Game not launching
Up until this morning, I have been successfully running the game from the EQEmu launcher fine.
This morning (and after several subsequent attempts over the past 5 hours), this is my experience: 1) Run EQEmu Launcher (as administrator - Windows 7) Returns following: EQEmuLauncher - V1.24 http://moestaverne.com An unofficial EQEmulator Launcher Loading config... Checking for updates Loading serverlist ... Version 1.24 is up to date! 60 servers found. 2) Select Project 1999 Returns following: Checking for permissions...

The launcher minimizes, and a small black square appears in the top-left of my screen, and nothing happens. Between last night and this morning, I have changed nothing. I don't know what is causing this error? |

I always use the cpu fixed shortcut, i dont use the launcher, launcher never worke on my computer for some reason always had to go the old fashioned way, sorta ******-rigged

Follow lyra's copy/pasted instructions of falkuns instructions and you should be fine.
Please get back to us if that doesn't work. And yeah, bypassing the launcher i s the way to go, ive never used it. |
seems like your eqclient.ini got modified / damaged ... since the launcher starts, patches, and starts EQ fine ... so its a EQ related problem, nothing to do with the launcher ... but you can bypass it anyway like lyra linked so you can see it your self ...

oh yeah should maybe post the possible fix too :P
check your eqclient.ini for Quote:

If I don't delete my Bootcamp partition, I just might try that. My fix abandoned Windows altogether. Installing via Wineskin works perfectly using the following two sets of instructions:
Using the wine wrapper provided in Whuke's post: http://www.project1999.org/forums/sh...&postcount=195 and following Phobus' guide: http://www.project1999.org/forums/sh...7&postcount=37. Phobus' guide is perfect with the exception of the wine wrapper (likely out of date). As a side note, it does not use the launcher either. Perhaps that is part of my success. |
all the lauchner does is patch files, then lauch everquest exactly the way it launches when you doubleclick your "patchme" link on your desktop ;) nothing more
