EVE Launcher build 1385477 beta release for linux

Roesjka · September 24, 2018, 2:21pm

I have pinned my Login account name now in the launcher (getting lazy) so I don’t have to go through the seperate login window anymore.

Hi!
Solus (with Budgie) user here (in case it matters: using Nvidia Beta drivers 410.57 on a GTX 1050TI).
Downloaded the launcher build 1385477, unpacked it, started evelauncher.sh, and boom! It worked!
Logged in, started the game, seems to work fine.
Thanks a lot for putting work into this, it’s much appreciated.
Here’s the output from the shell: https://pastebin.com/raw/y28c7GfA

Edit: Output of “ldd ./evelauncher”: https://pastebin.com/raw/NVvuxeXK
Some of them say “not found”, but it doesn’t seem to matter.

Hi,

On Devuan under 4.15.0-3-amd64 and various versions of wine (3.0.2 and 3.16), the game client launches, but crashes during “processing data” message. LogLite acknowledges the crash and produces a dump file which it claims is uploaded, example dump ID is f3dd2be7-6f99-449c-a164-ca0e12276055.dmp. I can produce the dump file if you like.

Have you checked the Shared Cache? If not give it a try. It seems, some files in your cache are broken.

Nathan_Durr · September 26, 2018, 7:33am

Thank you for the tip, I wiped all the client directories and started from scratch - works perfectly now.

Tip for everyone else: once you start the launcher, do not interrupt it until it finishes downloading, even though you’d think it makes sense to restart it when you change from release to beta and set a custom wine path.

Nathan_Durr · September 26, 2018, 8:33am

Another side note: if you use a tiling window manager like i3 you should probably switch to windowed mode, otherwise it’ll fail to switch windows and grab mouse focus.

Flar · September 26, 2018, 8:03pm

I looked at a lot of errors and I can tell I’m not having problems with graphics, but I think this is QT related?

Can some1 confirm this is QT thats not working for me, or is it steam?
Do I need to buy EVE on steam to use this scrips correctly?

When I launched the shell script fhe first time I saw the launcher and it started updating but then closed right after. now I don’ẗ get to see it when I run the script (only after first extract).

Gharim_Turen · September 26, 2018, 8:19pm

I dont understand, wat your problem is. Evelauncher works by me and many others with this errormessages. CCP_Bartender has in his first post in this thread mentioned, that this happens and how you prevent that.

Flar · September 26, 2018, 8:21pm

me?

update, I tried making a new extract and ran the script, when the dialogue box popped up if I want to update the launcher I clicked cancel and now the launcher begins to download files:

So don’t click OK or you will mess up the install!

I think its what he means with “attempt to downgrade”?

OK so you have 12 seconds to respond! be quick or be dead!

Gharim_Turen · September 26, 2018, 8:23pm

have you read this?

Flar · September 26, 2018, 8:24pm

NO HAHA

Nathan_Durr · September 28, 2018, 3:40pm

Ok, after several days of testing, I can confirm it works flawlessly on Devuan (wine 3.16) and Ubuntu 16.04 (wine built in)

Niria_Omastasi · September 28, 2018, 5:48pm

I give it some runs in the last days. After throwing out all “xcb”-stuff and configure wine to be win10 (xaudio2_7 error) it runs smoothly on Arch-Linux.

Gharim_Turen · September 28, 2018, 8:05pm

Maybe are this from interest for you Optimized AUR Package

Update: Minor changes on libs and startup made today.

carboneater · September 29, 2018, 7:43pm

Debian buster/sid
wine 3.0.2

Had to throw out all the new XCB libs (I already used to flush all supplied XCB libs and use my system’s)

Because I’m using KDE, there used to be a conflict with Qt lib versions. As both EVE and my system are using 5.11 that’s not an issue for now, but I used to flush the evelauncher.sh script and symlink my system’s Qt to evelauncher. (Launch command is ./evelauncher from the evelauncher directory)

I guess that last ones happens because I launch evelauncher using my system’s libs, but I had to symlink libprotobuf.so* to /usr/local/lib/

The latest launcher looks like its working with all these fixes…

Katrina_Bekers · October 1, 2018, 9:05pm

I’ll try to set LD_PRELOAD on another custom script - I already use one to bridge from Steam to the launcher…

And I knew about the GL thread optimizations being active in recent drivers. Only found funny I cannot set those shell variables anymore or else the QT GUI won’t be built.

Elassus_Herron · October 3, 2018, 1:27pm

I ran into a weird problem today using the (non-beta) old launcher build: I saw only a button with “Log In.” When I clicked that, a new window popped up with the SSO page. I logged in, gave my 2fa, and then that window just went blank and I got nothing.
When I switched to the beta launcher (and thus this build in the OP), going through the SSO page worked as before. I had to re-add all my accounts, but otherwise it appears to be working.

CCP Bartender, thanks so much for working on this. I know we’re a niche community, but I really appreciate it. o7

CCP_Bartender · October 3, 2018, 2:25pm

@Roesjka I built them because those are the versions we use for our proto objects in the launcher. Rolling them back would mean making a lot of changes to the windows and mac build process, so it’s not on the cards, we have to use a modern libproto and libgrpc.

CCP_Bartender · October 3, 2018, 3:25pm

Just bumped 1385477 to release. 122 seems to be causing more people problems than providing solutions.

Flar · October 3, 2018, 4:42pm

much better now, it has stopped nagging about downgrade

did a fresh extract and moved the folder, I can start the game now and manipulate UI elements, but when I turn the camera or otherwise click in the gameworld it closes instantly.

Very strange. Currently trying the “download everything” option, 9GB to go
Still nothing. I can pilot the ship with the keyboard, but if I click with the mouse the game closes.

Ubuntu 18.04 64-bit with KDE Plasma 5.12.6
