I am not running an extra antivirus that I know of other than windows defender.
I had disabled it completely and reinstalled titanium in my C drive games file and the patch zip before unzipping and applying it again and then adding the patchme to the launch titanium desktop icon and even added antivirus exclusions for the launcher and eqgame.exe so that windows defender wouldn't interfere... the characters I made won't show up and I keep getting the client not supported character in the login...

I can't seem to send you messages either. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Maybe check your profile? maybe you can enable it now or something. I'm not sure what the cool down is for new accounts.

Lets try this first. Should solve the issue with the missing dll above.

Go to
https://www.dll-files.com/download/2...BSSEZEdWF0Zz09

download that dll.

then extract that into one of these locations:

C:\Windows\System32 - For windows 64 bit. Most likely this location.
or
C:\Windows\SysWOW64\ - 32 bit Windows Installations

let me know if that makes a difference. I would suggest doing a system restart after placing it here.

Just to clarify - you're attempting to connect to one of the (3) Project1999 servers with this client and not one of the (79) others, right?

Can you please attach a screenshot of the error you're seeing? You mentioned the missing file, but are able to see character select?

lol I may be a victim of my own stupidity. I was trying to play on EQ might. Blue, green and red are working fine.
Trouble shooting using AI and it didn't tell me that you can only play on blue, green and red.
It just kept telling me that you can't connect to the p99 servers if the wsock32.dll isn't present.
do I still need to download the dll file and put it in my C:\Windows\System32 like Lambparade said?
what are the other servers and how do you play on them?

Again, thank you everyone lol I have to be honest I'm getting back into computers for the first time since like 2008 so I'm not exactly the best at all this.

My dad, his friends and I used to play original EQ back when it was released up until like 2004, but I was pretty little back then and probably never leveled past maybe lvl 25.
If Theres any old heads here, you might remember an Elf cleric named Nads Dangle, that was my father's main character and Dad lived on Ever Quest for years.
I'm super exited to play again this means a lot to me seriously lol

Ahh, glad you got it sorted. It sounded likely based on your description. For the other servers, you'll have to read their descriptions and they'll tell you what client they require. Your screenshot shows it wants the RoF2 client (I believe). A lot of them have details at:

Good luck!
