Mac Singularity Patch is not applied workaround

Hi

I saw a post here recently were some people had the same problem as me, but I could not find the thread anymore
Changing the info.plist and the config.ini files to connect to Sisi works, but then when you start the client it downloads a patch (approx. 17MB) and then says "The patch has been downloaded, the Client will now restart and the patch will be applied". Then the Client closes if you click on "ok" or "close" (you cannot click anything else). When the client closes nothing of the likes of "the patch will be applied" happens at all. If you start the Sisi client again, it will start but the message "The patch has been downloaded, the Client will now restart and the patch will be applied" will be shown again and you cannot do anything.

So here is where it gets interesting:

go to

/Users/yourUsername/Library/Application Support/Your preferences folder for your Sisi Client/p_drive/Local Settings/Application Data/CCP/EVE/c_program_files_ccp_eve_87.237.38.50/cache

there should be a file called: evepremiumpatch351370-mac.tgz
click that and it will create : evepremiumpatch351370-mac.app
That file you can run, you can then select the client installation that you want the patch to be applied to, obviously chose your Sisi client, it will then start the launcher and patch the Sisi client
(it crashed at 25% for me the first time, I just tried it again and it worked
After this my Sisi client started working
(note that you might have to change the info.plist again, I had not to but you never know)

I hope this helps someone.
