Invalid password

[Dolien]

I'm trying to log into the server with the new ROF2 client but I keep getting an invalid password error. I tried it with the Underfoot client and I was able to login no problem. I literally changed nothing about my accounts and followed the download instructions to a T. I Need help =(

And yes I know, I'm super needy. I'm sorry.

Hey there,

Do you have THF or EQEMU accounts, are you trying to connect via the THF or EQEMU login server? My first guess would be some confusion with the client side login server settings. Please read our guide: here.

It was the login server path. Thanks!

What did you mean？What's the problem？
I have the same trouble now，and I cannot log in to the game neither by RoF2 nor UF client

All the information is in the link lillu posted above.

In short, your account was either an eqemu account (set up at the eqemu website) or it's a thf account (set up here). Which account type you use determines which login server you use, eqemu or thf. This is when you log in only.

The most obvious way to remember which you used to login is by what you used to see on the server list when connecting:

• I saw all of the available servers, not just thf [this is the eqemu login server]
• I saw only thf server [this is the thf login server]

Once you've established what login server you use, you have to tell your Everquest client which one it should try. You do this by editing the eqhost.txt file in your Everquest folder.

If you have a thf account, I'm guessing yours looks something like this:

[LoginServer]
Host=eqemulator.net:5998

This is the default on our version of rof2.

You should change it to:

[LoginServer]
Host=login.thehiddenforest.org:5999

Save, close and restart eq.

If you prefer to switch between login servers or like to use other servers, I'd recommend including both addresses and just comment one out like this :

[LoginServer]
##Host=eqemulator.net:5998
Host=login.thehiddenforest.org:5999

It'll ignore the "##" line then.

Hope this helps. If it doesn't, please post in the petitions sub forum with as much detail as possible.

I tried all above. I use the THF account, ID name：Namelesszeus.
[LoginServer]
Host=login.eqemulator.net:5999
##Host=login.thehiddenforest.org:5999
##Host=thfdev.dyndns.org:5999
This is the eqhost file

[Ydiss]

Did you try this?

[LoginServer]
##Host=login.eqemulator.net:5999
Host=login.thehiddenforest.org:5999
##Host=thfdev.dyndns.org:5999

If you did and you're still getting an invalid password error, have you tried resetting your password again?

Q7: Can I reset or recover my THF account password?
Yes, you can reset and also recover your THF account password.

This is all assuming your LS account is a thf account, not an eqemu account.

yes，of course

[Ydiss]

I can see you trying to connect. So it looks like you're using the right LS and I see your account on the database.

It must be the password. I've asked about just in case though.

The login server path was incorrect in my files. I followed the step below and it fixed my problem.

3. Change your eqhost.txt file to point to the THF Login Server.
To do so go to your Everquest directory (e.g. C:\Program Files\Everquest) and make a copy of the file eqhost.txt to eqhost.txt_backup. Then open the original eqhost.txt file and change it's content the the below lines.

[LoginServer]
Host=login.thehiddenforest.org:5999
