hello.

Hello back

Any one any ideas on this - especially as we have now had another 3 patches in the last 3 days.

ok if adding your user name to the world via the cmd prompt such as.

d:\eqemu\world adduser (username) (pass) 200

make sure you use all lowercase letters as it will not recognize your login letters that are Capitalized.

Such as when you goto login your name would be OsOpo

If you add that name via the cmd prompt way you would have to type it osopo

Thats what worked for me, not sure if it helps all of ye but might help some others.

PoP - still working?
 

OK - well is it still working ?

I have all the latest patches to EQ including PoP now?

Although I am new here I am going to answer: no
I did the latest install and updated db3.6 and 3.9 and nodda. Granted I am trying to setup a publiclogin not join the Emulogin servers but again I think it clearly states that if you patch you are just screwed :(

As of 10-27 and the release of 0.3.11, the current EQ patch and all of PoP are supported.. yay!!

Only bummer part is I am stuck back at the 1017 error once again for no reason this time :(

So till I can figure a way to get past that part then I can find out if I hang after creating my charecter for one comp use. Other then that there have been a few servers that are pretty fun to visit. **EDIT to add** Not sure what the real problem was. Uninstalled everything and then reinstalled it all and now I can play on my own local server once again.

MYSQL
 

i got the windows version of mysql and installed it, created a username and password, went to the database tab and right clicked in the database section, but the only choices are some things that say dump this or dump that or something like that, what am i doing wrong?

do a search, there are at least 10 posts from the last 2 weeks asking the same thing

I must be really stupid, because I am just not getting it. I just downloaded Mysql 3.23.51 and I can't even get the damn thing installed. I hate being computer inept. What am I doing wrong?

Make sure you downloaded the windows version and not the linux/unix one...

*sigh* Ok, got Mysql to work. Now, I am having a problem with the creating a database by right clicking on the hsot name. All that it is giving me is some flush options in the drop down menu...

The search button is your best friend.

Thats a problem with the new windows mysqladmin tool.

Search for 'flush database' and you'll find the answer about 104 times.

Ok, I have been able to understand everything so far, except adding the lines to the boot5zones.bat file. I just doesn't give me the option, it runs a few windows then finishes giving me the directory the eqemu is in, without letting me modify anything...

Oh, I forgot one other thing, now when I run the boot5zones thing, i get illigal operation error...
