I am on Windows 8.1 64-bit and this is happening to me as well. In fact, any time I right click any files or folders of mine that I have at all, the installer starts. I click cancel and the installer cancels but then starts again. I have to click cancel on about 10 different installers before i finally get my right click menu. Rar files are unusable atm. I came here looking to see if it happened to anyone else. I will have to try uninstalling winrar, then reinstall the repack and see if that does it.

EDIT nevermind

Hi Akkadius,

Thanks. A quick write up would be great on how to configure a local login server to work with this repack. I'm sure I'm not the only person in the boat of not being able to have external connections.

BTW, installed this on Windows Server 2012 R2 x64. Went flawlessly, without a hitch. Everything started up correctly.

Anyone else having trouble uninstalling this software .. it keeps saying its being used when its the ONLY thing running is the uninstall and when you manually delete it it keeps trying to run not letting you do anything to get rid of it.

Most likely have the MariaDB service running and it has a file that is open.

You will need to go under your Services and manually shut off the MariaDB service in order to successfully uninstall the package.

I will see where this fits in with timetables right now, I have a lot going on.

That'd be awesome if you could provide such a thing, Akka. :D

Hey Akkadius, loving all the hard work you do!

Is there a way I can access the the .cpp and .h files? They must be buried somewhere I have not thought to look.

If you want to compile your own binaries you will have to compile your own source entirely, I did not bundle the source with the repack. The point was to provide a stable build and not let people try to compile from our repo which is constantly changing and potentially introducing bugs and issues that people do not know how to troubleshoot.

We're going through a new process of developing where we will mark a point in time in which our code repo is stable and we'll announce an upgrade with an easy means of upgrading, it will be seamless.

I am so excited to try this, Thank you so much Akka. I am having one problem though, after install I go to run t_start_server.bat it goes to start then tells me it cant find world.exe, sharedmemory.exe, and so on and so forth. Any suggests for this? I am running windows 7 and have repaired the download, restarted and no luck


Thanks

Make sure the batch file is in the same directory as the exes.

Thanks, they are all in the same place though

I got it figured it. Just trying to make myself a GM Now. I dont have any experience with this stuff, sorry

Got it figured out! Thanks Akka!

Anything other people should be aware of?

I paid for Navicat, so I don't know HeidiSQL. However, edit your PEQ database and find the "account" table. Find the CharName of the character you wish to be GM and change the "status" field to 250. Save changes.

Relog your toon, then when in game issue a:

#gm on

Whilst your character is targeted.

Nothing major, at first i was running as administrator, and it didnt work. So, i decieded to not run as administrator and it worked perfectly fine. As for the GM i never knew you could navigate command prompt. So, when i learned that, everything went well.

Thanks for the help

the repack build for 64 bit systems only

Weird, at least it worked.

I was talking to Miller.

LOL, you should know Noport always seems to be on another topic. Should ever an EQEMu meet and greet go on in the future, I believe he'll be the first person I seek out for the laughs.

Woah!

This is amazing, thanks for putting this together!

Merchanarys
 

Hello!!!!

NICE PACK really ... anyone got Merchanarys working ? if so what did you do to enable them please!



Derantum

I have an odd question i'm changing mine to the latest client do i need to change both of them? World:ExpansionSettings under rule_values record 457 and Expansions under variables record 12

For everyone that is having issues with Mercs, I got mine working by following the steps here http://www.eqemulator.org/forums/sho...c+failed+spawn

I can get them to spawn and follow me around PoK but when I zone they go poof. Still trying to figure it out.

What Client you running please?

I am running the UF client.

Thanks guess thats the problem then .... i am useing Titanium Client .... no Merchenarys or Xtarget window in my game

Yeah the titanium client does not support a lot of features. Which is exactly the playstyle some people wanted.

I'm a masochist for old school EQ but even I can admit book-in-face medding got old after a while haha

too bad i cant find a Underfoot Version .... Xtargets and Mercenarys is all my Server misses for us to have fun snieeef....

is there a way to get those functions to work with Titanium client ?....

mercs dont work with underfoot either pretty sure u need ROF for mercs.

but i thaught this Server version doesnt work with RoF?...

Mercenaries require SoD or later. Underfoot qualifies as later.

Really easy to install, thanks but I see my server status as locked in server status and when I try to login I get "that zone is unavailable" whether its the tutorial, gfay etc.

I did try to change the number of zones in the launcher table but no luck.

Any ideas?

hmm did you change anything ?

the Clean Server package without anychanges worked fine for me all i changed at start was the Servername.

Maybe you forgot to open the Ports on your router?

I've got 9880, 7500 and 9000 open, miss any?

Thanks

9000 UDP connections
7000 to 7400 UDP for Zones
7778 UDP for chat
7500 UDP chat2

you wont need them all i guess but thats what i got to get it working so far...

quoted below

I have the same issue. Cant get them working. No stances and they poof when I zone.

Using underfoot client.

I'm gonna go out on a limb here. You guys having mercenary problems are you using the new deblob database?

Hey dude... i use the Easy to install pack from this page hehe one click BAAAM Server online freshly downloaded 4 days ago..

so i guess i use some of the newest stuff

my main problem gonna be Client tho ... i use Titanium atm

Updated to the sep 25 dump on all the merc tables to try to fix it, same issue.

Not sure what the deblob database is and google is no help.
