zone.exe
 

Ok, every time I run boot5zones.bat, it boots up 5 zones but every zone.exe that pops up saying

[status] CURRENT_ZONE_VERSION: EQEMu 0.5.1
[status] Loading Variables
[status] Loading zone names
[status] Loading items
[status] EMuShareMem loaded

It just stays there and does nothing. My boot5zone.bat looks like this:

REM: ****Read this first!!!****

REM: This file requires your real IP in the place of "YourIP" when you are connecting
REM: To the EQEmu Loginserver.

REM: When you are using minilogin, Replace all IP Addresses to say 127.0.0.1

REM: If you still get errors try using localhost instead of 127.0.0.1

REM:--------------Start-----------------------
@echo off

if NOT exist spells_en.txt goto NOSPELL

start zone . 127.0.0.1 7995 127.0.0.1
start zone . 127.0.0.1 7996 127.0.0.1
start zone . 127.0.0.1 7997 127.0.0.1
start zone . 127.0.0.1 7998 127.0.0.1
start zone . 127.0.0.1 7999 127.0.0.1
exit
cls

:NOSPELL
echo You did not copy the spells_en.txt from your everquest directory to this one. Please do so or zones will crash on startup.
PAUSE

REM:---------------END------------------------


I have changed the ip part to my ip. I have switched it to local host. It just stays the same and never changes.

Ok here is mine. you see your problem is you need:
start zone . YourWebIp 7995 YourLocalIp

you can do:
start zone . YourWebIp 7995 localhost
localhost points back to your computer without having to go through any router.

do you know how to find out what ip is which?

oh and try looking at other posts first.

Sorry for the following newbie question:

How DO I find out my webip and local ip? And what is the difference between the two?

TIA
