EQEmuLauncher downtime

[Rumzuck]

Hey guys,

the eqemulauncher is currently down, i deactivated it due to the constant DDoS attacks that really piss me off. I will come up with a solution soon, but for now, p99 players will have to update manually. Most other servers are using the new beta version of the launcher, which will continue to work just fine...

I'm sorry that you guys have to "pay" for the scriptkiddies fault.

To keep up to date what happens, you may want to like the facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/eqemulauncher

Greetings,
Moe

PS: You can start EverQuest manually with rightclicking the launcher and click Start EverQuest

Is this what you're talking about? I can't connect

[Rumzuck]

yes, you have to patch manually and start everquest manually (you can rightclick the launcher and press Start EverQuest)

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 http://www.project1999.org/files/eqchangesv29.zip (if this post is out of date, just update "29" with the current number)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.

Click here to get the latest patcher. They released a beta version earlier this month, and if you download that one, it updates to the latest non-beta version 1.81. No more issues!

actually version 1.81 is also beta, and project1999 isnt supported yet in the beta version (basically any version above 1.24)

as soon as the new version is no longer beta, the old launcher will automatically update to the new version =)
