Hopeful I got some patterns going so far. If other people are clearly in camp 1 or 2 and haven't posted yet, hope they do soon.
Cyrax91x is the only person that reported being in camp 1.
Xiix came close to claiming camp 2, but then he had a problem so that puts him in camp 4 (nothing works for him).
Also in camp 4:
Planeguy
Evilfnagol
madborg (second machine)
I will probably browse the board at the other postings but I am only concerned with the ones that are clear in camp 1 or 2 right now. All the ones in camp 4 have either something set up wrong on the server side, on the client side, or it's their graphics.
oh, I fogot-- I have to run one more pass on my second system. Because I didn't confirm that my eqw 2.2 would pass or fail. If it passes, the Cyrax91x has company; if it fails, then he is alone and that makes this problem more containable. I predict that my 2.2 will fail.
**added**
Tried eqw on my second machine. Everything went fine until character select. I saw in my zone box two things:
1. Maps directory not found. True, I don't have that directory and don't plan to have one.
2. Couldn't register zone. This is interesting given that I use boot5zones.bat. But this what is causing me to not get into the zone. if the zone doesn't register, then you don't get in.
I suspect that I was getting the same messages when I was using eqgame patchme, but I couldn't see the messages. This may also expain why no one is in camp 2.
Camp 2 say this "I can only run with eqgame patchme and not with eqw 2.2". I thought someone had posted like that, but because I am tryin to stay off the computer as much as I can, haven't found it.
Differences between my machine 1 and 2:
2 has only 128 MB memory, different graphics card, and is a one-machine setup.
My number 2 is solid and has no problems.
So everyone in camp 4, concentrate with just eqw 2.2 and look to see how far you really get and the actual messages for the zone window corresponding to the zone your character is trying to enter. I suspect that everyone in camp 4 is using a one box set up too. Post if that is not the case.
