USA and EU Patch not matching

[PhabiusBile]

<p>The EU servers have been left out</p><p>it seems the patch on US servers is up and working and you can log in but if you switch to EU there is almost 2Gb difference and it does not let you log in.</p>

[Daggster]

<p>Also updating with the US setting and then launching the game gives different splash (the new one) than when "updated" using EU setting (which reverts back to the old splash).</p>

[TSR-JoshuaM]

<p>The EU servers are still being updated and have not been brought back online yet.  I will do my best to announce it here when it is up.</p>

[Cratoh]

<p>We want a post with an ETA lol, thats all we are asking for us poor scrub UK/euro players. So we can go out or someting instead of of scanning thorugh all this crap when we ought to be raiding.</p>

[Dimmulola]

<p>Always so nice to see the EU servers being patched during primetime while the US servers gets patched firsts - thanks SOE! luv your communication and logic</p>

[Cratoh]

<p>Given that the servers are not up for EU yet, am I supposed to be getting the message 'login rejected...etc' or is there something additionally wrong with the game for me?</p>

[Daggster]

<p>It's updating now with EU settings, so something has changed since this thread was posted. Hopefully the servers are up by the time I've downloaded the 1.7GB <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></p>

[Daggster]

<p>Why would I try the launchpad when the station launcher is happily downloading the update? I will try it, if the servers are up after patching AND I get the login rejected. Meanwhile I'll just assume my game is updated after the 1.7GB download.</p>

[PhabiusBile]

<p>Just so you know the server itself isnt down i can get to the character select screen</p><p>however if you downloaded the 1.7Gb i feel sorry for you as you wil have to redownload it once they actually put the patch onto the eu servers which it still isnt there I am using the us patch to log in to eu server</p>

[coffeeeee]

<p>5 hour down time <img src="/smilies/9d71f0541cff0a302a0309c5079e8dee.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /> well i guess they did say it would be 3 hours at least</p>

[Mangano]

<p>For people who like to go to select char screen to see when the <strong>Splitpaw</strong> server is coming back up:</p><p>Start the patcher, change region from EU to US at the top right. Once patched, close the launch pad. Edit your <strong>eq2_default.ini</strong> by replacing and/or adding similar (cl_lp_... is not in everybodies file)</p><p>cl_ls_address ableq2-04-01.everquest2.com amseq2-03-01.everquest2.com cl_player_cache_dir logincache-eucl_lp_region_suffix -eu</p><p>Run <strong>EverQuest2.exe</strong> directly. Login without entering a character name to get to character select.</p><p><em>*Ofcourse this will work for any server, but before swapping to another region please check your cl_* values in  your eq2_default.ini file.</em></p>

[Daggster]

<p>Oh well, true, 1.7GB downloaded for nothing... Got DoV splash and login rejected. Don't think I'll be downloading the full launchpad client though, but rather trying with station launcher again tomorrow.</p><p>Edit: interesting part is, it didn't download half that much when I chose US and let it patch... I also popped in game to check the new AA's, so the update was good.</p><p>Edit2: changed to US, it downloaded some 200MB and now I'm at the character select screen for EU -servers... I wonder what the 1.7GB was...</p>

<p>Again that's very nice, but teiiling us <span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>IN THE EU</strong></span> that the time online will be 2:30pm <strong><em><span style="color: #ff0000;">PDT</span></em></strong> not very "user friendly" is it?</p>

<p>Your point is valid and the suggestion has been submitted, but in the meantime theres many time zone convertors available for free on the internets.</p>

[janmystique]

<p>I think that the suggestion about time is valid. It would be very cumbersome for hundreds of people (Splitpaw curently 184K or something) to rush for a time converter every time that want to see what time a post was posted or convert SOE times. As it is, I have to keep taking away eight which is mentally very trying!
