Launcher Version 971151 ♥

The Change to the Settings Migration also is greatly appreciated.

I just found out that I did'nt have to use an _ for spaces in that folder name, the migration tool handles that nicely.

The launcher itself will continue to use the settings' default names (Settings_n), as does the Server list from the E-Menu of the Launcher?

Good catch, not all parts of the name are properly sanitized. I'll fix that tomorrow.

Try turning of Automatically detect settings (Internet properties, Connections, LAN settings) for proxy settings - that can cause the slowdown. I hope to have a proper fix for this before going out of beta.

Should the launcher be updated automatically or manually

I have version 969236 and I see previous post stating 9711xx and 9712xx

I guess they are some nightly build or something alike, but I just wanted to check the version for a standard build was 969236 and I was not missing something.

or is self-update broken since I copied the launcher from another computer ?



and btw, since I'm living in edge (bad pun intended), where are these CI automatic build thingy?

well that"s exactly what it does

EVE Client is the one seting up the graphic and monitor display, and store the settings in the preference file

so use account 1 on Setting 1, set up the client for screen 1, quit
lauch account 2 on Settin 2, set it up on screen 2, quit
then account 3.....

now you have 3 display settings, ready to fire


what u may want to look at is : copying your actual setting in the 3 setting before hand to keep your in game preference, chat, overview, then do the setup

(I assume you know how to use graphic setting to fix monitor and you are not using windowed mode)

Yeah, that is not how it is working. Doesn't matter what Setting I use they all launch on monitor 1.

Also, when I (for instance) have an instance open and select my browser to type something here (on another monitor), the instance of Eve minimizes.

Not sure what you mean by your bracketed comment- If your talking about setting default monitors, it does nothing because as soon as I change the default monitor that is where every instance loads. If it is a client setting, then no I don't.

NB: running 7 instances on 3 monitors in fullscreen is gonna be somewhat difficult.

everything u are writing not working ... it is .. u just gotta set it up right ..

as u have 7 difrent clients u wanna run so .. do this :

go to your appdata/local/ccp/eve folder C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local\ccp\Eve


depending how u was using to launch eve before u might have difrent ways here ..

with symlinks u will have multiple folders each name pointing to your symlinked folder
and one launcher setting folder named c_programdata_ccp_eve_sharedcache_tq_87.237.38.200
go thro each of the symlinked ones inside is settings folder .. make a copy and name it "settings_1" "settings_2" .. and so on each of the folders and then send em to the new launcher settings folder .. hopefully if u were using symlinks u made the folder name distinctive for each account u logged on .. then on new launcher u pick the corresponding settings profile and ur launch .. suggest launching the clients one by one to check the settings and make adjustments if needed ..


if u did not use symlinks u already was using one launcher to log in all your accounts ? meaning u had to move window position every-time u log in ..

in the appdata/local/ccp/eve folder u prolly have 2 folders ..
c_"eve_install_location"_tranquility and the new c_programdata_ccp_eve_sharedcache_tq_87.237.38.200

go to the first one copy the settings folder then go to the 2nd one and paste it there 7 times (u can backup any "settings_x" files u had there ... then rename the pasted settings folders to "settings_1" thro "settings_7"

then u can just set diffrent profile numbers on each of your accounts .. first time logging in on em u will need to change some settings and stuff .. after that should be breeze ..

theres a cleaner way but allready long enuf text here :)


PS.


that usaly happends with alot of games when in full screen .. perhaps use your client in Fixed window .. wont lose any screen space (unlike window mode with the edges) and the switch between clients/ other programs is also better ..


feel free to pm ingame if u need some help .. ..

Hi all. I am trying to organize my games files on my SSD, and I have need some guidance.

When I first launch this new beta launcher, it looks like that it download all the binary from all the servers (not only TQ, but all others) and some shared cache files. It looks like a whole new install. I have no problem with the cache files, as I already locate then and move it to where I want.

However, where are these new binaries? What folder? Can I move it to somewhere else? Can I delete all the files at the older folder (the ones created by the still official launcher) and keep only these new binaries?

Thank you all.

The new binaries are downloaded to same cache folder. If you moved that using cache tool from E-menu, the binaries should be moved too.

And as it uses totally new binaries you can remove the official installation (if you want to do that).

ps. it only downloads updates to those extra servers only if you visit the servers page :D (which you did to see that those are downloaded :P ). Good thing that CCP appears to have options for those in development version. Although those servers shouldn't take much disk space (few tens of megabytes I presume).

Try turning off Automatically detect settings (Internet properties, Connections, LAN settings) for proxy settings - that can cause the slowdown. I hope to have a proper fix for this before going out of beta.
