I keep a fresh clean copy of the game in a file I don't use to play. I did this, because it was faster than re-installing the "discs".

When I was having similar issues, "re-installing" the game fixed it.

By re-installing, I copied the clean file to another new folder and then redirected my EQEmuLauncher to the new folder. I leave the clean file alone in case I have to do it again. I've only had to do this twice, and now have not had any issue with my characters or the error.

When I did the re-install, I lost my UI which is kind of a pain to recreate over and over. I have since copied my working UI to another spot on my pc so I can easily pop it in if I need a re-install again.

Remember - only your UI is on your computer. Your character and all your stuff is server side.

The UI data is called:

yourcharacternamehere_project1999.ini
UI_yourcharacternamehere_project1999.ini

(easily found by searching your character name)

I am not certain what is happening, but since a re-install fixed it, I have to imagine a file is becoming corrupt at some point.

I can't guarantee this will help you, but it solved my problem and I have been playing!
