Hope someone here can help, I have had a look through the other posts here and tried everything (completely uninstalling EQ2map and deleting all files/ running regcleaners etc..)
When i install EQ2 map autoupdater i get the following errors

if it helps, I just ran the patcher again. Went into the options and re-downloaded all files.
now getting these errors

Unknown Error: EQ2MAP_Updater
at EQ2MAPUpdater.GlobalVariables.ReadConfigValues()
at EQ2MAPUpdater.Options.Options_Closing(Object sender, CancelEventArgs e)
at System.Windows.Forms.Form.OnClosing(CancelEventArgs e)
at System.Windows.Forms.Form.CheckCloseDialog(Boolean closingOnly)Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

and the patcher seems to get into a loop, not everytime i try to close the windows it generates another error window and i have to go to task-manager to close them

as a work-around , i have copied all the eq2map files from the install on my other computer onto this one.
the maps work fine, except the map backgrounds are plain white. All the POI dots etc..are ok though.
Any ideas of anything i can do to restore the backgrounds?

Ok thanx.

Question: If you delete the eq2map_config.cfg file , do you still get this error when you close Options window?

found the folder that the eq2map_config.cfg file file should have been in, it wasnt there so I go a friend to mail me a copy of theirs. And now it all works fine

Seems the install was not creating this file for some reason.
Thanks for the help all

I am sure this has already been pasted, but when I search the forums, I have yet to see a clear solution. As soon as I open the latest version of EQ2Maps (1.0.13) I get the following error message:

Seems like the database file is corrupt, try again to update, if that don't work you have to wait for the DB file to change on the server or delete the cache file in the program folder.

Default XP Pro latest patch

I have updated to the latest versions of windows xp and 1.013 and when I start
it doesnt even begin to download. All I get is a error popup that says EQ2 updater has encountered a problem and must shut down.
I did manually download all the maps and made the manual changes to eq.ini and the maps appear in-game just the auto-updater fails.


Any suggestions?

Chris
