Hello friends long story short I need help on how to extract the new patch files 35 and 36 to my Mac mini to get it working again. I'm not very computer or tec smart. My cousin got me playing EQ again but he was the one who got it downloaded and running great before it went to the new patch. Now he is off to college and I don't know how to upgrade it. I managed to get a level 25 cleric on red before the new patch and I wish to keep leveling with all you great people. I was thinking if anyone is interested maybe I could give someone my phone number and we could FaceTime and someone please show me how to put the new files where they need to be. I would love to continue playing EQ but it states my spell files are outdated. Can someone please help me? My phone number is 267-667-7177. EQ always had a special place in my heart. Just when I finally get back It went away again lmao.

find where the everquest folder is located. download the latest patch and extract the files to that folder. play everquest.

Um.. I would start by contacting your cousin? You're gonna get trolled here posting your phone number not the best idea.. Unless you yourself are a troll, possibly posting someone else's number........

Just take the files out of the zip and place them into your Eq folder. maybe ask lite to do a video tutorial on the most efficient way to pvp your zip files, maybe stream it live with you. he might do it.

1) download current spell file
2) extract the file to your sony folder( click browse and go to sony folder)
3) play
Im about as dumb as it comes when computers are involved. But it is so easy.

I'm not trolling ...that really is my number...Im just so stupid with computers and I really want to play pvp with you guys...on live I was on a regular server the tribunal. I just recently got back in the game and my cousin had it all set up nice for me until this recent patch and I haven't played for like 2 months. Everquest I hold in high regards and I truly think we are some of the best video gamers in the world and have the best community as well. We are not as immature as WoW or other Mmorpg gamers for sure. I just truly need help guys. I don't know what else to do except seek help from you guys. Yes I took a risk putting my number but if someone can help me play EQ with you guys that's a risk I was going to take. If you want to Troll me go ahead but I know we are better then that here. We always have been the best in my eyes. Trust me I feel really stupid sitting here telling you guys I don't know what the fuck I'm doing but it's the truth.

I think the issue he may be having is that when you copy the files back into wineskin, upon copying the subdirectories, all the content in the subdirectories disappear and are replaced with the few files in the copied directory. You need to go into each subdirectory and manually copy the files across.
