1rst download last eqcollector here :
http://eqcollector.com/HQ/news

install it, edit config.dat to specify your EQ directory

run it
go into tools/collector
in the upper right of the window, uncheck login and world, just check zone so only the zone datas will be caught

then launch everquest

go in these zones when there is no players there
( if there is always people there, choose a time when there is less players )
sit in a safe spot, aggro nothing, fight nothing, just wait like 30/35 minutes
then zone out, you'll have what we call a pathing log of the zone
it will appear in the eqcollector log window

when you have finished collecting, quit everquest first

then go into eqcollector
choose the log, check rename, uncheck all others, then hit process, it will rename the log
uncheck rename, and check create text dump, hit process, it will create a txt log, it is what we need =)

go in the eqcollector log directory on your hard drive
rename the log like this :
your name-name of the zone-pathing-comments.txt
in the comments specify if there is something special to know, for example if there is the boss of the zone up =)
zip it with the same name

then go in this site :
http://www.peqserver.com/view_files.php?filter=sql

there is a list of zones we need =) ( log-dump/zone status section )

register if you are not, it is needed to upload something

then go in log-dump/upload logs
and upload your logs

that's all =)
