Ummm, wrong forum bud. :)

hmm i didnt patch it and i did everything u said to do...it still says please run everquest. i probably dont have the right version so im probably goin to end up waiting for the stuff to come out....i just really want to play again.

Are you using eqgame.exe with patchme, not EverQuest.exe? Search the forums or look in the stickies, I'm sure your problem has already been discused and fixes posted. Otherwise, yes your version is probably incompatible with the Emu.

This is in the wrong forum. Please post in the right forum for help on this in the future.

The problem you are having is becuase you did NOT create the shortcut properly.
delete the shortcut on your desktop to eqgame.exe
open up windows explorer
find the file eqgame.exe in your backup directory (ie.. EqEmu)
right click on it
choose sendto>>dekstop/create shortcut
close everything out
right click on the new shortcut to eqgame.exe
choose properties
to the line under "target" add a space and then the word patchme (without quotes)
click apply
click ok
now double click on the shortcut and you are there..
Enjoy!

ok i do this before or after updating?

god you guys are soooo funny.. :/

Arg I patched. How do I do a system restore? do i need a special program?

Everytime I go to log onto the server it says error 1017

ACK! i patched!

Luckly... (hero music) Dell Backup comp to the rescue!

I have all my old EQ files on my dell. =P

Something that really sucks, I needed to do a Windows XP File Repair cause dude to some websites I been working with. I have been having problems viewing them and also other sites which sucks. Well that is the the worse of it yet.

As I run the Windows XP Pro CD to do the file repair it run fine and good however, when it get to the part that say 39min remaining under windows installation. It say stock there and dosen't move at all. Not even the Hard Drive light come up. LOL! I say to my self oh :evil: &%*$(#!!!! So, I try a few times and nothing happens. Same old thing so, that leave me with no choise but to re-install Windows XP Pro back again all Fresh. LOL! The Good thing is that my system run faster now. The bad thing is that, I lost everything. Meaning ( EQ Dir with the patch from before Feb 10th, and everything else inside there) Alone with my Valentine Project that I was making for my girlfriend which I will have to pull a fast one here and see if I can remake it or come up with something fast. :?


So, I guess saving your files into back ups are very importan as I save my importan backups but not my EQ Dir and My lastest projects. Bah! :roll:

Hehehe, What a Valentine Holiday for me. Hope things will turn out good. As I know I will not be able to install EQ and run EQEmu for a while until is compatible with GoD.

What if?
 

What should i do if i patched and downloaded the new GoD stuff? how can i play Eqemu again?

Wait till EQEmu catches up. Dont bother asking when that will be, unless you want to be beaten with a metal pipe.

A metal pipe....that it? more like a metal spiked pipe. :)

Well I was trying not to be too mean. But yes, your idea sounds like more fun. :twisted:

EQpatch
