another newbie with another easy question... :~D
 

:P hey everyone! heard about the new release of 0.5.0! and wanted to give it a shot. Ive been away from playing everquest for awhile ( quit shorly after SoV ) but in the past ive used one of the older compilations of the Emulator and even had this working back when hackersquest.gomp.ch was starting up and fooled around then. however im somewhat lost as to how to get started again.
Ive read the readme's and have everything going good. my only real problem is i dont have my original EQ CD. however ive got my velious cd is there a way i can get the eqgame.exe file from patching or download the original game files needed from an outside source?
Any help would be greatly appreciated, and on my behalf i'd like to say thanks and grats for as getting as far as the devs and all thier support has gotten thus far with this project.

The forum rules state no Warz discussions, so the official word you will get here is, buy the CD.

It's only like $9 or 10 bucks for the original version of the game. I picked up the trilogy for my nephew for $13.49 from Walmart. The answer, as mattmeck said, is BUY it.

alrighty, thanks for the quick response, i guess its off to wal-mart.

Actually, SoE allows downloading of the original Everquest for free. They even host it on their ftp free to all. So that wouldnt be warez

Ahh i forgot about that, from what was stated last time this was brought up, were aloud to state that fact but we cant give out a link or be more detailed about where to find it then the last post.
