You don't need a mac.
It's free.
It's a legitimate SOE EQ server with real GM/Advisor support
It's capped at Planes of Power but we're progressing through content @ the Velious level. Send me a PM and I'll link you a "Get Started" guide.

did you play on Saryrn, I knew a character named Once there.

that loadscreen image makes me think you're not using the titanium client.

It defaults to the PoP loadscreen. It doesn't uset he DoDH one stock with titanium. In fact, the EQMac client doesn't even use things like the globalload.txt file, zonename_chr.txt files, or most anything in the resources folder (Where the loadscreen is kept in modern clients). It's not coded to.

I was having very strange problems with this.
The graphics were messing up very strangely, and I was running at supersonic speed.
Fixed it.

You need to set processor affinity to 1.
This is what my command line looks like...
C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe /C start /affinity 1 eqw.exe

OMG I was just fixing to post this as my issue!

Thanks, I`ll try this fix tonight.

Wished i had gotten SS, was funny watching my character model folding in half and arms stretched behind their heads...

You don't need to set your color depth to 16. Have it set to both 32 on the desktop and inside the eqclient.ini file.

Here is some lines I changed in my eqclient.ini file

NewUI=TRUE

UseD3DTextureCompression=TRUE
MipMapping=TRUE
ShowDynamicLights=TRUE

TextureCache=TRUE
VideoModeBitsPerPixel=32

Width=1680
Height=990
(obviously this changes depending on your screen size)

Must say my client is working very nicely now on EQMAC, expecially since I found out how to adjust the fps with nvidiainspector.
Got a necro up to level 11.
Want to hunt wisps? Make a level 1 mage and give myself some magic daggers. Score!
(But I decided commons sucked even so. Too many adds. Went to nro where it is very safe)

Seems like a waste, but I doubt I'll be back. Too many problems with this server and just reading through the forums doesn't give me any incentive to get to the end game.

I thought I understood you here, but I am not sure how to type to the \cmd window.
i typed it as you have it and it didn't like it. also, will this "affinity 1" mess with anything else in my computer?

my issue atm is everything is moving at the sound of speed..even mobs.

Yes, setting the affinity to 1 should fix it. All it does is restrict the program to 1 core. It won't affect your computer at all. Normally this is done for you by wineq when you tick the affinity box.

What you have to do is drag the eqw.exe onto your dektop with the alt pressed down. This will create a shortcut.
Then right click on the shortcut... properties.
Then type what i said into "target".. ie

C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe /C start /affinity 1 eqw.exe
