EQEMU v0.6.2, My Experience

I did compile a new zoneperl.exe last night, but it has another problem and I haven't had time to look into it, yet. It kicks out a run-time error from the perl quests and crashes the zoneperl.exe that generated it.

I was just doing a little reading of ActiveState perl's README and I see in there a blurb about Perl 5.8 not being compatible with earlier releases of Perl and "You have to recompile your XS modules." I believe the quest subsystem uses these XS modules, right? So either I need to recompile those or I need to back down to a previous release of ActiveState Perl? Like 5.6? I wonder if thats not what was tossing that runtime exception in my updated zoneperl.exe last night... My server does have ActiveState Perl 5.8 installed and I think thats a relatively recent release of ActiveState Perl. Anyone else running ActiveState Perl 5.8? Anyone have this working ok with ActiveState Perl 5.6?

for my 6.0 and 6.1 i used ActiveState Perl 5.8 and had no issues. for 6.2 i dunno i don't have a working zoneperl for 6.2 nor do i have perl installed yet from having to do a reformat.

Cool then I guess it must be a real bug in the zone.exe code. I was hoping it was the Perl 5.8 though when I read that README..

Anyone get a working Zoneperl.exe compiled successfully yet with the ClientUpdate fix? Loving attacking mobs on the server but hoping to start working on that huge collection of PERL quests I downloaded!

Thx
