Hi Guys, i just got my autologin stuff working, which is great... When i know the server ID

it appears after some testing, that my eqlsPlayerData.ini file is not updating when i log in to a server. Mine still looks like so;

i may help.


In which directory is this file stored ? (some windows directory, mostly used when selecting by default installation mode for a new program, doesn't allow write/update)

if you make a search on your whole hard drive on this specific file name, how many occurence do you have ? (maybe you are updating the wrong one)
if you have more than 1, check their last update time stamp, load the game, and check if any of these files got updated.

last but not least, are you using wineq2  ? or any multi box booting program

I have EQ installed on root directories on an otherwise blank SSD. Example, e:\EQ, and e:\EQ_MINIMAL

My shortcuts to eqgame.exe have been set to run as admin

NTFS permissions are basically "Full access" to everyone, system, administrator

No reason it wouldn't update from those Dir's

May be a stupid question, but the file attributes is not set to read only is it?
right click, and select properties

Can you change and save it with notepad?

Haven't tested yet (replying from phone during morning coffee) but you could try renaming the  file to filenameOld.ini then logging in and seeing if a new file was generated.
