This is what I got in the .DownloadInfo.txt when trying the launcher for the test server. **** Starting at Wed Jun 28 22:03:36 2017 with plug-in 1.0.3.195 **** b4e4-00:03:21:*Warning: Retrying LaunchPad.libs/cef_extensions.pak Finished downloading 5,814,731 bytes in 259.458 seconds (22,411 bytes per second)
That was a very slow download so that means they are most likely having some sort of networking issues on their end. I tried it again and I was able to get in.
I've had the Daybreak eye staring at me for the last 20mins. Launcher not working. I have managed to bypass the launcher and get it work by using the C:\MyEQ\eqgame.exe patchme Hope that helps others.
Couldn't get in either, until I tried the workaround Bamkan posted. On Win7. Thanks! On win10 one time the patcher started to run, but wanted to load 10 gigs of stuff. No thanks.
Any workarounds for those playing under wine on mac? How odd that it worked absolutely fine for ages, then poof. Red eye appears, then poof. nothing.
Yeah they broke something with the launcher on 6/28, was working fine 6/27..... so you cant point wineskin at Launchpad.exe, you have to point it at eqgame.exe with the patchme exe flag. Took me hours to figure this out - I had been making a bunch of changes on my macbook and thought I broke it via some other software install.... reinstalled my whole OS etc with no dice.... pointed wineskin at eqgame.exe. Hopefully they unsuck the launcher soon.
That's the bit I don't really understand. Being a luddite I literally just double click on the launchpad.exe. Not sure how to point it at the file. Will try and look into it! Thanks.
I'm not sure that this is connected but on launching game now , processes "GamelauncherCEFChildprocess.exe" are left active on launch eating CPU
still having this issue. I went in and deleted the launcher cache file and it did not work. running the game as administrator. does anyone have a work=around for this?
Logged out in trader status last night around 5PM eastern. Tried to log back in around 8PM, but seeing only a black screen with the DB logo in the middle. After several tries over the rest of the evening, I am starting again this morning. Alas, after this extended time I am still seeing only the black screen with the DB logo.
I tried to run the launcher again about 15 min after I posted in this thread last night. The launcher came up, I got the black screen with the Daybreak logo for about 2 seconds, then it went to the patcher loading screen with the little spinning circle in the middle for about 15-20 seconds, then it went on to the normal launcher screen. I was able to get both of my accounts logged in last night. But they definitely updated something about the patcher. I just tried it again a few moments ago. Patcher starts, black screenwith the logo flashes by quickly, then the screen with the loading/spinning circle thing for about 15 seconds, then it loads normally and I can log in. This is on a Win7 machine.
all last night now nothing this morning. NE idea what is going on with launchpad and is there a workaround?
My launcher(s) went down sometime yesterday. I run EQ on Mac with wineskin. Thought my skins were bad. I have tried changing to child process.exe and nothing. I run a test and this is what I am getting: err:winediag:SECUR32_initNTLMSP ntlm_auth was not found or is outdated. Make sure that ntlm_auth >= 3.0.25 is in your path I am pretty good with computers, but I know nothing of code. I have played in a skin for a while since EQMac shut down. I know how to install this. Is DBG even working on this????????
