Are you trying to run a server or just trying to play the game via the public servers?

I'm just trying to pick the server that I play on. (Stormhaven) but like i said before there aren't any servers that pop up. Just the border or the server listing, and all the other buttons like chat, admin, ect....

your eqhost.txt file should read:

[LoginServer]
Host=eqemulator.net:5998

That's what someone else told me too, but I've restarted it up to 20 times and it's been this way for 3 days :/

So, from the PMs you sent me, I know that you already tried uninstalling and deleting the folder and then reinstalling from the CDs and it still is giving you the same problem where you can log in and can't see the server list.

It's weird that it worked on your other PC, but not this one. That would make me think this is some sort of driver or network issue.

Are you sure that you installed EQ Titanium from retail CDs and not an illegal copy or the individual expansions? It has to be the retail Titanium pack. The individual expansions won't work.

Also, is there a chance that you might be fowarding ports on your router for some reason? If so, try turning that off. If you have port 5998 setup to forward to your other PC, I am pretty sure that would cause issues with this.

If you have any P2P or Torrent or any other file sharing running on your PC, turn them all off. Disable or turn off any firewalls including Windows Firewall as well.

Last, if you are trying to play from a new location than when you played on your other PC, that might be the problem. Like for example; if you are now in a college dorm and trying to play, they almost always run a proxy and commonly block ports that EQEmu needs. If you are playing from home on a normal network setup, this shouldn't be an issue.

Let us know if any of this info helps or if you can give more info on the problem.

I'm playing off a actual legal copy of titanium. Like I said the same eq file that works on a laptop isn't working on my house PC. I have disabled all fire walls. I'm not going through a router. Connection is from a straight DSL modem that doesn't have any real security setting. I'm at home. No other computers are connected to the modem. I'm just not having any luck getting the servers to pop up.
