Looks like you are a returning player. Welcome back. 8-)
I would recommend not using either the old Titanium nor the UF. Use the one that is from the link on the THF site. Titanium was buggy on Day 1 of its creation back in 2006, and that has not changed. UF is ok, but RoF2 has features that UF does not plus its three years younger.
Then follow the directions exactly as written on the THF website. One wrong move and you can be toast. 8-)
That said, I do disagree with where it says you can use previous installs from other sources. I have seen so many problems with that since there are so many ways that the EQ client install can be modified. Instead, do the part that says to make a fresh clean empty folder and put your THF RoF2 in that.
I also would disagree with when it says to put your Rof2 folder where ever you want. Unfortunately, there are some windows folders that are treated differently than others (I learned this myself the hard way). Instead, put it in the root of c:. For example, c:\THF or c:\EQ\THF. You get the idea.
And, when having troubles, don't just overwrite what you did before. Instead, delete the entire folder and start over with a new folder. After you get started...after you got things working and you are used to playing with EQ files...THEN you can get fancy with overwriting and copying and moving things around.
The problem that you saw in the earlier posts from years ago was a Win7 unzip problem. For whatever reason, Microsoft allowed its built-in unzipper to have a max capacity. Beyond that capacity, it would simply create 0 byte files. You would SEE all the files you were supposed to have...their names would be in your file list...but after a few gigabytes of unzipping, those file sizes would be 0. There was no data in them. Win10 does not have this problem.
