Unhappy error launching eqgame.exe
So I followed all the steps to playing on an emu server. When I launch the shortcut of eqgame.exe a box comes up that says "please run everquest.exe". Can anyone help me with this? Did I miss something?

When you create a shortcut on your desktop from eqgame.exe you must then right click on the shortcut. Select properties. And where it says target you must add the word patchme after the quotes.
