Sooo i guess im gonna have to follow these directions after i get all updated?

That's right.. With 5.8DR-1 release around the corner, come try it out with your live patched client.

Here is what you need to do:

1 - Reset Authorization
First you will need to reset your "authorization". You'll need to do this only once, unless eqlive changes the key they use in the client or if you want to change your password. Point your browser to the following age to reset it.
http://www.eqemulator.net/eqresetauthrequest.php

The login/password you enter here is what you would normally enter on the loginserver. It is not your forum account name and password.

Notice it has your IP listed. This is only needed in resetting your authorization. Once your authorization is updated, you can log in to the login server from any IP (see below).

2 - Login to EQ
First, change your eqhost.txt to:
Code:
[LoginServer]
Host=eqemulator.net:5996

Then you will need to log in to the login server from EQ from the same IP as you connected to the authorization reset page . This is very important. After this, what ever IP you want to connect to the login server from is fine.

3 - Enjoy 5.8DR-1
When you get to the login server, you will probably only see one server at this time, "EQEmu Official Test [Non-Legit]". Feel free to login and test it out and report bugs.

X - Running your own 5.8DR-1
Once 5.8DR-1 is released, make sure your LoginServer.ini points to the new loginserve as well:Code:
[LoginServer]
loginserver=eqemulator.net
loginport=5996


This is very beta, so please let me know of any bugs with the login server. EQEmu 5.8DR-1 bugs can be reported on the forums.[/code]

no. you just use the wr patcher dude.

those are instructions for a beta server that's just testing out eqemu being compatible with live. thats not the server you want if your just looking for a legit free eq server.

Aye i guess im not through the woods yet. When i try to start the game up after trying to make a char it says it detects that i have crashed recently and it wants me to send in my information including the server im playing on...i have a feeling i dont wanna tell them im playing on this free server and if i say no the game closes and does this again wen i start up...wat should i do?

goto www.wintersroar.com and download the patch that makes you not crash when you create your char.
