you must change your eqhost.txt file and make sure to NOT run the everquest patcher. There is two ways around this:

1. Run eqw (eqwindows.com)

2. Run everquest via the patchme method. (Described below)

Click Start, Run, type in the path to you eqgame.exe in your everquest folder and enclose it in quotes, then immediately after the closing quotation mark, you put the word patchme. Like so:

"c:\program files\everquest\eqgame.exe" patchme

Okay i change all the host file. click create a new account and followed the steps but i still get the 0035 invalid kay error. What do i need to do fic this. Plus when i click in the profile it says no login accounts activited yet under the unique key.

Your not following the directions. Your trying to activate a new account on sonys servers, not ours.

I am not understanding something. I change the eqhost.txt file in the sony folder. I go in and use the eq windows i have had downloaded for awhile and point to everquest. what am i doing wrong? When he screen opens up i click new account and follow the instructions? where do i need to go to set up the account. Do i need to have a station account to play

okay I deleted eq from my computer and reinstalled it. I was following the quide on how to play on emu and it said change my datarate.txt file. i do not have a datarate.txt file in the sony folder. I have all the xps thu pop but nothing futher is that hindering me???

Have you played EQ yet? Regular EQ?

I don't think that file is created until EQ actually connects to a server and figures out how fast you can send data to the server.

If you've already played regular EQ and the file's still not there, then I wouldn't worry about it.

i have not played Eq live in a long time.

*shrug*

I'd say just give it a try without a datarate.txt then. EQGame.exe might be able to create it for you anyway.

I don't think that you need it but here's a post I found...

Datarate

Same- Invalid cd key
 

What's the deal with that?
Error 0035-
Invalid account key-
Please check you have typed it in correctly

Just create a datarate.txt file in your EQ folder, it needs to have a single line in it that reads:

8.0

!~?
 

Ok I've set eqemu up just like it told me to do in the how-to, but everytime i click on "new" on the account page i get a message saying wrong version run the patch program to make sure you have the current version. Well i run the the everquest patch, but it never seems to make a difference. So i'm very confused, if i could get some help thank you. :)

As far as the wrong version make sure that when you created the shortcut you put a space and typed patchme where it told you too and also chage your eqhost.

BTW I got it fixed thanks a lot guys gals for the help :)
