HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Okay... I'm assuming you have all of the necessary files and its simply a problem bypassing the launcher. The first thing you'll need to ensure is you dont patch via the EQ launcher. There is a setup for launching directly past that in some of the startup guides but this is the way I go about it for my setup.

Step 1: Download the launch file I've attached here. (note I had to attach it as a .txt file because of upload restrictions for these forums)

Step 2: Remove the .txt file extension and put .bat instead which upon saving should change the icon to a little cog symbol.

(If you cant see file extensions like .txt and .bat after the file names you can read how to unhide file extensions here)

Step 3: Move the .bat launch file into your EQ directory. (This is the same place where the eqgame.exe file should reside)

Step 4: Create a short-cut from the Project1999Launch.bat file for your desktop. (To create a shortcut in Win 7, Right-Click => Send to => Desktop)

Step 5: Launch EQ using the desktop shortcut.

I guess this solution may seem a little complicated at a glance but I find it works best to get things running efficiently as it also helps solve a few problems such as Cpu Affinity etc. which may arise later in your P99 experiences. Hope this or some other solution works. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
