- - Do not patch! (https://www.eqemulator.org/forums/showthread.php?t=13097)

Asking for Everquest files is strictly prohibited on these forums, read the rules before you post!!

EQEMulator Forum Rules

Code:

1) No Warez (No Discussion or Providing of Warez). Warez is any file that has been obtained without purchase from the company or a "legit" vendor, or without the sole permission of the owner, or company is considered illegal and is not permitted on these forums. This also includes all EQ files and also means do NOT ask, give out, host, or in some other way promote the giving out of these files. This includes but is not limited to: The EQ Patcher, eqgame.exe, eqmain.dll, spdat.eff, cshome.s3d, cshome_chr.s3d, or ANY file downloaded with the Verant EQ Patcher (aka Everquest.exe) with the exeption of files that can be re-created within 10 seconds by hand (this means eqhost.txt is okay). 



*NOTE* Downloading the EQ Files off the Sony FTP Site is not a legal question to ask here. That is if you are buying their service, not to play here. Giving out this link will get your thread erased.

I dont have room to backup my whole EQ folder....but if i wanted to backup to revert to a previous version which files would i backup? thanks

Everything except for screenshots.

Next question please...

The big ones to backup are anything that ends with .EXE or .DLL. However, with patches, just about anything's fair game. :(

can people who patched stop asking for files or ETAs and packet collect? If more packet collecting would be done the devs would have more information to make a better emu. I patched and i know i will be packet collecting later tonight.

patch is fixed... play on test server or download CVS > 4-16-04 10:00pm EST

ok good lol, because i was stupid enough to patch after reading this whole thing :D

DO you mean patch to the Test server and then we can play EQEmu again? I hope that's what you're saying. I tried it though, and my client keeps crashing before I can get to the character selection screen.

idiot, he means get the latest patch for normal eq so you can test it on shawns server.....

by the way great job on the speady release devs, i suppose changes weren't too big?

YOu don't have to call people names, it sounded like he said EQEmu was fixed. It's not like I've been flaming the boards telling the devs to hurry up.

Ive seen nothing yet about if its ok to patch today . anyone know if its safe?

Somebody in the Emu thread was reporting problems after patching today. I'd say no.

It looks like a patch today may have messed some stuff up... If in doubt, make a back up and patch. You can always use your back up if it messes things up... :D

It is NOT safe to patch today if you want to use eqemu. You have been warned.
