I aksed a ingame freind and he explained me where i am sposed to change from us to euro server in the first page with rules, but i dont have any option there.</p><p> also is it possible to f ex transfer a level 80 character from everfrost us server to runningeye euro server?</p><p> Ty for your time and apresiate the help.</p><p>Xues</p>

<p>I am having the same issue.  I cannot make the change from the EULA page... the above mentioned suggestion did not work for me for some reason.  It was not a recognized file path.  (basically file and/or pathname invalid )</p><p>Any other suggestions would be more than greatful!</p>

If you are using the Station Launcher, you will need to click on OPTIONS and then languages.  The Language you select is links you to the regional server.

<p>OK I am really sorry... I do not see any buttons on my EULA section other than accept or decline.  Once I click accept I am on the login screen and I have four options - other than login... new account, parental controls, support, and serch knowledge base.  </p><p> Upon logging in, I have choices as follows:</p><p>My account, support, preferences, update notes, station players, adventure packs, expansion packs.  if I go to preferences, there is agame options button, but this does not offer any language choices.  I appreciate your help in this!  I am sorry if I am missing something obvious!! </p><p> Thank you again!</p>

Please see my post above. You are using the Station Launcher, not the launchpad.

<p>Again, I am appreciating the help... I have the station launchpad up and i do not see an options tab... </p><p>I see buddy list, chat buttons, three game options, help, acct info, subscr info and station news... also see a change user... and more games... *sigh* what am i doing wrong?  </p>

[TSR-TrevorG]

I would save it and then run it to install.  It will not install over the launchpad as it is a seperate program.

<p>Thanks again for all the assistance! I have downloaded it and now I am getting the option for the EU region... Now, however, when it reads the files, it is repeatedly making me download the Everquest2.exe file over and over again.  I apologize for all the postings, but for some reason this isnt working to be as straightforward as I thought it would be!</p><p>Please ignore this!  Finally got it up and running!  Thank you for all your help everyone!</p>
