Game Forum / Role Playing Games / EverQuest / May 2004Nag screen
I'm sorry if this has been posted somwhere before but i could not find it .. Is there a way to get rid of the pre-order nag screen ( er- without actualy BUYING it ) ? What makes you so sure that buying it will make it go away? ;) > I'm sorry if this has been posted somwhere before but i could not find it .. > [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > Checked by AVG anti-virus system (http://www.grisoft.com). > Version: 6.0.667 / Virus Database: 429 - Release Date: 23/04/2004 > I'm sorry if this has been posted somwhere before but i could not find it .. > [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > Checked by AVG anti-virus system (http://www.grisoft.com). > Version: 6.0.667 / Virus Database: 429 - Release Date: 23/04/2004 a friend of mine deleted something from one of the files in the EQ folder, but next time he ran the game it was back. lee > I'm sorry if this has been posted somwhere before but i could not find it .. > > Is there a way to get rid of the pre-order nag screen ( er- without actualy > BUYING it ) ? Open eqlsPlayerData.ini and change the following two lines in the [MISC] section: OmensFirstOffer=999999999 OmensLastOffer=999999999 (Those are ten number 9's and I believe it is case sensitive, so type it exactly as you see it.) > > I'm sorry if this has been posted somwhere before but i could not find it .. > > [quoted text clipped - 9 lines] > (Those are ten number 9's and I believe it is case sensitive, so type it > exactly as you see it.) thanks .. that looks like it worked > > Is there a way to get rid of the pre-order nag screen ( er- without actualy > > BUYING it ) ?

I'd be looking for such a line but was looking in eqclient.ini, which is where they were for earlier nag screens. I hadn't noticed that the new login screen also came with new configuration files. I'm surprised that 999999999 (nine 9's) works, though. I'm pretty sure the numbers there are Unix timestamps, which are in seconds since 1970, and 999999999 is only Sep 8, 2001. I thought you had to specify a value in the future to stifle the nag screen. I set mine to 1200000000, which is sometime in 2008. (Don't use values bigger than 2147483647, else it might get misinterpreted as a negative number due to the way it's represented in the computer.) -- Don. --------------------------------------------------------------------- -- Sukrasisx, Monk 33 on E.

Now that that is solved is there any way to shorten the time delay on the SOE and Game Rating splash screens. Since the new startup interface, these two screens seem to take twice as long to display. About 20-25 sec in total and with a cable modem, I don't think it has anything to do with signal lag  SignatureTransrook, Ranger 30 Drinal <snip> >Now that that is solved is there any way to shorten the time delay on the >SOE and Game Rating splash screens.
