Same here unfortunately, I'm using only files linked of the readme page here (Including Drawde's Worlddata) and I get this also after its done with npc_types. Has the world database been altered recently?
ERROR 1054: Unknown column 'npc_id' in 'field list'
I'm running WinXP and using versions linked of the readme page on eqemu.net (MySQL 4.0.12, Drawde's Worlddata 1.1beta4, Eqemu 0.4.3)
*Edit* aha, a little searching around goes a long way.
