Error when launching the correct EQ2 binary

[Klaughton]

I tried to launch the bot via the consul using 'ext isxeq2' and received the message that my executable version didn't match my version of isxeq2, so I replaced my Everquest 2.exe from http://www.isxgames.com/isxeq2/exe/ as instructed and verified my eq2bot files were up to date via the SVN. After trying to launch the game from the new everquest 2 executable, I receive the message shown in the image attached. I am able to launch the game via the EQ II executable but that starts the game through the launcher...( I have to manually click play after the launcher updates my game files)

Something worth mentioning is that I'm on Windows 7 and I used the express setup. I'm in the middle of installing a new copy of EQ from the Full EQ2 setup file supplied by the forum to see if that fixes it. I noticed others are using the bot after installing the same way I did, so I'm going to assume there has to be something else causing this. Has anyone else had this issue? Thanks in advance for the help.

Please close this post. I was able to figure it out.

Can you share what solved it? User error? Settings error? Some one down the road might have your same problem and this post could turn out useful to them!

Sure, I'll give it my best shot. It was strictly a user error, but maybe someone might benefit from this....

I added EverQuest to Inner Space using the incorrect executable (EqII.exe). Even though this worked, the game loaded through the patcher, which updated the Binary file I downloaded from http://www.isxgames.com/isxeq2/exe/. After mindlessly launching the game over and over again only receive the message that I was using the incorrect executable, I finally realized that I needed to go into Inner Space and modify the Main Executable file name (Right click on Inner space in the system trey, configuration, game configuration, select profile, main executable file name). After doing so, the game was still launching through the patcher which again and as it should, prompted me to use the binary supplied by isxgames. Even after modifying the Main Executable file name, the game was still launching through the patcher. It was at this point I tried to launch the game directly from the EverQuest2 executable downloaded from isxgames (yes, I unzipped it into the correct file location and copied over new version supplied by the patcher) which gave me the message in the previous post. Shortly after submitting this post, I decided to remove the game from Inner Space and re-add it with the correct binary in the Main Executable path and it worked. There must be something in Inner Space that allows me to launch the game through that executable. When I try to manually launch it, I receive the error in the beginning post.
