There are some things you will need to do to make the BOT Source work. 1st of all, you only need to compile the ZONE folder that it comes with, however, b4 you compile it, you need to change the makefile and makefile.common in the zone folder with the following changes...

In makefile find this

DFLAGS=-DEQDEBUG=5 -DCATCH_CRASH -DNO_PIDLOG -DSHAREMEM -DSPELL_EFFECT_SPAM -DFIELD_ITEMS -DCOMBINED -DAPP_OPCODE_SIZE=2 -Di386

and change it to this

DFLAGS=-DEQDEBUG=5 -DCATCH_CRASH -DNO_PIDLOG -DSHAREMEM -DSPELL_EFFECT_SPAM -DFIELD_ITEMS -DCOMBINED -DAPP_OPCODE_SIZE=2 -Di386 -DEQBOTS

in makefile.common

../common/guild_base.o guild_mgr.o

becomes

../common/guild_base.o guild_mgr.o botRaids.o botAI.o petAI.o

Once compiled, just copy the compiled ZONE file to your server folder and run your server.

Thanks,

Will do soon as I get around this active Perl issue. I used the older version like the post mentioned just that the binary form of it is throwing me off.

Will get it figured out soon enough, gonna make some lunch now.

Thanks again for the info, was curious how to use all that data.

Thanks!

What compile method should I use to get that folder to a Zone.exe I run vista and dont have a right click compile feature. Have a compress and what not

thanks in advance

if the binaries work on Vista, why don't you just download them? Do you have a compiler? VC Express is free and works if you don't.

Yes, just download the compiled version, what I mentioned above was for Linux. I use Linux, so I figured everyone did .. lol

Well had a slight unforseen setback...

My mobo crashed on me, so had to order a new one. Then I said screw that so I upgraded processor and mobo so should be rocking next week. Hopefully Tues.

On a friends laptop right now, thanks for the posts of help. I will start on this again, in a few days.

Why would I want to use a stable Linux server? When I can run a confusing Windows server thats caused a few problems for me, jeez

On an off note, did try a server with bots. They stayed on lvl 1, and were naked the whole time. That a common thing?

Thanks
