I've watched your posts over and over, and they are always pretty much hold my hand and help me make a server. If you don't know how to open a file in a compiler, make changes and compile, you don't need to be using the dev releases. It's that simple.

Yea I ask for a simple answer here and there, once I find out what it is I remember it. Half the problems I have had putting a server together is reading obsolete help topics. Right now I know there is at least 3 different topics showing how to set up a server. Each one of these shows different databases to use and most of them leave you with a database that does not work with the current emu. That is the main problem I was having to start off with. Once I finnally found the right database files to use, and found the "AC" fix I had no trouble getting the server up.

I have seen how to program the quests in, it actually looks fairly simple once you have your database perl enabled. But If I have to own a expensive program like VB I can pretty much forget about perl enableing my current database. And I don't really want to start over after I have added so much to the database now.

Then I ask for something simple like "How do I make X zone the starting zone?" I get a vague response like "Edit your start_zone in the database." Instead of the simple type world.exe startzone X, which is all I needed.

What is the big deal about asking for a detailed answer of what to do? In the time you have spend telling me Im not good enough, a person probably could have wrote a book about how to set all of this server up. Im sure Im not the only person out there who has these questions. I mean I see some of the most simplest of questions answered in the tutorial section, yet I am deemed a fool for not knowing something like this.
