holy crap i've screwed this all up
 

i got down to the part in the readme where i'm supposed to run world.exe before load5zones.bat, but when i run world.exe i get this nice little message:

Failed to connect to database: Error: #1045: Access denied for user: 'The Omega Soldier@127.0.0.1' (using password: yes)

If you can understand any of that you're one hell of a better person that I am. Any help would be greatly appreciated if you can help at all.


Thanks,

Its not rocket science...

Theres your error... I highly doubt you can use spaces in the database id....

You need to execute the GRANT command again with a normal user name.. It might work, but I wouldnt bet on it
