WinEQ2

[Grandbeard]

I registered and installed. The program loads into the task bar but when I try to run Everquest it crashes. If I run everquest without the program, it just says connecting... then gives a fail.

There is a "paid" version and a free version, dunno why you are getting stuck with the subscription based one. Maybe he now requires you make any account even to use the free side of it?

If you want to get rid of the border at the top of the window use https://github.com/Codeusa/Borderless-Gaming

I'd like to take a moment to mention what an amazing piece of software this is. I was having a lot of issues playing lately. My graphics were fine in a lot of situations, but certain situations really gave me some intermittent graphics lag. If the zone was complex or there was a lot of people there, it was like EQ would stall for 0.05 seconds every half second - it was annoying as fuck. It caused me to like overturn and jump around and move erratically.

WINEQ2 FIXED THIS FOR ME

Today I had a 1v1 with another warrior in KC while 70+ people were sitting there - COMPLETELY SMOOTH

I had tried WinEQ2 a couple years ago and didn't like it because of the CPU Affinity option that affects how levitate functions (couldn't lev trick, couldn't swim out of water with lev and run above it). I simply disabled the CPU Affinity option (which was never an issue for me) and it works great.

I cannot tell you how THRILLED I am to be able to play EQ smoothly once more and actually fight people. I'm looking forward to some bard kites too!

If you're on a borderline PC like me and experiencing any of the issues I've described, give WinEQ2 a try!

I have exactly this issues and it is TERRIBLE for me. I am going to try this wineq2 when I get home. Thank you for your post.

There is nothing wrong with my system either, stats below:

AMD 8350
16GB 1600
NVidea 660 2GB
2x SDDs

Follow up...

I downloaded, installed and ran it.

Verdict:

It fixed my issues, HOWEVER! Right before I logged I still had 2 chops. But for the most part of playing for 2 hours it didn't chop at all.

Thanks again!

Ugh....follow up today.

Last night I had major chop issues. STILL not as bad as before but it did NOT fix my issue.

I do have an AMD 8350FX processor. It is clocked at 4GHz (no over clocking). Maybe this is the issue.

On my laptop I have NO chops at all. That is running an Intel I7 4510.

Oh well...more troubleshooting for me.

I just came here to post that I have this issue too. I followed the setup guide and also watched the YouTube videos here ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oeos1MUDjeE )

Anyone come across this or know how to resolve it? I'm on Windows 10 with a virtual machine.

Can someone post a screenshot of how they configured it? I don't see a way to point it to a shortcut that contains the patchme argument.
