Now that’s is out of the way, @Arkena007 to the best of my knowledge, back when FC was CCP, they never did “support Linux OS”.

CCP Snorlax would say otherwise.

The John Rochard account was a Steam originally, all you do is log into the main Eve Online webpage and manage your account. In there when you ask it to change your password, it knows you are on Steam and sets your Steam account up with a user ID.

Please do not bend the knee to this. All this does i make it so there are two identities that can log into your account, one via the steam auth and one with a username/password combo. I get that there is a 2FA on most accounts, but few would say its prudent to double your attack surface by creating another credential to log into the same account.

Microsoft and Windows are the gold standard.

Not is is not. Its just the VHS vs Betamax war all over.

@Arkena007

It doesn’t let me in the game on Steam. I get to the Eve Launcher click Play and nothing. I’ve only been able to get in the actual game with Heroic Launcher.

Which linux? These instructions I wrote in 2024 are largely still accurate for most linux’s Pop_OS! & EVE Online

I live paycheck to paycheck.

God Bless America.

I’d seen a video on Youtube mentioning that CCP ended Linux support back in 2009, and that at one time it did run natively on Linux but CCP sees a much smaller userbase with Linux.

Not quite, CCP had a guy who made a launcher wrapper that made a WINE environment that worked quite well until support was dropped.
