A question that i need some help with.
 

Hi, i had EQemu before the servers or whatever happened did....i copied the EQ directory from a freind and then downloaded the things he said too....then when it said i couldnt connect to patch server....i deleted the game....now that its back up...i cant copy from my freind....so i looked around for a HOW TO forum...i found it...i did what it told me... now what do i download? the patcher? what?

You could start by reading the play guide found here

http://www.eqemulator.net/?p=playguide

Which guide in the HOWTO forum did you follow ? What errors are you getting ? You said you deleted the game, so you don't have a copy of the Sony EQ client ?

i have the game installed up to lucilen or whatever...i deleted the game beacuse it was not working.... then i did the HOWTO PLAY
so now do i download the patcher or what??
and i already did...so then how do i get it to connect to PATCHER SERVER? when i click on the icon it says CANNOT CONNECT TO PATCHER SERVER..

Where in the Play Guide did you see anything about the patcher?

Install the game from your EQ CDs, run EQ, then follow the instructions in

http://www.eqemulator.net/forums/viewtopic.php?t=9649

omitting step 1, since when you run EQ after installing from the CDs, you will patch to EQLive. There is a patch today, so whether that patch will work with EQemu 5.0 is yet to be seen.

ok i looked at the PLAYGUIDE and well i DL EQwindows...then it says point at the EQ directory...i put in c:\program files\everquest
instead of w/e was in there....and it says CANNOT START c:\program files\everquest....what now? THIS IS ANNOYING! lol :evil:

You wont be able to log in anyway there is an issue with the forum not creating the accounts in the login program. and right now there is ot much player content because 5. is still under development. try reading the forums your not the first person to have issues getting EMU running and all questions have been answered multiple times.

when i dl EQemu 5.0 what do i do with all the crap in it?

Do you have EQ installed in c:\program files\everquest ? In EQW, the 'Executable to launch' should point to the file eqgame.exe wherever it is installed (from your offical EQ CDs).

To play on 0.4.4 (fully playable):
You need EQ installed and patched to no later than December, 2002. If you are patched to far before or after that, you cannot play on 0.4.4 you need to play on 0.5.0.

To play on 0.5.0 (Beta - *NOT* fully playable):
Install EQ
Patch to Live
Change eqhost.txt to point to eqlogin1.eqemulator.net:5997 in both sections.
Run "eqgame.exe patchme" from your EQ directory or use EQW and uncheck the "run patcher" option.
Login and run around. If you get "bad username/password" then you hit the forum/login db sync bug. No ETA on that fix.
