Yet another server connection issue
Ok, so... I swear I searched for pages and pages reading every thread that seemed to be about this issue. I, however, seem to have a twist.
My EQEmulator works!
Sometimes.
Here's what happened.
Last night, I installed EQ Titanium from my old CD's. Followed all of the instructions on the EQEmulator website, yada yada. Finally it's time to log in and play! I chose a server (SoA) and created a character. Wow! Looks just like Live! I logged in for a few minutes before leaving to go do something else. I came back later to find that, after logging in and selecting a server and hitting the "Play Everquest!" button, the game crashes and kicks me back to the login screen. I explored these forums looking for advice. I turned off my antivirus, first. Boom! It worked. I played for an hour or so last night. Today, I try to log in again... same issue. Kicks me back to the login screen. If I try to log in after getting kicked, it gives me the error:
"Error 1017: Cannot login to the Everquest server. You may need to re-run the Update Patch. Repeatedly seeing this message indicates a loss of connectivity to the Patch Server. This is usually temporary."
Again, I search the forums. I read something about firewalls, so I switch that off. Boom! It worked. Played for another little while. Now... it's tonight. I logged in to try to get some levels and explore some more, only to get booted while zoning. No big deal, I thought. However, when I tried to log in after getting kicked, guess what happened? Same error.
I can't keep turning off more and more things! Or is there one thing I'm not turning off? What really irks me is that it was working! Not even an hour ago it was working just fine.
Please help!
