Confused
 

I use to run a 4.4 server WAY back when, and that was you put a folder in your main folder called Quests. Then it took the files and read them. In 5.0 is is the same? If so, where can I get a completed version of them?

This is the best archive to date that I am aware of:

http://quests.eqemulator.net/files/perl_quests.zip

Visit the main site here:

Hmmmm, I am not familiar with PERL. I did download perl and the quests, but how do you attach it to your database to make quests work. Or, however you do it.

It goes like this:

Drive\EQEmudir\quests\shortzonename .
You put the quest, with the NPCID name .pl

Eg. If you have a mob called Bob_The_Person_To_Hail , with an npcid of 1000000 , and he is in PoK , I would save it in

C:\EQEmu\quests\poknowledge\1000000.pl

If you want a global quest , for all soulbinders etc. , save it in \quests\default.pl

Even on my 5.6 server I cant get the default.pl quests to work for any zone let alone the whole server. I can make quests work by calling out the npc id, but the item turn in part doesnt work for me.

here are the changes to make default.pl working :

Hehe, Im not that far in to the workings of eqemu and compilers yet. I have to rely on the compiled releases. Im reading and learning tho, just need to get .net and start there )
