3. If you are getting an error with something about -lzlib in the makefile, it means you don't have the proper library (libzlib.a)
I have seen a few people have this problem. I think all I did to get zlib to link was to copy c:\mysql\lib\opt\zlib.lib to c:\dev-cpp\lib.

The reason your zone.exe is so big is because it is built with debugging turned on (see Muuss's post earlier in the thread).

To see where world.exe is crashing (needs to be built with debugging info turned on) try:

c:\dev-cpp\bin\gdb world.exe

At the (gdb) prompt, type run

And it should tell you what function it crashed in. You can do the same for zone.exe:

c:\dev-cpp\bin\gdb zone.exe

At the (gdb) prompt:

set args . 127.0.0.1 7995 localhost
run

If you want me to verify that the crashes aren't due to a possible mistake you might have made when editing the source, delete all the .o .exe and .dll files from your source directory (do Execute/Clean for each of the three projects), zip up your source directory and email it to me at eqemu@rama.demon.co.uk.
