<p>So, I recently picked up the Sentinel's Fate discs from a friend of mine, included was the 14 day free trial slip.</p><p>Signed that up, got it all setup and ready to go.</p><p>Installed the game, it patched up, and will load all the way up to the "Launch Game" button.</p><p>When I launch though, it loads for a bit, and then tells me window's found an error with EQ2 and had to unexpectedly close.</p><p>Oh, then it kindly tells me "Sorry for the inconvenience"</p><p>So after about a week of fruitlessly searching the forums for a post on this, I've come here.</p>

<p>Try using this <a href="http://launch.soe.com/eq2" target="_blank">installer/patcher</a> to get into the game.</p>

<p>So, downloaded, new launcher, and no dice. Same error, it updates like 58.8 mb of somethin' from the launcher, and then proceeds to start, and then the same windows error. Should I post my crashlog info?</p>

<p>Let's try clearing the games settings to see if it helps.</p><p><p>You may want to make backups and then delete the following files and folders:</p><p><ul><li>cache folder</li><li>eq2_recent.ini</li><li>eq2_default.ini</li><li>EverQuest2.exe</li><li>eq2.ini</li></ul></p><p>As well as the character specific files, these will appear as such:</p><p><ul><li>Servername_CharacterName_EQ2_uisettings.ini</li><li>Stationname_characters.ini</li></ul></p></p>

<p>When you say Cache, do you mean the Assetcache folder? That's the only one I can seem to find.</p>

<p>There should be a folder called cache.  If you do not have that folder, just skip over that one.</p>
