Salutations! First time poster and I do hope that I can avoid leaving a bad impression.

I have installed my copy of EverQuest : Titanium and followed the instructions provided by this lovely site to the strictest interpretation of the letter. However when I attempt to run EverQuest , it begins to patch and about half-way through I receive the following message.

Error : Could not download to file.

Please rerun EverQuest.exe and try again.

Admittedly , I am confused by the need to patch in the first place. (As the instructions made it clear to me that there would be no patching involved)

EDIT : It's working now. I am an idiot. : EDIT

Any and all insight to the matter would be great appreciated!

You're not supposed to run the patcher. Uninstall, reinstall and <follow> the instructions!

You're supposed to edit the EQHost.txt file and then make a shortcut to the EQgame.exe. That way you do not run the patcher and log on to the right servers.

Doh! Yeah I knew something felt off. . I could have sworn that I did as instructed. Apparently I need to pay more attention when I read. I'm already reinstalling. I'll be sure to 'measure twice , cut once' . . so to speak.
