Can't get it started. no eqclient.ini file??
 

Posting this here as I know more will see it faster than the tech area..
I keep getting this problem and this post suggest an easy fix but the problem is that no "eqclient.ini" file exist as mentioned in this fix. Any help?

1. Help! When I try to run eq, at some point before entering the game, I get an error that looks something like this:
The instruction at 0x029110ce referenced memory at 0xfffffffc. The memory could not be read

This solution to this is actually very simple. Go to your EQ folder. Find the file eqclient.ini and open it in a text editor (i use notepad, its the simplest to use)

hit ctrl+f, type windowedwidth, you should see something like this:

WindowedWidth=1280
WindowedHeight=768
Width=1280
Height=768
FullscreenBitsPerPixel=32
FullscreenRefreshRate=0
WidthWindowed=1280
HeightWindowed=768


change it to this:

WindowedWidth=800
WindowedHeight=600
Width=800
Height=600
FullscreenBitsPerPixel=32
FullscreenRefreshRate=0
WidthWindowed=800
HeightWindowed=600

I'm using 800 x 600 here, but you may need to fiddle with that a bit. If 800 x 600 isnt working, try using your monitors native resolution instead. Eventually, you will get a combination that works, just keep trying.

Do you have hidden files and folders and system files turned on to be visible in windows?

More will see it, but if you post in Technical Discussion you will get an informed answer from the regulars in that forum much more quickly. Tech Discussion is the first forum I check when I visit the forums. Also, please search the Technical Discussion forum before posting as there have already been multiple threads about this topic.

Your problem is unrelated to eqclient.ini because that file is generated the first time EQ is successfully launched - the solution posted in the FAQ thread is only for when you get that error after you've already loaded EQ. Unfortunately, I'm not sure what the solution is for your issue, but here are a couple threads that have some things you can try: http://www.project1999.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=252780, http://www.project1999.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=253178

I need to correct my post. I thought that was what message I got but I wrote it down and this is the exact message it's giving me.

The instruction at 0x02cef0ce referenced memory at 0xfffffffc. The memory could not be read. Click on OK to terminate the program.

For all troubleshooting intents and purposes, the errors "The instruction at 0x029110ce referenced memory at 0xfffffffc. The memory could not be read." and "The instruction at 0x02cef0ce referenced memory at 0xfffffffc. The memory could not be read." are identical. It's when they occur that differentiates your issue from the issue addressed in the FAQ thread. The issue addressed in the FAQ thread is specific to a resolution issue related to eqclient.ini, while your issue has a multitude of possible causes which do not involve eqclient.ini.

In other words, there is not a clear solution for your problem because a lot of different things can cause it. Your best bet is to a) try the things in the threads I linked, b) acquire a new copy of EQ Titanium and reinstall it following the steps in the Getting Started Guide, and c) repeat a through c if you're still getting the same error.

I finally got it to launch by clicking make compatible with windows 7 and set to lowest resolution. Now it's telling me wrong password. Isn't your log in info the same as your log in info here now?

Nah, Loginserver Accounts are created using an eqemulator.org account.

Not any more I don't believe. I know mine is the same as this log in info now.

Your forum account name and password should never be the same as your login server account names and passwords.
