Default Errors

No, that isnt the reason for the crash when zoning. Mine says the same. Both the path error and the OpCode error. But it still runs.

I have noticed that when there are errors in some of the tables, that when i zone, it will crash.

To add the message to the traps table do this:

Open up the control panel for the DB, and connect to the DB that your using ( i have 3 ) i am playing with.

Edit the traps table, and enter a new field. Name it message, and use varchar for the datatype. At the bottom in the Field Propertied tab, enter 100 for the length.

If you dont have a control center in dos do this.

1. Change to your mysql\bin directory.
2. mysql -u root peq <- - whatever your DB is named.
3. ALTER TABLE `traps` ADD `message` varchar(100);
4. exit
5. exit

There are a lot of things that can make you not zone. This is what i did to the DB to get going.

1. I started with the PEQ DB.
2. Made the traps change.
3. Went to the download section of the main page of eqemulator, and i went into each release and started from 0.7.0 and went into each one, and made all of the DB changes all the way up to the one at the top. Some are already done, some are not.

That got me running.

The first time that i run EQ and i select my server, it hangs at the connecting to the server. I control+alt+delete that and do it again. But the next time it goes into the game. I dont know why yet, but it works.

When i get to the character selection screen, it does take a few times for it to zone in.

There are a bunch of errors on the screen, saying i have been disconnected, but it will eventually log into the game.

I no longer have to go into dos and do the zone commands. It now lets me do the icon from cavedudes, which runs, minilogin, then world, then zones.

Honostly, it is really sad to see that people dont share their working databases. They start out with help from here, and someones DB, but dont share the wealth. They want you to play on their server. Then they make rules for you to play. That's sad.

Their are a lot of people out there, that have figured things out that can help everyone else. It's a game people.

Let me know where your at after all of this.
