My main questions is about the eqclient.ini file. I already have a eqclient.ini file do I just replace the current file with the eqclient.ini that is posted in the instructions? I have followed the instructions to a T 3 different times and still can not get the game to launch. Anyone have any advice?

and in the instructions when it says "extract files" from the downloaded files into your new p99 files. Do I just drag and drop or do I need to download a program to extract the p99 files to replace the old p99 files?

If you have a working eqclient.ini you can use that.

Dragging and dropping is fine to copy the files over. But don't drag and drop folders; the contents of the destination folder will be removed and replaced with what you dragged. P99 updates only include the new files, so you have to make sure those are updated without losing any of the existing files.

After you have it setup, you can launch it by opening the app you extracted into your Applications folder (i.e., Avatar's wine wrapper that you downloaded from http://www.mediafire.com/?ltz58wddkaf30eh). Is that not working for you? What happens? Any error messages?

The project 1999 icon pops up on my doc and the app just freezes, no error menus, just nothing happens besides that app showing up on the dock. BTW just want to thank you for helping me phobus!

Take a look at ForeverLost's post at the top of the page. Sounds like you are having the same symptoms. Is your eqclient.ini named correctly?

Just tried this out on my 2012 15" macbook pro w/ retina

Works fine once I update the wine engine/wrapper

Looks like shit due to scaling, but works :P

Thanks!
