South Ro gound(sand) graphics bugged ??

[Huppy]

I'm having a problem with the sand graphics in South Ro (sro, old zone).
All the sand and hills are showing up as red and black (like lava and coal).
This does this with every client except Titanium.
Just to make sure it wasn't anything I did along the way, I did a fresh
install of both server(rev 179 and DB (1751) on another computer, doing
all the sql updates and still have the same problem.
I've zoned in there with my SoD before, many times and never seen this,
so I am completely stumped on this one
Anyone else have this problem ?
Edit:
Just logged on Storm Haven with SoD client and got the same problem.

Weird, I haven't changed anything, but now the whole zone graphics have
gone buggy. I can move around and see mobs, but everything is greyish
color and can't see where I am going. This is only in the sro zone.
I tried the SoD client on another computer with (updated graphics drivers),
and still see the same thing. Titanium client still shows normal graphics.
EDIT:

Ok, its the south half of zone showing grey and almost virtually no ground
and the walls are hardly visable.
But the north half is what shows the red and black terrain.
So I am not sure if this problem is client or server yet. I'll keep experimenting, lol

Well, no success, but I guess I can change the zone points to use southro
instead of sro, but the druid spell Ring of Ro zones in to sro and the southro
zone won't let the Titanium client in. I tried copying all the southro files over,
but it still won't let the client in.

Here is some steps you might want to try out!

Check the Titanium Client for a file called sro.zon
If you see that file copy it over to other client
C:\Program Files\Sony\Everquest

Check all x,y,z locations

The Newer Map 1,132 KB
The Older Map 526 KB Back in 2004
Both sro.wtr 62 KB

If all else fails try this below

Here is another thing you might try for grins since that
is a newer map remove the file called sro.wtr copy move
to a safe place just incase you need too copy back.

Sorry can not run a full test on this problem
I'm using Navicat to export database files

Everytime i used mysql server to extract the database files
server gave errors at start up about the missing files strange.

The error's i'm having after sourcing peq database using 1751 DB
missing Files
Group_leaders doesn't exist
Riad_members doesn't exist
Adventure_stats doesn't exist
error in Adventuremanger

Thank You for helping the community with your step by step Instructions.
A little more reading and studying i'll solve the problem.

Thank You, I have been trying out a variety of solutions, removing, adding
files, etc. But I'll try the .wtr file and see what happens.
As far as your problem with sourcing the DB, I don't use Navicat to source
or dump any bigger sql files anymore. To source the 1751 in I use these
steps from a cmd prompt, (win vista): Type the following:
mysql -uroot -ppassword (replace the word "password" with your own)
then you get this prompt: mysql>
Then type use peqThen type source peqdb_rev1751.sql (this file should be where you are with
the command prompt. If you have that file in C:\peqdb then when you first
open the command prompt, type cd \peqdbBut after the source is done, (still at mysql> prompt)
type source load_player.sqland if you compiled for bots then type source load_bots.sql

Also in your source folder in /trunk/EQEmuServer/utils/sql/svn
there is all the sql updates to source in (use navicat)
all the updates with numbers higher than 1667
