How small can you get it?

[mixxit]

Hey all,

If anyone here has the skill i'd like to try to get everquest down to the smallest possible size but still fully functional with Project1999.

This is for an experiment in embedding the game inside a website.

Cheers!

Mix

Too big

Needs to be alot smaller than 1gb - preferably without kunark or velious

Buried in that thread somewhere Secrets was talking about a bare bones version he uses to test. Mebbe ask him about it.

I've managed to write an ActiveX plugin for EQ inside a browser and just need to write the NPAPI one for firefox/chrome

The smallest I have got the client so far is 762mb (zipped)

I am sure some of these files could go (like the potime one is pretty huge) but not sure what else. Any recommendations? Maybe some of these three digit npc models?

Time files for sure, and this zone also.

As for the NPC files, i'm too much of a noob to recommend anything constructive.

Make me an ipad version :D

Is it safe to say that you can remove files for zones that you personally never visit? For example if you are currently playing only low level characters on Antonica, couldn't you erase all other continents and upper level zones and be fine with just the few that you need to load?

It might not be much but could you get away with removing some of the different sound files?

If you ever get EQ into a web browser, my boss would really appreciate it if you never, ever told me about it.

Thanks :-)

Indeed, I'd end up unemployed. Then I'd have nothing to do but play EQ.

I think this thread should be renamed or somebody should make up a new one that just shows all the EQ-mini and EQ-droid instructions.

This is great stuff and should be easy access on the tech forum.

I have an original EQ disc still..

If I get a little time, I could install just EQ Vanilla and add files from the Titanium install until it works.

And catches you can think of with that?

I was thinking - install original and replace the .EXE's with stuff from Titanium - is EQGame.exe what determines the ports to be used?

[guineapig]

Not sure Overcast but I bet somebody here knows the answer.

Also I think there can be a few different versions.
1 with no music files
1 with no music or environmental sound files
1 without any sound files
