What to expect.

In the latest release (0.7.2), many features have been implemented. See the Project Manager for a complete list. We are still in an ALPHA development stage, so nothing is 100% complete. Combat, spells, quests, items, loot, even mounts have found their way into the code.


Getting a copy of Everquest 2

To play on the emulator you must first have a legal copy of a compatible Everquest II client. See this guide to obtain a Steam archive of Altar of Malace.

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.


Connecting to the server

Locate and edit the eq2_default.ini in your EverQuest 2 directory (eg. extracted_folder\depots\201231\5035369).

Changer the cl_ls_address to match the one below to connect to EQ2Emulator.net

 cl_ls_address clientls.eq2emulator.net

Only launch the game using the EverQuest2.exe in your EverQuest 2 directory. Any other exe will patch to live and cause your game client to be incompatible. As an alternative we have out own launcher you can configure and use.


EQ2Emu Client Launcher

This last tool is not a requirement, but is recommend and is The EQ2Emu Launcher. It makes launching your client a breeze. There is a launcher guide to help you configure the launcher.


Reporting bugs

Everything requires a second look, so when you are playing on EQ2Emulator, we ask that you utilize the /bug command in-game and report anything you find that is not working.


Have questions?

If you have any questions look through the FAQ section for the answer. If you cannot find an answer to your question you can try the forums.
