EQEMu New Account Registration Method
 

We are slowly moving to the new login server system.. therefore we have coded a new method of registering new accounts for use with the servers....

1. First you must edit your eqhost.txt to contain

[LoginServer]
Host=eqemulator.net:5995

2. Then download this file and put in your EverQuest folder [ Overwrite the current one ]

http://www.eqemulator.net/eqlsClient.ini

3. Load up EverQuest via the "patchme" method.

4. Click on New Account... let the page load...

The information that is needed is obvious...
You can get your Account Key.. by logging into the forums.. clicking on "Profile" and you can grab your key to use there...


If you do not want to edit your eqlsClient.ini file the link to the registration is

http://www.eqemulator.net/eqaccount.php

have fun.. if you have any problems.. pm me or something

It works great. :D

you expected differently? :/

/me flexes

haha, awesome job getting this working khuong!

Any way to undo?
 

I was an idiot and saved the eqlsClient file without saving the older one. I can't even connect... Does anyone have the code for the eqlsClient file for live? I would really appreciate that, as well as the eqhost file...
ty =)

Thats why you make two folders :-/

[/code]

Hmm... I created account and all, but when I type name and PW then hit login, I crash to desktop. =\

Any suggestions?

i could use some of them suggestions as well i keep crashing to desktop after i try to type my name and PW

That was happening to me as well.

What worked for me was taking the eqhost.txt file deleting everything except the

[LoginServer]
Host=eqemulator.net:5995

and making it read only.

I went in and made it read only and still I crash to desk top. =\

Same here, crashing to desktop when attempting to login.... *sigh* just when I thought I was finally going to get tp play too....

Okay, I'm kinda proud of myself for figuring this one out xP
Go into the eqhost.txt and delete everything like the other guy said... Even the empty spaces after each line.... and make it read only. Yay! :lol:

/sigh... Still crashing. =\

errg, sowie about that.... delete everything EXCEPT
[LoginServer]
Host=eqemulator.net:5995
of course xP

deleted everything then replaced it w/
[LoginServer]
Host=eqemulator.net:5995

and im sitll crashing while im trying to log on any other ideas? running XP if that helps

A working eqhost.txt can be found at

http://www.eqemulator.net/eqhost.txt

right click and Save As to your eqemu folder.

None
 

I belive this might work...

1. Go to you host file
2. Type in this.............

[LoginServer]
Host=eqemulator.net:5995

[LoginServer]
Host=eqemulator.net:5995

(Yes, twice...works great for me...dont know how tho)

Then try to log on and see if it will work. The only down side is there is only a few servers that run off the latest patch...Have fun.

C.R.E.A.M :?

Well, putting it in twice helped somewhat. I was able to get to character select screen to make a toon. But when I try to log into world I crash to desktop.

Seem to be getting closer at least.

hey Realmhunter i think you live at my house and useing my computer.....same thing happening to me.....:P keep it up guys yall may save our eqemu withdraws yet :)

I have several EQ folders. So I can still play on the DR.3s but would like to try the DR.4s. =\

I was having the same problem, but all i had to do to fix it was download the eqlive eqhosts.txt and replace only the url. I'm not sure if there's some kind of special character that cant be seen in a text editor or what, but that worked for me.

So all you do is open the existing eqlive eqhosts.txt and replace the sony link with eqemulator.net:5995

Hope this helps some people out

Hah. This is a wonderful thing you've done. Wonderful. *loves*

Thank you, I am the inventor, I started EQEMu and I am a c++ master! ... ok maybe not really, but I agree with you buddy, this is a wonderful thing! SOE likes to fuck it up alot so put on your seatbelt, it's alot of work for the players as well as the developers, expecially the server operators.

uhhhh
 

sry but i realy dont get what were supose to do on step 2 :?:

sry
 

ok i figured it out sry for bein an idiot

Was wondering if you get the patch that had the new tutorial that lasted till level 5 would that fudge up playing on Dr.4s.

I am starting to think that is the case. I am patched up to just before the June 2nd patch. Guess I will wait and find out. =\

I cant get past login
 

I can't get past login. I keep getting this

Error 1010: No Host Was Found
Check that the file EQHOST.TXT exists in
the EverQuest directory.

I've tried everything I can think of, and I'm really out of ideas. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

i have my eqhost read-only and

[LoginServer]
Host=eqlplogin1.eqemulator.net:5995

inside of it. i have patched all the way to today, 6/04. im unable to get onto most servers that are even [0.5.7-DR4]. i dont get crashed to desktop but back to login. i was able to login to one [0.5.7-DR4] server, make a char, and enter the world. but after a couple seconds the game froze and i received an error message asking me if i would send the zone, char information to developers.

edit:
everything seems to be working fine right now. i can connect to the dr4 servers normally

i am a computer idiot and i also dont really understand what to do...

I changed the client and eqhost file and then when i start up EMU and do account>new account it brings me to the registration site...

I fill out all of my information, email, number, username, password etc...but then it says that one is already in use...obviously...Must i create a new username and just keep the email...etc? cuz im not sure how to register this thing...kinda gettin me annoyed...

what do you mean by one? are you talking about the username being taken? if it is saying that about the username, then yes you have to use a different username, but you don't have to change the email address

Whenever I try to log in with my newly created halfling and try to enter rivervale...it says "The zone is unavailable". What's causing this/what should I do?!

that means that the server owners havent added that zone to their database yet. the only thing to do is find a character race thats home zone is supported (most likely humans in west freeport) by the server or try a different server if you really want to play a halfling

Well i fixed the login problem lol...had been using the wrong email...whoops...*shrugs*

Only problem now is im crashing...I change eqhost to the right thing...then i delete the eqclient (text) and paste the new one onto it...i run emu and when it starts i get to the login screen...type in my password and hit login...it turns gray for about 20 seconds and then it crashes to my desktop...from time to time itll say eqgame has encountered a problem and needs to close...any ideas

Thank you very much..worked perfectly:)

well with some difficulty (everytime eq patches (cant stop it fer some reason) repatches over my eqhost...) i can get to the server selection screen and then i just get a timeout if i try to join a server can anyone tell me why&how to fix it?

To stop EQ from patching over your eqhost.txt you need to make sure your shortcut points to eqgame.exe and make your eqhost.txt read only.

just making sure
 

ok i did this.. replaced everything as it said "after runing live patch" it crashes on me soon as i put username and pass in.. so i tried old files.. it says no host found.. have deleted the *spaces* after the code in eqhost.txt , and still crashes.. if i do use old eqgame.exe and eqmain.dll it will let me log in pick a server but then client crashes after it has loaded.. (gave friend same eqgame.exe and eqmain.dll and it worked for him) why am i haveing so much trouble with this thing? lol.. any help would be appreciated :!: :!: :!: :!: :!: :!: :!: :!: :!:

erm ok does EQ Emu work on euro version? evry time i try the new login method i get hosts not found check my eqhost.txt and ive tried almost everything but in the old login mehtod i get a list of servers but i cant connect to any.

For the Euro servers you still have to connect to the new login server info, but you have to use the old eqhost.txt format. Theres several tutorials that show how to do this if you use the search button.
