Code:

if ($text=~/Hail/) { quest::say("Hail there $name $+ ! How is your day?"); }

Is the proper pearl format, maby this is the issue?

and this should be the proper patch

ok forgot to put the diferences

if ($text=~/Hail/) = pearl example

if ($text~= /Hail/) = yours

What did this have to do with pathing? You simply wanted support on a simple HAIL script.

Actually, starting with a simple hail script is always best.. then maybe adding a 2 item turn-in or something a little more advanced. To get a good perspective of how quests work, a good tool to download would be the "Quest Editor" so graciously written and released by Muuss (thx again man, I still use this and love it).

It takes even beginners and allows them to just click one or two properties and then it creates the script and saves it to where it belongs. Check this post out: http://www.eqemulator.net/forums/vie...8b4785f65a2d8b

Old quest format: :\eqemu\quests\*.qst
Perl quest format: :\eqemu\quests\*.pl

Good luck :)
