Maybe this will help you. I replied to another post describing my experience. These are some of the issues that I ran into.

I also do not quite understand. I recently installed this successfully. The issues I ran into are as follows:

For some reason, when I clicked Launch Titanium within the installation directory, it did not work (some message concerning eqgame.ex). The suggestion I found on the forum was rather vague. However, when I created a shortcut of Launch Titanium on my desktop, it ran like a champ.

I believe that EQ cannot run in full screen (as the monitors from this time period were square shaped as opposed to wide screen). Be prepared for a square screen.

Nektulous forrect was crashing for me... I believe that there is a solution in the forums... renaming Nektulos.eqg to Nektulos.old.

During the deleting process... I recall one of the files they said to delete (forget which) had two existing versions. The only difference was one was capitalized and the other not. In their instructions, you should delete files that are exactly capitalized as they in the instructions.

I am far from a computer genius, but I was able to get it to work. If none of this helps you, then you should describe what occurs step by step as you try to start EQ. This is because your question hardly helps guide the people that can help you.

Reply doesn't seem to work because when you are a new forum account your first X amount of posts are filtered and need approval before showing up.

I could say that about League of Legends.

haha I have three lol accounts, two silver and a gold. I played EQ for over 10 years... I MISS eq and don't want to play the real servers where there are bots etc. I really wish to play this game and get the ball rolling!
