This is a workaround for users with Windows XP 64bit who are unable to install the client update.
Please open the following folder by pressing Windows Key + R, and paste the following line in the run Window:
English Windows XP: %ALLUSERSPROFILE%\Application Data\CCP\EVE\ German Windows XP: %ALLUSERSPROFILE%\Anwendungsdaten\CCP\EVE\
Depending on the language of your Windows the GÇÿApplication DataGÇÖ folder might be localized, so you might need to change this folder name for the above to work. Under there you will find a folder that is named 'c_program_files_(x86)_ccp_eve_tranquility' (assuming you've installed EVE in the default location), open this folder.
Now download the following file:
http://content.eveonline.com/codePatch/305299/compiled.code
Place this file in the folder above, and rename it to 305299.code. Now you should have the update installed, so start the client normally and see if the update is still prompted for download. If not, then you've successfully installed the update. GM Xamother | Senior Game Master |

I've spent HRS downloading that full offline installer and did a clean install and now it wants to download UPDATE #3, it gets to about 40% and then says it's unable to install update. I haven't been able to log in for 2 days now, in fact, right after I renewed my sub for the month O_o. Am I only allowed 2 weeks out of a month's subscription to play???
Yes this should work in Windows XP 32 bit as well. The only difference is that the default folder is named ''c_program_files_ccp_eve_tranquility', instead of ''c_program_files_(x86)_ccp_eve_tranquility'. GM Xamother | Senior Game Master |

The file size is quite small, so I don't see using a download manager would make much difference.
Just to make sure, you renamed the file after you placed it in the folder, and the files size was about 5Mb?
Also what is the full path where you installed the EVE client or did you install it in the default folder? GM Xamother | Senior Game Master |

AkaiDruiD II wrote:I downloaded it again and this time it was 5mb and it worked...but... the client still restarts before character screen after logging in
I cannot say directly what could cause the client to restart, but please try resetting both cache & settings. Instructions on how to do this can be found here. Make sure to do both and not just the cache.
If this doesn't help, please file a petition under the Technical / Crash/Lock ups from here, and we will do everything we can to assist. GM Xamother | Senior Game Master |

No the server is not closing sockets. The socket closed error is usually given when the client has lost 5 packets (due to packetloss) in a row. GM Xamother | Senior Game Master |

If the actual patcher fails to download its thing, then this workaround for the client updates won't help much (as client updates are a bit different from the full patches that use the external patcher).
Try using the manual patch downloads here if the patcher downloaded via the game is not able to download the actual patch payload for some reason. Alternatively, the repair tool (repair.exe) in the EVE installation folder should also get you to the latest client version, albeit its download will be slightly larger.

That would have been due to the fact that 327069 is the version of todays client update (Crucible 1.0.2 Client Update #2, which I just updated the link to in the first post). The latest base client version which the client updates need to be applied to is 326279.
Seeing that you tried to get up to 327069 a few days ago already, it would look like you are actually trying to connect to the Singularity Testserver? GM Karidor | Senior Game Master |

It STILL wants to redload and reinstall an already installed, and working, patch... and the last time I said yes to that it FUBAR'ed my system HARD.
If it asks to download the update and installs it everytime you start the client, please make sure you're not starting the client in safe mode (/safemode switch in the shortcut), or it will try and install the update every time you start the client. GM Xamother | Senior Game Master |
