EQmac Saved - Now FREE to play!

[Alelo]

Hmm, I tried getting on this server but I keep getting disconnected after choosing Al'Kabor.

I did the following:

-Fresh install of EQ Titanium
-Copied every file from that fresh install into a new folder named EQMac right on my C: drive.
-Downloaded and unzipped Secrets' patch, overwriting everything.
-Downloaded EQMac from https://launch.soe.com/lp3/index.html?game=eqmac
-Copied everything in the Resource folder from that client into my EQMac folder (not the Resource folder inside the EQMac, but rather, into EQMac itself)

Well, I tried this out. Mouselook along x axis is insanely slow. You can't use eqplaynice or wineq as they cause a memory error. None of the 3rd person views are usable for me, and with it possibly being patched out, frankly, just too much hassle and control issues for me to deal with. Ah well.

OK since i really have no other games to play I messed with the camera a bit. Basically if you want a 3rd person camera that follows your character when you turn etc (you have to keyboard turn), go to the second view with f9 that camera turns when you turn, then use alt 3 and 9 on numpad to set angle, and alt 1 and 7 on numpad to set distance from character and should be able to get a decent view. Sucks that you can't really use mouselook but, shrug. Just figured I'd mention this.

Just a bit more, 2nd camera that moves when you turn with f9, get a good distance for you from your char, invert Y axis on mouse and max mouse sensitivity and you can mouselook decently also. It's a little jumpy but not too shabby.

Nother edit. I didn't like not being able to zoom in out with mouse, so I wrote a script to do this and figured I'd post it. Source is in the zip if you want to look/change it. Basically hooks the mouse wheel, and sends 1 or 7 numpad 8x per tick of scroll wheel. Alt Home pauses it and returns scroll to normal function. Just right click icon in system tray and select exit to exit it.

I'm getting to the login screen and when I try to log on I get "Error 0009: Login server did not respond/ \nPlease try again.\n. I tried reinstalling with avast shut off but I'm still getting the same error, any ideas?

Make sure you don't use any weird special characters on password creation. QWERTZ <-> QWERTY made me go crazy [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I bet that's it, I forgot my password for the station can't have my usual * in it and I think I was trying to log in with it still in there. Will try when I get home, thanks.

Edit: Yep! Got it working. Now I gotta figure out eqwin, I'd prefer not to use it but I guess we have to.

I just did a fresh install following Vallhalla's steps. Trying to log in I get the 0009 error and have a password with just numbers and alphabet characters. Is anyone else getting this? Was the windows log in disabled or am I missing something?

I am getting this as well now. This morning I could log in without issue. Hopefully they didn't patch this exploit.

Looks like others can't log in over at eqmac.com
