Hello, i keep getting error 1001 when i try to connect to the server. I copied and pasted the text to the eqhost.txt folder as mentioned but i still get the error when trying to connect.

Can't wait to play :)

Thanks
 
Great help, thank you.

1) done
2)
a) Where are you, as in, at which screen, in which program, etc. = The Game Login Screen where you type your username and password to connect to the sevrer screen (?).
b) What was your last action before the issue happened. = I clicked on the spacebar to stop the advertising screens before login screen.
c) Which version of Windows are you running? ME? 2000? XP? XP SP2? = XP SP2
d) What is the exact(!) error message? = Error 1001 after tryng to connect
e) Is it a consistent bug, are you able to get around it, and are you able to reproduce it at will? = No
f) Which steps have you already taken to try and fix it? This step is in fact very important. If you do not include this, do not expect to receive help = I read some similar connection topics and the one posted by wiz. I added the text as he says to do so and it didn't work out.
g) Which router/firewall are you using, and have done anything to set it up for SoD? = Uni WiFi

Did you use the search function to find similar 1001 error topics? There are about 3 pages worth. Some of the common suggestions/fixes are pretty well summed up in a previous post by Xardon:

Error 1001 means you're not establishing a connection to the logon server. You should try a few things:

First: Repatch all from the SoD patcher.
Second: Reboot your computer.
Third: Reboot your Router, Cable Modem, Firewall (if hardware)
Fourth: Delete your "files.txt" and "eqhosts.txt" and try re-patching all again.

Outside of those, the only other thing you can try that others have done to fix it, is re-install the Game from scratch.

You can also try posting your dbg.txt file for the more tech savy to pick apart. If you try all of these suggestions and you still get the error, it might be an ISP/router issue.
 
Sometimes this problem can be fixed by going into your network connections folder and disabling any connections you are not using.
