I more or less aggree with Lurker. I spent 2 days reading the forum only after doing the set-up as shown in the readme at least 5 times, it may have been 7, before the first time I posted for help. I could not find the problem. It was mentioned and in fact spelled out but I had no idea that the emu downloaded from this website was not the current one.
If there is something to do it is keep that link current because if it had been set-up would have taken 30 minutes. The readme tells how to do it in terms that can be followed by anyone capable of reading and following directions.
As for 3rd party programs:
the admin tool
packet collecter
item editor
etc
they are all nice but a newbi forum would not help since there already exists a newbi forum for them. It is called 3rd party tools. This forum from what I have seen in the last week or two is very well organized. You can pretty much tell where to post before you click the new thread button. You can make a good guess at where other people would have posted for simular problems by scanning the names of the various forums. Creating a hodge podge forum (called newbi) and dumping a ton of questions and info in it would only make finding the information one needed that much harder.
This is just an opinion of someone who has only been using this emu/forum for a week or two.
