Default Fresh EQ install

So I wiped my OS, because it was getting slow and it was easier to do. Put in my fresh install of EQ. I accidentally clicked on everquest.exe, the icon which launches the patcher. I did see that in the install thread it said if you did this it fucks up the game and you will need to reinstall titanium. I have not done that yet so far ...

I did launch the correct icon (launch titanium.bat) and the game launched properly, however it looks like shit, like it is 1980's resolution. I remembered to install wineq2 after this, I did that, restarted my PC. It still looks like shit...

Should I just uninstall all of everquest titanium and then reinstall it as suggested from my original mistake? Any help would be appreciated.

It can't be changed out of the shitty resolution while in game with Alt + O for options. Or changing it in the client.ini file? If its stuck in the 640 x 400 or w/e it may be I probably would go ahead with the re-install. ;(

You can change it once your in game. Then just camp and quit out and reload to make sure it took. The launcher resolution is in the options section of the launcher program. Browse through it you will find it.

I am going to have to reinstall windows again, I believe the install was corrupt because I cannot update windows at all. So that means no directx. I am going with a fresh install of windows 7 from a new download, then install titanium fresh also. Thanks for the help.

Reinstalled windows 7, installed eq and it is working now. Just need to tweak my resolution. I also installed Ubuntu, and I am in the process of getting it to work on that, then bye bye windows.
