OK... I Am working on a very complete Filters.conf. file for everyone. I am having a small problem however and don't wish to continue intil I can figure it out.
I have a question.. I can not get Names with a space to work.
Please see the examples below.

[Locate]
# The Overthere
Name:[^:]Admiral_Tylix[^:]*: // will not work.
Name:[^:]Captain_Rottgrime[^:]*: // will not work
Name:[^:]General_D'Veers[^:]*: // will not work
Name:[^:]*Genera*^:]*: // will show general D'veer
Name:[^:]*dragoon[^:]*: // Works.

# END Locate section


If you can offer ANY light on this i will finish my file.. I currently have most spawns from Eq and kunark, and have recently added alot of velious, and luclin spawns... I have almost my entire Old filters.conf into the new format. However i do not wish to continue with all this work. if i cant get a simple exact string to match... I tried several different ways.
Please help me figure this out and i will keep the filters.conf Updated..
PS: i have the filters broken down by zone in the file.

I havent been able to play much EQ since luclin came out, but I believe my filters are working.

All of mine look like this:

Name:Admiral Tylix

I know that some of them work. I dont know if the above example does work though.

If you want to look at mine, you can view/download it from:

Hope that helps.
