Resources\GlobalLoad.txt doest not match error

[nilbog]

If your eq installation is in program files, move it to root C:\

Then browse to your c:\everquest\resources, and replace globalload.txt with the one from the patch zip.

Note: you can just cut and paste the everquest folder, there is no need for reinstallation

It was in in the program files directory. I moved the entire EQ folder over to the root c:\ drive. I then re-downloaded the zip file from today and overwrote the globalload.txt file with the one from the zip.
Still giving me the same error.

I even tried deleting the globalload.txt file and transfering in the new (while in c:\) and still the same error. I'm really at a loss - been trying to get it working for 3 hours now. Before today's patch everything worked fine on my end for years (4+)

Thanks nilbog, that worked for me. I also figured out what was wrong with the other location.

KentalCowtipper, my problem was that there was a copy of globalload.txt in the virtualmachine that wasn't updating (here is my user path):

C:\Users\user\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files (x86)\Sony\EverQuest\

A friend pointed this location out when I was trying to recover my UI files. Update this entire location with the V39 files. I updated that and my original install path worked.

Hopefully, this will fix your issue.

Cheers! Updating the VirtualStore files fixed the issue for me.

Does anyone know why the files get duplicated in this location?

If a program doesn't have write access to the Program Files folder, it goes there.

Hi Mimic. Thanks for trying to help me with this.
I did a query on windows for VirtualStore, VirtualMachine and others. I don't have a c:\users\user\appdata sub folders.

Nilbog any chance you want to make a quick 20 bucks? I'd pay ya if you can get this fixed. Could remote access in lol

I had to enable 'show hidden files'. to see the appdata stuff. Here's how for windows 7:

http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/w...iles=windows-7

also, your 'user' may not be entitled 'user'. So if appdata doesn't show up when you show hidden files, check the 'user' title that you login with under the 'c:\users\name\appdata.

When I enable show hidden files there is now a folder for my user with appdata now available. Under virtualmachine there is a file for Sony/resources but in that resources file there was no globalload.txt file. I moved a copy from the zip download to that folder and I'm still getting the same error.
