I currently have the anniversary edition installed and play on Live. Is there any way for me to install titanium to a new directory and play EQEmu from there? I have been tinkering with it with no success.

You have to add two seperate registry entries in order for it to work. I remember this from back when Kunark came out.

The guide should be on the official forums. Try searching there. :)

make your short cut to the Emu dirtory read like this

E:\EverQuest\eqgame.exe patchme

but with correct paths that u have. i dont know if this will fix your Prob but that makes it so it starts the game with out Patching just gotta make sure you have all your Server info correct.

The best way for you to do this is to uninstall Annv. Then install Titanium, copy and paste the whole directory to a new folder, and then on the old folder, patch up to LIVE. Now just create a new shortcut to eqgame in the old folder and your ready to go. EQ doesnt realy so much on reg keys as I have took a whole patched copy and backed it up to prevent from having to patch again after a windows reinstall, and it worked fine.

Techguy's description is exactly what I do. Clean install of Titanium, then back that whole thing up without touching it to a "Clean Client" dir. Then, I can copy one for EQEmuCLient, and one for Everquest (live) client. The Live one, I patch to live. And I never touch "Clean Client" unless I need to replace one of them.

The problem is, if you don't have Titanium at all... it's sorta moot. :)

What I did:

1. Rename main EverQuest folder to EverQuest2.
2. Uninstall EverQuest.
3. Reinstall EverQuest using Titanium disks.
4. Rename new EverQuest folder to EverQuestEMU.
5. Rename EverQuest2 back to EverQuest.
6. Create shortcut to EverQuestEMU with patchme command. ("C:\Program Files\Sony\EverQuestEMU\eqgame.exe" patchme)

And you're done. You have two working versions of EverQuest.
