Container Adjustments
This patch contains changes to several containers that can affect your inventory items. We've identified an issue with certain containers that had larger bag slot capacity than intended for the current era. To rectify this, we've implemented the following changes:

Container Updates: We've modified certain containers to prevent unintended bag slot advantages. They are now classified as NODROP, and their weight has been substantially increased. Consequently, these containers may no longer be used for tradeskill combines. In their place, we've introduced classic versions of each container. These containers will replace the older ones in various aspects, including merchant lists and tradeskill recipes.
Exchange Option: If you possess any of these modified containers, you have the option to exchange them for their era-appropriate counterparts. You may do this by trading them to the Priests of Discord in any city or a Shady Swashbuckler in East Commonlands.

Items Affected by these Changes:


Medicine Bag: Reduced from 8 slots to 6.
Lexicon: Reduced from 10 slots to 4. Weight has been decreased from 4.0 to 0.4.
Elemental Grimoire: Reduced from 10 slots to 4. Weight has been decreased from 4.0 to 0.4.
Book of Dark Bindings: Reduced from 10 slots to 4. Weight has been decreased from 4.0 to 0.4.
Tome of Endless Enchantments: Reduced from 10 slots to 4. Weight has been decreased from 4.0 to 0.4.

Here's what you need to keep in mind when making the exchange:

Ensure that the container is empty of any items you want to keep.
Exchange containers one at a time to avoid any complications.
The CSR team will not reimburse any items lost due to failing to remove them from these containers.

These adjustments were necessary to prevent any unintentional item loss in the extra bag slots.

Argh somehow my old slow mouselook problem has returned with this patch. I tried pasting a backup of my old EQclient ini file, checked to make sure fps is capped to 60 in there, but it's still acting as if my FPS is uncapped and I can't mouselook for crap. Anyone know what other changed files could be causing this that I could try using an old version of?

Ciderpress
10-23-2024, 08:43 PM
Yeah my mouselook is suddenly all jacked up. Horizontal movement is super slow compared to vertical. It was fine before patch.

MasterChupon
10-23-2024, 08:46 PM
The horizontal mouselook thing, I remember that being a problem waaaay back when I first started on P99. Back then I fixed it by setting the FPS cap, but for some reason that doesn't seem to be working now. I'm not sure how to display my FPS but it's probably in the 1000s. Slow horizontal mouselook means FPS is uncapped, but I've tried setting it both in the Alt-O options and in the eqclient.ini and nothing changes. If anyone has any ideas please help! Very unplayable right now!

this means you wrote over the folders completely (Resources, RenderEffects, SpellEffects etc) and now inside of those folders only have the patched files instead of ALL FILES+Patched files

No PoD in East Cabilis
No PoD in West Cabilis
No PoD in Field of Bone
No PoD in Warsliks Wood


I didn't bother checking Lake of Ill Omen or Swamp of No Hope. What's the point, right?

Any advice for this horizontal mouse look issue? Wasn't happening before the patch.

Changing max framerate in the options menu doesn't have any effect. I also have little physical mouse speed up and down buttons on my actual mouse and those don't help either- the horizontal speed is always roughly half the vertical speed and it makes positioning\maneuvering a huge headache now.

More mobs? all mobs? seem to do the diagonal run through buildings thing now.

Monk FD has changed in some way, OR some other streakiness thing is going on possibly.

Mobs with a huge melee radius will attack through walls and floors now, see ToV

lots more, just what's on my mind right now

Are "Block of medium quality ore" https://wiki.project1999.com/Block_of_Medium_Quality_Ore no longer meant to be sold in Kaladim with the removal of Harnoff Splitrock https://wiki.project1999.com/Harnoff_Splitrock ?

Seems odd Dwarves wouldn't have an ore vendor.

I think you guys went a little overboard on the increased agro radius. This mob agros from the sisters camp to the DE camp. That is almost like the protectors in Plane of Growth. Is this the intended result?

The changed containers retain their number of slots, but the "Combine" functionality no longer works.

More fail: No Priest of Discord in Thurgadin, no exchange possible, and no Tome of Endless Enchantments is sold in Thurgadin, either. That's one hell of a f'ing waste of time trying to get a new tome. :mad:

I was able to fix it for myself by using an old copy of dsetup.dll instead of the new one in the patch. Other people said using Nvidia control panel (or maybe a Radeon equivalent?) to force the game to 60fps fixes it also. The issue is caused because for some reason the game keeps setting the frame rate to 100 regardless of what you try to set it at.

I've extracted the V58 patch to my computer and to my daughters computer, hers will log into the game but mine will not I get the "one or more of your Everquest files are not the correct titanium version for project 99. you will not be able to play until the files listed in red are replaced with the correct version" the file listed in red is "spells_us.txt(295309369)", I've tried extracting the zip file several times and allowing it to replace files but still can't log in, I see there are others with the same issue any progress or suggestions how to cure this problem?

Everfrost newbie area is feeling way more classic, but the newbie side of West Karana has some BIG problems.

The treants are creeping around the north west corner of the zone, usually occupied by level 2-5 mobs.

This is obviously terribly problematic for evil characters, but it gets worse. The treants are almost level 30, and have taken it upon themselves to pump up the newbie mobs from like 40 hp to over treble that. You can't run away either - the animals now all have sow.

Finally, if you do manage to outfight a newbie animal, you're still not in the clear - if a treant paths close by it will assist that animal and just totally destroy any low level toon.


I don't remember WK being like this, especially not the lowbie area!

So yeah, great job on everfrost, but I believe WK needs some revision.

I think you guys went a little overboard on the increased agro radius. This mob agros from the sisters camp to the DE camp. That is almost like the protectors in Plane of Growth. Is this the intended result?

Can confirm gigantic Equestrielle Aggro radius. died to him 5 times on a single CR just running around the border of the zone. makes sisters camp unplayable to new players who don't have a friend or high level toon to clear equestrielle

I don’t really like how Verant fucked up newbie/travel zones with their inny / thule events.

I'm running into an issue since the patch - I can't figure out how to get Small Pieces of High Quality Ore. Before the patch the chisel could be used, but that has been patched out. I'm guessing now I need to rely on drops, but what mobs drop this?

Rygorr Miners in Crystal Caverns, and all sorts of mobs in Velks drop them. Statues, easy spiders in the front area, and Broodmother/master spiders all drop em.

Hello,
Thanks for the nice patch.

However, I feel the drop rate on "small pieces of velium" is way too tight, please loosen it up a bit. Four small pieces in over 2 hours of killing in Crystal Caverns. This has to be incorrect. Please investigate the drop rate after chisel removal. I can't imagine that it remained the same. If it did it was because Luclin was coming out with new stuff, and that would be unfair to the community to implement a change that was mean to be overrode by an expansion that will never exist. Please investigate, the change is putting many tailors out of business.

I reviewed and increased several the velium drop rates in Crystal Caverns and Velketor's Labyrinth. This will need a patch though.

Any chance of looking at/increasing drop rate for small pieces of HQ ore? I quite literally cannot find them drop from any mobs anywhere - I received a tip that it's a rare drop from goblin janitors in Runnyeye but there is one of those and the spawn time is about an hour and I camped them (and other runnyeye goblins) for 2 days with no drops.

Doesnt look like they drop from anything currently. Already set to be fixed once the next patch happens

How is "Nilbog: Original Splitpaw has been recreated. Additional credits to Telin and Dolalin. [!Dec1999]" not at the TOP of this post?!

Furthermore... how can we see it?! Literally been my biggest hope all these years playing from launch of P99 to now was to someday see the REAL Splitpaw again!

Won't be able to see it until they a launch a new server, but it's nothing special. Splitpaw became a better zone when they increased the level range, it was too low level before then for most people hunting in South Karana. It should get more used these days during the early weeks of a new server when there's a bunch of people level 10-20, since people will now be aware it exists and understand how to safely travel there, but it makes much more sense as a higher level zone.

Nilbog: Smithing Chisel may no longer be used to convert ore and velium pieces, bricks, and blocks.

um... why?
also... why?
there was always the ability to convert ore, why remove it?

Telin: Several changes were made to West Karana including adding missing level ranges, adding additional mobs, diversifying spawn placeholders, adding cyclopes as rare spawns, adding ghouls to undead area, removing spiderlings, and adjusting pathing for most mobs.

One of my low level alts zoned in from Qeynos Hills the other week, only to be set upon by a werewolf at nighttime. Unlike back in classic, I knew about strafing. Thanks for these finishing touches and the fix of nostalgia.

Why on earth after all this time. There goes my only solo mob for my cleric and my desire to keep playing. Looks like ill never get my first 60.

I used to do this every once in a while until the unclassic nerfs came and then weren't reverted back. Ultimately, it's best not to think about. Enjoy what you can and if it stops being enjoyable, there are other games, some of the best being released not too long ago.

If nothing else, p99 has done a decent job of showing how much interest still remains in old school MMOs, indirectly leading to newer takes/attempts on the neglected genre. It's still a good option until one of those classically-inspired MMOs is released. Just don't get as invested as you were back in classic because it's free, meaning infinite accounts, and a group of volunteers is at the helm.

The wiki says "Small Piece of High Quality Ore" drops from no mobs and is not available ANYWHERE in game. However, that means halfling "veil sewing kit" can not be made.

Was this intentional? Really would be nice to see proper receipts on the patch notes someone found that said these ore changes needed to take place. Pretty sure this isn't a change to match classic and is just a mistake.

Well if his stats were incorrect then it should be changed. Although admittedly I can't find anything posted in the past year that says they are, so I'm not sure what the genesis for this was.

At any rate, no disrespect intended but if you pick one of the most group dependent classes (since solo efficiency is not good outside of undead targets) then it seems a little odd to quit the game when you can't solo on it.

Why are you playing a Cleric if all you want to do is solo?

TL;DR Goblin janitor seem to drop it but it is possibly very rare.

"Equestrielle the Corrupted has a much larger aggro radius."

Seems to be almost zone wide.
