I think I solved two problems in one.


I originally wanted to just increase my mouse sensitivity but it also fixed that slow look speed at the same time.

no need for a fps limiter or anything.


if you open up your eqclient.ini and search for the line

MousePointerSpeedMod=0

change it to 2

only options appear to be 0, 2, or higher.. but 2 is more than enough.. setting it to 1 does nothing.


fast mouse.. fast look.. much better

Okay, so I did a fresh install, it's in c:\EQMac, exceptions are set in the firewall (I have tried it with the firewall off as well) and anti virus and running eqw as admin.

I tried loading first with my eqclient from install and after the server select I got the splash screen, heard the music and then got the same error message.

I went through your post with the eqclient changes and adjusted mine. Now I'm back to getting just a black screen after trying to load the server. As soon as I go to another window, it goes to not responding. If I just sit there at that window, nothing happens.

It's almost like something I changed in there fixed the error, but something else is preventing it from loading to char select/creation.

I'm really at a loss here =/

Okay I adjusted my video mode further and am now back to the crashing error as shown.

What else may be doing that? Firewall and antivirus are off for the moment, running eqw as admin and fix eqclient checked.

It could be many things.. I'd suggest turning off all your malware / antivirus programs / Online chat programs like AIM temporarily (and don't browse any websites or download anything) then try to get onto eqmac and see if you have a problem.


you could try turning off your page file in virtual memory (maybe some sort of latency problem?)


or just popping out a memory stick if you have more than one and seeing if its an issue between the memory sticks themselves.. (sometimes using 2 different types causes problems)


It's most likely some program you have running is conflicting with the eqw

Getting the same error, have been trying to play EQMac for some time and I can never get past the loading screen. No firewalls or Anti Virus, I've got it at C:/EQMac, I've done every downloaded, checked the fix unchecked the fix edited my eqclient. I've tried everything and I can't get it to work, any help would be extremely appreciated.

Fix it by setting your resolution to 640x480 before logging in.

or open up your eqini file and manually set the resolution there to your desktop resolution. I think there are two ini files you need to fix. eqclient.ini and the one in the secrets patch.

amd/intel? ati/nvidia? have you checked your process tree to see what is actually running?

I'm currently running win 7 on an intel core 2 duo 3ghz, 2g ram, nvidia geforce 8800gt 512mb video card.

I'm going to try shutting everything off, checking the process tree and launching again. I'm 99% sure all my ram is the same brand/size etc but I will double check that if all else fails.
