please help... I can't get any of this to work.

Here's what I did to get in:

1 : Make a copy of EQ in a new directory named EQEMULATER. The Copy will be what you run EQEmu in. Having the copy will help prevent patching.

2 : In your new EQEMULATER directory, find and open the " eqhost.txt " file. Delete everythign inside and replace it all with this :

[Registration Servers]
{
"eqlogin1.eqemu.net:5999"
}
[Login Servers]
{
"eqlogin1.eqemu.net:5999"
"eqlogin2.eqemu.net:5999"
}


This is found at http://www.eqemu.net/documents/readme.html (You DID read the readme, didn't you?)

3 : Get a copy of EQWindows, ( found at EQwindows.com ) and install it.

4 : Run EQWindows. A popup will for EQW will appear, you need to make sure that the "Run Patch Program" and the "Play on Test" ARE NOT turned on. The third choice "Fix eqclient.ini" should be the only one turned on.

5 : Still in the EQWindows popup, click "Browse" by the "executable to launch" selector. You'll need to change it to the "eqgame.exe" in your EQEMULATER directory.

6 : Start EQ with the "Start EQ" button in EQWindows. Remember to use your login and password for EQEmu not for your station account.


Some Commands for ingame:

#help -- should list the commands available to your level of access.
#level <number> -- sets you to the listed level.
#zonestatus -- shows which zones are surrently operating.
#zone <short name> -- this will take you to the zone of your choice.
#setallskill <number> -- Sets all your skills to what ever number you choose.
#search <item name> -- searches for the item number of a given item.
#summonitem <item number> -- loads the item to your curser tip.
#findspell &lt;spell name> -- Finds the effect number for a given spell.
#cast &lt;number> -- casts the given spell. Class doesn't seem to matter. *** NOTE *** Yellat Me has posted on these forums (look for "GM Commands... in the hands of your local village idiot!" ) that excessive use of this command can cause extreme lag and disconnection... try to use sparingly.


I hope that helps you. I'd like to say "It's not that hard", but since it took me 3 tries, I'll keep quiet.
