Eve Launcher Profiles

Using the ISBoxer Eve Launcher and I make new game profiles.

What I'm trying to do is copy the cloned clients window setup using the core_user_* and the core_char_* dats. My problem is, I can't figure out where ISBoxer is storing the client settings to copy over the ones the launcher is using.

When I delete the files in %appdata%\Local\CCP\Eve\Tranquility and launch using the character set, it brings back all the files that were there, that I just deleted, and doesn't use the newly minted profile names. None of the settings-"Name" files match my currently selected profiles in the launcher. Now the files it is bringing back may not be the old ones I deleted, but its confusing my profile sorting all to hell and not even making folders for all of the character profiles that I added after I initially set this up as a dry run.

TL;DR: Where is ISBoxer bringing the old profile folders from when I keep deleting them and not making new ones instead?

EDIT 1: Adding to this, yes, I deleted all the old settings folders, launched a new complete character set with new profile names in place. Ingame, I select the proper characters and make sure they are loaded then I exit the game so it will make new settings folders. But it doesn't or I can't figure out where ISBoxer is saving them.

Re: Eve Launcher Profiles

It is the game that determines where those files are stored. ISBoxer just redirects them slightly to new names, although with EVE this also includes a folder redirect. IIRC the EVE settings files are stored in %AppData%\Local\CCP\EVE\c__program_files_(x86)_sharedcache_tq_tranquility, (some of this depends on where you installed EVE to), and the ISBoxer files should be in settings-CHARNAME folders.

Depending on your install you will also have a settings_Default folder which is used as the source settings for new settings groups defined in the EVE launcher, and you should have a settings folder too (depending on whether you changed or defined any settings groups in the EVE launcher). You may have others too. ISBoxer will create copies of the settings that the game loads, which if you are using the ISBoxer EVE Launcher rather than the standard EVE launcher, will probably be sourcing from the settings folder or the settings_Default folders.

If you have defined settings groups in the EVE launcher, and this is not being stored in a settings folder then ISBoxer probably wont use them.
