Game freezes when I select a server (RoF)
I am having the same problem a couple others are.
I just downloaded RoF via Steam. I followed the instructions (changed host, added patchme to properties, etc). I log in fine, see the list of Emu servers, but the second I click one, my screen goes black and freezes.
Anyone know why this could be happening?
Servers I have tried to log into: Stormhaven, EZ Server.

I ran it.
Still freezing when I select a server.
I downloaded the Steam game, change host path as instructed, added patchme as instructed, thats all I need to do as a former EQemu user, right? Since I have the accounts and whatnot. |

as far as i'm aware, yes.
i'm assuming you're able to log on with an older client, right?

I have not tried older clients as I bought a new computer since playing on EQemu and installed RoF just now. But other posts I am reading with similar issues (locking up when you click a server) have not had luck with older clients. And these servers are RoF compatible so something is wrong on my end, I don't know. |

What is the correct version? I've been playing retail EQ for a year now. Getting Started guide doesn't mention what directX is needed. |

it's not in the guide because it's not really an emulator requirement. it's an everquest installation requirement.

I have directx11 according to my dxdiag, I am pretty sure this has nothing to do with my issue of freezing at server select.
Guess ill download an older version over night since I dont know what else to do.

DX11 is integrated with WIndows 7.. I am not sure wtf you are talking about. It can't even be deleted. Ive been playing EQ this whole time using DX11. I cant install 9.0c because my version is newer. If you have anything to help then please do but you really aren't by facepalming. You're just wasting my time. |
