[drskunk]

i got a probleme installing eqemu...
i was playing eq a long time ago and i only reinstall the first cd of it (i dont have the rune of kurnark and the all the patch after it)
i did all the things writen in the read files(i only did the part 3 of the installation cause i'm only interest on the minilogin) but it still doesn't work
i only want to play offline on my computeur and alone so it's minilogin if i understand well
i dont have mysql is it very necessary??
when i open the loginfile it works. then when i open world.exe it says i have some error cause myslq got away and it cant load guildrank spell zones etc... and when i run load5zone windows close all the dos windows that appear cause of an error and otherwise it doesn't work.
i download myslq but didn't find in the download files a way to install it all the files i got where files that nead a program to be open and no install files.
can anyone help me??

You MUST have mysql installed to run your own server.

See my sig for several helpful links and instructions. Reading the readme.html file is a MUST also.

i installed mysql on my computeur as the read me files told me to but now i think i have a probleme with world.exe cause when i run it it never find eq data.
it always give me few message of error the first is access denied for me, but i know how to resolve it ,and the others tells me that it cannot load spells guildrank and the other stuff the programm have to load
i think it's just that i didn't point well to world.exe where eq data where but i did it 5 or 6 times exactly as it saying on the readmefiles
can anyone help ?
