Default EQGFX_DX8 problem
OK, so far, this emu works great, all the way up to the server select screen, where i pick my server, try to connect to it, and the screen goes black, and i get an error saying:

"Eqgame has caused an error in EQGFX_DX8.dll, EQgame will now close."

How would i go about fixing this error? I am really interested in playing an Eq Emu!

Thanks

Try running a thourough file check when u patch EQ. then download the required eqhost.txt ( http://www.eqemu.net ) and EQW 2.2 ( http://eqw.eqhackers.com )

Extract both those files into your EQ dir and you should be good to go.

Oh and also make sure your display settings are set to 16 bit.
