Few remarks:

(about 973625): The older version of beta launcher used underscore between path_to_shared_cache designation and server_ip. The new version - right after I started it - didn't (e.g. c_games_eve_basetq_1.2.3.4 vs. c_games_eve_base_tq_1.2.3.4) - which caused minor sideffect of profiles not being seen in newer version of beta launcher. NOTE: cannot reproduce it with 973659. But maybe there're some underscore related issues still present.

The directory with all settings is bound to path_to_shared_cache and server_ip. Any changes here (essentially cache migration) forces user to copy all settings manually. So before the final release it would be good to handle it somehow.


Also, one of the other things people do is syncing per-character settings - which essentially comes down to cherry-picking core_char_*.dat and core_char_*.dat files and copy/overwrite as necessary - or alternatively use hardlinks to share actual per-character settings under the same account. This stuff is particularly useful for things such as market quickbar or extensively changed keybinds. While there is nothing wrong with this method, perhaps new launcher could assist people with that somehow (as - syncing settings between characters outside the game).


As you moved launcher related files into single directory, perhaps it would be better to keep them in single directory, say:

CCP\EVE\.Launcher\{cache,logs,QtWebEngine}

instead of

CCP\EVE\{cache,Launcher,QtWebEngine} mixed with EVE related settings

I just closed the import client settings box by mistake after i updated the launcher.. is there any way i can bring that back because i can not find anywhere i can do that?

renamed profiles \o/, but would prefer the drop-down to the select box u put there .. was easy to see when launching what profile is selected for each account .. all in one page .. now if if i happened to forget whet i was doing the last time id have to double check the profiles ...

"Mac version
The Mac version of the launcher is getting close, but it is taking longer than we were hoping. We hope to start in house testing next week, and make it available to players for early testing soon after that."

Only part i cared about. The rest will find its way to perfection!

The updater needs very specific arguments to do its job.

Try running the launcher as administrattor - if that fails, uninstall and reinstall from https://binaries.eveonline.com/EveLauncher-973659.exe

When trying to load past the EULA, the option to accept decline is hidden behind the 2 adverts. I have removed it, and reinstalled, but still no luck getting the EULA to come to the front and enable me to click past.

Edit - Found the workaround in another thread!

So, launched the beta launcher today, and it decides to patch 3.5gb of data....no clue why. It then proceds to hang about 30% of the way through (I waited 30mins for progress), so I closed the launcher and started the regular launcher, which is now patching 6.5gb of data. Grr....ah well, could be worse I guess.

This is really going to make my old EVE Client tutorial a lot easier to teach.

Please, can you add a possibility of switching between dx9 and dx11?

Please file a bug report, mention my name in the description so it gets sent my way. Give as detailed a description of your symptoms as you can and include system specs, including any virus protection and firewall setup.

Attach the logs from %LOCALAPPDATA%/CCP/EVE/Launcher.

I´m hoping to add diagnostics to the launcher to help figure these sort of things out, but first I need to know what the edge cases are that are preventing the launcher from doing its thing correctly, so this info would help a lot.

Thanks for trying the launcher and providing this info.
