EQ2 Download problem

Archived from groups: alt.games.everquest (More info?)

Hi,

Is there any place I can download the updates to my files for my brand
new EQ2 I bought today? The downloading from within the program seems
not to work very well, it downloads a couple of files and then
cancels.

I can't understand why they have designed it like that, it would be
better to download updates like microsoft does with their auto update.

It is very annoying not being able to play directly after buying a
game.

if you click on the "show details" button just under where the update
progress bars are it'll tell you what the problem is ... sometimes it's a
corrupt file that stops the updater ... just find and delete it then restart
the patcher. If it's just network timeouts then there isn't much you can do
except keep trying
