Installation problem

[Magus113]

Having trouble installing EQ titanium. I dont have disc 5 and my pc tells
me i cant finish installing without it, is there a way around this or do i absolutely need disc 5? Please help! I desperately want to relive my eq days

[rictus204]

gonna need the disc, or torrent the files you'll need.

[Zallarenya]

You're going to need disc 5. I'd try the torrent listed in the setup guide.

[Magus113]

okay i wasnt sure if it was kosher or not to post about torrents but I actually downloaded the torrent this site gives a link to and its telling me to insert disc 5. Any idea why?

[Magus113]

Is there something i didnt unzip maybe?

[Magus113]

Anyone know where i can find a torrent of just disc 5???

[Savok]

You know you can download just part of a torrent right?

[Magus113]

I actually figured it out but after everything is
installed it asks me to insert disc 1....now what do i do???

[Magus113]

okay so i inserted my original EQ disc i got back in '99 and it worked! but now i cant find eqhost.txt, but i did find one downloaded from the torrent and changed everything like this site tells you too, even the properties of the EQ icon but it seems to be patching to the SOE servers anyway. I'm not too good with pc's so i need all the help i can get

This server only supports EverQuest Titanium. We cannot provide support for your original installation of EverQuest.

The Titanium torrent and our setup guide contains all the steps necessary to begin play.

Well what I dont understand is what I'm supposed to do when after installing EQ Titanium from the torrent I downloaded, it asks for Disc 1? Has anyone else encountered this problem? I just uninstalled EQ then installed it again from the torrent and it did the same thing. What now?

The installer always asked for disc 1 again at the end after disc 5. Just give it disc 1 again, and it will complete.

Thats the thing tho, i downloaded the torrent from this site so I dont have any discs...

I'm not terribly familiar with the torrent, but if it's like most, once you uncompress the file you should be presented with several folders which contain the CD ISOs.

That being the case, mount CD1's ISO for disc 1 and then point the installer at its mounted drive letter.

[Zallarenya]

Sorry, I guess I misunderstood. The phrases "after installing EQ Titanium" and "just uninstalled EQ and then installed it again" led me to believe you had, well.. installed it, which means you'd have to have mounted the CDs from the torrent at one time or another.

If you haven't, then as Tork suggests, mount the iso files as drive letters. I hear poweriso works easily for this.

Im having the same issue as magus it asks for disc 1 problem is when i browse through the files that i have unzipped there is no iso for disc 1 or any disc for that matter just datacab1 through 8 and none of them do anything

Whatever you did to mount the first disc when you started the installation process.... do that again to mount disk 1.

....then once you get it all installed, patched and working (you can log in to the game) Copy the entire directory to a safe place then you never have to "install" again. Love games like EQ and Soldier of Fortune II that allow you to run it from it's directory.
