I have finally gotten a hold of the RoF2 client. 'Twas an absolute pain in the ass to do, however.
What I need people to do now, is download the Steam Everquest client by doing the following:
Code:
If Everquest is already present in your Steam library: Right-click -> Delete Local Content
Go to the Steam store
Type in "Everquest"
Add the game to Steam. No need to purchase the DLC.
Go to the Steam library
Right-click the Everquest entry -> Properties
Click the "Updates" tab
Under "Automatic Updates", choose "Only update this game when I launch it."
Click "Close"
Wait for the download to finish.
!!DO NOT LAUNCH EVERQUEST!!
Once the download has finished, use the Folder2Iso program to create an iso out of the folder. The steps to do so, are listed on the first post. Name it "EverquestSteam.iso"
Get Quick Hash Gui here. http://sourceforge.net/projects/quickhash/
Extract QHG, run the .exe
Click the "File" tab
Hash Algorithm = SHA256
Select File -> "EverquestSteam.iso"
Make a cup of coffee and listen to Cain's Offering whilst the hash is generated
Once the SHA256 is generated, paste it here. Please denote the locale of your game (English, Welsh, French, Welsh, Japanese, Welsh, Mongolian, Welsh, Chinese, Welsh, Gaelic, Welsh, etc.) when posting the hash.
The reason why I want the hashes, is to see if my idea of creating ISOs out of the Everquest folder, will yield the same file. If it does, that means we can use XDelta. If not, I'll have to think of some other way to archive the files with a non-unique archive.
