Because thats where they belong. They always come that way.

What do you mean the database though? The db.sql is in a seperate folder? That should not be right. It should be in the eqemu folder, one sec and let me download the file and check it out.

how do you go into dos-prompt mode

:P

nono theres a folder that has all the zones in it

theres folder that has 3 links on it

fiolder that has eqhostmanager in it

and a folder that has item database

thats what it was lookin for when it said that

db.sql is in the bin area in mysql folder

db.ini is in Eqemu folder

The folders are right.

Anyway, to get to dos-promt: Go to Start -> Run - > Type in "cmd" without quotes ("command" if that don't work). Type cd.. until you reach the C:\ prompt. Get to the directory, example of what I would type if it was c:\eqemu: cd eqemu. Then type in "world.exe" without the quotes.

There is a faster way, I always forget how to do it that way, hehe. But this way works.

The folders are all OK, I unzipped it, just keep em like they are.

i type c:\eqemu\world.exe

it then says...couldn't open db.ini
Read README.txt!

ecxact(sp =P) right there

Do you have all these files/folders in your directory?

Folders:
cfg, documents, EQHostManager, ItemEditor (last 2 ain't to important)

Files:
addon.ini, Boot5zones.bat, CHANGELOG.txt, db.ini, db.sql, EMuShareMem.dll, eqtime.cfg, license-gpl.txt, LoginServer.ini, spells_en.txt, World.exe and Zone.exe

here are teh files in EqEmu.....
the 4 folders you mentioned...


eqw,eqwfix,world,zones those are programs

ini files are addon,db,eqw,miniloginaccounts,loginserver

dos program is boot5zones

notepads are CHANGELOG,license-pgl,readme,spells_en


2 files that look like a gold and silver lugnut thing turning into each other are...
emushareme.dll,eqw.dll

I am not to sure what to do about it :cry: Boot5zones.bat I fixed for ya, but I am not sure about the world.exe, sorry :cry: I could never figure out how to fix this problem, I had it, switched to 4.4dr1 and it fixed the problem its self. Maybe someone else will know what to do. Wish I could help ya.

crap,so i might as well give up? =P

nah, don't give up. You will get it, you just need a dev's help. I have been here over a year, but I still don't know everything, hehe. I am heading off to bed now, hope you get it fixed!
