Getting Started

Installation and Setup

Remember where you install your client to. You will need this path again to complete installation
There is no legal copy of this we distribute, so you will have to search for it.
EZServer may have a client download available. Torrents and other sources may also work.
Once installed, find and right click on the `eqgame.exe` and select ‘Send to’ then ‘Desktop’. This will create a shortcut for accessing Chainbreaker on your desktop

https://discord.gg/Q9gBJDJDKB
Download the Chainbreaker Server Files from the chainbreaker-files channel, which you can select from the left-hand column in Discord
Unzip these Server Files into your EQ installation path (where eqgame.exe is)
When prompted, select to ‘Replace All files’ in the location with the ones you are extracting.
