Rolling out EQ Patches?

[bpogue99]

Hi,

I'm sort of new to this EQEMU environment, but I can tell you I'm excited. Maybe I'm too excited about being able to take revenge on some of those mobs, but man it's still going to be fun. So anyway, I got it all working right up to that pesky 1017 error after I select my server from the server screen. I've followed all the readme's and message posts, etc. and I'm convinced this is because my version of EQ is the one patched after this latest release of Ykesha. So most of you go, Of course it is! So now, here I sit, with this exciting EQEMU environment and I want to play on my own server and summon me some big ass weapons and go beat the snot out of some mobs. How do I roll out patches?

My original CD's came in the gold box as a 5 set. Can I use that version with EQEMU? With all the posts and things I haven't been clear on which version of EQ (up to what date) I can use with EQEMU.

Thanks!
