Perhaps through the properties on a shortcut we can input certain parameters into the "target" box to make it the correct resolution? If not, I'm stumped, and we will have to wait for CCP to fix this one.

Vyctor Wulf - speaks the truth, the option of opening EvE in safe mode and changingthe graphics setting to full screen restores the game to its former glory..



Um, no actually. I get the exact same problem in safe mode.
THIS IS IRONY AT IT'S FINEST. Confused

I also instaleld the optional patch and now EvE wont load.
Double click the short cut, opening splash apepars for a few seconds, then in minimises to the taskbar and refuses to expand.

I am using Vista 32bit, Premium Graphics at full screen.

Will try some of the fixes above, but why the hell should we have to.

Poor quality control again.

(I also suffered at the hands of the boot.ini fiasco and had to totally restore my hard drive, I lost so much I used the oportunity to upgrade to my current computer)

If any of the suggestions work I will post here.

just /signing the list of users running Vista64 that are broken after today's optional patch...

however, selecting the EVE minimized process and pressing alt-enter brought the login back fullscreen.

I have the same problem. Initially restarting my computer worked, and then stopped working. Then alt enter on the splash screen worked, but it stoped working. Now I have tried running eve as an administrator and it deleted my settings.

(This is under Vista, btw)

I usually launch EVE via a shortcut. I'd created a new shortcut exactly the same way as before after the patch, but the game wouldn't start. If I go to shortcut properties, Shortcut tab, and click "Advanced..." then set it to run as administrator, the game now launches ok.

I've no idea whether the shortcuts were previously created to run as administrator (although I did nothing myself to make that happen) or whether previous client versions just didn't care. Either way, it works now.

Good luck the rest of you.

When I launch the game, I get the first splash screen pop up which then minimizes to the start bar.

Clicking on the eve icon in the start bar does nothing. If I try the alt + enter trick it causes a windows error as the program crashes.

Previously I was able to get around this by deleting the contents of the cache folder before launching the game. This would let me into Eve but would only work once before I would have to delete the cache again....

Now I can't get in at all!

Meh....

I got it working by going to my eve settings and deleting everything but PC.dat and Prefs.ini (back up this directory first, PC.dat contains your suppress window's stuff, e.g. when jumping into low sec, engaging in pvp for first time)

For vista: C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local\CCP\EVE\c_ccp_eve_tranquility\settings

For XP:C:\Documents and settings\USERNAME\Application Data\CCP\EVE\c_ccp_eve_tranquility\settings

Start the eve client, click settings and run in windowed mode, Voila :)

Plz fix CCP!

Same problem here.

I started EVE, got the splash screen, then the login screen where the patch notification box came up. Installed the patch, restarted and now it just displays the splashscreen for a while then quits.

I've restarted the comp, deleted the EVE cache, and even made sure I have arialuni.ttf installed, as mentioned in the blackscreen thread (I know they're describing a slightly different problem!). Still no joy...

Any help very much appreciated
