C:/Sony/everquest2

Install EQ2 maps into its own folder like the EQ2 one in my case

C:/eq2maps

once youve done that either switch UAC off or right click on both shortcuts on desk top and run as admin. i have UAC switch off .

then all you need to do is double click the eq2maps shortcut and in the section under where it says Auto launch EQ2 put in the path where you installed EQ2 in my example

C:/Sony/everquest2/Everquest.exe

press ok and hopefull it will run and update and fingers crossed it will work

hope it will work

i have found putting any game into program folder allways has issue for some reason unless it was designed to run with windows vista/7 only game i dont have any problems with is Aion but in this case it wont let me put it anywhere else lol
I appreciate all the help people are trying to give me. I am still unable to get this to work on windows 7.

I am being told to put Everquest.exe in the autolaunch path. There is no such file anywhere in my Everquest2 folder. I have looked over and over again. I can't input that path manually either. I am using station launcher. If I righclick on the station launcher Icon it says: C:\Everquest 2\StationLauncher.exe. When I try to put that in the path, I get this error: Patcher file eq2.exe was not found at supplied path. You will need to reselect your Everquest II run option.

I am all confused now. I'm so addicted to EQ2maps I'm about to go into withdrawals and run around my house with scissors.

Do I have to use Landiin's updater? Can I just use the old updater? The old one worked just fine? I'd rather use that since I worked just fine on my old pc. But, I saw this message:


NOTE: As there is a new map system introduced with TSO we have dropped the support for the old map system. To get it to work you need to download the latest updater.

I'm convinced that Windows 7 is the problem for Landiin's Updater for EQ2 Maps because I'm trying everything that I'm being suggested to. I'm getting my scissors now. Good by cruel world!

I have a brand new computer and a fresh complete install of Everquest 2 a few days ago from the retail EQ2 Sentinel's Fate head start.
