I was an avid lover of Great Divide and still am and noticed switching from playing to live then to EQEMU the waterfall would disappear on EQEMU then come back when I played live on the SAME client.

The only explanation I could come up with was the waterfall was on the SOE database only.

I have wasted many hours in the past trying to figure this out but it is an EQEMU only problem...
This is interesting. Maybe it's like what Steve said, an unknown opcode not being sent by the emu? I didn't take that position for very long in the beginning because it didn't make sense that all the newest/oldest waterfalls worked but the ones in the intermediate eras didn't work. It seems like a waste of server resources to put the responsibility of waterfalls on your servers rather than the clients. I guess they get what they pay for.

You called some things to my attention I didn't know. Now I know what the patch_live.conf file is now. If you went from emu to live and vice versa, using the same client, that would seem to sum things up.

Thx for all the great feedback, gentlemen. I hope the poor soul that started this thread returns one day to see all the great feedback.
