Getting started

Create a Login Account

1. Go to https://loginserver.eqarchives.com/accounts/ and register for a loginserver account. From there, you can create as many game accounts as you need. 2. Edit the eqhosts.txt file in your game client to contain the following:

[Registration Servers]
{
"loginserver.eqarchives.com:6999"
}
[Login Servers]
{
"loginserver.eqarchives.com:6000"
}

Alternatively, use your TAKP forum account. If using that account, your eqhosts.txt should be set to TAKP/Quarm settings:

[Registration Servers]
{
"loginserver.takproject.net:6999"
}
[Login Servers]
{
"loginserver.takproject.net:6000"
}

Note: EQA and TAKP loginservers provide unique game accounts so you should use one or the other to access the EQA server.
