Well WC i gave it a shot. Got the zoneproxy to compile with zoneproxy and embperl support. World, Zone loaded up fine. No error upon load. However, upon enter zone I kept getting the message "That zone isnt available". After trying again it would let you in the zone. So far so good. Once in zone I got the message that the client didnt have zoneproxy client ( i knew that was comming ) and all was good.
Here are the problems ,the performance of zoning droped through the floor. What used to take a few seconds now took anywhere from 10 to 45 seconds. That in itself was no big deal. However there were other problems ie: Health bar was messed up etc. that we didnt have on the other code. So, after running it for a few mins and hearing players whine and cry i reverted back to my saved exec's.
Anyway, what i would like to offer you is a server that you could work from so we could get the code aligned and working. I would LOVE to be able to have 3rd party zones available to players, that would offer the community so much more for there eqemu dollar. LOL. PM me if you want to get together and discuss this furthur.
