Crash after Server Select

Haven't been able to get past server select in a couple months, used whatever the current patch versions were at the time, and tried again tonight using the new files. Same error always.

I'd like the chance to be able to prevent my mules from being deleted, please and thanks.

wut do?

It may be best (unless you have already tried) to get the P1999 files FRESH and patch with the 50d files. If somehow you have a mixed up directory of new/old it may be difficult to debug where the issue is.

Starting fresh is likely only way to move forward.

That looks like the memory error that can be resolved by following the steps in the FAQ technical sticky.

1. Help! When I try to run eq, at some point before entering the game, I get an error that looks something like this:
The instruction at 0x029110ce referenced memory at 0xfffffffc. The memory could not be read

This solution to this is actually very simple. Go to your EQ folder. Find the file eqclient.ini and open it in a text editor (i use notepad, its the simplest to use)

hit ctrl+f, type windowedwidth, you should see something like this:

WindowedWidth=1280
WindowedHeight=768
Width=1280
Height=768
FullscreenBitsPerPixel=32
FullscreenRefreshRate=0
WidthWindowed=1280
HeightWindowed=768

change it to this:

WindowedWidth=800
WindowedHeight=600
Width=800
Height=600
FullscreenBitsPerPixel=32
FullscreenRefreshRate=0
WidthWindowed=800
HeightWindowed=600

I'm using 800 x 600 here, but you may need to fiddle with that a bit. If 800 x 600 isnt working, try using your monitors native resolution instead. Eventually, you will get a combination that works, just keep trying.
