help and idiot

I've been tring to get the program to work for over 3 hours now. I have followed the instructions in the read me files step by step more then once. I have tried both the regular server and the minilogen in and I can't get either one to work. I can load up EQW just fine and I can get to the server select screen on both the regular and the mini. On the regular program i was able to get to chr. select screen and even make a chr. As soon as I hit enter game at chr. select in the regular or at server select in mini though I got disconnected. Also everytime I run the world.exe file a box will flash and close before I have time to read whats in it so I haven't been able to tell if it's working for not. The boot5zones.win9x.bat file when i run it will scroll threw the 5 screen it's suppose to bring up but 3 of the screens won't have any text at all in them and then the other 2 will just have the comands with no responce. I have red/l the file's a few times to make sure I didn't pick up a curropt file but I could still have one. Any help on this would be apprecated.
Thank you,
Matt

I did some more work and I belive the problem lies in the work.exe and the boot5 file's. Now to go play around and hope I find it ............ fun fun

Now the only problem i have is that when i make a chr. I don't see it after i make it and also when I try to enter the game on what appers to be premade chrs as soon as i hit enter it disconnects.

I have everything working fine except that when i go to the chr. select screen and make a new chr. it won't make it. When i try to load up a chr thats already there it disconnects me soon as i try to load it. When i quit out and look at world.exe it says somethen about can't make new chr. or somethen then when ever i try to load up 1 of the already premade chr's it says this chr does not belong to this account. I'm 100% stumped on what to do here so any help would be greatful.

well, i have the same problem too, the character names are glitched and you cant enter the world, i think this is because of the patch, right? when the wonderous team here comes out with the new patch, then i think we will be able to log in

Have you patched your EQ client since the 8th? The emu hasn't been updated to accomadate the changes yet.

If so, you will just have to be patient till the dev's get done.

#1. Get rid of the loginconfg

"[LoginConfig]
ServerMode=Standalone
ServerPort=5999
UplinkAddress=
UplinkPort=
UplinkAccount=
UplinkPassword= "

Why are you using loginconfig?? eqemu 0.3.1 loginserver.ini does not have this, why are you using it???????????????????????????????????????????????? ?????????????????????????????????????????????????? ???????????????????

#2. The emu does not work with the latest patch. the emu does not work un-patched. you will have to wait untill 0.3.2 is released and then u can play again.

ok thanks the config thing was there so i just left it there. Now to wait till 0.3.2

Would someone PLEASE say where they are getting the file with the [LoginConfig] section! It is causing problems, and this needs to be addressed. But no one will mention where they got this from.

Shawn319 · #12 05-10-2002, 05:27 AM

It probably came with an early version of public login. dunno why people are using it.
