Why doesnt my Shortcut work>
 

Hey guys,

I understand that so many other people have been able to get on this game by follow the instructions, But i have no idea why my shortcut does NOT work! I find the everquest.exe file that the steps tell me to make a shortcut of. I change the Target to "C:\Program Files\Sony\Everquest\eqgame.exe" patchme and for some reason when I hit it, I get this error!

"eqgame.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience."

It is driving me insane and I can not for the life of me figure it out.

Please lend me your suggestions.

Thanks guys!

I'm going under the assumption that your eq files are correctly in the location you specified and you did not miss a folder/do not have a folder in that.

The only thing I can come up with for 10 seconds of thinking is to remove the quotation marks around the path, so that it is just:

C:\Program Files\Sony\Everquest\eqgame.exe patchme

not sure if that will work, or even make a difference atm. But may be worth a shot?

Also: you can try the EQEmu Launcher, it is great for keeping track of downloaded files needed as well as starting up the game.

This does not solve the probelm.

tbh, it sounds like you have a corrupted file. If it was me, Id just reinstall.

I am going to attempt this....any other suggestions?

Are you on vista? Did you put your shortcut in that stupid sliding bar thing that you can put at the top of your screen, or did you put it actually on your desktop?

Ok. I tried installing and it did not work. Why am I the only one who suffers from this??
