I thiiiink I figured it out... I feel a bit stupid now.

Re-replaced the symlinks for libssl.so, libssl.so.1.0.0, libcrypto.so and libcrypto.so.1.0.0, and the launcher opens now and game runs fine now. I'm pretty sure it is the same issue on my desktop.

Moral of the story: Make sure to re-create symlinks whenever EvE updates, because they apparently get overwritten.

I'm stuck at 'Resource loading' spinning circle after logging in, tried all the wine choices from the client dropdown and still no luck. Everything was working fine pre-patch

Solved copying: libssl.so.1.0.2 and libcrypto.so.1.0.2 are in /usr/lib/x86_64linux-gnu/ into launcher folder and renaming them without version.


Thank you, worked a treat after doing this on Arch

Hello,

i have two questions.

1)
How can I specify the Install. Folder?

2)
After start the .sh i dont see the Launcher.
The copy from libssl . so. 1. 0. 2 and libcrypto . so. 1. 0. 2 only one week has helped.


I wish a nice day.

1> You can't, but you can specify where to put the resources files I think.
2> I pass on that one, I never ever got that kind of issue on Gentoo Linux.

Hi everyone,

Brand new to the game and only slightly less new to linux.

I've installed the launcher and everything has been working fine but I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction of how to create a shortcut for the launcher instead of having to bring it up in the terminal every time.

Currently running ubuntu 16.04

Thank you in advance.

Recently switched to Linux and trying to get back into the game.

Using Linux Mint 18.1 Cinnamon 64-bit.

I have several problems, I cant seem to get this to work.

I have the launcher extracted to an evelauncher folder in home directory. /Home/evelauncher/evelauncher.sh

Seems when I try to use chmod command it cannot find evelauncher.sh (file or directory not found)

Also when I try to use the terminal command it wont launch, goes on and on about not finding steam or local clients.

It does, however, launch directly from evelauncher.sh. The problem here is it goes right to trying to access the game (collecting data...). I don't have the game installed yet.

Am I supposed to install the game (windows version) first, then delete the old launcher then do this? Isn't the launcher supposed to install the game itself?

And what am I not doing right where Terminal command is not finding evelauncher.sh


I tried both Uniwiki's advice of u+x and a linux mint site suggesting +x,
~ $ chmod u+x evelauncher.sh
chmod: cannot access 'evelauncher.sh': No such file or directory
~ $ chmod +x evelauncher.sh
chmod: cannot access 'evelauncher.sh': No such file or directory


I did try using Crossweaver Crossover separately but it keeps failing due to Microsoft Script 5.7 missing. All I get is a blank green screen for the launcher. Tried installing the 5.7 script dependency and it just sits there spinning it's wheels.

That post has instructions on how to make a shortcut

There is no shame in not knowing, only in not wanting to know

I have a solution:

After install of
libssl1.0-dev
open the Launcher.

I must remove the
libssl-dev [1.1.0f-3 (now, stable)]
.
