Default Old EQ & New Resolutions

I can't speak for everyone, but I now know exactly what caused this crash for me.

Widescreen monitors.

Bumping the res down to 1280x1024 fixes it, but it looks like crap. Did EQlive ever have an issue with this and solve it? Perhaps it's time EQemu looks at moving forward to that?

Actually, you are right. I usually copy my old 1280x1024 eqclient.ini from a backup dir to my eqemu client when I reinstall and it fixes things for my 1680x1050 monitor. Once I get running though, I can switch from windowed and use full resolution and it stays good.

Just to let you know that both my accounts work perfectly and when my friend tries to login he has this problem. So i logged in on his PC with my account and it has worked flawlessly. He then tried on my PC and failed every time.

I have a strong feeling there is a problem somewhere on the logon server side as I have encountered 3 other people with the exact same issue. Regardless of eqclient settings.

There are multiple problems haunting us right now... but luckily I believe some of the resolution problems can be resolved. The survey problem, thorn-meet-side...

Is this where the client asks you to answer a survey upon login?

One EQgame.exe crash is. Its due to bad packets from the client and the server regarding a survey that pops up and ask you question like "Is This thing Working" or somethign like that.

The other well known one is due to High Resolution Widescreen Monitors not having there abilities set up in Titanium so you crash out.

So does this mean there's a way to configure the client in game to accept widescreen monitors? I've looked in options, and didn't see anything, but I'm notoriously blind when it comes to obvious things.

Anyone know of a workaround that's not changing desktop resolution every time I want to play?
