ok so i have the start.bat coding correct but when I run it, the second window "zone.exe" flashs and closes in a flash.
I ran the "zone.exe" in cmd and this is the error msg's i got.
Failed to open log file: logs/eqemu_debug_zone_1432.log
[Debug] [ZONE__INIT] Loading server configuration..
Unable to load 'eqemu_config.xml': Failed to open file
[Debug] [ZONE__INIT_ERR] Loading serverconfiguration failed
I double checked the eqemu_config.xml file and its saved correctly.
below is my code
-----------------------------------------------------------------
<?xml version="1.0">
