Use Devn00b's Steam Client downloader to obtain AoM client.


How to Get Steam's AoM Client

Check Out this video gLO4T made for us!!!

First, you go to https://store.steampowered.com/about/ then you click install steam now, after it is done, you open steam, now create a account or sign in. Second, you click store, then you type Everquest II, now just click "Play Game", wait for it to install, (Note: it is very important not to open Everquest 2 through steam, it will update Everquest 2 to the newest version of the game!) Third, go to your steam library then right click everquest 2, then click properties, now go to "LOCAL FILES" then click "BROWSE LOCAL FILES", It will take you the the Everquest2 folder. Forth, you want to find eq2_default.ini and open it with a text editor (I will use Notepad). It should look like this

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 of eq2emu-downloader.zip into a new directory.

Run the EQ2EMU-CLIENT-DOWNLOAD.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.

Once you're download is complete open the EverQuest II directory (eg. extracted_folder\depots\201231\5035369) and edit the eq2_default.ini file in a notepad or similar program and change the cl_ls_address. Next comment out the cl_resource_address by putting // in front of it. Save and close notepad.

Note cl_ls_address 127.0.0.1 may look different replace any and all ip addresses and/or URL's with clientls.eq2emulator.net

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

Find Everquest2.exe and Send to >> Desktop (create shortcut)

Optional, find LaunchPad.exe and delete it.

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

Instead of doing these last few step 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!


If you did not setup an account you can do so here Account Management

Now open Everquest2.exe then sign it with what you just created then it should work! Congrats!

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

Enjoy your EQ2Emulator!!!!!!
