I finally got a Windows server up and running by using the installer and steps outlined here:
http://wiki.eqemulator.org/p?Akkas_P...ctions-windows
Now what can (or should?) I do?
I'd like to change the database username and password for security (helpful tip from someone in another post). Simply changing the values in the eqemu_config.xml and login.ini files made it to where the server wouldn't start. I suspected that would be the case, but I tried it anyway just in case.
I'd like to start tinkering around with creating new content, new NPCs, etc., but I don't know where to begin with it. From what I can tell, the Windows installer gets you the "default" server with all the code compiled and installed for you. How can I get into the code, poke around with it a bit, and then add it to the installer? Or is there a way to update the server?
Very new at this and just feeling my way around. Very appreciative for any advice
