No Launchpad Switch

Utanr · Post by **Utanr** » Sat Sep 01, 2007 12:54 am

I have 8 accounts and 8 installs of EQ in separate directories and each one remembers its username. Now EQ has a Launchpad that only remembers the last username typed. There is now a /nolpad switch for eq to turn this feature off. Can you please incorperate that into WinEQ2 for when we use the patcher on option? Or is there a way to do this as it is? Thanks for any help.

With WinEQ 2 you could just use separate profiles instead of 8 EQ directories

But I'll make sure that it works with the new launcher, which doesn't presently work with WinEQ 2 anyway

I have 8 profiles also, each one points to a different directory. Years ago when I first started multiboxing this was said to be the preferred way to do it. Is it ok to run multiple accounts out of one directory at the same time now?

I dont see any way to not use the Launch Pad. Is there a way to put a /nolpad switch in the profile when you patch EQ?

Yes

Try the new release of WinEQ, it has fixes to work with the Launchpad.

The option is "Patch". If it is set to OFF, then the launchpad is not used.

I know how to run eq without patching at all. I want to be able to patch it with the old patcher and not the launchpad patcher! This can be done with changing the eq icon to say:
C:\..... Everquest.exe" /nolpad
This will run the old patcher and patch each directory you run it from. I do not however see an option for this in WinEQ2 profiles. Please add it. Thank you.

Doh, nevermind, as of todays patch it looks like the old patcher no longer patches all of the files needed. Sorry for taking your time.
