EQEMU v0.6.2, My Experience

It is true that different platforms will get different sizeof() results for datatypes. I did notice in that structure you mentied above that some structure members are declared as a float instead of the cross platform accepted float32 type, for example. That could result in a different sizeof(structure) result.

/*
** Player position update

struct PlayerPositionUpdateClient_Struct
{
/*0000*/ uint16	spawn_id;
/*0022*/ uint16	sequence;	//increments one each packet
/*0004*/ float y_pos;                 // y coord
/*0008*/ float delta_z;            // Change in z
/*0016*/ float delta_x;            // Change in x
/*0012*/ float delta_y;            // Change in y
/*0020*/ signed animation:10;     // animation
         signed delta_heading:10;  // change in heading
         signed padding0020:12;   // ***Placeholder (mostly 1)
/*0024*/ float x_pos;                 // x coord
/*0028*/ float z_pos;                 // z coord
/*0034*/ unsigned heading:12;     // Directional heading
         unsigned padding0004:4;  // ***Placeholder
/*0032*/ // COMMENT ME OUT!! uint8 unknown0006[2];  // ***Placeholder
/*0036*/
};

Simply comment out the last line, and all is well..

RadarBlipBox on the LoginServer is now running with this modification..try & see if anyone has any problems..

I'll definitely try this server once I get home from work. If this does turn out to be the fix, would greatly appreciate a link for any updated files! I have no way to compile any updates :(

Thanks,

wooohooo thats it i can move somewhere else and attack and it works on radarblipbox

ugh someone beat me to the fix!! hehe Good job!

I really wanted to find the fix for this one and it was staring me in the face the entire time. That line you comment out is the 1 to 2 byte difference in the structure size. I'll try it out and recompile now! woot!

cool, now who is willing to share a compiled binary

should have mention before NICE JOB had a burp in net connection but reconnected and is working great having no issues yet. well except for 2 skelies not liking me and killing me. But i was very much able to hit and do dmg again nice job.
