COMPLETE PUBLIC SERVER SETUP - Jan-2011

Looks like you might have checked out the wrong folder. Delete the .svn folder inside and re-checkout.

Cool. Thanks Joligario

Tried using VS C++ 2010 express but i couldnt get all 5 to build. 2 kept saying it couldnt find perl510.lib

I couldnt even find that file in the perl directory, i did find a 512.lib however. Is it because my perl is a newer version perhaps? Im a little new at this so forgive me.

Someone said I didn't have the VC++ directories set up properly. In my version of MS Visual C++, i get the following when I follow the directions:

VC++ Directories editing in Tools > Options has been deprecated. VC++ Directories are now available as a user property sheet that is added by default to all projects.

I right clicked all 5 projects and added the appropriate directories to each of the projects there. Is that not correct?

Edit: Nevermind. I grabbed 2010 instead of 2008 by mistake.

Your zones should be UDP. Your 9000 should be TCP. Did you allow world/zone through your firewall?

[dranovir45]

still having the same problem. this is what my current set up for UDP/TCP looks like.

Based upon your previous post, I didn't think you had a port problem anyways. What does your emu config look like?

the whole file is right there.

I didn't see an answer from a question previously: did you allow world.exe and zone.exe through windows firewall? Also, what does your start.bat file look like?

I never saw that question; how do u allow ur world.exe and zone.exe through firewall? and start.bat looks exactly like whats told to be posted.



Edit: I see question now, sorry bout ignoring that man.

Looks like you have Win7.

Go to Start -> Control Panel -> Windows Firewall
Verify the profile your current connection you are using is Home/Work (Private) network
Select Advanced Settings on the left
Select inbound. Scroll down to see if World and Zone are listed. If they are, ensure it matches your type of network (Private) and that it is set to Allow. If not, create a new rule for World.exe and Zone.exe files to allow on your private network. You may create public rules in addition if you want, but not necessary if your network is set to private and it will stay that way.

If allowing through the firewall doesn't solve it, try starting up the command prompt and running each of your start.bat commands individually. Start with world.exe and see what it says (copy/paste is better as the window should scroll). I suspect you should find your problem at this point.

Edit: When i try to do start world.exe it says cannot be found, along with start eqlaunch.exe


Still getting the EXACT same error, hasnt changed at all, when i try to use my start.bat to launch the server. even allowed zone/world through firewall and nothing, dont quite get what u mean with run each of the start.bat commands individually.

Start -> Run -> Command Prompt
Change to your eqemu directory
Type start world.exe and press enter
Copy/Paste everything from the world.exe window that opens up.

[dranovir45]
