EQEMU v0.6.2, My Experience

[vRandom]

Can you attack mobs? If you can then your doing better than me...

Though i might try this -s option, i dont have errors in my world but i do get a op_clientupdate or something like that wrong size error... which from other posts is not updating my char's location on the server, but client side i can run all over the zone....

edit: and i can't zone correctly... zoning from ecommons to west freeport and i end up in nek forest ....

sadly, i can not attack anything. I get a "your target is too far away, get closer!" message, no matter how close i am.

But I can zone from ecommans to west freeport with no problem.

I also notice I can zone to poknowledge, vex thal and shar vahl, although these zones are all empty.

And in kael and i think all of velious in general, i notice none of the mobs move.

alot are having the target to far away bug. Dunno if this would help anyone to figure out what would be causing it but i run a quick packet collect on PEQ then on sacred annialation server and quite frankly both packet collects pretty much match each other for the opcodes and stuff. i did the same thing in both servers from makeing a toon to walking out of spawn point attacking a guard and attacking a guard when your first spawn in only diff is in peq i died fast lol and SA i just stood there with the to far away msg. so if PEQ runs on linux (dunno) and were trying to run a windows possible that the other post i seen in hear may hold some possiblities. But i am by far no coder or know any c++ mumbo jumbo so i'm lost heh.

well poo... :(

I guess we are waiting for a dev person to figure out the glitch. Something to do with the wrong size client update thing,.... sorry shutdown my server in preps to go out, so dont have exact line... but you likely have the error/notic in your zone window... op_something expected 38 got 36...

Catch you all later,

edit: or like tallerin mentioned, it could be a compile difference between linux and windows... i'm not a c programmer either but that was mentioned in another post....

I cant click on merchants or do quests either with NPCs i know to have quests. I also cant stop any npc by hailing it. I think this is related to not being to attack anything. Its like the server doesnt have my correct zone coordinates? Except that i can open doors and cross zone lines so i dunno...

In my zone.exe, and yes, i am running this on Windows 2000 server, before i get the "OP_ClientUpdate expected:38 got:36" or "OP_ClientUpdate expected:38 got:37", I get a "OP_AnnoyingZoneUnknown (#299, eq=0x0000), size: 8" message when I first zone in. And like I said, I can walk around and open doors and cast buff spells on myself, but I can not attack via melee or spells anything and I can not get any quest npcs to respond.

Also, in my world.exe, I see a TCPConnection::RecvData(): Error: 10053. Looks like this happens everytime I zone and right after it says something like "Removing zoneserver from ip:0.0.0.0 port:0" and then right after that it says "3713250 New TCP connection: 127.0.0.1:16777343". And I think this is related to what I see in the game, every so often I see a broadcast from ZServer about a lost connection from world. Eventually, I see a message that the zone has reconnect to world.exe.

Anyone able to attack mobs or get the client to update with the server yet?

Still no luck attacking on mine.. here's a trick though to confirm that you aren't actually moving..

Zone in and run around as far as you want then target yourself and #summon

It'll summon you right back to where you zoned in. Not that we're still trying to confirm the fact that the character is not updating coordinates to the server... I think we're all in agreement there.

I'm anxious to get this working!

Aside from this, 0.6.2 on PEQ Velious RC1 is working pretty good. Some merchants work, some don't but it'll just take me some time.

Shredomatic: I was getting these errors too regarding my items table. At the end of the error message it was referring to missing fields.. I just manually altered the table with the fields it was asking for and this worked. I think I missed a .sql file in my setup.. try the following before doing your item import from 13thfloor:

ALTER TABLE items CHANGE UNK145 UNK150 int not null;
ALTER TABLE items CHANGE UNK141 UNK145 int not null;
ALTER TABLE items CHANGE UNK137 UNK140 int not null;
ALTER TABLE items CHANGE UNK133 UNK135 int not null;
ALTER TABLE items CHANGE UNK129 UNK130 int not null;

ALTER TABLE items ADD clicklevel2 int not null AFTER clicktype;
ALTER TABLE items ADD proclevel2 int not null AFTER proctype;
ALTER TABLE items ADD wornlevel2 int not null AFTER worntype;
ALTER TABLE items ADD focuslevel2 int not null AFTER focustype;
ALTER TABLE items ADD scrolllevel2 int not null AFTER scrolltype;

After import, try running this:

alter table items change unk130 unk129 not null;
alter table items change unk135 unk133 not null;
alter table items change unk140 unk137 not null;
alter table items change unk145 unk141 not null;
alter table items change unk150 unk145 not null;

alter table items drop column clicklevel2;
alter table items drop column wornlevel2;
alter table items drop column proclevel2;
alter table items drop column focuslevel2;
alter table items drop column scrolllevel2;

I tried finding the original post to reference this fix. Sorry I can't remember who to give credit to for this solution. It worked for me however and I hope it will work for you.
