howto tutorial request
Could a developer please take a small amout of time and post a howto tutorial for my request below? When the packet collecter is up and running, those of us who use it also have our own eqemu servers up and running. When we use the packet collector and it generates a .pf file, the only option given to us it uploading it to the people who created the collector for editing. However, some zones in databases are still not 100% npc complete. PEQ for example, is infact a great database, the closest db to live yet. Their site says classic thru velious, however there are several zones even in classic that are missing alot of npcs that effect quest scripting. Now, for some non-questers it may seem un-needed to go back and get the missing npcs from live, but to the rest of us its needed; if only for our private servers. Please understand, Im not trying to bash anyone here.. I was just using PEQ as an example of missing npcs. Getting back to the request at hand, Im not looking for the source code of the collector, Im just asking for a howto tutorial on how to use the .pf files Ive collected from live to my own server, instead of being forced to upload them. Furthermore, I feel the biggest disadvantage over devs who have been around and people who are creating their own private servers, is documentation. Yes, theres a howto forum, but really documentation like the request Ive made above would really make a difference.. since this project is suppose to be for everyone who wants to host their own servers.
having to upload without being able to implement by myself makes me feel like Im in the 40's saying yes sir, no sir like a slave working in a cotton field answering to the man. does it really have to be like this?
