You first create your forum account...which I assume you did.

You then create your LS account (Login Server) at:

http://eqemulator.net/forums/profile...o=newlsaccount

Once you do that ensure you do the following:

Step 4 - EQHost File
In order for your client to connect to the EQEmulator Login Server (and not SOE's EQLive Login Server), you will need to change your eqhost.txt file to point at the correct location. Go into your EverQuest directory and locate the eqhost.txt file. Replace the contents of the file with the following (Remove any trailing spaces):

Titanium or Secrets of Faydwer:

[LoginServer]
Host=eqemulator.net:5998

Seeds of Destruction/Underfoot:

[LoginServer]
Host=eqemulator.net:5999


Step 5 - Creating Shortcut
Now, you will need to create a shortcut to launch EverQuest and bypass the EQLive patcher (if this step is not taken, you will launch the patcher and overwrite the EQHost.txt file that you just modified, making you connect to the global EQLive Login Server). To do this, go into your EverQuest directory. Locate the EQGAME.EXE file. Right-click on the file and select "Create Shortcut." You can rename this shortcut and drag it anywhere you'd like (most people like to put it on their desktop). Now, right-click that shortcut and select Properties. In the target box, you will see the path to the eqgame.exe file. We need to edit this so that it will pass an argument to that executable when the shortcut is launched. At the end of the text box (after any parentheses), add "patchme" (no quotes). Your target box should look similar to this:


"C:\Program Files\Everquest\eqgame.exe" patchme

Or if you do not have spaces in the path, it will look like this without quotes:


C:\Everquest\eqgame.exe patchme

You have to both have LS accounts already...then you go to:

http://www.project1999.org/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=25

Which is the "petition" forum on this site and there are instructions there for you to submit for an IP exemption.

Be careful with it...they do monitor and if you are caught 2-boxing (meaning you decide to play your roomates account while he isn't around etc... together at the same time as your own) they will ban the accounts.
