Missing zone files and blacked-out zones are two seperate issues.


Missing zone files occur with the newer clients because we still use a lot of older, non-revamped zones.

A major key for determining that you have missing zone files is to click the affected stones in plane of knowledge - with misty thicket being one.

Another sign is to attempt to cross the boundary into west commons from east commons .. that will also indicate the problem.

In any case, missing zone files will result in the client NOT zoning into the affected zone(s).

(The link I posted above will direct you to the 'missing files' download for newer, post-Titanium clients.)


Conversely, revamped zones that EQEmulator is supporting that the client is not capable of using will result in the 'blacked-out' zone scenario.

In this case, you can either change the server to use the older zones .. or, update to a newer client.
