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

Actually, I did. And its not rocket science.

Oh and here's one if you cant see my awesomeness through my awesome display resolution.

[You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

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.

Someone who cant use proper punctuation and capitalization calling MY IQ 2? Not sure why you are getting defensive... is it your patcher? That would explain a lot. Like I said, I'm not trying to bash on your program, its just unnecessary. No need to get nasty. And if you do need to get nasty, well... get some advice first. That was weak.

its not my program, and punctuation has nothing to do with anything ... i choose not to use it ... why should i? you dont understand what im saying? awh im so sorry ... wanz gramma moar fuxed ups so u underskandz me? uh uh ah ah ah?

you are unnecessary too, yet you are here ... just because you dont want to use the patcher doesnt mean its unnecessary ... alot of people play on multiple servers and dont want 10 6GB EQ folders shitting up their drives when they can use the launcher to easily patch back and forth in seconds ... but hey you dont have to use it!

but like i said already, you people here know everything ... so lolable

I still fail to see where you got butthurt in all this. Also, I fail to see why you're being such a rude fuck. Also, a decent reason I'm not retorting in any way, shape or form is, you're doing it for me. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] You should also look up the word "Unnecessary". I will do you a world of good with what you are *trying* to argue.

Anyways.... in an attempt to re-affirm this topics purpose...

EQ Host file set to this?

Code:
[LoginServer]
Host=login.eqemulator.net:5998
Also, Setting processor affinity *may* help. I've seen instances with overclocking and dual/quad/sixt/oct core processors unable to get past the login screen without stocking, and setting affinity to one core.

Yes I set his eqhost file to exactly that. In all honesty, interest is already dwindling thanks to League of Legends and the fact that there is no straightforward installation instruction in absence of the launcher.

I'll have him try again perhaps when the launcher is working. Thanks for your help though for those of you who aren't over opinionated trolls...

TLDR; "I made an irrelevant comment about Fox News because I'm one of those douche bag liberals who isn't actually liberal because he chose to be a progressive thinker, but because it's trendy and I'm too stupid to figure it out for myself. All my cool hipster friends said Fox News is bad mmmkay, so if you need to insult someone...."

Meanwhile, the reality is that new players WILL and DO get put off by something that should be a lot more transparent and is unnecessarily convoluted. Fortunately, new servers are coming.


EDIT: Just realized where you're from. Your comments totally make sense now.
