patch 50f

[Praxcthius]

is this patch compatible with blue? had to turn off my dynamic lighting yesterday to be able to raid. was entirely too laggy with it as true vs false in the setting.
also had someone say to make a different file for green. if this is necessary how can this be accomplished. thanks in advance

Partially. You can use the same files on both provided you switch out the spells file and possibly the .dll every time (use 50d versions for blue, 50f versions for green).

Copy blue install folder -> rename to something else -> install green files on new folder. When you want to play green launch from that folder, launch blue from the blue folder

I understand that for now you have to keep swapping the downloads (50d & 50f) depending on blue or green server. But...the night darkness is still there on blue. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] How do you turn the darkness off on blue? And will this be somehow compatible for both one day? Darkness on for green...off for blue?

You'd have to go back to your Titanium disks and re-copy the original files that the darkness patch replaced out of the RenderEffects folder.

so best thing to do in this scenario without going to dynamiclighting/false vs true each time I want to test green is to copy entire titanium install and have one named for blue and one for green. and install 50f into green folder. sorry would have had this conversation earlier but family health issues arose. thanks for the amount of responses.

my next question is how do I differentiate the .exe to start game in green so it doesn't start blue.

[Praxcthius]

yeah since making new desktop icon for launching after patching 50f into new folder I get can't find eqgame etc.

[kylok]

Make a copy of the blue launch icon and edit the path (right click -> properties) to match the green install location (C:\Program Files\Sony\Green99\eqgame.exe) leave the patchme at the end if it's there

[Praxcthius]

Ok I did this but when I click the icon for launch (and I put in new file as destination) it says cannot find eqgame.exe
