Start.bat - Perl512.dll is missing

[matthews24]

I did a quick search through the forums, and found a somewhat...but opposite problem to what I am experiencing.

I have installed StrawberryPerl 5.10.

When I launch my Start.bat file, it tells me world fails, unable to find Perl512.DLL.

Some info. Running Win7. Titanium client. I have uninstalled/removed the perl directory and restart/fresh install of perl. Still asking for dll512.

Any suggestions?

That's because the version of world.exe you're running was compiled using Perl 5.12. You have 2 options:
1. Download/install Perl 5.12
--OR--
2. Download source, search the project for instances of 'perl512.lib', change to 'perl510.lib', and compile. I searched an older source, but I found 2 files with this reference in World\EQWParser.cpp and Zone\embperl.cpp, both obviously in my eqemu source folder.
