more errors

some how i got patcher to work but i get error string not found 303 messages
im bit confused as to what ill be playing ..am i playing eq ?
should i be seeing the normal current eq load screen i cant use the pw i made on sod site to log into the eq game instead i have to use the trail user and pw i set up the game gave me some ip error
but when i got out of that error the normal game patcher started patching the game and that goign to take hours to do. should i be seeing some thing diffrent or is this normal ?
some screen shots would help if possble please

again any help on this matter would be great thanks :)
 
The only way SoD will work is by patching after installing titanium or the anniversary edition. The titanium version has been discontiued so it's getting pretty expensive, but the anniversary edition should still be found online reasonably priced.
hope this helps a bit sorry your old disks wont work.
 
error 2

well what i get is ip_plugin.exe has encouterd a problem and needs to close
but after a few seconds of waiting it goes right to the eq patcher and starts patching

it only took 10mins
but again what am i suppose to be seeing ?
and do i relay need to buy ether one of those 2 exp packs i mean whats the diffrence between those 2 exp packs and my individual disks bought 1 exp pack at a time ?
id relay like to know
i quit game after 6 years of burn out and id rather have to not buy a whole new game again when i have all the disks allready
thanks for last relply btw.
again not sure what im supose to be seeing

In the SoD patcher, tell us what directory you're specifying for your eqgame.exe file.
 
patcher info

ok here is info you requested hope im doing it right
the eq directory i have it in c:\progam files(x86)\********* i have bind set to 4 as i have a quad intel prossor . the use eqw is check and run after patch is checked
the next window for sod patcher has executable to launch c:\progam files(x86)\*********.exe run patch program is checked and fix eqclinet.ini is checked
im hitting browse hitting local disk c then program files (x86) then selecting the ever quest folder which loads that into the sod patcher then i have use eqw and have run after patch checked off the eq beta 2.35 window pops up the exicutable to launch window has this in it atm C:\Program Files (x86)\*********\*********.exe and browse next to it i have run patch program checked off and fix eqclient.ini checked off

as that is i get that ip plug in error then it goes to the normal eq patcher with the under foot border and eq news window and the my account prefrences game options tabs ect

when the patch finished loading and i hit play now i get eqgame.exe client has encounterd a problem and needs to close
i get ether the ip issue or the eqgame.exe iissue happening
again sorry for bad spelling

again is this what im supose to be seeing ...and if you dont mined please again why do you need those exp pack sets and why cant i use the disks i have i mean dont they do the same thing ? again thnaks for the responces so far hope fully well figure out what wrong only hard part is waiting for help as this only real way to recive any

if any one has any voice chat or some thing like vent ect i can use and you cna talk me through it 'it would relay be major help' you could always ban my ip after you helped :)

if im supose to be seeing sod patch window up instead of the eq one with all the advertisements then its plain to see im doing some thing wrong here
i saw some of the many post i looked at showing some older sod log in windows once patch was done kinda like the old eq days windows
i applogies if im giving to much info here im just frustrated i have no one to talk me through this like i do other things on vent phone ect.
it would be again help full if someone could direct me to live person to chat with even if i have to type back responces i realise im not only one with issues here and just one person but any help would be nice asp ive read what was posted so far but again im confused

hope this helps you help me thanks

If you're seeing the eq window with advertisements instead of the sod patcher window, then you might be running the wrong exe. Check that you pointed the patcher to the right exe.
 
update

well what i do is on the second window with eqw checked off i hit browse then i go on ot progrm files and i get in to the eq folder and i look for the eq symbole icon with blueish tone on it and i select that is that it what is it supose to look like can you post a screen shot or some thing please that may be my issue
