EQ2MAP auto updater and Windows Vista
Just to let everyone know (if you don't already), EQ2MAP auto updater works flawlessly in Windows Vista after a clean install and no added software updates (ei: .net). So for those who are planning on upgrading to Vista when it comes out, there is nothing to worry about EQ2-wise; I've been running both the game and the map updater for the past few weeks without a hitch!
:nana: EDIT: And UIBuilder works completely normally too! |
Thanks for testing that Mahonri. Thats good to hear!

well thats good to hear, i was hoping i wouldn't have to upgrade it for vista since i haven't had an eq2 account now for so long i don't even remember, lol. plus I'm just so busy with school. and yes I'm still alive, just really busy with work/school and don't really have any free time.

Well, Windows Vista keeps me asking for the Administrator password any time I start the Updater. Also the Windows shield is shown on the icon, which means, the program needs admin privileges. Anybody knows how to register the program with vista as a reliable one?

I run very good profit reborn UI and eq2 without any problems but eqmap still don't wnat to set up :( HELLLLLLLp me :(((( |

Not a Vista user here, but I thought that you could also bypass the security features by just not installing in a protected folder such as \Program Files.

Having all sorts of problems installing EQ2 map on Vista,i've turned off UAC run it in compatibility mode and still it doesnt work.
Any clues or advice would be welcome i cant play the game without it :) |

Is there any way to add something to the program so Vista knows it's a safe application? |
Fixing
Hi there, I just got a new computer with Vista, and I was having problems connecting too. What you have to do is to right click the shortcut to EQII, go to Properties, click on Compatibility, and check the box saying that this program should run as an administrator. Close that, and then right click on the shortcut again, and click on 'Run as Administrator'. I haven't had one of the annoying User Account Control panels since!
Have fun! |

Still completely stuck... I've had the map updater for a couple weeks now and still can't get it to run in EQ2... I've deleted it and redownloaded it... I've tried just about everything and still....... nothing. What the heck am I doing wrong?
|
Im not sure what the problem is, can't you run the Updater or it don't show up in game?
