Post by unknownerrors » Tue Oct 12, 2004 7:09 am

rather new to this. complie went off with out bleep. but any time i atempt to login i get a small info box stating "incorrect client version" i had this set up once before almost a year ago right after that hugh nerf when SoE was all like we are going to stop cheaters.. yeah, sure, ok. anyhow. troubles now. idea thoughts rants. hey we all love those.

have you tried, redownloading MQ2? :P

from what i can tell MQ doesnt care where EQ is installed, just changes offsets held in memory by the game. My 2 boxes have EQ installed in a different path and it works, so doubt its that :P

or if not redownloading mq2, are you trying to play on an emu server? if so then you need an older version of mq2 to work with that eqgame.

try patching. If you have the NEWEST MQ2 zip, and the newest eqgame.exe from SoE. You will not get this error. If you are still having problems, go shoot yourself cause we don't give a fuck. There is no way you will get this problem by having the most up to date versions.

Its simple, there was a patch today. There was no MQ update for it yet. You have to wait.

Don't listen to Scary_Penguin, he's just trying to confuse you.

What you actually have to do is buy a new computer.

Before todays patch, MQ2 was working for everyone who built it properly. If you where getting a wrong version error and your EQ client was up todate, you had the wrong MQ2 release code.

But this is all a moot issue. MQ2 is broken until the next release. Look for that and start over.
