It seems after I tried to run the other online game emulator, Eqemu woldnt start at all, well both emulators wont start at all now. Seems those emulators having port conflict or somesort.

should I change mysql port to 3307 or 3309 or something? and is there any program on how to check if the port safe to be used?

If anyone whould have any idea on how to run different emulator on one CPU, your help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you for your time and attention.

add: I tried to run rose online and EQ emulator on the same CPU, both seem to be crashing right now.

Currently on one of my sandboxes I run both an EQ emulator, as well as a WOW emulator. Shared sql server, just 3 different DBs to play with (eq runs 1, and WoW needs 2).

So long as the exe's that handle the incomming connections use different ports, you should be fine.

WoW uses ports 8085, 3724, whereas EQ uses ports: 9000, and 7000+
