Players - AoM Client Setup

Return to: Players | Tutorials | Portal | Forum | Project Manager | Bug Tracker


Warning Do Not Run From Steam

Warning Only Run From Everquest 2.exe

Steam has updated the downloadable client. Must download from the steam depot

How to Get Steam's AoM Client

You will need a steam account to get an AoM client.

You will also need dot net framework installed.

You need to grab the EQ2EMu AoM Client Downloader, created by Devn00b, and unzip contents into a directory of your choosing.

Run the GIT-CLIENT.bat file (you may not see the file extension .bat). If you have problems try running as administrator. If you still have issues, Join Discord and speak with @Devn00b about your issue. When the downloader is finished, select the eq2emu-client.part001 right click and extract here.

Once extracted, open the directory and edit the eq2_default.ini file in notepad or a similar program. Change the cl_ls_address to clientls.eq2emulator.net and comment out the cl_resource_address by putting // in front of it. Save and close.

Your eq2_default.ini should look like the one below.

 cl_ls_address clientls.eq2emulator.net
 cl_placeholder_base_lods 0
 r_stats 0 
 
 cl_unload_resources_asynchronously 1
 r_appearance_update_always_dist 25
 cl_player_cache_dir logincache-us
 
 
 cl_language English 
 cl_fullscreen 1
 
 cl_alert_once_each 1
 
 cl_log_crashes true

Optional, find EQ2.exe and feel free to delete it.

Instead of doing these last few steps you can just use our launcher

Setting Up Our Launcher

First, Visit the link and click download

Second, Login with username anonymous (no password)

Third, Click the little hammer and wrench icon

Forth, Click Clients click Add

Fith, Name it (I will call it AoM)

Sixth, Press the 3 dots by Client Location

Seventh, navigate to this PC "C:/Program Files (x86)/Steam/steamapps/common/Everquest 2" (Location might be different)

Eighth, click Save then click Done.

Ninth, click Emu then click Launch! (Note: you can also add your account in settings >> Accounts)


You have now finished installing! Remember if you did not delete EQ2.exe and LaunchPad.exe never use them, it will update the game and change your eq2_default.ini file. Always use Everquest2.exe while running the game!


To create an account simply launch everquest2.exe, enter desired username and password and that's it. If the login is rejected, then the username is already in use choose another one.

If you ever have issues join us on Discord, and/or the forums and someone will help you!

Enjoy your EQ2Emulator!!!!!!
