Worked like a charm You now see the zone your shout came from! Fantastic

I apologize for resurrecting an old thread, but I'm trying to get this working on my server as well. I have the data replaced in my packet_system.cpp file as posted by tagban.. However, someone said to rebuild the server and that's where I'm not exactly sure what is meant. Shutting down the server isn't enough and I'm unsure what needs to be rebuilt. Can someone tell me what to do?

open it again in visual studio, hit f7

Thanks for the quick response. I'm not seeing a function for F7 in Visual Studio 2013 for Desktop within packet_system.cpp. When you're saying to open it, are you referring to the packet_system.cpp file or the entire solution? (I don't want to rebuild the solution if I'm not supposed to.)

You need to rebuild the map server. You modify the single file, then rebuild the entire server. You can't rebuild one .cpp at a time.

Thank you, guys! I was able to get it working after rebuilding the solution! Even set up a print out for our website to show the world chat.

I'm slowly learning how all of this stuff works. Everyone here has been very friendly and a huge help.
