We can't do anything to distribute old patches. If you don't have the files, you don't have the files.

For seeing what works with what, theres my EQVerCheck (which I'm in the process of updating but its hard to get people that know their patch dates to give me what SEQ numbers they have :/ ) that could tell you if your live patch works with a version of EQEMu.

C++ is wonderful.

Thanks for your input guys. My point wasn't really related to distributing old patches... what I'm suggesting is a way to protect people from upgrading beyond the point where EqEmu works. I'll take a look at EqVer though

Nice idea !!
Perhaps a program who start Eqgame.exe (with changed eqhost.txt)
and start everquest.Exe (patcher) only when eqemu is live compatible ?
I don't know how make that , but if all newb coming, have this starting program, we can see less idiot questions ?

Yes but if this program is use for start client,
the program can say "Ohhh ! no your client isn't compatible with eqemu with a big text explain eqemu forum rules" and newb don't say anymore : "i don't know why i have 1017 or have any patch ?". Ahhh be peace
