Quest file re-processor

[mollymillions]

All of the downlaodable quests files for Drawde's database have not worked for me due to systematic syntax errors in the files and incorrect NPCID's. In order to overcome these problems i wrote a program to reprocess Quest files and correct NPCID's and a number of syntax problems.

The install is available here http://users.tpg.com.au/adslipjo/index.html

This is a win32 application and requires MyODBC 3.51 and MDAC2.6.

Use this app at your own risk. It will not modify the original quest files but creates new coppies in the directory specified.

Since using this app i have finally gotten the quests working!

Very nice, that'll come in handy for a ton of people.

Current version is 0.04

This would help me greatly.

There is a link on the (very cheesy) web page for the re-processed quests for Drawde's final 1.1 DB http://users.tpg.com.au/adslipjo/index.html

A lot of these quests are incomplete - they only have the initial dialog. If you have a more complete set of quests i would be interested in getting a copy.

There also seems to be a bug in EQEMU that prevents items from being handed over to NPC's?

you'll need to have a recent compile of the binaries from CVS for the hand-ins to work.

no matter how many times I run your setup program it tells me I have out of date files.
I have a decent quests file folder , if you'd like to PM me an email addy , I'll send it to you.

Thanks for the feedback, I hadn't tested the install on systems other than WinXP SP1.

I have repackaged the install with none of the dependencies included so that it will install on all systems (ensure you have MyODBC 3.51, MDAC 2.6 and VB6sp5 runtime installed).

That link for Drawde's database has a \ in it whre it needs a /. The correct link is:

http://users.tpg.com.au/adslipjo/Files/Quests.zip

The reprocessor has a messed-up link also. The correct link for it is:

http://users.tpg.com.au/adslipjo/Files/EQQuests04.zip

Hope you don't mind me directly linking to them.

You can download it from this page:

http://users.tpg.com.au/adslipjo/index.html

I have also updatetd the quests collection downlaodable from the same page (these quests have been processed to work with Drawde's final 1.1 DB).

Feel free to emial me if you have any problems/requests for the reprocessor.

Nicely done

Stop bumping! This isn't new stuff. Don't keep putting it on top.

[mollymillions]

Cheers Kyle.
I don't mind a bit of bumping (as long as it's between consenting adults).

Nicely put, Molly. I was just scolding Kyle for bumping every single >1 month old post that he felt the urge to reply to.
