up and running now, big thanks to everyone in this thread, the Spell File Outdated Issue/dsetup.dll resolution, and Ruien's Guide to EQ under Linux.

I am totally new to project 99 as of this week, but I was an EQ player back in the day. I am now running on Linux Mint 17.2. it took a little bit to find a good install of EQ Titanium, and then I had to copy the .ini file to get the EQ play window to become visible. Then when I was finally able to log in I was getting the "spells file out of date" error in the char select screen. Turned out to be the case of the dsetup.dll file name that was the issue. I deleted the one that came with EQ and pasted in the one from p99v40. All is well now.

Thanks to everyone who has commented on this thread and major thanks to the original poster. I am very excited to play classic EQ again. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
