and btw, you don't need to franticly smash your mouse button to get your aswome post up there causing it to double post.
Few Questions for you.
1. When you are running eq from one of the folders, are you using the normal everquest shortcut (causing it to run the patcher program?)
2. If not, have you made shortcuts using the "patchme" method that points to one of the two directories? this will prevent the patcher from loading.
3. When you patch do you see it downloading double of every item? otherwise it shouldn't be updating both directories, what you should do is keep your normal everquest shortcut (the one that runs your eqlive patcher) and Name it EQLive, then make a second one that points to "eqgame.exe patchme" and name it eqemu that way you won't accidently run the patcher on your eqemu folder, and same the other way you won't run off the eqemu in your eqlive folder.
If you still are having problems post exactly what is happening when you try to run the everquest to play on the eqemu servers and we might be able to help you further.
