Thank you! I had success, and I have had a blast...then came the patch...I haven't learned exactly what to do with the zip file. Working on it.

Make sure you copy the patched files themselves from the zip folder to the relevant directories in your EQ folder. Meaning, don't just copy and paste the entire folder and overwrite the one in your EQ folder...some patches only overwrite certain files within those folders and not all of them, so if you just copy and paste the folders from the zip you will lose things and have to reinstall.

That is what I did (in my ignorance). Thank you. I will keep trying to piece it together right.[You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
