I've seen this issue before but I can't recall the exact fix. That said, I did recently re-do my setup on Debian and its working fine.

Hopefully we can get you going with some more information. Can you post some of the following stuff?

Output of command "lspci -nnk"
Wine version
What dll overrides are configured, if any (this is in the winecfg menu)
In a terminal, cd to your P99 game folder, and truncate the dbg.txt file (cat /dev/null > Logs/dbg.txt), do a fresh start of P99 and load all the way into the world. Logout and post that file

wine version is 7.0
feel reluctant to post -nnk due to sharing too much personal system info, any specific info you want (drivers card etc) you need?
not sure how to show if i have any dll overrides? screenshot maybe?
here's the logs of the dbg for you https://pastebin.com/uqGYnPkt

Was mainly curious about what the video device is on your system.

For the dll overrides, this is in the "winecfg" menu.

from what i can see all of the dll's are (native,builtin) outside of atiadlxx and nvcuda which are (??)
i looked into wine and apparently theres a 32 bit version. perhaps i should uninstall my version of wine and download the 32 bit one? i dunno if that will help.

PS apologies that i don't reply sooner, i don't have much time to sit down and try and troublefix.

Oh! Yes, you should be using the 32 bit version of wine. Here is what I would recommend doing:

• Install 32bit wine
• Find out what packages you are using for video drivers and install the 32bit version of that as well
• Setup your wine32 prefix. You can do so in a terminal with a command like the following: WINEPREFIX="$HOME/wine32" WINEARCH=win32 winecfg
• Copy your P99 everquest directory to $HOME/wine32/drive_c/Program\ Files/, or your preferred path within the WINEPREFIX.
• I would then try to launch the game from a terminal. cd to the path within your 32bit WINEPREFIX where the EQ directory resides. Once there, P99 should be able to launch with this command: WINEPREFIX="$HOME/wine32" WINEARCH=win32 wine eqgame.exe patchme

Edit: The 32bit versions of these packages (video drivers, wine) should have no problem being installed alongside the 64bit versions, so don't feel like you need to remove a bunch of things, especially the 64bit video drivers

is anyone on the forum still able to help? i still have this problem.
