Hi there ok this is my first time compiling an EQ2 server and Ive installed all the needed things and everytime I go to build solution I get this:

Code: Select all

This happened evertime I go to options and add "library files" directory for "C:\LUA\lua5.1\lib" because it said it couldnt find lua5.1.lib if I didnt have that in the directory...can someone help me?I know how to do all this stuff its just really odd.

It looks like it is having problems find the Windows libraries. In the World Property Pages, what do your Linker -> Input -> Additional Dependencies and Linker -> Input -> Ignore Specific Library contain?

Additional Depedencies: odbc32.lib odbccp32.lib wsock32.lib zlib.lib mysqlclient.lib lua5.1.lib
Ignore Specific Library: LIBCMT,LIBC

What library directories do you have specified in VS?

Posted: **Sat Oct 11, 2008 12:10 pm**

C:\LUA\lua5.1\lib
C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.0\lib\opt
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Platform SDK\lib
C:\zlib\lib

Try adding the following:
$(VCInstallDir)lib
$(VCInstallDir)atlmfc\lib
$(VCInstallDir)atlmfc\lib\i386
$(VCInstallDir)PlatformSDK\lib
$(VCInstallDir)PlatformSDK\common\lib
$(FrameworkSDKDir)lib

Well rawr is there a way you can get me a compile? I would love that Im jsut wanting to use the server for my best friend

Here's some shots of my visual studio stuff:

I should be opening the very first one on this pic right? the VC++ Project?

It's been giving me trouble still and I can't figure it out

followed the instructions right and still this happens like I've said I've compiled other Emu's in the past but I've never came across a problem like this one.I would GREATLY!:) appreciate it if I could get a dump of a database and compiled source:) If its not possible thats ok I guess I'll just have to keep trying or find something else to play.

Er, the release announcement for 0.6 is a Win32 binary package. No compile needed. And yes, there is a support database provided once you set up the first time, just no spawns or details - just server structures.

Hmmm, Well I've tryed compiling again by redownloading the binary and source still no luck

.Gonna try to reinstall VS and there other SDK and stuff.

You do not need to "compile" anything if you have the Win32 Binary (EQ2World.exe).

Hmmm, Well everytime I start the exe it gives me this:

And if I scrolled down on the exe it says a whole thing about tables not existing
Here's my login config and DB config:

And here's my DB its empty for eq2 BUT has only one table as you can see:

You need to register a server account and put that in your LoginServer.ini file. Be sure to read the server guide for details. It is a little old, but the information should still be correct.
