Patching to Live

[Johnnybones23]

I've recently installed titantium and followed the directions for EQemu setup. However after entering all the necessary info (eqhost, patchme steps) i double click on the shortcut i made and it goes directly to the global SOE patch server. Afterwards i check and my target box in the shortcut and it still has 'patchme' there; my eqhost file is fine (Host=eqemulator.net:5998). I cant even connect with EQemu! Help! thanks in advance!

First of all vista sucks heheh anyways:


make sure the shortcut discretely says:


"D:\Program Files\Sony\EverQuest\eqgame.exe" patchme



replacing the drive letter and/or path to yours.

As for your eqhost.txt, it should look like this:


[LoginServer]
Host=eqemulator.net:5998


Hopefully this helps you :-D

accident. i tried to edit the original and this website wouldn't save correctly the additional text i added (system specs). i looked for the delete post button...

That's ok - we also are not into OS bashing (this can get ugly), so we don't need to continue on that.

just a note folks, Vista will not let you save the modified eqhosts.txt unless you are running notepad as an administrator or you have user account control disabled. Good Luck
