Does anyone have a solution for this error that I'm receiving? I want to play this game on my Mac so badly. Here's what I've done:

1.) Downloaded/installed the most recent version of Parallels
2.) Installed Windows 11
3.) Downloaded EQ via the link in this Youtube guide: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mj_MMVgJ_Dk (step 2) and added it to my shared desktop
4.) Created the "Patchme" shortcut
5.) Configured EQgame to run as administrator, operate in XP service pack 2, and safe emulation.

Every time I try to join the server, I get this error message. I feel like I'm SO close!

"Unable to load World

EverQuest cannot load the zone file \"load_obj.s3d\" in the directory that you are currently running EverQuest from. The file is present but it may be corrupt."

I've tried uninstalling, reinstalling, and patching. Thanks in advance!

Hello everyone,

i am having the same problem. I was fighting for hours to get this far. It's a nightmare to play on a Mac...

I used to play P1999 a couple of years ago on a windows machine... that was no problem at all.

Were you able to find a workaround for this?

There currently is no "WINE" workaround if you are on Catalina or newer. Only option is something like Parallels. This is what im using, as virtualbox/vmware did not allow me to adjust the mouse the way I would like. If you are on an older mac, you can run eq via wine just fine.
