Unable to load EQGraphicsDX9.DLL (998) - M1 Mac

[simu]

Hi all,

I was able to get P99 running on a windows computer several years ago. Now I'm trying to follow this guide to get it working with Crossover on Mac: https://www.project1999.com/forums/s...&postcount=802

I'm not sure if this guide is outdated, but I followed it. I ran the patcher, installed
Game Porting Toolkit 2.1, and replaced the files with V62 patch.

However, I'm getting this in dbg.txt:
2025-11-17 22:39:44 Starting EverQuest (Build Oct 31 2005 10:33:37)

The window itself shows can't attach process error 5

I've attempted installing changing settings in dgvoodoo inside of the bottle. When switching graphics to D3DMetal I got a prompt for an NVidia card, which got far enough to create the actual eqclient.ini. I modified the ini files with the recommended from the tutorial, but same result.


Is there a more current tutorial for getting M architecture macs running?
