Problem - Unzipped downloaded files, which one starts the launcher ??

[Irishbarmaid]

OK, i paid to get the very vanilla launcher/program -- i downloaded a zipped file, extracted it, but which file do I click on to start the thing?

start > HERE <

the video just says 'start the launcher' but i don't have a shortcut on my desktop to do that, and i don't know which file in the extracted folder to click on to start it

at about 1:40 in the video it says 'click the file to begin installation' -- but my file was zipped and all i could do was extract it.

did you install the redguide's launcher?

the video talks about this at like 1:20

Based on your download history, it appears you might have just skipped that part.

so hit that link above and you'll be on your way to success!

Oh so you're just like everyone else here then.
We try to hide that from Sic. Seriously, Sic deals with us. Please, pretend you're not a ten thumbed neanderthal clubbing a computer to death like it's a sabertooth kitten. Like the rest of us.

Following the 5th video about 'kiss assist' -- it says go into my very vanilla folder and find the release folder -- i can't find this -- i told my computer to search for 'release' and it found a lot of items, but nothing in a folder about mq2, everquest, etc.

Click the "Open MQ Folder" button from the launcher

as a lazy individual i would use rgmercs instead of kissassist
( https://www.redguides.com/community/resources/rgmercs.1013/ ), easier setup and does the job.

that's grand, thanks. i'll go have a look --- curious, how many of you lads work in tech support, and dread calls from people like me?
