Which is private.

On a lesser note, there's a typo: "verison" >> "version"

I'm having this issue as well, and again have updated the files on the latest patch to no avail... even deleted the old files in the folder and replaced with the new ones, and still getting this error.

Same problem for a number of us. Have seen some suggested fixes, but they did not work. Is there a problem with the patch itself or am I and others doing something wrong?

I'm also having this issue. I have done all the recommended things I could find here on the forums but none have managed to fix the problem. I was wondering if there is an issue with the txt file itself? When I open the txt file to read it, it is unreadable. there are only a large amount of symbols and what appears to just be junk, no actual text. Can anyone share the file so we can compare ?

Someone said it work if the patch is left in download file then moved to the EQ file for a load and replace. Well, I did that, and it did not work.

Finally!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It worked. Here is what I did.

Got Patch 53 and did the patch and replace in the EQ Folder.

Then opened the Patch 53 folder and copy the Spells_us.txt file.

Then go to the EQ folder and open it. Go to Spells_us.txt file. Look at the date. If it is not today's date then copy the file you got from the Patch 53 file. When done, the date should have changed. Close everything and try loading EQ.

For what ever reason, the spells_us.txt was not uploading and updating. From what I can see.
