Bugs in 5.7 DR1

[WildcardX]

Hello. I just got done running around on TCSWorld's 5.7 DR1 test server and noticed the following bugs:

1. No zone back to spawn point following death. When I died, my view changed from 1st person to 3rd person above my corpse, and I saw myself laying on the ground, but my name did not change to "Player's Corpse" and I never zoned back to my characters spawn point, the game just let me hang there and I had to /q to recover.

2. I #zone to Ssra Temple and arrived at the IZ. Once I opened the door to enter into the dungeon more, i warped back to the IZ and got a message that "player is below the world at x y z. Transporting to a safepoint."

what do you mean by "default header"?

I just used a different zheader and it was fixed.

[Gonkers]

ah zone header.

what i did was I #zuwcoords -5000 (zone underworld coords) and it worked.

How did you die? If you die from non-melee damage like falling or lava, the staying unconscious without dying thing is a known issue. If you died from a melee hit... well looks like they might've put in a new bug with 5.7

From the date of the 1st post Id say he is using the old 5.7dr1 version. There is another one that was released yesterday that might solve your problems.
Take a look here for more info...

Does anyone have a compiled version of 5.7 for download?

Hi, I just started a couple days ago. I have died twice to melee damage and had the same thing happen each time. 3rd person view looking down at myself on the ground. I see 2 you have died messages. Game is locked up.

The first time, CTRL-ALT-DEL showed me EQ was not responding and I was able to end task.

The second time, CTRL-ALT-DEL ( took so many repetitions I thought PC was gonna reboot ) showed EQ as running. I went back to it and got a black screen for about 20 sec then it crashed to desktop.

Both times my Winamp was running normally in the background to show me that the PC had'nt completely frozen.

After about 4-5 minutes the 'client crash' message appeared and I was back at my desktop.
