EQEmu Launcher world server down

[Norther]

Awesome. Tried to open the EQEmu launcher, and I get this:

Loading serverlist ...
Could not reach webserver. Trying again in 10 seconds.

I even tried to go to moestaverne.com, but nothing. Looks like there's a host of issues all around.

[Crug]

Yeah I got the same problem. Just got to wait til they get around to fixing it.

[Crug]

Huzzah its working!

[Clark]

launcher isn't workin for me either gah

[Vladiimir]

Don't run it from the launcher then... The EQEmuLauncher is always borked...

Don't run it from the launcher then... The EQEmuLauncher is always borked...

how would I go about doing that, not very comp savy

[Uaellaen]

blame it on the retard kids that try to DDoS the service currently ... the launcher is not always borked, but 9038240 client connections make it kinda slow for everyone

Create a shortcut to eqgame.exe (right click>Send to>Desktop) and in the file path put "patchme" behind the location. Keep in mind this will stop autopatching and you'll have to apply any patches manually by unzipping the contents into your Everquest folder.

IE the following exactly as it appears for whatever path you have:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Everquest\eqgame.exe" patchme

[Uaellaen]

to the retard kid that is organising this: exclude the eqemulauncher the next time, its not only used by P99 but by many other servers ... and its not even hosted by rogean so you are not even doing anything to him with that

Don't run it from the launcher then... The EQEmuLauncher is always borked...

let me clarify some things:

first of all, i wrote EQEmuLauncher ages ago, on 99% of the users, it works smooth, sometimes it has connection problems, but that is not always my or my servers fault.. you see the "newsbox" on the top? if its moestaverne.com which has problems, there are no news there.. if its the eqemulator serverlist, then news are there but the serverlist doesnt show up..

also when refreshing, it says "connecting to eqemulator.com" -> this is actually just a text, it doesnt connect to "eqemulator.com", it actually connects directly to moestaverne.com which caches the serverlist, which is requested directly by the eqemulator.net ip (so moestaverne.com doesnt spam eqemulator)

i stopped playing this game ages ago (way more than a year now), and so did most of my friends i played with...
however im still running this service for free for you guys and even did tiny updates and trying to keep it online..

my server hasnt had a single DDoS attack before the eqemulauncher, now its like on a monthly basis..


in june 2012, the launcher has been started 30529 times and i got 1 feedback-email saying it doesnt work since june.. so in my opinion: most of the people using the launcher like it ;)

thats just my 2 cents, and to the ddos retards a quick reply: go and f**k yourself!

Hmm...Where do I get the zipped file? On the Getting Started page it just says to download the eqemu launcher to patch and doesn't have a link for the patch directly.

[Uaellaen]

it wont make a difference anyway, the launcher only gets DDoSed because of P99, so you wont be able to log in to P99 anyway

They usually have a link for the latest patch files on the front page. Currently it's version 23. You only need to apply it when they put out another version, of course.

Friday 6 July. I have this happening right now. Anyone else?

[danceparty]

yes right now

[maahes]

I never once have had issues with EQemu Launcher. Great addition to my emulated NerdQuest adventures!

[Aryllyian]

I still cannot get the EQemu patcher to work. Been 3 hours now. Everyone else can login just fine?

[Rumzuck]

try it now, eqemulauncher should work again.. oh btw scriptkiddies: in your face!

Have the url for the maps(arena and nektulous)? As someone else mentioned the getting started page was re-done and doesn't have the old links.

[Qadosx]

Actually I remember now that you just have to delete two files to get those two maps to work, is there anything else that the patcher does to get a fresh install working other than patch the files in the eqchanges zip?

[Blancah]

In game maps have been completely disabled if that's what you're referring to. I use http://www.eqmacwiki.com/eqatlas/atlas.html for all my map needs.

EQemu Launcher hasn't been working for the past hour. Unfortunate. I wonder if everyone else is having this problem too?

[Rumzuck]

The Launcher is working... Due to spamming and DDoS-kiddies, i had to take some actions regarding autobans... unfortunately, not 100% of the banned people are actual spamming, but i take it better 1 or 2 people get false banned, than moestaverne.com being down and no1 being able to use the launcher..

the ban is only temporary, so if you got banned, you should be able to use it again soon..

a good advice is: do not refresh the serverlist/news too quick =)



Btw: if you use eqemulauncher 1.22 i recommend to update to 1.24, the update only takes seconds and is doing its job automatically, this will also take care of some connectionproblems
