have you read the FAQ lately? no? that's what i thought.

He WROTE the FAQ and he updates it frequently.

You on the other hand, posted for help and became a smart ass very quickly.

Gotrocks, remove the link and actually post his instructions since people can't figure out where to find the spell files. He did modify his instructions to include

As of this post, we are on v28, found . http://www.project1999.org/files/eqchangesv28.zip if this post is out of date, just update "28" with the current number)

Here is the newest:

1) Default install of EQ: Titanium (other clients will NOT work). Copy/pasting the EQ folder from another install works just fine here. (For consistency, I'm going to assume you installed EQ to C:\Everquest so that the eqgame.exe path is C:\Everquest\eqgame.exe.)
2) Right-click on the eqgame.exe icon within your everquest folder, select Create Shortcut.
3) Right-click on the Shortcut to eqgame.exe you created in step (2). Select Properties.
4) In the Properties menu that appears, edit the target line to say
"C:\EverQuest\eqgame.exe" patchme. The quotes are only needed around the destination string if it contains spaces. Select Apply and then OK to close the properties box.
5) Open the C:\Everquest\eqhost.txt file in the text editor of your choice.
6) Delete whatever is in the eqhost.txt file and replace it with the following two lines:
[LoginServer]
Host=login.eqemulator.net:5998
7) Save and close the eqhost.txt file.
8) Download the latest eqchangesvXX.zip file from the patch notes. As of this post, we are on v29, found . http://www.project1999.org/files/eqchangesv29.zip (if this post is out of date, just update "29" with the current number)
9) Extract the eqchangesvXX.zip file into the C:\Everquest directory, overwriting any files it asks for.
10) Within the C:\Everquest directory, delete the following files to allow these updated zones to function properly on P99:
arena.eqg
arena_EnvironmentEmitters.txt
lavastorm.eqg
nektulos.eqg
Nektulos_EnvironmentEmitters.txt
11) Log into the server with the account you created at EQEmulator.org.
12) Select Project1999: The Ruins of Kunark from the server list.
13) Enjoy playing on P99.

it explicitly states to use the patcher. it no longer contains a link directly to the most recent files.

sorry, you're wrong.

maybe if you took the time to be helpful instead of just bashing random users on the forum...

o you mean this FAQ? You know, the one sticked on the tech boards that I wrote and maintain. Naw bud, haven't read it in a while... hmm, update log says 10/13/13. Was a long time ago.


*EDIT*

lyra ty hun, didn't read your post til after i posted this =P



And again, everyone, there's no problem with the loginserver. There is a problem with the EMULAUNCHER's webserver. Two different and completely unrelated things.

Nilbog, WTB less stickied threads on front page of tech support so people like samoht can find help when they're feeling lonely.

maybe you missed all of his insulting and passive aggressive posts. i don't understand why people would look past his posts and yet call other people names when they point out just how much of a self-centered asshole he is.

That's insulting and passive aggressive?

samoht, i'd like for you to come contribute to the tech boards for a year, answer the same question 100 times, and then tell me if you don't get 'insulting' every once in a while.

do more for the community, whine less. thx [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

You don't understand, because you don't read this section of the board everyday.

If he was really self-centered, he wouldn't be responding at all. There are plenty of "experts" on this board that gave up helping a LONG time ago. You're biting the hand that feeds you.

He is the most knowledgeable frequent respond-er we have, and the rest of us would appreciate it if you back the fuck off.

The information given was already read and applied while I remained having issues. It's fixed now (after eqemu was finished being ddoss) besides my client not responding every other time I zone.
