No zone available

abaddon · #1 08-30-2006, 04:44 AM

ok THAT is the kind of info I have been looking for... thanks again Mage

I figured out why matt was bitching out the other guys about how you CANT run trilogy... I have a backpatch (didnt know there was a terminology for it) so I see why I could update my Trilogy up to current then back it down to 6.2) good good.. sorry for being cynical Mattmeck... Just as a veteran site admin I dont think it is PC to attack your members being critical to them when they have an earnest question.. some people dont have the years it takes to drudge through a forum that SERIOUSLY needs a house-cleaning.

Just one more thing. if you are only runing on dynamic zones you might have troubles with some bosses. I mean on live (not sure here) it took some time before the high end bosses pops up after a server or a zone reboot. So if you need to kill some specific mob you might need to have them poping manualy using a GM command ( I don't know which one actualy but #help should provide you with the exact ingame command )

heh I'll be happy if I can create a character and GO SOMEWHERE... did you follow the stuff up top yet? and see if that fixes your zone problem? I just got the info so I have to wait til I get home to adjust my DB.

hell I am happy to get to the character creation screen after the past year of trying to get this to work

Not yet actulay I am at work and cannot check in live. But as I have other issues I will probably have to reinstall my eqemu from scratch (once again) and try the solution Aramid provided to us.

BTW just a suggestion for the mods. Applying the changelog should be written in the wiki (if it is blame me... :p)

nods... what would be NICE is that if they are going to RELEASE a new package, release the DB with it... a 100mb db is like 6mb (3 if you use WinUHA for your compression agent)
there has been 30 updates to 7.0 since it's inception, I can see what *I* am going to be doing all night tonight.. *sigh*

If you don't want to make all those changes and you haven't MODIFIED your database yet, there is a guy named Angelox on these forums that shares his database with a lot of added mobs etc... You could just download his and source it in, then your good to go. Look for his posts in the forums....

Here, I'll go one better. Here's the url to his Website...

ok 2 points,

First, the forums do need a house cleaning, but we never ever delete any post, hence why there is sticky's and the wiki, everything you need is there.

That leads to the second point

The wiki is community run not developer / admin run, you want something added? Something outdated? Fix it.

<<added point>>

Ok so the wiki may be hard to find, people who ask questions that are answered there I always point to there. However when its something answered in a sticky at the top of the forum there posting in there a fucking idiot and dont get any respect from me, same with people who bring illegal activities into this community (backpatches), I wont watch this get shut down because there too cheap to pay $20. If you have them good for you, dont talk about it on these forums.

point taken on the backpatch... as I said I didnt realize that there was a term for it... I got the patch from who knows where like last year and was using it as a matter of course (I have so much crap for this server program now I really have lost track of what was legal and what wasnt... ) so my mistake on that route.

my point on the aggressive commenting was that anger breeds like wildfire, you make a vicious comment, they make one, another person chimes in and it goes downhill from there.

oh.. the wikki isnt hard to find... its broken

abaddon · #9 08-30-2006, 07:34 AM

thanx aramid your a godsend... since my last post I made all the changes in the log that is included with 840 from the point where it says CHANGED VERSION to 0.7.0, but when I booted up the server and the game (even created a new character) it still wouldnt send me to the zone (the new char wanted to go to queylos or somesuch) kept saying zone not available (and at the time I was running 10 dynamic zones)

hopefully this other guy's DB will fix the problem

in anycase, thanks for you help... in my time in dealing with this server thing I have only met a couple people who REALLY tried to help... up until recently it was only one person (cavedude rocks) it just seems whenever I had what seemed to ME to be a serious question (especially since I dont know the forum lingo or the intricricies of your programming to know EXACTLY the term of that to search for) I would get slammed by people like Mattmeck and as I said before I run sites, I have a new one now that is still in development, but I ran Withoutsin.com and Lustmybody.com as well as many others each with very powerful forums and I demoted my mods if they spoke to my users the way mattmeck does, regardless of intentions.

abaddon, from your very first post you have been full of yourself, I checked your post history and you were never once bashed by me in any way. To be exact you were the one bashing people.

SO how about you stop now or get a nice IP ban from the entire community kkthx~

I edited out a lot of what you said above because I am only going to comment on what I left in your quote.

I USED to think the same thing you do. Then after being active on here for a few months, I can understand WHY he does it. Just stay active for a couple of months and read ALL the post that have the SAME EXACT questions in them most from NEWBIES that DON'T take the time to read or attempt to search. One of the Biggest Questions is answered at the top of the forums. One person even copied eqemu files into his eqclient folder. Yes, it takes time, but that's what these forums are for and why there is a search feature. I've only been here for a few months and I'm getting the way he is too. I read & searched everything when I setup my server and when I had a problem, I read some more and searched some more. I was able to get it up and running without asking. It's ALL here, you just have to find it. It just get's old quick when the questions are repeated constantly. NOT raggin on you guy.. just giving my opinion....
