This thread is outdated, these features will hopefully return to Sisi later this month.


Hi everyone, there is a new build up on Sisi. Here are some relevant blogs:

New CQ's:
http://www.eveonline.com/devblog.asp?a=blog&nbid=2427

New font:
http://www.eveonline.com/devblog.asp?a=blog&nbid=2401

Ship spinning:
http://www.eveonline.com/devblog.asp?a=blog&nbid=2402


This is a very early build so bear with us, there are a few issues we already know about and are working on:

Client thinks it can’t connect to server, displays ‘Unable to connect’ message
User Pain: Extreme
Workaround: Log in anyway.

Unable to scroll down in the EULA screen - no text shown
User Pain: Extreme
Workaround: Change the languageID in prefs.ini for the Sisi client to EN. Prefs.ini can be found in the appropriate settings folder for this client, more info is available here.

Ship hangar (as opposed to captains quarters) does not load up when docking straight into it
User Pain: High
Workaround: Go to the CQ first and then to the ship hangar.

The captains quarters environments are not loading on docking into a new station
User Pain: High
Workaround: Close client and log in again, in the next session the CQ environment should load as expected, if it doesn’t see next item below.

Certain environments are failing to load resulting in a black screen
User Pain: High
Workaround: There is no clear workaround at this time, in fact we are no longer able to reproduce this issue but if any of you do please file bug reports.

The Amarr Captain Quarters walkway entrance has missing collision on the stairs causing players to fall through the world
User Pain: High
Workaround: Wear shades like a boss, and don’t walk around the Amarr CQ.

Station services are not loading up when starting client in ship spinning
User Pain: Moderate
Workaround: Undock, dock again.

Intro video doesn’t play properly
User Pain: Moderate
Workaround: Skip the video by hitting any key, audio may continue playing anyway.

The Corporation and PI screen in the Gallente CQ are non-functional
User Pain: Low
Workaround: No workaround.

Unable to leave ship in hangar view
User Pain: Low
Workaround: No workaround, note that you can switch ships you just can't be in a pod.


For reporting other issues please file a bug report as per the instructions here.

Oh and there was a new mirror as well, and there is a mass test for Time Dilation planned for tomorrow, I'm sure CCP Habakuk posted about that somewhere.

Can't scroll down the EULA to accept it as no text shows up at all.

Ok.

First of all, I like the new font. It's much more readable than what's up on Tranquility right now.

Secondly, the Amarr quarters look nice. I'll check out the other two shortly, but I see no reason why I would be disappointed in them.

Thirdly, SHIP SPINNING. Nuff said.


One thing, though....did you absolutely have to butcher my character's body attributes. I'll definitely petition for another recustomization if this aspect goes up as is on Tranquility.

That's very odd, could you please file a report with some logs so we can find out what might be breaking for you? Same goes for anyone else that might run into this, we need to find out what the common factors are for these kinds of issues.

Looks like it wants to download the entire client, I can't tell you why. It's not due the size of the patch, should be a little over 1GB from current TQ build.

edit: thanks for the like, I totally need to start posting more Big smile

There are some instructions here. After getting some logs I would recommend giving the repair tool a go since there might just be some files missing from your client.

I'm currently running repair, it is repairing thus I'm guessing SisiLauncher didn't download/patch everything properly.

I'll update when done.

Also having trouble finding the spinning toggle.

When I turn off the CQs and dock, the station environment doesn't load but there is a switch to CQ button. In the CQ, there is no switch to hangar button.

Double-click on the holographic ship, either on your desk or in your hangar. That takes you back to ship spinning.

Anyone else noticing their character looking different compared to Tranquility?

I used SisiLauncher to update from previous build to current, and got that EULA issue.

Now I used the repair tool, then ran the game and got the update dialog download, downloaded it, and installed it from there and still got the same problem.

Title:
Stuck at EULA accept window, with no text and no scroll

Category:
UI

Server/Build:
Sisi/299262

Description:
There is no text in the EULA after installing the update thus no scroll bar.

Reproduction Steps:

Had previous build already installet

a)

1. Ran SisiLauncher, and Repaired my test client
2. Ran the client

b)

1. Used repair tool
2. Ran the client
3. Downloaded and installed update (966mb aprox)
4. Ran the client

Computer:
Intel i7 920
Realtek on-board sound
ATI HD5770 1gb (Notice I have right now ATI Catalyst 11.10 Preview due to Battlefield 3 Open Beta)
6GB RAM

quote :

Server/Build:
Sisi/299262

My current SISI client being displayed as 7.11.299358

Surely CCP not taking a step backwards

FYI 299358 also showing as an incompatible release - here goes, repair or new client download


I'll be back.......................Twisted

Yes my avatar has lost all his facial hair (beard and moustache), also his face is lighter and as I spin him around his hair changes from a sort of rusty, muddy colour on one side to dark, almost black on the other.

Another change is his trousers now have a pattern down the legs where they were plain black before.

SiSiLauncher fired it up nicely, about a gig patch.

Ship spin and better cyno/jump effects - good stuff.

New font is pretty dreadful though - given you've licensed Arial as a fallback font, I think you'd be better off just using that across the whole client as default.
