Lootable item on a pvp kill

Hmm yeah I can confirm that it crashes the zone. That shouldn't happen :( I'm not really smart enough to look into it and figure it out. Maybe someone else can figure out whats causing it.

Hope someone could take a look at it....

I was able to reproduce this and have submitted a fix to stop the zone crashing in Revision 29 on SVN. If you can't compile the source yourself, just wait until someone builds another set of Win32 binaries.

SVN stands for 'SubVersioN' and is a source code control system. Cavedude posted about it here:

http://eqemulator.net/forums/showthread.php?t=26376

Anyone can check-out the source code from there, and there are also occasional Win32 binary releases (click on the download tab). Every time new code is checked in, the 'Revision Number' bumps up by one. If you click on the 'Source' tab and then click on Changes, you can see a list of changes in each revision. As I am writing this, the latest revision is r29, but the latest Win32 binaries is r27. If you can't compile yourself, you'll need to wait until there is a revision29.zip (or later). The Win32 binaries on that site have to be created manually, so I can't say when the next one will be released.

This probably deserves its own thread, but since you're explaining it here, I'll ask -- Is there a reason that I'm getting an error trying to run eqlaunch.exe from the binaries on the new SVN? I've never ever had a problem with any binaries posted here to this site, but for some reason eqlaunch.exe doesn't want to run when I use any of the binaries from the revisions mentioned.

Because of this, I can't run any dynamic zones. I've been able to get into the world successfully by launching static zones and making sure my character is logged there but this isn't ideal, as I'm sure you can imagine =) Just wondering what the difference between the two is. I imagine it's a difference in the method through which they're compiled, but was hoping to have some light shed on it. Thank you for anything you can offer.
