It looks wonderful to me being i came from items not being loaded to it taking 5 minutes for a single zone to get past EMuShareMem loaded... it would just sit there... but the problem is ...

I have double, triple, checked my eqhost.txt and everytime i put in my username and password in EQ and click login it says
error - a timeout occured
i replaced the 0.5.8 world and zone stuff with 0.5.6 and i don't get the items not loaded errors anymore or the EMuShareMem forever load.. but still

error - a timeout occured...

### --- This file tells world.exe what computer mySQL is on. Host should

loginserver.ini--------------------------------------------------

### --- This file tells world.exe what loginserver to connect to.
### --- Leave the account and password field BLANK.

### --- Public Login is un-supported as is LAN playing. We reccomend using the EQEmu.net Loginserver ALWAYS.

### --- NOTE: Starting 6-1-2002, you can no longer use the word "Server" in worldname.
### --- NOTE2: the word "Server" is added to each server automaticly.

Thanks for any suggestions...

I've fixed a few things...

miniloginaccounts.ini------------------------------

192.168.1.100 eqemu eqemu

instead of

192.168.0.100 eqemu eqemu


using the minilogin perl version... (*mental note*gotta make that executable can't stand having to download a compiler just to run something)

everywhere localhost i replaced with the systems static ip...

i guess i just need to uninstall EQ and reinstall from original trilogy cd's... you think that would work? that EQ version? or does it need to be newer but not newest? thats a little bit of a pain in the arse dontcha think? where could i get the correct version of EQ for emu 0.5.5 wonder if 0.5.6 would be the right ticket... /sigh
