Been having a problem with a few builds now where my zone.exe would crash when I created a new character and first entered the game. When this would happen, I would just change their location to PoK w/locs and I could login fine after that. I never really bothered to figure out why it was happening.

Today I had some free time and dug into it a bit more. There was nothing in the logs that stood out as a problem to me. One of the last entries was the loading of tutorialb.path. When I renamed the file to tutorialbBAK.path I was able to zone in without any problems. It makes sense now after the fact.

I've read here and there where people first starting up servers were having unexplained crashes. Those who might have a problem like this, might want to raname the above file so it doesn't load or change your World:TutorialZoneID value in the rules_values table to something other than 189. 189 is the zone number for tutorialb aka The Mines of Gloomingdeep, for those who don't know.
