Well, after I run the Minilogin (latest version), the World.exe, and the 5 zone loader, I run the eqgame.exe with patchme at the end. When I get to the server select screen, it is empty. I checked all of my .ini files, and they are all correct. I've tried reading the readme again, but no help there for this problem. I tried running it with Eqw too, still didn't change. I even tried turning off the built-in firewall. If anyone has a similar problem to this, or just knows some way to help, I would appreciate it.

does your world.exe says that it's connected to the login server ?

Try waiting till the zone servers say they went to sleep, then try to connect. The server screen seem to only update when you log in.

XP doesnt have anything to do with it, from my experience. I am running Windows XP myself, and the emulator runs fine. (Except for a few things, but thats global with the emulator not just XP specific, like bouncing combat). If you follow the readme to the letter, you should be able to get it running fine.

Try using EQW.

/nod...There are so many problems associated with using patchme, so just use EQW....get it here ---> EQW (http://eqw.eqhackers.com/)

Well, I tried running it with EQW, and letting the zones go into sleep mode first, and still the same thing. I don't know what the problem could be... if anyone has any more suggestions I would appreciate them.

Ehh guess I wasn't being too smart. I suppose I was running world.exe before minilogin.exe, and that must have changed something. I've got it working now, and thanks for your time.
