Hello spacefriends, it's time for another Community Beat!

Now, let's look at some of the cool things that are going on across the community...

Attention Vanguard, 

The battlefield is calling once more, and your service is required. Preparations for the First Strike February Playtest have begun, and seven days from now legions of Vanguard will go boots-on-the-ground for the third time, doing the Deathless’ bidding, earning amazing rewards, and contributing to corruption in New Eden. The playtest will run from 22-26 February and is open to all Omega players. 

PREPARE FOR DEPLOYMENT 

On 22 February, the doors to the battlefield will open for the next First Strike Playtest, and Omega warclones will once again take up arms and fight for glory and chaos. In addition to proving your loyalty to the Deathless by completing contracts and impacting the level of corruption in New Eden, you will have the opportunity to earn fantastic rewards by proving your mettle on the frontlines.

Just to confirm, the issues you’re encountering (screenshot) are on the MacBook Air M1?
Does the issue persist if you uninstall via Steam and re-install the game?


There are several Linux users, that participated in the early beta, and can be found both in the Linux section of the forums and in the official EVE Online Discord. They may be able to provide you with some guidance regarding getting the launcher/game running under those environments.

Thanks for the feedback. I would like to point out that both are searchable fields :slight_smile:

If you know what you’re looking for (i.e. user / character name for launch groups), you can start typing as soon as you’ve selected the field to narrow down the options.

When making launch groups, if you’re wanting it to start up characters, you don’t have to start by picking the username, you can go directly to picking a character, and it will auto-fill the user for it as well.

Comment

When prompted, just confirm the directory, then click install.

For users with the old launcher default directory it should show as C:/EVE/SharedCache

Comment

If you’ve partaken in the beta previously, check if you have the “Download the full client” option enabled in the settings, you can then disable it and restart the launcher to prevent it from downloading the full game client.

If the [install] button is clicked when prompted without changing the directory, it will use the previous install directory, then check for any updates and apply them if necessary. If you change the directory that was suggested, it may result in a new instance of the client being downloaded & installed.

Note: 33+GB is the expected size for a full game client, which if you don’t let the launcher download, the client will download it for you while playing. The old launcher was not transparent about this expected requirement for a full game client.

Comment

CTRL+F (MacOS ⌘+F) → Search for characters | Search for account

The relevant account/character will be selected in the list. You can also opt for directly starting characters/accounts from the search.

Comment

Did you change the location of the client installation, when prompted by the new launcher? Or did you immediately click [Install]?

If the latter, and you’re not seeing the profiles in the drop-down to apply them per account, you may…

  • Open the Settings (cog icon top right)
  • Select Tools / Cache
  • Click on the Look for Profiles button

This should populate your dropdowns with profiles that have previously been used when starting clients.

Yes we have!

It will suggest the location where it believes the existing installation is.

If that is where you client files have been installed before, just click the blue install button and it should continue on without re-downloading the entire client. :slight_smile:

If you’re uncertain, open that path in Windows Explorer, and if you see a ResFiles directory, then you’re good! :slight_smile:
