Howto : Minilogin with 5.7 Dr-4 [06.03]
Ok a little guide how to set a Server with Minilogin with Eqemu-Version 5.7 DR-4:
Part 1 : Setting up MYSQL Part 2 : Sourcing Databases Part 3 : Setting up the Server Part 4 : Working in Everquest-Folder Part 5 : Starting the Server Part 6 : Fixing Errors Part 7 : EQEmu with EQ-Europe This guide will be updated with every new version released. In a few hours i gonna release a ready-to-use Version.You only need to do 3 things Part 1 : Setting up MYSQL 1.Download MySQL from www.mysql.com 2.Install it and set Username and Password 3.run \mysql\bin\winmysqladmin.exe and look for the green light. If it is green everything is all right. Part 2 : Sourcing Databases 1.Download the SQL-Package (use rightclick->Save target as) 2.Open the *.rar file (You can get winrar from www.winrar.de) and look for "itemtablechanges.sql" 3.Copy All Files to \mysql\bin 4.Start -> Run -> CMD 5.Type Code:
cd <drive>:\mysql\bin 6.Type Code:
mysql -u root mysql 7.Type Code:
grant all privileges on *.* to user@localhost identified by 'password' with grant option; 8.Type Code:
create database eq; 9.Type Code:
use eq; 10.Type Code:
source MW_057DR2_alpha_1.sql; 11.Type Code:
source loot_update.sql; 12.Type Code:
source npc_types_update.sql; 13.Type Code:
source itemtablechanges.sql; 14. If Everything is done Code:
Exit 1.Now you can compile the Sources or simply take my precompiled one (use rightclick->Save target as) 2.Now put "EmuShareMem.dll" , "World.exe" and "Zone.exe" in a folder called "EQEmu" 3.Now download The missing files and put them in EQEmu-Folder 4.Download The Config files and put them in EQEmu-Folder 5.Change folder to "EQEmu" and look for "db.ini" 6.Edit it like this Code:
[Database] Code:
[Database] Code:
# READ README.TXT You only need one. The Defaultport is 5997 , but the Loginserverport of Minilogin is 5999. Change it to 5999! Do not But the phrase "Server" in worldname" ! The ip 127.0.0.1 specifies your PC , its like localhost. You can use localhost instead of 127.0.0.1! 8.Open Boot5zones.bat (with the editor , simply rightclick and edit). Code:
start zone . 127.0.0.1 7995 127.0.0.1 Part 4 : Working in Everquest-Folder 1.Go to Everquest-Folder and open eqhost.txt. Replace EVERYTHING with the following entry. If you got EQ-Europe Code:
[Login Servers] Code:
[Login Servers] Rightclick on the shortcut and add in "target" after the ' " ' patchme. It looks like : Code:
"D:\EverQuest\eqgame.exe" patchme 1.Go to EQEmu-Folder and start minilogin first , than world.exe and last but not least boot5zones.exe. 2.Sometimes you have to wait a bit for the zones loading into world. 3.If you got an output in World.exe Window like "#1 New Zoneserver..." run the special shortcut of everquest. 4.Login as "eqemu" with password "eqemu" . 5.If the Server is locked wait a few mins and connect to the server. 6.If you are rejected from the server , saying you should re-run update ..... and you got newest (26.05.) version of eq the username wasnt added to your db. Got to next Part to Fix it. Part 6 : Fixing Errors 1.Ingame Message :" Rerun your patcher...." and in World.exe-Window "Wrong password" or "Unknown Username". Start -> Run -> Cmd Use command from Part 1 No.6 , Part 1 No.7 and Part 1 No.10 . Type Code:
INSERT INTO account (id, name, charname, packencrypt, sharedplat, password, 2.Minilogin doesnt loads into World. Simply fix it by editing LoginServer.ini . Change the Loginserverport from "5997" to "5999" . 3.The Server is locked , I can enter it and create a char.But i cant enter the world. The Zones havent load into world.exe. Look in World.exe for Errors. If you havent run the "itemtablechanges.sql" this may be the fault. The most errors in world.exe are caused by wrong Database-entries or wrong *.ini settings. Only recreate a db and reload the sql-files into it. 4.You cant attack. I didnt figure out what it is. But its defenetly an fault in the source (perhaps attack.cpp or opcodes.h). The interesting thing is that your enemy loses hp. Reason : You have no animation for attacking or the target (dunno how) attacks itself. 5.No NPC ingame. You need to load a .sql into your db. look part 2. Part 7 : EQEmu with EQ-Europe If you wanna play with EQ-Europe on Eqemu-Servers you have to do following. 1. Patch ur Version to "English" (under Advanced , Erweitert) . 2. Now there are some diffrents between the format of "eqhost.txt" (stored in your EQ-Folder) USA-Version: Code:
[Login Servers] Try this EQ-Europe: Code:

not bad.. though the corect address for MW databases is: http://www.projecteq.net/modules.php?name=Downloads . may also want to use an updated spells file(3-16-04 is kinda old)
|
hehe thanks for the link gonna fix it

Thank you and a question
First I want to thank you for your very easy to use walkthrough. I was able to create my database the first time without any problems.
I did have one problem with a download you mentioned in your post. Quote:
I tried to compile hte DR4 source files myself following this tutorial http://www.eqemulator.net/forums/viewtopic.php?t=14719 But had no luck getting the VS.NET to work properly. Thanks in advance, Farmer Ted |
good guide...i think it should be stickied. i think you should change some of the colors tho...namely the dark reds and blues. kills my eyes.
but a very good guide |
/nod
I agree on both points. It is a well written, concise guide and it should be stickied. But the colors should be changed or should just go... That red is hard on my eyes, but the d.blue makes my eyes want to cross. Just wanted to second x-scythe so that you know more than 1 person is having trouble with the colors. Keep up the awesome work! ~Gandar |
thx gandar i gonna change color and add a few errors !

I'm using v0.5.7 on XP SP-1. I cannot login to the minilogin server. I've tried adding the eqemu account by manually typing it at the mysql prompt, by using the world adduser command, and with EQAdmin. The problem, though, appears to be that the client can't even connect to the minilogin server.
Here are my files: loginserver.ini: [LoginServer] loginserver=localhost loginport=5999 worldname=legit alpha -sianyde- worldaddress=localhost locked=false [WorldServer] Defaultstatus=0 Unavailzone= [LoginConfig] ServerMode=Standalone ServerPort=5999 UplinkAddress= UplinkPort= UplinkAccount= UplinkPassword= [ChatChannelServer] ChatChannelServer=localhost ------------- miniloginaccounts.ini: localhost eqemu eqemu -------------- yes, the space is the end boot5zones.bat: if NOT exist spells_us.txt goto NOSPELL start zone . localhost 7995 localhost start zone . localhost 7996 localhost start zone . localhost 7997 localhost start zone . localhost 7998 localhost start zone . localhost 7999 localhost exit cls :NOSPELL echo You did not copy the spells_us.txt from your everquest directory to this one. Please do so or zones will crash on startup. PAUSE REM:---------------END------------------------ eqhost.txt: [LoginServer] Host=localhost:5999 --------------------------- world.exe and zone.exe give normal outputs, with no errors. I am using an SMC router, but all the apps and the client are running on the same machine. The eqemu account is account #2 in the eq db, if that means anything. |
You posted your password on db.ini, I edited it for you, so don't worry. Not smart to use your real db.ini with everything showing :-p
|
Thanks... don't remember even posting db.ini, cuz I didn't think it was relevant... but it's late =)
|
plz post ur world.exe output !
|
I dunno maybe someone can tell me why this is.
Hello all, Thank your for posting guides like this they help out alot. Only thing is, I know that this is a DR release and things can go wrong. I just found an error that I have never seen before running eqemu earlier versions such as 5.6, 5.7 DR2, Dr3 versions etc. Here is the error below.
[Error] Client error: [Error] Error message: [Error] Client error: [Error] Error message: [Error] Client error: [Error] Error message: [Error] Client error: [Error] Error message: [Error] Client error: [Error] Error message: [Error] Client error: [Error] Error message: [Error] Client error: [Error] Error message: [Error] Client error: [Error] Error message: CLient linkdead: Sasuke Dropping client: Process=false, ip=*.*.*.* [Status] Zone Shutdown: neriaka (40) This happens for everyone not just certain people. And it is endless too it just keeps on and on until they LD and get dropped. This is not seen in world.exe but in the zones that people are in. Any ideas on what causes this? Server? Database?, Client side? Laters, Server Admin for Frozen Shadows Server |
Every time I try to source npc_types_update, all I see is a ton of error messages. I've tried Pyrix's file and an updated one and it's the same for both. All the other files source fine. Is it supposed to be like that?
|
Everything is up and running and error-free, but when I type in eqemu:eqemu for login:password, it just closes EQ. Any reason why?
|
Possibly a bad IP Address and/or port number Merq.
|
Where?
|
Having same issue, everything compiled perfectly, got everything running with no errors, but when I went to run everquest, and after i typed eqemu:eqemu for username:password, and hit login, it just crashes to desktop. What now? And what do you mean by bad IP or port? they are local, should that matter?
|
Man I wish this would be answered so I could play already :(
|
tried to "insert" account eqemu ?
|
Quote:
It should read, "localhost eqemu eqemu_", where that underscore represents a space. |
Quote:
Read my response to Merq regarding the space in the file. Ports do matter. Even though you are connecting to your local machine, you still need to listen and connect to the correct ports. post your loginserver.ini and boot5zones.bat. |

That just might be the issue. |
try to change the "localhost" in *.ini and *.bat files to "127.0.0.1"
|
That was the first thing I tried, still no go, its just strange to me that on the boot5zones.bat that he got no command defaulting errors like I did, I followed the guide exactly. could that be causing that?

There are 2 possibilities: You have Everquest-Europe : [Login Servers] { "eqemulator.net:5995" } You have Everquest-Normal: [Login Servers] Host=eqemulator.net:5995 |
I just acquired a copy of the pre-May 18th patch eqmain.dll. I can login to my server and access the accounts w/o issue. When I attempt to create a character, world.exe crashes with "This character is not a valid Guild Wars Character". Is there a workaround for this.
