Launch Path Issue

I have DrumsUI Updater launch the script which then handles the launch of EQ2. Crappy workaround but it works.

I just leave the path blank and click exit. I only run the updater when there is something to actually update. I have a separate Shortcut to EverQuest2.exe itself when I want to launch the game (bypassing LaunchPad which I also run separately).
But, whatever works

It's a known behavior in the Java Runtime::exec() method. The obvious form takes a single string argument and tokenizes it on whitespace, first token being the program to run. Since the tokenizing ignores quotes, paths with whitespace in them cause problems. There's an alternate form that takes an array of strings which avoids that problem, but I'll bet the updater uses the single-string command-line version. Solutions are to put EQ2 in a path with no spaces in any of the parts, or make a wrapper .bat file located in such a path that runs the real launchpad.
Though I do as Mysstie does, I only run the updater when I'm expecting a UI update so I don't have it start anything. I use the EQ2Map updater to start the game, since I normally do want the maps updated before starting the game.

If you go to Settings -> Updater -> Reset All Settings it will correct those errors. Might want to make a list of your ignored files first though. I had that happen yesterday as well.

That's a known issue Skitzo. The profit updater has the same problem at times. I cannot tell you the number of times I deleted java and reinstalled to try and fix. Sometimes it works for a while, then errors again. It's really all in java side of things. But it doesn't stop the updater from working.

I don't play caster classes much, but I noticed (as well as others in my guild) that when clicking a curable on a merc the in game response is that the merc cannot be found. However, targeting the merc and clicking cure from the hotbar works just fine - just not from the click cures.
Is there a work around for this as I'm not the only one experiencing this.
TIA

I think it has to do with mercs having spaces in their names, which breaks the commands used for click-to-cure. It can probably be switched to use the /cureplayer command which takes group/raid position, detriment type and (optional) spell/potion/pet flag, but Drums and Profit don't use that in the group window.

I've meant to supply a backup variable so that the mercs could be supported, at least for the English client, but I thought I read they fixed something about mercs and cure/casting commands. Maybe they only fixed one and not the other (wouldn't be surprised).

This has stopped working for me.
I tried to double click the jnlp file and Windows doesn't know what to do with it.
I tried to install from the website over again and it just wants to download the same file to my hard drive.
Even after removing it from the Java list, Windows still just wants to download the file to my hdd and be oblivious as to its use.

The Java 7 Build 40 seems to be working fine. No errors since build 25, Try uninstalling Java via (Win 7) Control Panel>Programs and Features.
Be sure you have the correct Java download website. Some out there can be misleading.
1st Uninstall Java
Then use this Oracle link to install Java 7 build 40.

Progress Window
The window showing the Adventure, Crafting & AA progress resets to center of screen every time I start the game or camp to a new character. I place in the top left corner and when ever i log to a character it's back to center screen. Any clue on what I need to do to fix this?

The XP bar?
Could be something with your xml uisettings file. Hard to say. You could try finding the Experience line in the file an deleteing it.

I'll give that a shot. Can you tell me the name of the file that I can look in? That'd be very helpful. Thanks.

I know you are busy with the new expan and all, hopefully you will see this eventually. I see that the char window has changed greatly. Very confusing but I will work through it eventually. The really big issue I am having is with the merc window. How do I get the merc back? The merc window has changed so much I can not understand it at the moment. But I desperately need to get my merc back without going back to Qeynos several times.
I am getting around this by using the command line to get it back, finally wrote it down so I could find it. Any chance of adding it to the window please? Having an extremely hard time without merc on all but my raid geared toon.

Yeah looking into it. I just used the format from default UI, so I'll try to get it tweaked up and more user friendly. They patch something tomorrow, so I'm waiting.

Try resizing the whole Character window length when in the Merc selection area. It pulled the Unlock button into availability when I tried that.
