DR4 Broken w/Oct 9 Patch

Merth · #1 10-09-2003, 03:16 AM

The latest EQ Live Patch (Oct 9) has broken the 0.5.0-DR4 EQEMu code. Don't patch! If you already did, you will not be able to play the emulator until we fix it.

If you see a post asking for help with the 1017 error message, it's very likely the person did not read this message. Just point them to the news section!

The official ETA for this fix is April 12, 2007. Hopefully things will go well and we can surprise you with an early release!

No its not a joke, The Devs get sick of people asking for ETA's so they give an ETA like that so people wont ask

1 question why is it 2007? or is that a fake eta just to shut people like myself up?

Its 2007 because it will definetly be done by then and to shut people up :evil:

If you dont mind me asking but what change to make it not work..

Razxan, *i think* your thinking too much about this, just a random date he put so people wouldnt keep asking for an ETA

It should be released roughly around December 5th 2150, that way I can be guarenteed to be dead before it's released.

Merth · #12 10-10-2003, 01:17 AM

EQGame.exe and EQMain.DLL changed.

April 12, 2007 is my birthday. It's your guess as to which one.

You'll be 30?

You mean I have to give a total of $543.90 to Sony before EQEmu will be back up? Sigh..

lol, I love you guys.

Hey, and I've got another idea. (Ya, Bumpo has an idea, be amazed)

Why don't you get several people devoted to backing up their EQ folder every day or something and everytime they have a patch they back up to another folder so that you end up with a record (from now on) of all the patched and unpatched files that can be distributed if needed? I know you've most likely though about this before, or are already doing it, but I just thought it would be a good idea.

Giving out SOE's files is against the law. Most people dont patch to live untill they back up there folder, or dont patch till there told its ok.
