I still cannot make it passed the login screen. I get "Error- Time out" every time. I have the port setting to 5994 and there are no spaces in the folder. It is set to Read Only so it isnt changing everytime I run EQ. I have all the updates, but have not downloaded Omens of War. I do not understand the MiniLogin or its purpose, but it seems like I dont need it. I have deleted eqmain.dll and let the patch redownload it but it still times out. Any suggestions?

unzip this in your eq folder.

That makes it just stay at "Logging into the server- please wait."
If i take the
[LoginServer]
Host=newlogin1.eqemulator.net:5994 like that It stays Logging in but if i do it like this:
[LoginServer]Host=newlogin1.eqemulator.net:5994 I get an almost imediate time out.
Now when I use the scopr2k patch I can play on that server just fine, so I let the patcher download the original files over 2k ones and attempted to try to connect to the others, since I want semi-legit, but it won't work still.

I am repatched to EQ and with the eqhost either way it leaves me stuck at login or timing out. I have just finished a filecheck too.
