If you use any version of windows after XP, I would suggest that you don't install Everquest into your Program Files folder (heck, don't ever do that on any version of Windows!).

Follow the guide here, up to and including part 2.5:

Quote:
2.5 Optional WinEQ

Many users experience problems with proper CPU/Core Utilization or crashing which can be fixed by using WinEQ2. You can download this program from Lavishsoft.
Now you should have a working copy of Project1999 with the latest spells_us.txt and dbstr_us.txt files in your Everquest folder, along with the right zone files. Now you need to make the UI work correctly for this Emulator. There are two versions of the UI supplied with Titanium - default (which is the filigree/fancy version) and default_old (which is the old default) and I'm going to supply updates for both versions. I'm also going to go over the Velious UI in the next post down.

Having a correctly working default UI is essential for basing any and all UI's from.

1. Default - Download the FULL UI >>>here<<< and unzip into your Everquest\uifiles\default folder overwriting all files. This will make sure you have a fresh 'default'. Next download the Project1999 UI updates to make it compatible for this server from >>>here<<< and again, unzip into your Everquest\uifiles\default folder overwriting all files. When you load up Everquest your UI should look like this:

1a. (Optional) If you would like to have the default UI but with the Velious style spell icons from post 2 below you will need to do the above and then download this file >>>here<<<. Make a new folder called 'default_gems' in your Everquest\uifiles folder and unzip the contents of the file into it. Then in game type /loadskin default_gems to see the changes. Please remember that these files have a unique sized set of icons and are really a mod unto themselves.

2. Default_old - Download the FULL UI >>>here<<< and unzip into your Everquest\uifiles\default_old folder overwriting all files. This will make sure you have a fresh 'default_old'. Next download the Project1999 UI updates to make it compatible for this server from >>>here<<< and again, unzip into your Everquest\uifiles\default_old folder overwriting all files. When you load up Everquest, type /loadskin default_old and your UI should look like this:

Now you should have a working default and/or default_old UI!

If you wish you can replace the supplied icons with any of the following versions (just unzip to the UI folder of choice listed above):

a. Titanium - Download >>>square<<< or >>>rounded<<< icons. These are the same icons supplied in the default UI changes above.

b. Luclin - Download >>>square<<< or >>>rounded<<< icons. These are the same icons supplied in the default_old UI changes above.

c. WoW - Download >>>square<<< or >>>rounded<<< icons. These are the icons I use in my Project99 Vert UI.

d. T.King - Download >>>square<<< or >>>rounded<<< icons.

e. Etasi - Download >>>square<<< or >>>rounded<<< icons.

f. Classic - Download >>>square<<< or >>>rounded<<< icons.
