Is it ever going to stop?
 

Ive been sourcing a DR4 server file for over 15 hours now... does ANY one have an eta on how long this usually takes? I don't mind the wait, but I'd like to have some, even vauge idea of how long the wait will be.

Usually there never is a precompiled released version of any DR verion, only the actual release version comes precompiled. You can get it from http://cvs.biosprite.net/ bt you have to compile it yourself.

Right, which is what I've been doing but it's taking forever, was just wondering if anyone knew how long it usually takes to source cause this things been going for almost 16 hours now

OMG it's done... yay lol.. Sorry about this thread, just needed an outlet while waiting for 16 hours hehe, feel free to kill the thread.

lol,mine takes around 5 minutes and I thought it was so much.

3 mins for eqemu , its only a small project.
When i compile my emule-mods it takes more than 10 mins ...

Not that it matters, I still can't log in to my own server. I think I'm just going to give it up and wait for the DR4 final release unless someone happens to want to send me the compiled files... /shrug I just wanted to help out looking for bugs and enjoying being part of the server hosting community. /sniff no no I'm not going to cry... hehehe

no need for newbies to compile dr4 .
Opcodes are corrupt . now combat mode...

well I DO have access to EQ live for packet collecting. I downloaded the latest sniffer but it doesn't seem to work right. I start the exe file it pops open a command window for a grand total of a millionth of a second, then closes, leaving nothing that I can find running. Perhaps there is something wrong with the latest collector? Would explain why the opt codes are corrupted I think... anywho waiting for someone to tell me what to do. I'd be happy to help in anyway my limited skills allow me to.

You have to run packetcollector from a command line and pass arguments to it. Just clicking on Packetcollector.exe doesn't work.

Run it from a command prompt, not by clicking on its icon, and not by bringing up the Run: dialog box. If you just give the command packetcollector without any arguments it will tell you what all arguments you can pass to it, then exit.
