Awful Patching Server
 
The EQemu patcher is insanely unstable. Why is there not a dedicated link to the eqchanges zip file? If there is, it doesn't seem to be very accessible. Can somebody point me in the right direction?

its currently moving to a new server thus you might experience DNS issues ... blame the internet for up to 48 hours refresh on DNS records ...

Uaellaen 05-29-2013 08:36 PM

can you reach moestaverne.com yet? if so might only take a couple minutes to refresh

right click the top of the patcher, click Start Everquest Only.

Inform before you angry.

I dont get this at all. The Launcher is in NO way required to play on this server. Its not even hosted by the same people, or even made by the same people. In fact... why even use it at all!? Create a shortcut of eqgame.exe, right click, properties, and add the following line to the end of the target.

patchme

hit ok, then launch eq and never see that shit again.

in fact the files provided by the eqemulauncher are uploaded by the server owners ... its a easy to patch tool wich has been working fine until some jealous kids started DDoSing the old server, wich lead to downtimes ... new server should swallow those attacks easily ... but hey feel free to make something better! you all know everything anyway ...

and you will have to patch every patch manualy if you dont use it .. wich is also possible ... but if you play on more then one server? oh yeah you didnt think that far ahead did you mister fox news viewer

Just look in the front page archives for eqchanges.zip

Don't need the patcher if you have that.

And if by "every time they patch" you mean, every 4 months, I could do without.

EDIT: Btw, Im not really sure what you mean by "Fox News Viewer" but if that was some sly attempt at ... whatever it was, I think you missed the ball. Anyways, wasn't trying to bash on your patcher, I'm just saying -- its completely unnecessary and causes WAY more problems and threads than it needs to.
