Thanks, exactly what I was looking for!

I can't find any guides on how to add perl functionality to the cvs sourcecode, which seems strange to me, since there are guides for just about everything else.

If it's not too much trouble, would you mind writing one up? It would likely be very helpful in the long run.

Thats the guide I've always used.. it was very helpful maybe check it out

My pictoral guide to compiling if you have VS .NET 2003

[moadhib]

Thanks alot for this!

[mystic414]

Thanks, ajb20! Not sure how I missed those posts. Looks like exactly what I need.

I'll give it a try later.

Ajb, any chance you're going to do a perl compile of the latest release that fixes the black screen? ^.^

I have never had this problem...im useingthe perl compile of 10/19

[Xothin]

New release today that optimized login.

A lot of people were having issues with the black screen after character select if you had non static zones.

Hmm why do you have 6.0DR1 10-23-04 posted twice ?

?

[ajb20]

I date them for the day that I compile them, not for the day of the release, 9 times out of 10 it is the next day before they hit CVS anyway, so the Changelog is the day the updates were done, and the file name is the day I compiled the source code. So 10-23 is not really dont twice. Just look UNDER the file links for the changelog that goes with that file

[Omega]

Really great work!!!

Your 10/22 and 10/23 releases work great, however I seem to be having a problem with your 10/24 release. I can log in to a zone but I can not zone out of that zone. I have tried using the #zone command and just walking out. Each time I try to zone I get the message "that zone is not ready to receive visitors" or something like that.

The zones are static, are not crashing, and give me no error message.

Like I said your doing a really great job, I just wanted to give you a heads up

[ajb20]

I am just a messenger, the devs are in charge of those bugs but lets try this. 10-26 release is up maybe it'll be fixed
