Sometimes windows likes to hide the common ( and not so common ) file extensions. Make sure you have file extensions turned on so you can see the full file name. You may have a eqhost.txt.txt file , thats why everquest doesn't recognise it. Make sure this is in the eqhost.txt file ,
Code:
[LoginServer]
Host=eqemulator.net:5998
and that the file is in your everquest root directory.
EQEmu is for FRESH , UNPATCHED , fully installed , TITANIUM Everquest installs.
There's 3 steps to play on EQEmu servers.
1.) Install TITANIUM Everquest CD's onto your computer. DO NOT PATCH.
2.) Change EQHOST.TXT to
Code:
[LoginServer]
Host=eqemulator.net:5998
3.) Find eqgame.exe in your Everquest ROOT directory , make a shortcut on your desktop that points to eqgame.exe ( can do this in WindowsXP by right clicking on eqgame.exe , go down to send to , then clicking on Desktop (create shortcut ) ) . Now when you have your shortcut on your desktop , right click on your shortcut , you will see target type , target location , and target. Click on Target text area , hit backspace then paste this into that area.
Code:
"C:\Program Files\Sony\EverQuest\eqgame.exe" patchme
OR just add patchme AFTER the " . There is a space between the " and patchme.
After all of that your ready to rock and roll. ALWAYS USE THE SHORTCUT YOU JUST MADE ON YOUR DESKTOP TO START EQ.
There's quite a few good servers up and running. *cough* Darktides *cough*
But find one that suits you the best , afterall we're all here to have fun!
