Loginserver.ini (incase you can see an error.

Code:

### --- This file tells world.exe what loginserver to connect to.
### --- Leave the account and password field BLANK.

### --- Public Login is un-supported as is LAN playing. We reccomend using the EQEmu.net Loginserver ALWAYS.

### --- NOTE: Starting 6-1-2002, you can no longer use the word "Server" in worldname.
### --- NOTE2: the word "Server" is added to each server automaticly.

Now for 4 mins I thought I had it working, I was just trying to log in again and it loaded I created a char logged into neriak, no npc's and when I zoned it went black screen and stayed that way.

but its not letting me now, the above is the furthest i've gotten.
