Default spells files out of date, HELP! respond quickly I wanna play tonight lol

When I logged into eq for the first time in many months it said my spells files were out of date. I went to the getting started page and downloaded the new P99Files43.zip and extracted it to my Everquest Titanium directory and replaced all the stuff and I started eq up again aaaand same problem. So now I go do this again but first deleting dbstr_us.txt and spells_us.txt because I read somewhere on a reddit forum that it fixes it but still no luck. Can someone tell me if i'm even doing this right or help me through it please?

download them again and be sure you're overwriting old files and extracting them in the right directory.

Also, occasionally if your connection is being choked by some bastard watching Netflix in the next room or streaming a HD movie it can cause a few issues with the character select screen.

Never heard of deleting those files, put them back and only delete them if the downloaded zip files want to overwrite it.

make sure you delete the files listed in the project 1999 installation guide, like nektulos.eqg
