This Zone is Currently Unavailable?! Help!

[Ikkan]

Okay, I can log into nearly all servers (on a few I get 1017 but I will try to figure that out later), but whatever character I make, in whatever zone, I get an Error saying "This Zone is Currently Unavailable", I downloaded EQEmu last night, I am running the Latest Working version, I believe. Any Tips?!

From that i get you are playing on other peoples servers and getting those errors

downloaded EQEmu last night, I am running the Latest Working version

With that i think you are RUNNING a server because you dont download anything to play on others servers.


cant help you without more info and clarifaction

I am running off of other people's servers, such as Stryfe's Test Server and The Infernal Den Server.

Yeah I saw that, so the answer is there is something wrong, a lot of people are getting it, and there is nothing I can do right now? heh

its called a catch 22, If the Devs would have waited till the code was fixxed and tested (from the last patch) everyone would have been spamming the bord cause they couldnt play since they didnt make a back up then patched or are new. So to make people "happy" they pushed out the code quick, unfinished and untested, so now we have people complaining about the bugs that are here because the Devs wanted people to be able to play.
