EQmac Saved - Now FREE to play!

[Happy]

Ok I had issues getting this to work, but finally got it to work properly, here's a rough guide I've drafted to help those who would like to try!

Rough Guide to play EQMAC on PC ( Tested on Windows 7 64bit)
1. Fresh Install of EQ Titanium
2. Take contests of fresh EQ Titanium installation folder and put them into an empty C:\EQMac folder
3. Unzip contents of Secret's patch zip that can be found here http://fileb.ag/0ei29cadn4k7 into C:/EQMac overwriting anything it asks to.
4. Download EQMac via the Web Launchpad 3 http://launch.soe.com/lp3/index.html...skin=everquest
5. Take contents of the Resources folder from the EQMac Launchpad download and copy them INTO C:\EQMac, overwrite anything it asks ( will be a lot )
6. Change desktop to 16bit, run eqw.exe and make sure to check the box for Fix EQclinit.ini

Note* if you want the newer UI, edit eqclient.ini and change newui=FALSE to TRUE, other settings can be changed in eqclient.ini also, like new / old PC models, etc.

Well by using that method I can get to the server select screen, but when I click the server to play, I get a memory reference error and it all closes out. Any ideas?

The file that Secerts posted over on FOH has been removed. Can someone who has the file rehost it? Or if anything, PM me about it.

Uploaded it for you:
*Removed*

P.S. Dont bother Secrets about this - thats why he yanked the file. I am guilty of asking him a question, but I'm sure 1000000 others did too [You must be logged in to view images.

Need to make sure you are putting in secrets patch before you copy in eqmac resources contents. just re-tested this and it should work if u are doing it in that order.

I did the resource copy before patching Secrets' patch and it's working perfectly for me. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

If you get a memory error upon trying to load server select, make sure "fix eqclient.ini" is checked next time you run eqw.exe. That fixed it for me.
