naked characters on DB update

You did update your server source code and recompile right? Updating the database is only half the job, the server needs to match the database version as well.

I did not. I've tried compiling the source code once and it bombed out with errors so I've been gunshy about it ever since.

I think you're right about needing to recompile, but not because of the database. I switched back to the old database and ran some tests:

Titanium + Rev1751 = success
Underfoot + Rev1751 = failed login
Underfoot + Rev1751 + updated opcodes = success but naked characters

When I update the login opcodes Eqemu can no longer load the items. So either the opcodes need tweaking or I need to recompile the server source code.

Anyone have an idiot's guide to VS2010? I need to #include the mysql.h file. I've tried adding the folder in Project-Properties-Configuration Properties-VC++ directories/include. That does nothing and I get hundreds of compile errors.

Alternatively, is there a precompiled version of the latest Eqemu SVN files available?
