When creating a new DEMO MP Server what is the tipical # of Monster Groups to be generated when populating the Dungon?
Also,
Now it seems that it keeps going to 0 groups and working it's way back to the end. It's done this more than twice. It says "check group # -Regen" Well most say regen. Is it saposed to be doing this or do I need to do somthing. Because I cant Activate my server til the dungon is populated.

when you first activate the server you should just click the ok button on the configure server screen and let the dungeon pop the first time this should take just a few minutes then it will always go thru the list repoping what's been killed if you didn't let the server pop on start up it may be corrupted.

Acturally I think I finally got it to pop now it's doing a check with no regen. Can the server be ativated be for this check is finished.

no let it fully pop befor you even try to configure it!
If You still have empty rooms deleat DEMISEServerMonsters.MIS then when you restart the server just click ok on the screen that comes up and let it generate the monsters list for the first time when thats done then you can click configure server and put in the masterserver addy just like in my sig and your ip for the connect addy and your computer name for the bound addy then click save then shut it down restart it and click ok or the demo server will lose the port part (:25537) of my addy if you hit save again

Cool but what I was woundering is is it okay to Ativate the server after it pops and it's just going threw and checking monsters to regen. and if so why wont it let me activate. The last time I did it still gave me the can't activate will populating. Then it whent threw fast like first run and poped then started the slow check but was regening every thing so I deleted the file and started over again. Will it let me know when it can be activated?

I did as you posted I think I'm still having probs. How large is the ServerMonster file saposed to be somthing close enough for me to have a way to know for sure. Also, in the Server do I need to worry about:
Error '[11001] Host not found' occurred in (DEMISE Server)modServer:ActivateServer!
