Adding a new Zone?

[hayward6]

I want to add a new zone to my server that only I can get to. I have done some reading on the subject and I know that the zone has to be recognized by everquest, like no new zone names. What I was hoping to do is to make my own small zone where I can have vendors and quested npc's for various tasks, but it would have to be off limits to everyone else. Does anyone have anything like this right now?

I guess the simple thing would be to take some underused zone and lock it... but im not sure how to do that either.

You could use the following zones..

load
load2
cshome
nektropos
tutorial
tutoriala
tutorialb

Those 7 are recognized and are not used in the everyday game, but you would have to #zone to get there.

So there is no zone connected to these? #zone isnt an issue since I have regular players turned off for that ability. I just want to make sure nobody can get there since I will be keeping alot of quests and n vendors there that will give out items and potions and stuff.

Also I know that CSHome is out of the question because you need files to have to use the zone, the other zones arent like that also are they?

No, there are no connections to these zones from another zone.

No, there are no connections to these zones from another zone.

But do I have the required files with Titanium to access them? I'll try when I get home of course, but I would hate to get stuck in a nonexisting zone and have to move myself with in the database.

You should definitly have the tutorial, (a), (b) zones.. not sure if you will have the others. Left ya a PM.

Thank you, I'll give it a try when I get home. The Tutorial zones are looking good to me.
