Edited by: Jurietto on 29/09/2008 15:11:47 Okay, so this morning, I was playing fine. When I got home from work, I was playing fine. I was logged into my alt's account, set up some build orders, and while running that account, I thought 'What the hell, I'll log in my hauler and go move some minerals so I can pump out a few more runs.'
When I tried to start up another client and I was met with an error at the EVE spash screen:
Quote: Verification Faliure: Your EVE client installation may have been modified, damaged or corrupt files. Please re-install the game client Verification failed: "D:\Games\Eve-Online\bin\DirectX\dxnt.cab", crc:93b58ac9, expected:f6463be2
I find this to be a tad ridiculous, since I was still running the client fine that supposidly had the error.... so, since I was so close to DT, I ignored the error and I just logged off my alt.
After DT, I try to run a client, same error... I read a few threads here on the forums, googled the error, did all the possible work arounds...
I've scanned for viruses, nothing found. I removed the dxnt.cab and redownloaded that file from a several different sources. I've rebooted my PC. Closed all unnessecary files running just incase something was clashing. I've cleared my EVE cache. I've reinstalled DirectX.
With that being said, I've never tampered with the EVE folder so I can't comprehende what has gone wrong...
Anyone else experiencing the same problem? and if so, does anyone know how to fix this without requiring a full reinstall. Mainly because I am already capped at the moment on my internet and I'd have to redownload the client (1.2gig would take a few years).
Ta, - Juri |

I've run into this problem with a near constant rate. Every time after a patch and about every other week. I'm yet to find a fix other than reinstall. CCP needs to build a repair program for finding problems like this and DLing the files to fix it. Very ridicules to have to download over a gig of data because 20k of info is messed up.

Burn a DVD copy of the installation and put to the side for safe keeping if you don't have the disk space. Friends and myself have found when the client fails to work correctly, a full deletion/re-installation seems to fix a world of problems. Then again, I am still a 2month old noobie. :) |

Ta for your answers guys, I too had no other option but to re-download the new client today. I will keep this handy for future patches since its becoming such a big problem.
The fresh install fixed it all, only thing that seemed to fix it (no way around it).

Take the copy of your Eve client and copy the folder..
Then put this folder in a zip file and label it Eve client backup and stor eit in Documents.
You now dont ever have to re download when this problem happens again ( and it will ) . Just unzip..auto patch it ..and ur ready to go within minutes..
i use this method all the time but last week i think i found a cure for this disease...switch off computer...when u re boot Eve seems to run fine ( i think there is a problem with the cache files as i only started having this fault after i cleared all caches thru the escape button in game )
So by switching on and off it somehow re initialises teh cache folders and its good to go...try it anyway..

I can't be 100% sure, but you may want to run a virus scan, if files are getting corrupted upon execution, thats always a sign that you have a virus.
