You can access the old zones nektulos tox misty lavastorm by modifying a bunch of files on the server side. BUT unfortunatly old high pass is hard coded into the client side not the server side. There is currently no way to access that zone (aside from titanium) on the newer clients without changing the actual code for each client.
I currently use all the old zones on my server minus highpass. misty freeport ect aren't too hard to do. you just hafto change info in the DB. Its setup so when a client hits the zone line. The server checks what client is zoning and sends them to the appropriate zone. You can change that in the DB so ALL clients zone to the old zone ect. But to get them working properly some files need to be removed from the clients and add the old zone files if they are missing them.
Here is the fix Nektulos.
Nektulos.emt
nektulos.s3d
Nektulos_chr
Nektulos_chr.s3d
Nektulos_obj.s3d
Nektulos_obj1.eqg
Nektulos_soundbank.eff
Nektulos_sounds.eff
These are the only Nektulos files you need to have in your clients directory to get the zone to work correctly more or less. You still need to do some modifications in the PEQDB under Zone_points.
you need to change the x y z coords from ecommons neriaka and lavastorm and set the client_version_mask to 4294967295 for those 3 zones. Make sure you take out the second entry for each zone so it doesn't try and zone you to a ghost zone instead of the old. Also you need to go to the doors db to fix the pok book. The entry for nektulos is called POKNRKPORT500 remove the second entry with the same name as this
and change the first entrys x y z coords to right where the pok book is in the old nektulos and change the client_version_mask to 4294967295. Also the ingame map for nektulos is wrong you will hafto download the original map from
http://www.mapfiend.net/map/nektulos/166 thats the correct map to use. Just delete the old map out of your clients maps folder and replace it with the one you download. If you do all this correctly then when you zone from any zone or use the pok book it will put you in the correct zone and your mob pathing will be fixed aswell. Make sure you click show all in heidisql so you see all the db entrys or it wont show the extra entrys for Zone_Points and Doors DB.
Here is a list to tell you which files need to be removed and added to get the other classic zones to work, Required for Classic zones to load. Remove all Misty_thicket files and Toxxulia files.
Only remove nektulos files and lavastorm files with the same name that aren't in this list.
Any zone files that you don't have in this list you need to get from Titanium and SOF/SOD clients in order for the classic zones to work.
I recommend getting the files through titanium first before getting the remaining files from other clients.
The other zones like freeport that don't need to have files removed you just need to change the zone point that the zone line sends you to in the DB. and change the client_version_mask to 4294967295 so all clients zone instead of specific Clients.

So this is an EDIT to give extra Info not in the above section.
I will list the zone_point ID followed by the correct target x y z and the target_zone_id and the target_heading on what they are suppose to be.
remember to change the client_version_mask for each line as well to 4294967295
ID 53 ecommons target_y -2686.3 target_x -636.8 target_z -17.78 target_heading 66.5 target_zone_id 25
ID 1,446 Nektulos target_y -2,064.8 target_x -174 target_z -15.3 target_heading 43.3 target_zone_d 27
ID 1,445 Nektulos Target_y 1,519.4 target_x 610.4 target_z -17.8 target_heading 115.4 target_zone_id 22
ID 1,444 Nektulos target_y 53 target_x 154 target_z 28 target_heading 130 target_zone_id 40
ID 415 neriaka target_2,268.55 target_x -1,107.57 target_z 3.75 target_heading 0 target_zone_id 25
ID 658 lavastorm target_y 3,073.7 target_x 277.8 target_z -15.7 target_heading 87 target_zone_id 25
As a big side note, Lavastorm classic is really messed up even after you correct the zone port ins.
You will end up having to manually correct every single creature spawn in the zone.
AND najena's zone line does not exist. So I made an NPC with race 127 which makes them invisible and placed them at where the zone line should be and gave them this custom npc quest that goes into your lavastorm quest folder with the NPC's name.
sub EVENT_SPAWN {
$x = $npc->GetX();
$y = $npc->GetY();
#Set proximity
quest::set_proximity($x - 100,$x + 10,$y - 20,$y + 20);
}
sub EVENT_ENTER{
quest::movepc(44,853.0,-5.4,3.8,62.9);
}
Which will in turn when you get close to the zone line it teleports you inside of najena which itself is perfectly fine.
The Zone point for najena should look as follows when your inside najena leaving it.
ID 889 najena target_y -1,007.6 target_x -996.63 target_z 16.4 target_heading 63.6 target_zone_id 27
