I assume you are referring to this zip file that you mention in you earlier post:
EQEmu-Rev2022-Bots.zip
I have actually never done it that way, so personally I am not sure if that works. Probably does. Anyone?
My process for applying updates:
1) Backup.
2) Right click C:\EQEmu\EQEmuSource folder and select "SVN Update" and get the latest stuff (I have obviously installed Tortoise SVN, for anyone scratching their head).
3) Open MS Visual C++ 2008 Express and recompile as outlined in this thread:
http://www.eqemulator.org/forums/showthread.php?t=32293 (I do have some custom C++ code that I want included in the update, that's why I re-compile from "scratch" so to speak.)
4) For me I go here: C:\EQEmu\EQEmuSource\trunk\EQEmuServer\Build and copy the .exe files, and the .dll file to my main server folder (this is also outlined in the above linked guide).
In fact, I need to do this again soon, so I'll complete the process and edit this post if I remember something else.
