Launch EQ with out patcher?

I was wondering if someone could help me get ISBoxer to launch EQ with out launching the patcher. I tried to change the location ISBoxer was looking to launch the game to "eqgame.exe" patchme and that wont launch EQ when i click the character sets. I can click the game in innerspace and it will launch with no patcher just not when I use the character sets. I used the Wizard to set up the team and didnt change anything. I did go back and remake the team several times when trying to launch from different areas but nothing will work. It will launch and run with the launcher so I am at a loss as what it could be. I would just rather not sit through 4 launchers everytime I have time to play a little.

Thank you in advance for any help you can offer.

Pay attention to the Game and Game Profile options when you're using the wizard. This tells ISBoxer what to launch through Inner Space, so it is going to do exactly the same as selecting that Game and Game Profile through the Inner Space menu. By default it is going to pick "EverQuest" and "EverQuest Default Profile" -- if the game was auto-detected there might already be an EverQuest No Patch profile for you to select in that drop-down box.

Since you've already made your team, go into the top left pane in ISBoxer, under Characters, and select each one. In the bottom right pane, then, is the Game and Game Profile boxes (same as from the wizard). Set to your different Game Profile, Export to Inner Space, and launch. :)

Got it thanks!

Looks like I have a long road ahead of me understanding all the autofollow and assist features. Its going to be lots of fun it seems. Can you point me in the right direction to figure these things out? Maybe a tutorial or something?

This is for EQ2 but it's pretty close to EQ1 in terms of what you need to do to get follow and assist to work. (It's pretty simple to be honest.)

In a nutshell, 1. make sure you have a Follow key and an Assist key in the game, and 2. at the end of the Quick Setup Wizard, click on the Game Key Bindings tab and fill in the Follow and Assist keys that are set in the game, and click the "Auto-fill" button above the targeting table. Then Alt+F makes your guys follow and Alt+A makes them assist whoever you are leading with. It might get hairy if you have pets since it will press F2 or F3 or whatever to target (which might target a pet if that guy was already selected) and then use the follow or assist key.

There is a more complicated way of doing it if you follow firescue17's guide (which has a profile download) which I just stickied here in the EQ forum.
