Guys, I'm having mass problems getting my server to go public so my friends can play on the server I created. What could be my issue here?

I'll include some stuff that may help get Info, of course my IPs are censored:
eqemu_config:

<?xml version="1.0">
<server>
<world>
<shortname>TBC</shortname>
<longname>The Broken Crown</longname>

<!-- Only specify these two if you really think you need to. -->
<!--<address>ComputerIP</address>-->
<!--<localaddress>MylocalIP</localaddress>-->

<!-- Loginserver information. -->
<loginserver>
<host>eqemulator.net</host>
<port>5998</port>
<account></account>
<password></password>
</loginserver>

<!-- Sets the shared key used by zone/launcher to connect to world -->
<key>some long random string</key>

<!-- Enable and set the port for the HTTP service. -->
<http port="9080" enabled="true" mimefile="mime.types" />
</world>

<!-- Database configuration, replaces db.ini. -->
<database>
<host>ComputerIP</host>
<port>3306</port>
<username>root</username>
<password>blahblah</password>
<db>peq</db>
</database>
</server>

I am new and barely recently got all new PEQ db files and such to start... so im startin from scratch basically.. i searched endlessly on the boards every where trying to figure out why other people cannot connect to me.. on variables i have Minilog set to Public so its not set to minilog.. also there were never any LoginServer.ini when i was done DLing all files i was told to DL in the end.. Though when i first DL'd PEQ DB i had stuff set to Localhost instead of my computer IP.. dunno if thats a problem. I made a LoginServer.ini myself and here it is:

{\rtf1\ansi\ansicpg1252\deff0\deflang1033{\fonttbl {\f0\froman\fprq2\fcharset0 Times New Roman;}}
{\*\generator Msftedit 5.41.15.1507;}\viewkind4\uc1\pard\sb100\sa100\f0\f s24 [LoginServer]\line loginserver=eqemulator.net\line loginport=5998\line worldname=The Broken Crown\line locked=false\line account=\line password=\line worldaddress=MyLocalIP\par
\pard\par
}

also when i think the problem is.. When i load up start.bat everything runs fine and loads fine except World_Zone still connects to TCP 127.0.0.1:blahblah SO I think because its still pulling Localhost IP for World stuff its some how not allowing others to log onto my server.. I can log onto my server perfectly fine at home.. but outside of LAN i cannot.. Also I read somewhere that U can change that by editing World.bat... but I do not have that since im running the newer style of EQemu stuff... If that makes sense? Anyway please help!! I'm hella frustrated here.

PS my zone/world files aren't MS-DOS Batch Files, but just called Applications.. which is what came from what i downloaded my EQemu stuff.
