Announcing the release of ShowEQ version 5.2. This version is compatible with EQ Live as of 9/13 and provides one major bug fix and some small changes. All users are recommended to update, though 5.1 does work against Live currently. If you are seeing malloc crashes (aborts) while zoning, this may fix your problem. If you are losing track of the zone server (only seeing MOTD: a lot from the world server), this may fix your problem.

Changelog:


purple (10/05/05)
-------------------
+ Updated version 5.2.0.0
+ Fixed item links in the terminal and message window so they match correctly based on the new item link format (thanks to ksmith and EQItems for all their great open info about items in EQ and being very on the ball with the last patch)
+ New races from .exe
+ Allow world logging from the commandline
+ Sanity check the max length specified in SessionRequest/Response so that we don't malloc huge amounts for packets. Check SessionRequest/Response length before assuming a packet that starts with the correct opcode is an EQ packet. This should weed out MS Teredo packets which were being seen as SessionRequests and causing all sorts of havoc.
+ Got rid of the unknown payload type utf8 warning


Fetch the new release from the files section on sourceforge (https://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=10131&package_id=13256&release_id=361704), or if you prefer to surf the irregularities of anoncvs, sourceforge will be updated probably by tomorrow sometime depending on cycle the moon and how many pennies are in the jar.

To install:


$ tar xjvf showeq-5.2.0.0.tar.bz2
$ cd showeq-5.2.0.0
$ ./configure
$ make
$ make install


If you have problems with ./configure, try:


$ LIBC=gnu ./configure


If you use distribution specific packages, I'm sure they will be along shortly.

Fedora Core 3, Fedora Core 4 and RHEL 4 rpms are up:

http://fedora.showeq.org

To install these on Fedora Core 3 for the first time, download both the maps and the application package, then go to the directory you saved them in and type the command


rpm -ivh showeq-5.2.0.0-1.fc3.i386.rpm showeq-maps-1.0-4.noarch.rpm

and the packages will install. As always, you will need to be root to install the packages or run ShowEQ. (If you're downloading a future version, of course the version numbers won't be the same.)

When you need to update, you will usually only need to update the showeq package, the showeq-maps package will rarely change. If you had a previous RPM version installed, just update with


rpm -Fvh showeq-5.2.0.0-1.fc3.i386.rpm

The SRPM will build on RHEL3 and other white box rebuilds if you want to go that route.

Note that I've built it so that it places SEQ under /usr/bin, and the maps and other files in /usr/share/showeq, and documentation is in /usr/share/doc/showeq-<VERSION> but if you're a keener on keeping it in /usr/local it is relocateable.</VERSION>

For what it's worth, I just installed Mandriva 2006 which was just released some time last week.

SEQ 5.2.0.0 compiles and runs fine; there are no problems with the packages they included in this release (packages of note: gcc 4.0.1, Qt 3.3.4, KDE 3.4.2, and libpcap 0.9.1).
