version, rather than your entire client, so it's pretty small. And it's dead easy.

Woo! CSM XI!

That dude above is a player NOT CCP.

But maybe the csm dude can tell ccp to issue a statement on this ASAP.

Dont care if the dont know whats wrong/how to fix it, ******* just say so and acknowledge us NOW

Steve

Thanks for trying but after trying this (again) it does not work for me.

I am still getting the same message - "Running a pre-release EVE Launcher".

I am able to continue playing but I'm wondering what's happening to any updates & how long it is until my EvE grinds to a halt.

What's the number at the top of your launcher, in the title bar?


(I'd suggest submitting a bug, or posting in https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=topics&f=272 for a better chance of having something seen by CCP.)

I've had this problem repeatedly and with increasing frequency for about a week. Unfortunately I didn't note the date it first occurred. The only solution is to keep retrying until it works properly. This is occurring on both my Toshiba Laptop and my custom-built desktop, both run on Windows 7.

SO I have had a ticket in on this for over 2 days now. When I first submitted the tick, I got a response back in less than 5 minutes! Yay! Except the guy who responded decided he couldn't fix it, and so moved the issue on up the ladder. Since then, silence.

On the other hand, the launcher works this morning. Here's hoping they don't break it again.

May I have your stuff?
