For Instance I could not zone into Neriak as a DE. I got to the zone line and nothing happened. I am new to EQ Emu so if this is a thing...I don't know about it.

Generally that means your client is missing those zone files. EQ has updated several zones throughout the years, and in many cases the newer clients no longer come with the older versions of zone files. You could try downloading the client posted in the getting started thread and copy the missing zone files you need to your EQ directory.
Perhaps I could suggest to the admins to make a zip of commonly missed zone files and post that for folks.

The one your suggesting is the one I downloaded and am using to play the game.

Were you experiencing any latency during this time?
Excessive latency can cause a 'stutter' in player location to the server, essentially skipping the trigger local.

It looks like the classic translocator is sending people to the new Nektulos instead of the old one, and the Neriak zoneline isn't working. Thanks for letting us know  I'll let one of them know. |

Also looks like Neriak is missing in that file list. I got the files from EZServer. They all should work I think. Testing Neriak now.

Which Neriak files were missing from your client? When I went through and tested, they were there for me. I can add them to the list if we need to.

I can get some screenshots tonight if need be but when I get to the Neriak zone in it is the new revamped entrance not the old tunnel from Classic that they had for a long time. When I get to the part of the new tunnel in which I zone its like I hit a wall. I don't see any more tunnel continuing on at all and I don't zone anywhere. Same thing with Lavastorm. I get to the LS zoneline and there is nothing but empty space before me and I cannot zone. I can download the ROF2 folder again and see if maybe some of the files were corrupted when I downloaded originally. I think it might happen at WC also but I am not sure. .
Is it possible I have bad Nektulos Forest file or maybe a newer one?

I think I sorted out the issue. When I get home I am going to delete:
arena.eqg
arena_EnvironmentEmitters.txt
lavastorm.eqg
nektulos.eqg
Nektulos_EnvironmentEmitters.txt.
That should resolve the problem.

Deleting those files seemed to resolve the issue.

We probably need to make all these fixes and re-upload the client. And in addition to that, provide these details for those that want to run their own client. Chuckles?

It will take time for me to figure out where the issues are. I knew about Nektulos, not sure at what point Lavastorm and Arena entered the conversation.

EQEmu conversation about thisThere are four zones that are affected by these changes, for our purposes. Post #9 from Solid11 details the issue in short measure. Also: Highpass entrance needs to be adjusted for the newer zone-in. It currently places you in a fall condition inside the zone. (This may be an issue if you allow all Titanium and up clients, as both versions are available -- it depends upon which client you run. Someone developed a work-around awhile back, but I can recall neither who it was nor what they did, sorry.)

I actually did get the old Lavastorm to work on the test server. The zone and teleport points are all kinds of jacked up, as are all the mobs. 1 step closer  |

I'm a bit confused. Are you attempting to make the older zones default entrance? (Nektulos has been updated a few times, the last one is very similar to the origional.)
Titanium was merely the first client where we observed the zone changes. For defaulting to the newer versions, the renaming of .eqg files should work on all Titanium+ clients.

I was able to get them working. The arena adjust was just because I was copying that from another EMU Server.
