Try this. Goto eve\bin folder. YES it is eve\bin folder.
locate evefile.exe and double click it.

no more patches which doesn't work. Maybe CCP will sort that once its proven working at later.



Dude your a genious, patched and back up and running in less than 5 minutes.


Since 5 years I always call directly the exefile.
Start "eve" d:\Games\EVE\bin\ExeFile.exe /nosplash /noconsole

*actually I use some more parameters in the end, but that is not for the normal users*
No spash screen in the beginning, and now NO launcher.. Basically the launcher does exactly the same. So why to bother with it? Cool

You're being completely unreasonable. No one expects a software company to write working software.

I am running a Mac. Eve Client downloaded the launcher patch. Launcher installer ran and promptly crashed. Now I have a completely useless EVE installation.

CCP fix my problem now!


try downloading the launcher installer and running it again on your Eve client -> link




I have had similar problems as Ke'Daar and a few other mac users. I followed the link and it d/l'd fine. But when I open it and try to patch my client I get an error message that says,


Invalid Application

/Applications/EVE Online.app is not a valid EVE Online client, please try again


When I logged this morning, the patch d/l worked. The client closed to install the launcher patch and then froze completely. Had to force quit the installer program. Now my client is broken and I get a resulting error message when I try and launch it. I have looked in the Mac forums to find there is not much help on the problem we Mac users are having. Currently re-downloading the client from the server to see if I can at least get a client that will allow me to even launch and reconnect to try and get the patch to work again.

Please let us Mac users know what to do.

Why is it that I have a short skill queue every time there's a patch explosion?

Patch keeps failing

how do we get the launcher v1.05?


You can run the Launcher shortcut with /forceupdate flag. That said, there are some permissions issues in the wild with 1.05, so this may not fix things. The definitive fallback should be the Repair Tool.

We play EVE for the hardship. It's a shame a significant amount of that hardship comes directly from CCP.


I use WINE in Ubuntu linux.

The patching seemed to work ok. I then hit PLAY on the launcher window and a few seconds later I get a runtime error on /EVE\bin\EVE.exe. I tried running the repair.exe (6.0MB) downloaded from the linked earlier in one of these threads by a dev. It did not help.

As a linux user I expect more problems than others but this is widespread. I don't have the moral to try anything further today.

Having these situations occur often enough will drive even the most veteran player from EVE. Really CCP.... I know you can do better.

Just tried running the launcher again, updated and patched succesfully.
Don't know what happened, I didn't change anything except closing Chrome.

Some clients seem to be getting permission errors when the Launcher is trying to update a file that the client uses. This has to do with the privileges on the Launcher. We are working on an update for the Launcher that we will deliver as soon as possible.

In the meantime, we suggest you try running the "Eve Online Launcher" shortcut as administrator (through right-click). If that doesn't work, try to use repair.exe to update your client.


Dear Dev

Just followed your suggestion and both the shortcut and the repair.exe still didn't work and popped the same message, apparently these files (launcher.exe and repair.exe) wont be able to patch other files in the same directory while their processes are active.

Are you running multiple installs from the same directory?

No, not running multiple installs. In the game directory i have the "EVE Online Launcher.exe" shortcut and the "repair.exe" file, i turned the "Run as Administrator" option on, both of them still pop this message when executed: "The EVE Online launcher cannot update a directory from which processes are running. Please close the following process: launcher.exe (when i run repair: repair.exe)

TEMPORARY QUICK SOLUTION TO GET EVE RUNNING

as i said. forget about the whole story of new launcher and the default eve icon. just goto the eve\bin folder and double click on the evefile.exe!!!

The NEW launcher still doesn't patch properly with exception error at 4/7 and Repair does NOT work either.

Hi

It took me almost 2h to update the client with new launcher. It was not caused by slow computer, disk, cache or internet connection.



Dito here. i'm downloading right now and it is taking ages. Or is the patch huge? I can't tell because it is not showing how much Mb's it is downloading on the launcher.

No error messages yet though, at least thats something :>

The launcher installed fine on my 2 PC's (Windows 7 & XP), but there was an issue installing it on my laptop (Vista).

Towards the end of the initial download process, it threw up the message "error creating shortcut". The installation continued and completed. The game does load through the launcher, but I cannot get into the settings menu to close the launcher down etc.


Any ideas ?
