[IAMadness]

I am getting a 1017 error (cant connect server , blah blah) but at same time World.exe is showing a unknown opcode 0x0286 , i am getting this on eq that has been patched to current patches , also have back up dir that hasnt been updated and that just crashes to desktop

I am gettin the exact same thing! I have tried everything, Even when I have mine set up for a local server I can see my server and everthing but I cant join it cause I get that same error as yours. If you figure it out let me know!

Hey guys, I dont know if this will work for u guys but this is what I had to do:

http://www.eqemu.net/?patcher

download the mdac thing at the bottom there and install that then i patched everything ok and now it works!

Woot , problem fixed , i had to use the patch program and download the source files and extract to same dirictory as eqemu was in , hope this help a lot becuase i never saw nothing about the source files in the readme
