The new patch is a pain. The new compressed packet structure envolved a bit of a major shakeup of how we process packets. So that's all fixed now. The CVS version of World works now.

However, the packet structure has changed. It hasn't just changed, they've added a lot of new stuff.

We need loads of packet capturing done. However, the packet sniffer in its current form is not up to this as we need the decompressed packets. I'll be uploading a new Packet Collector in the next day or so. I'll then start a thread in forum with a TODO list of items that need to be captured.

Hopefully, these will then allow us to tidy up the last little bits of the packet structure that has changed SO much.

Well, could be worse... Could be raining

On the bright side this should allow world builders a chance to clean up there data.

my everquest account runs out next month, I will run the packet collector and just make a run through zones and crap on the Server Tallon Zek. Let me know exactly what is needed to be captured and I'll look for em.
