Error 1010? (And yes I did search for it)

[billiameo]

So change

[LoginServer]
Host=eqemulator.net:5998

To

[LoginServer]
Host=64.251.21.39:5998

Gonna try that now.

------

Update:

Still says the 1010 no host error. I saved the host.txt file to ALL files from the EQ properties menu.. What else should I try? I'm game for ANY advice *-)

you keep calling it host.txt someone else called it eqhosts.txt


it is eqhost.txt

if you saved it as eqhost.txt when it was already eqhost.txt it may have saved as eqhost.txt.txt make sure thats not the case

[billiameo]

When I go to Properties from the EQ shortcut Icon I find eqhost.txt

The content of that txt file is what has been posted earlier. I'm fairly sure that the problem is with my eq host directory because I've put in 1 letter for both station name and password to see if the error message would change. Granted I am definitely not a computer specialist so I'm glad to try any and all fixes presented.!!

So should I make a new eqhost.txt file on my computer's notepad?? I'm not sure because it wasn't in the guide that I downloaded.

That is the wiki guide you should be using. The eqhost.txt file is really simple. All you do is go to your everquest directory and look for a file called eqhost.txt. Then double click that file and it will open up in notepad. Then put in the following information:

[LoginServer]
Host=eqemulator.net:5998

Make sure that you remove everything else that is in that file. Then click "file" and then "save" in notepad (don't "save as"). This will automatically save the changes without having to worry about it adding another file extension onto it. That is all. You are making it too complicated. You don't have to have any other host files anywhere or edit any of your other host files.

The only thing that concerns me is that you said you right clicked on your eqemu shortcut icon and went to properties and it listed the eqhost.ini file in there??? That definitely shouldn't be there lol. The only things you need in there are:

Target:
"C:\Program Files\Everquest\eqgame.exe" patchme

Start in:
C:\Program Files\Everquest\

There shouldn't be anything about eqhost.ini in your shortcut.

[billiameo]

The above suggestions have all been done. As for the eqhost.ini... I believe my post said eqhost.txt I don't even know what a .ini is *-P

C:Program Files\Everquest\

Not

C:Program Files\Sony\Everquest\

??

I tried to take the sony out of it but I get an error ...

Not Valid make sure that the folder exists and that the path is correct.

[billiameo]

I've attempted to put

"C:\Program Files\Sony\Emulator\Eqgame.exe" patchme

In the target box but everytime I try to apply I get this message

Invalid make sure the path and file name are correct.

??

[billiameo]

It seems in that Target sentence

"C:\Program Files\Sony\Emulator\Eqgame.exe" patchme

The only problem it has is changing "Everquest" to "Emulator".

You need the Titanium edition of EverQuest. The eqhost you found from 2002 is for older clients. If you have Titanium, make sure you are editing eqhost.txt and not any other file.

It should already have some other stuff in it that looks similar to this:

[LoginServer]
Host=eqemulator.net:5998

but with sony's servers in front of Host=

You need to change that to eqemulator.net:5998

Then do the patchme method as stated in the guide. Good luck.

Will Everquest: Secrets of Faydwer work instead of Titanium? This is all i have, its the newest version of EQ w/ all of its 14 expansions

Any help would be appreciated

Yes, it is eqhost.txt, that was a typo in my earlier message. The "host" that I'm referring to is in the actual txt message Host=
