The source is the source that you can modify and compile the executables and dlls. The win32 is the executables pre-compiled for lazy people like me who don't feel like compiling stuff.

And no, it's not necessary to download these to play. Read the "README" and you'll see that all you have to do is change your eqhost.txt. heh

>> Need help!

I updated my 5.1 server. I put in the 0.5.2 update, then sql'd the new items and copied over the new zone.exe, world.exe, and EMuShareMem.dll. Now i'm getting 1017 errors.

There was a patch two nights ago, did this break it or something? I'm using minilogin and I have the eqemu/eqemu status: 200 account in. :/

-- Do you guys need packetcollector logs on augments?

Now i'm getting 1017 errors

Using Minilogin too and have the same problem. I've had a few glasses of wine though and just figured I had forgotten something and would try again tomorrow

I have just tried this as well. I tried with tcs's databse and made a new database with nothing in it and tried aswell.

I am getting 1017 errors as well. Useing minilogin to test it as well before updateing public server.

Dont use MiniLogin...its not supported in any way shape or form

[DeletedUser]

I realize most developers cry about questions on the minilogin, but I was hoping maybe someone with useful info could share.

[Puck6633]

What's the alternative to minilogin for us 28.8K fellows (and more importantly ones who want to play offline, the main reason I got EQEmu)? :(

[MrDoh]

Wellll... one of the fixes in 0.5.2 says that slower connection problems (i.e. dialup) should be fixed now.

LethalEncounter: Fixed a crash bug/1017 bug related to login in, people on slow/lagged connections should be able to login fairly consistently now.

You can put your server in the public list, but just change the config file so it is default locked. Anyone with high enough access level on your server can get into it even if it is locked.
Works well enough being public but locked, for me.

alright kool thanx for info guys. Still one question. Ive done a couple of searches but couldnt find any info on this. Im wondering how to bring up the Item Database window ingame so i know what the item number is. Ive only played once and ive gotten down the other stuff but wuz just wondering if the command has changed for 5.2 cuz i dont wanna be finding any old information if ya get me. Thanx again

[Tertiary]

#finditem ?

[thepooper]

how do I get my item appearances authentic again? eg. shroud of longevity looks white now...it used to be grey and authentic looking before i updated to 5.2...

Thanks for the info. Unfortunately it doesn't solve the more important problem of being able to play offline. (which is how I play 80% of the time) I guess i'm just stuck with 0.5.1 until minilogin gets updated or something else comes along. :(
