Can't Play 5.2 servers

[Korou]

This is the error that I keep getting:



I don't think it has anything to do with my router.

For some reason that fixed an error I was getting.

I'll try that...

Just in case...is your XP software firewall turned off?

I tried and Tried to get the 5.2 servers to work, so I went back into my boot5 exe changed my 127.0.0.1 to MYIP, then went to the miniloginacount.ini, and added MYACCOUNT INFO... Repatched EQ Live, Started everything up... and Wonderful... Everything you need to know is on the forum.. Just use the search... Great Job on the Work Devs.

My wife came pre-loaded with redhat, thank you very much =) And she doesn't look like Janis Joplin!

I'm lucky to find just a girl with how shy I am.


Conan, All my characters are stuck in oasis and I cant even connect to your servers (eqgame.exe has performed an illegal blah blah blah). delete accounts and characters corresponding to accounts mehltd and mehownzu for me, and ill try from there. I just hope you'll recognize my 65 war and #level me whenever i get it working.



I get the exact same error as korou (sorry if mispelled) -- it was formerly only with account mehltd. I tried connecting with account mehownzu, and was able, until i got into oasis. Oasis crashed both accounts, and since then I've been unable to get in. :P I dont use eqw, and am patched up to where beserker is started to display on char creation screen. Do you think this is what is causing the problem?

5.0 and 5.1 servers connect just fine, and i set myself to DMZ when playing eq, so port forwarding does not apply to me.

ok this is how i got 5.2 to work

Patch EQ to Live Dec 7th 2003 works or whenever that patch was,

then Repatch EQEmu Patcher

go into your EQ directory and Cut the new EQhost.txt or something along the lines of that file name.

Place it in any other folder for the time being.

Repatch EQ Live again. Go into your EQ directory and put that EQhost file backinto it after everything has patched, and the patcher screen is still up, then hit play should work, and compatible with EQ windows.

ok... i log into a server(5.0-5.1). start in game & a few seconds later (10 min if lucky ) & i lose connection... the only 5.0 server allowed me to play for awhile &then the connection was lost...
is there any way to fix this or am i a one minute gamer man? :

You have a router right? You may need to open some ports or set a DMZ.
