Hello Launcher testing people,

so here I got two major problems I encountered today:

1.) The new Launcher doesn´t connect me to SiSI, it happens just nothing when I select SiSi and then press "Play".

2.) The Launcher can´t be unistalled at "Win 7 due to some kind of administrative issue, but I´m the admin of my own computer.

I think this connection problem could be related to my directory, but to fix this, I need to reinstall the beta launcher and maybe the game itself, which is impossible if I can´t remove the new launcher from my HDD.

If those problems can be solved, everything will be awesome!

o7 and keep the good work going!

I would try starting windows in safe mode to uninstall. Or you might need to take ownership of the install folder.

I would also place all of EVE outside of Program Files folder. Try My Documents\Games\, for example.

did u install the new launcher directly to your system drive ? C:\launcher etc ,,, ? if so then set premissions to your user account for this folder sometimes windows manages to makes to mess up when u install stuff directly to C:


Sisi..

after u pick it, reload the page (right click reload) see if it helps ..

CCP why do you hate us industry guys.

Have any of you guys try running industry with 4 or 5 accounts, and do with this relaunching game instead of reloging

So its way faster just run game from .exe and do reloging all those alts when running industry jobs



having using the .exe to launch 6 accounts and the new launcher i can freely say the launcher is faster. yes it is a BETA so issues here and there is accepted.

\

then try re log alts on already launched account and see what happens ( u gotta do this if u re running industry alts)


um .. do i get it right u actualy logg off the character.. land on the login page and then login to next toon ? .. if so then i dunno i just close the client and relaunch it for the next toon. seems lot faster even on my crappy laptop.

It looks like the recent (~10 minutes ago) update to the Beta launcher deleted all of the settings profiles I had made -- I only have the default one again now: https://imgur.com/Sw3FXOf

Did anyone experience a similar issue/find a workaround other than recreating them?
