Hello All,

here is my setup

eqw running on windows me , along with myseq server
client runs on a labtop running winxp...

this was working way back in thebeginning, but went away for a short time..


i am currently in everfrost, and when i start eq, i then start up the server,

start the client when i am logged in to eq, then i get the
map not found errpr (not really a big deal) then i choose the correct location of my map and hit load, i see the spawns but no map shows up...

i trued adjusting the parametrs but was wondering if
i am missing something.. one other issue, xp only reconizes the
first 8 characters plus the extension.. i.e xxxxxxxx.xxx
is there a way to chage this so xp will recognize the whole name?


Thanks

I have had the problem of no maps several times and what I have found out was that sometimes when directing it to extract (the map files) it creates a Map directory within the Map directory. I just copy all the maps one level up and the maps are now available. Probably an easier way to do this but pretty quick fix for me.
