eqhost probs

superdan · #1 03-23-2006, 04:21 PM

I've edited the eqhost file just like it describes in the playguide, but when i try to log in it tells me that it can't find the eqhost file. Now i've checked, rechecked and triple checked spelling and the such and can't find out what i'm doing wrong. I feel like a total noob on this one so can someone plz help me?

The only time I experienced this was when I changed the eqgame.exe and/or eqmain.dll (can't remember which one) just for experiment purposes, but when I tried to log in it couldn't find the eqhost.txt file because it was in a different format.

i.e. This is from a client that works with 6.0:

Code:

[LoginServer]
Host=eqemulator.net:5994

and this one worked with a really old client:

Code:

newlogin1.eqemulator.net
5994

So maybe the the .txt file your using somehow doesn't match the format that EverQuest is looking for. I hope this was at all helpful...
