Patch - New EQ Patch just pushed 4/1 - MQ will not work if you patch

[Psy]

Highly recommend you do NOT update/patch EQ until MQ gets updated. Updating EQ now will prevent you from using MQ until it's patched

My understanding is this is related to horrific raid lag.

Version mismatch when I tried to log in but the Redguides site says it is still current?

STOP USING THE $^#@) DAYBREAK LAUNCHPAD TO LAUCH THE GAME... AUTOLOGIN FTW

Revert any of the files that got patched, and then you should be fine. If you don't have a backup dunno what to tell ya.

Sounds like you updated eq via the patcher and thus, MQ will not work until it gets patched.

 

[Nuclearweapon]

Yep!

Story of my life, I finally get to get on after 3 days of No EQ. And I patch everything.....

If you can restore the files they changed from a backup

 

[Yrkoon]

Most of us are too lazy or dumb to restore files or backup. Is there an update on the Redguides side in our future?

3 days in a row now. Home from work and once again waiting for an update.

If you are gone for some amount of time (like I am now), and then come back to patch everything, a good rule to follow is to backup the files before patching. That way, if you patch into non-compliance, you can simply restore the backup files you made. Of course if you are more than 1 patch out, you are kind of stuck either way. This only applies if there was only 1 patch since you haven't been playing.
