It runs now, but it's just a blank command prompt. I left it running and tried logging into everquest, but I have the same empty server list as before.

Yeah this happens all the time because the login server process has no dropped packet protection.

Usually you just reboot and wait. For me personally it takes a couple of minutes, once it took like half an hour.

As you can see this is a common issue:

Good luck on finding your solution, hopefully it's just some more waiting.

Unfortunately, waiting doesn't seem to fix it. I tried waiting several hours and even a day. Same result. If the issue isn't somehow on my end, I hope it gets fixed so everyone can enjoy the game.

did you happen to read the part about changing your eqhosts?
it's on the website for the program

EQEmu Login Helper

Clientside workaround for the lack of out-of-order packet handling in the public EQEmu loginserver.
Usage

Change the Host eqhost.txt to localhost:5998 or localhost:5999
Start eqemu-login-helper and keep it running in the background
Login as normal

[xaix1999]

after this you will always need to run the login helper to login

I did make that change. I launched the program, allowed it through my firewall, and launched EQ. Same blank server list. The program is just a command prompt with no text, just blank. Is that how it's meant to look?

[xaix1999]

sometimes I've noticed it can take 30 seconds to fix the server list for me
if it's still blank i just exit and login again after waiting 10 seconds

[xaix1999]

be patient

[xaix1999]

good plan, run the program and don't close it
then get a drink or snack to prepare yourself
i enjoy a cup of coffee

Sadly after waiting between launching and running multiple times, it still shows up blank. Thank you for trying so hard to help me. I wish it would work. This issue started up only recently. It has worked perfectly before.

what did you change your eqhost to?
