Wow.... fraking * symbols.. Had me slamming my head into the wall for months and having to use windows to get my fix. Thanks for making it clear to someone so bad at Eve

Well. now i Just get a black screen and it spamming An exception has occurred. It has been logged in the log server as exception #47
(increasing numbers)

edit: well, turns out its a python issue, python.dll error when I tried repair, and the log viewer thing said it tprint (or something) being called before implimented (not even close to exact wording, but whatever) . Not in mood to fiddle with it right now, but if someone knows how to fix it feel free

That is because you need to add separate overrides for the eve.exe and ExeFile.exe applications. Simply open the winecfg for your wine prefix (judging from your script, simply running winecfg is sufficient). Then on the Applications tabs at the bottom you click add application, browse for eve.exe. This adds that application to the list, then you select it (so it looks blue), go to the libraries tab and add the overrides *msvcr100,*msvcr90,*msvcr80 (just type msvcr100 and add a * in the front) and set them to native then builtin. Do the same for the ExeFile.exe, only set the overrides b,n.

Now you should be able to launch the game from the launcher if you change your script to the following
export LANG=en_US.UTF-8
export LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8
wine explorer /desktop=eve1,1280x800 "C:\Program Files\CCP\EVE\eve.exe"

You're not supposed to set the WINEDLLOVERRIDES anymore or else it will not work.
