Just curious, for those of us who run our own servers and play solo offline. Is there any interest/ability to make an exe that runs all of the emulator/server code and the eq client in one swoop? It would be cool to have it all running together in one click to make it feel like you were just running it right from the game and not hacking it to play the game you want.

I have made such a beast. I intend to have a built in config file display/editor as well. It is a very old tool I made but works with 2068 since that is what I have running on mine now.

It was one of my first things I made in C# so it likely could be improved on. But it works. It misses some text output from the servers so for debugging its probably not the best. But for end use it should be ok.

This still requires all the emu exe files to be in the folder this is in, but you won't have to access them manually. I just setup the server then use this exe once I have a working server.

Also this one for the client launch. I didn't put them together as I run my server off a separate network system.

Again, was made about the same time. So I personally consider that it can and should be cleaned up. But it works.
