Just making sure I understand... You've got eq2map autoupdater running and your maps work. You're now trying to install another mod in addition to eq2maps.

Since eq2maps are working you've got an eq2.ini file. I'll assume you did a default installation, so it should be at:

c:\program files\sony\everquest ii\eq2.ini

Open that file with any text editor. It should look something like what you see below. The bit in bold might be different.

cl_ui_skinname eq2map
cl_ui_subdir UI/

Whatever your eq2.ini file has listed after cl_ui_skinname is the location of your mod directory. If it says 'cl_ui_skinname monkeyinglasses' then your mods would be in c:\program files\sony\everquest ii\ui\monkeyinglasses\

Now that we've got that cleared up. Close eq2.ini without saving it.

Download the mod of your choice (note that if it has an installation file that needs to be run, you're on your own, what I'm talking about is just your average, everyday, run of the mill, drop in mod).

Extract the files from your freshly downloaded zip file to that previously determined mod directory.

Now restart eq2 (not just log into another character, camp to desktop and then restart.)

Your mod should be working.
