@Michael Bone :

Thank you very much for providing such a tool. After login with the launcher once to check the "Don't ask again" box for my accounts regarding the character name Challenge, I was able to create without any problems the shortcuts needed for my accounts

While I am not an expert in Powershell I was able to read and understand your script, checking it 3 times to see if there was anything suspicious. Since your remote calls are only to eveonline.com, I believe I may be relatively safe

Your script rox :D

Here is a small example on how it looks on my start screen : http://eve.laby.fr/lnk.png

Each tile puts me directly in the character selection. Extremely convenient and quite pleasing visually :)

Thanks! Yes, believe me - the ISD or CCP Dev who have commented would most definitely nailed this if it was malicious.

That's a slick screenshot ;)

EDIT:
The character name challenge is tripping up a lot of people - I've gotten a bunch of mails about it. I am currently working on adding a key to eli.ini (CharChallenge=Michael Bone) that will automatically supply the correct character name for that account. If you are interested in helping me test this, please post here or evemail me.

(I'll need help with that particular issue because EVE appears to be finicky and I'll have to visit a different coffee shop around my town to test after each change otherwise XD)

I still have problems with line 226 in RC2.

Seems to be stuck at:
$token=$substr.substring($substr.indexof("access_token=")+13, 87). InvalidOperation: (:) [], RuntimeException. I tried adjusting the variables there but cannot get it to work.

EVE returns: "The authentication token provided by the launcher is of an invalid format. Please try again or contact EVE customer support."

Running Win 8.1.

An error there means that it successfully sent something to the server and the server rejected it. There are two possible issues: 1) you entered your login information incorrectly, or 2) it is trying to character name challenge you. Check with the official eve launcher and enter your character name.

Sorry I haven't gotten back to you earlier Michael,

I'll gladly help you test out the character name challenge key, since the script is giving me that issue (despite the launcher not giving it to me when i try to log in there)

I kind of thought about that and launched the game with the launcher beforehand. Unfortunately it did not namechallange me. I'll update if/when I find something that might be the issue.

I think it might be rights and/or not finding eli.ini in the correct locations, even after just filling in the credentials. Eli.ini was created though within the same folder.

Hi,

in the launcher you can choose not to be name challenged again. I noticed that If you tick that checkbox, the launcher won't name challenge you again, but when using the auto login script it will now always challenge you (making it useless for the account you disabled the name challenge in the launcher for).
Perhaps knowing this helps?

That's interesting. I checked the [ ] Never Ask Again box and it has never asked again from the two IPs I commonly log in from, on any of my accounts.

Where is this checkbox? Somehow even resetting the launcher options it still remembers.

Tested RC2 but am getting the following login error:

The authentication token provided by the launcher is of an invalid format. Please try again or contact EVE customer support.

Edit: Both the username and password are correct and I'm not getting a character name challenge in the official launcher.

Edit 2: Figured out what went wrong by looking at the script's settings ini. The script saved my account name as all lower-case, all I did was manually add the capital letters back in.

Eve usernames aren't case sensitive. you must have done something else that fixed it - most likely the character challenge.

Did anything change with the token auth? It fails when authenticating with the Eve login server. :(
