Trevius corrected the error - thanks Trev!

Thanks

It should be build/quests or build/maps. A common error people get is having the duplicate folder in the directory. Thanks for pointing that out.

Just delete that file before checking out the directory via SVN. It's there by default when you download the server binaries, so it's safe to delete.

This step required several hours for me.

Holy crap. What kind of PC were you running it on? On my old P4 2.5 ghz PC, it only takes about 2 minutes.

I had to let it run overnight. The other scripts ran quickly though.

If you're running Windows XP (that doesn't have SP2 or SP3 installed), then I highly recommend downloading the AMD CPU fix here and here. That could have been the culprit. It shouldn't take that long at all on that CPU. My old Athlon 64 3500+ didn't even take that long, and it's only a single core.

There's a </server> at the end of your eqemu_config.xml file right?

Forgot to add that if you download the binaries from the google site, make sure you use the eqemu_config.xml.full one and not the eqemu_config.xml. Just edit out the .full at the end of the file, and you should be good to go. I just looked at it, and the default of that file is set to eq instead of what you specify it to be.

If you just use that file, and edit in your information, then you should be good to go. I knew there was something missing from the guide.

Make sure you take out the comment lines in the file at the top as well.
