Default US MARINE NEEDS ASSIST

Well, after being foiled for HOURS. I finally got this to work...mostly.
Got titanium from a DL place.
the velius version Casey
Virus scan stopped it from working for an hour
( I am not a PC tech type)
I put EQ in the dont scan list..this worries me as it detected 2 trojans

yadda yadda ,finally got into the game
now it says spells out of date and I cant create
"goto p1999 for new patch"
I got new patch,extracted to P1999 folder>YES to all
still not working

As an E-7 Sniper...I dont give up easy.
been 10 hours...I am about to quit. lol
What am I missing?

can some one skype me through this please
THEBOOSTED is me

I have missed EQ for 10+ years, other modern games stink.

Semper Fi
Gunny

** Will play the 1999 non pvp velius.
I hope a few noobs are around to group with
First toon will be
FASTCAR or FASTEVOTURBO if it lets me take

Man, I left years ago ( real eq) with 5 max toons, 100k+plat..starting with nothing again sucks=P

Hey Gy,

did you get it figured out?

If not, what exactly is happening when you start up the launcher?

What operating system are you on?

have you deleted the files that are mentioned in the startup guide? https://www.project1999.com/forums/s...ead.php?t=2651

step 3 is probably the most important making sure you don't patch the game.

make sure you're on version 42 for the files that can be DLed from the same page in step 1.

post here if you are still having troubles and don't forget to google, or search this forum as well, many problems have been faced and solved right here already

my theory:

Look in your P99 folder for a folder named P99Files42. Copy+paste everything from inside that folder to your P99 folder. Slay orcs.

im pretty sure that version DOES have a virus in it, some of the people who play on this server are less than good people. if i were you i would go through a different avenue than this community to set the game up. with your credentials, you have to know someone tech savvy that you could ask who you would trust.

i would like to help.

Dude you are insane. He said he got Platinum from a "DL place". Do you know what one exactly? Did you know EQ Platinum is not specific for p99? Are you really badmouthing the ENTIRE community because you don't know what a false positive is?

If you're this paranoid about malware, and you play on P99, I have some terrible news for you.
