Save me!

Clean install of Titanium ... replaced spells_us.txt and spellsnew.eff with the files found here:
http://www.project1999.org/forums/sh...ad.php?t=84589
http://www.project1999.org/files/eqchangesv25.zip


remember to edit your eq hosts.txt to read
[LoginServer]
Host=eqemulator.net:5998

you may have to save the file to your desktop, make changes, and then copy in

set a shortcut for "eqgame.exe", NOT the everquest.exe!! with the tag patchme in shortcut launch, no quotes

example : "C:\Program Files (x86)\Sony\EverQuest\eqgame.exe" patchme

Pretty sure its a firewall/router issue. Can you post screenshots of your router config screen?

I am prone to agree with you. I think it is more likely to be a firewall issue since I looked over his packet dump and there are a lot of mangled packets in it, but he said he disabled the firewall and it still didn't work.

AC888 you might try updating your router firmware if you haven't already done so. I am stumped though. Sorry [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

My Asus M5A97 R2.0 mobo allows me to overclock it with the click of a button through the BIOS. What had happened was I clicked the High Performance button so that it would slightly tweat with the voltages to overclock my CPU by about 300MHz and RAM by about 150MHz. My CPU can be overclocked to a further extend this is just a well known safe setting that Asus has for the clock boost. I never thought it would affect my ability to connect but the issue happened around the same time I did this and it immediately ended after the BIOs settings were returned to default.

If someone could shed light on this then please do tell, but I don't recommended overclocking your CPU even using manufacturer's settings.
