have you played on another server using that client? most specifically p99? if so you will probably need to do a fresh install into a seperate directory, and then update everything there for this server. P99 has almost 0 compatibility with other servers, and due to the changes you have to make to run on that server, your almost always better off setting up a different directory for p99 and THF - Shards of Dalaya also is another server that you cant just patch from thf and expect to be able to play.

my advice - have a seperate install of EQ for every server you wish to play on, or intend to play on, that way theres no compatibility issues.

thats great and all but I was able to login and zone into your server with p99 settings I only started having issues when I used the THF installer. :(

regardless of what caused it, a fresh install will fix it.
