EVE Online Launcher update 1.11 has been released on Friday, March 16, 2012, at 14:30 UTC. This update resolves a number of issues the players were experiencing while patching the game. Full patch notes can be found at the bottom of the Crucible 1.5 patch notes.

Please note that we are hoping to release an additional update to the Mac version of the launcher next week.

As of 01:40 GMT (14th March) we released a new Launcher (Version 1.09) and a new repair tool to resolve some issues that players have been experiencing during the initial deployment of Crucible 1.5.

Those of you experiencing issues with the Launcher or updating the game, please follow these steps:

1. Reboot the computer.
2. Navigate to the EVE client install folder.
3. Run the Repair tool until it finshes.
4. Run eve.exe from the same folder

We ask people to reboot their computer to make sure that there are no locked files or other processes running while running the repair tool. This would otherwise interfere with the repair tool and prevent the client from updating.

If you have problems due to corrupted downloaded data, please consult this forum thread for a workaround.
