DPS logger?

[Klaq]

Are these allowed? If they are, which one(s) do people recommend?

They are allowed. I like GamParse personally.

Sajan that GamParse looks lovely. Are the other two programs on that site also legal on P99? Any GM give it an ok specifically? Getting tired of adding DPS via calculator =P

[JackFlash]

GamParse is awesome!

GamTextTriggers and GamSettingsMover I don't know! The latter is just a settings mover/copier.

I'm not sure how GM's feel about the first one. Do we really have a need for text triggers? I think that it's classic anyway....

[Glasken]

Mostly concerned about GamParse, or an official word on parsers in general. The other two are curiosities.

Anyone have a link to a thread where GMs mention parsers? *runs about clicking and searching*

[Peekae]

Gam parsers / anything that just reads log files is just fine. As long as they done give you some advantage that you wouldn't normally have via programs like MQ etc

What Peekae said.

But the official word on GamParse:

Wow, thanks - I agree that GamParse looks great. Downloading now.

These addition programs should NOT be allowed in this classic 1999 server which adheres and keeps up with the timeline and all aspects of the game during that time frame. Honestly its a miracle wineq is allowed along with team speak or ventrillo which is so blatantly not classic, additionally i would like to pledge again my support of the devs decisions on what they want to be classic and what actually is classic.

So what would you do to enforce this? Remove log files from the game? Implement more code similar to MQ detection to catch those cheating vent users? Seriously a waste of time and resources.. Velious is more of a focus than telling people what third-party programs (that don't interact with eq) that they can use.

P.S. please enforce 56 k connections only and no hardware from post-2000

Hmm would mean I have to go up into the attic to find my old desktop and then buy a very old HD and reinstall my original eq discs that I have in a box up there also. Pay AoL for a dialup connection? Just to play on the P99 server and I thought new games were difficult to keep up with on hardware.

Actually you make very good points and no its not a waste of time the devs need to fix the broken p99 server before releasing velious, i am just so relieved you cant do account trades anymore that was a HUGE PROBLEM with this server. So glad they got rid of that before it could be way too overpowered for those big guilds on the server.

Vent/Teamspeak are just continuations of the very classic Roger Wilco.

[Pringles]

I had totally forgotten about Roger Wilco. Though, I mainly used it for Tribes and not EQ.

Before? Riiiight.

Damn, I guess I can't listen to Spotify while I play EQ Classic. Since we all know it winamp was the classic music player...

[mtb tripper]

yeah that would seem to make the most sense

[Ahldagor]

now i'm just curious of what orsk thinks of /gems

[orsk]

Gems is not classic, im just glad account trading is banned after being allowed for such a small period of time.

[koros]

Uh I used to parse dps in 2000. Verant didn't care what you did with your log files... How on earth is it not classic?
