I am having issues initializing this, after I select server and hit "play everquest" the window goes black and freezes. Any ideas?
WELL I ran it in compatibility mode for windows 7, instead of windows xp service pack 3, and i at least got to see it load with EQ music, then it crashed 2 seconds later.

two fixes i had to do to get the game to work, you may want to try it if you are still having problems. and to the bluejam i have 8gigs of ram and still get the you dont have enough memory for mroe then 2 models msg. So i can only pick 2 modles as well.

now to the fixes i know they may seem obvious but it was what was messing me up. make sure you have the file in your "C" drive C:/EQMac not anywhere else not sure why but its a problem, 2nd make sure you have anti virus off as it does cause a problem while installing.

hope those 2 help.

That's a good point. I probably did not do it in order, seeing if that works now.

Nope doesn't work, trying a clean install will repeat steps.

Did the same on my main machine. No difference.

Installed it on my 9 year old laptop running WinXP SP2 (figure it's hardware related), can actually see the loading screen, music playing, bar fills up, "You have been disconnected" screen pops up instead of char select. I'm going crazy.

What graphics card/cpu are you using?

Nvidia 8800 GT and Intel Core Duo E8200.

Yes.

3. Download the new Intel EQMac Client located here: LaunchPad 3
4. When the new EQMac client is fully patched, find the folder (default location is C:\Users\Public\Sony Online Entertainment\EverQuest Mac or C:\Users\Default\AppData\Sony Online Entertainment\EverQuest Mac)
Does this mean you have to run some patch option before copying over the "Resources" folder? Cus I only ran that browser launchpad and it downloaded 1.9gb of files resulting in the Mac EQ folder under users/blah blah.



Turning off sound on my laptop crashes the game after server select identical to my main pc issue.

I'm getting to the same spot on a Windows 64bit PC Bluejam. I'm not sure what else to try.

Is everyone seeing 2 down eqmac servers and 2 up AlKabor servers?
