Can't get past Character Select

I'm trying to setup a local eqemu server. I followed this thread to set it up: http://www.eqemulator.net/forums/vie...80e481b86cff72

Here is the output of my Minilogin.bat

Code:

LoginServer.ini read.
MiniLoginAccounts.ini read.
Server mode: Standalone
Login server listening on port:5999

Here is the output of my World.exe

Code:

Here is the output of one of my Boot5zones.bat:

My EQ Client was last patched sometime around the end of March / First of April. Dates for my EQ Executable files are :

Code:

03/30/2004  06:13 PM         2,228,224 eqgame.exe
02/10/2004  11:04 AM         1,355,776 Everquest.exe

Now the problem...

I can start my EQ Client, can see the server fine. I connect, create a new character, click it at the Character Select screen and get dumped back to the Server Select screen after a couple of seconds. The output of Boot5zones.bat after this 'crash' is as follows:

Code:

Can anyone point me in the right direction on how to find the problem?

Thanks!

Most likely you are using the wrong version of the server files that are not compatible with your client. What server versions can you play on? Probably 5.7 DR3 which menas you have to download the source for that and compile it since there are no compiled versions available for it.

I haven't tried playing on any other servers, just wanted to see if I could get one up and running for myself.

Did some more digging and found these errors in my dbg.txt file in the Everquest directory...

Code:

Well, the only way for us to really know what version of the server you need to run unless you know exactly the date you last patched is to have you get on many different server versions and try them until you can get on one and download the code for that version.
