<p>LethalEncounter: </p> <hr /> <div>== What to expect ==<br /> <br /> As of now you can only login to a server and run around with other people. Although combat has been implemented with some other features the server emulator hasn't gotten to a point where your experience will be similar to Sony's live servers.<br /> <br /> == Getting a copy of Everquest 2 ==<br /> <br /> To play on the emulator you must first have a legal copy of ''Everquest 2: Rise of Kunark'' or a patched version that will work on the emulator. Asking on the forums on how to illegally get Everquest 2 is frowned upon, you will not receive an answer and you may possibly be banned, so please do not ask this question.<br /> <br /> == Client versions that work ==<br /> <br /> The client version number is displayed in the window title of the game when in windowed mode. The following is a list of clients that are known to work on the emulator.<br /> <br /> * 4427L through 5122L<br /> Current Supported Client: 5316L (Dec 17, 2008)<br /> <br /> == Connecting to a server ==<br /> <br /> ==Getting an account==<br /> <br /> Before proceeding, you must create a player account to play on the world servers. To do this, just visit this link, http://www.eq2emulator.net/index.php?page=14 and complete the first form. Hit 'Register Account' and now you can begin connecting to the server.<br /> <br /> ==Connecting==<br /> <br /> It is advised that you backup your Everquest 2 directory so that you can play both on Sony's Live servers while testing the server emulator out.<br /> <br /> To connect to an emulator server you must first edit your eq_default.ini file. <br /> <br /> Find the line similar to<br /> cl_ls_address 199.108.12.33 199.108.........<br /> and change it to<br /> cl_ls_address www.eq2emulator.net<br /> <br /> That's it.<br /> <br /> Now run the Everquest2.exe to login to the server. There should not be any patching screen, you should be taken directly into the game login. If your game shows up with the sony patcher then it may be because you have clicked a shortcut link to the patcher instead of clicking on the Everquest2.exe program.<br /> <br /> ==== Guide Written By: Andrew ====</div>
