I am very new to this emulator stuff, and am looking for some guidance. I have been lurking in the shadows for about three weeks now reading the posts and trying certain things. I am unable to get this emulator working, everytime I try something new, I get a little farther, or a little farther behind.
Also, I was not sure if this was the right place for this one. Or if the forum about connectivity problems was the correct place.
I have mostly only worked with the 7.0 system that is up. I have downloaded all the files and the instructions. Put them on a CD for safe keeping.
I initially tried this on my machine to do this locally, or at least a machine with a fresh install of Titanium. For me, it did not work.
I tried another machine, but formatted it first. Put on XP, SP2 and thats it.
So here is where I am at...
-I have XP, SP2 installed fresh. Reboot.
- I have followed this page
http://www.eqemulator.net/wiki/wikka...indowsServer70 and this is my step by step account
-I have installed mysql as per the 7.0 instruction page, rebooted
-I have installed mysqlcc as per the 7.0 instruction page, rebooted
-I have installed Perl, then opened ppm, and installed the 3 modules, as per the 7.0 instruction page
-I have installed cavedudes server pack, the 7.0 instruction page says 3.25, but what i was able to download was EQEmuServerPack-3.52
-While installing that, I chose 7.0 Server Files, Source Code, Mini Login, Quests, Cavedudes Database, Third Party Tools, Documentation, Minilogin Client
-I have edited the eqemu_config.xml file to show the Minimal/Recommened Configuration as per this page . . .
http://www.eqemulator.net/wiki/wikka...rConfiguration
-I then opened up a runbox and typed --> C:\mysql\bin\mysql -u root eq and hit enter
-I then typed in the now open black mysql window --> GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON eq.* TO eq@localhost IDENTIFIED BY 'eq' WITH GRANT OPTION and then hit enter
-I then created an account called player with as pass of eq and gave my ip address that i have on the lan, as well as the 250 code.
-I copied the spells_us and spells_en files as directed, however, they were already there.
-I have extracted the Map files to here . . C:\EQEMU\maps ( there are 262 files in here )
-I copied the two dlls as requested to the system32 folder on the server
-I then double click the Run EQEMU shortcut on my desktop.
-3 Black Dos boxes open up;
--c:\EQEmuWorld.exe opens and displays three lines
--- {Status} Using database eq at localhost:3306
--- {Status} EMuShareMem loaded
--- {Status} Loading Items from database: count = 54535
--0: sleeping
---loading server config
---starting main loop . . .
---and then it basically starts 5 dynamic zones at 20000 ms intervals
--0 Server(s), 0 Client(s) Connected
---{Status} loading opcodes
---server mode: MiniLogin
---Login server listening on port:5999
At that point, I edit the eqhosts.txt file on my titanium install. I point it to the adress of the sever machine. I can login with mini/mini or with player/eq no problem. But there are no servers availible for me to chose from.
I originally wanted to do this through a router and have it online as I have hosted WoW and think this is a much better game. I figured the best way to start learning this is Lan based Minilogin. So this is where I am starting to prove this works.
I appreciate any help that can be provided.
Also, it should be noted that when I connect with a client, in the 0 Servers, 0 Clients Connected box, I can see a connction sayiing ...
New Client from ip:10.1.35.32 port : 2312
