Project 1999 F.A.Q.

[Shawnleroy27]

Seems this thread has been dead a while.
Well, anyway, I am new to P99. Just registered last night. I've been searching high and low (mostly low) for ways to get this baby to work for me (and have searched the forums as well).
I downloaded a fresh install of EQ Titanium Edition as per instruction.
I downloaded the EQemu launcher.
I checked and double checked my files to make sure everything is where it is supposed to be.
But I am still having difficulty logging in.
Maybe it's because I don't seem to be able to locate a eqhost.txt file anywhere on my computer.
I might have a unique situation. I have a folder on my desktop called EQEMU where I have the EQemu launcher downloaded, but the actual EQ game is in a folder in my public files under "Sony Online Entertainment/Installed games/EverQuest". See, I used to play on Fippy Darkpaw a year ago, and still had the game downloaded. I uninstalled and reinstalled, of course, but I'm back to where I started, as far as my files go. It wouldn't let me put it into the EQEMU folder. So, I said, have it your way, Everquest!

Could having two different folders be causing my problem? Yeah, that's a newb question to some of the more experienced players out there. But curiosity begs me to ask.

Finally, I can get into the launcher and the log in screen just fine. When I enter my loginserver account name and password it says, "Please Wait... Loading game..." ad-infinitum. Forever, and ever and ever... never logs in. Again, I have to surmise that there being no eqhost.txt file ANYWHERE may be causing some of my problems. Any ideas?
Yeah, I know that's a lot, but I am in desperate need of help here. I've got some serious problems.
I hope I can figure it out or someone here can help. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

The dsetup.dll file just disappears anytime i try copy or extract it to game folder. Its there for a sec then it vanishes.Iv done this a dozen times before not sure what the problem is now. even if i try unzip it to its own folder or just copy the file to either folder it shows up for a second then vanishes ? The original doesn't work for me I get outdated spell files on login, is there anyway to modify the original somehow or is that a complicated process.

Even though this is a FAQ it doesn't belong on the FAQ thread! Your anti-virus software is falsely identifying dsetup.dll as a virus, put an exception in for it (see your manual for how to do that for your anti-virus software)
