Smile My P1999 Linux Experience

Hello fellow Linux and Classic Everquest afficianados! As of yesterday, I played on Teal for a few nights filled with enjoyment and nostalgia. When I went to log in after work today, I did not see Teal in the server list, and was soon presented with an error on a spell file when I proceeded to select Green, assuming a server merge. I downloaded and installed the v53 patch, and upon re-launch of the client, I found my server list was blank.

I am running Ubuntu 18.04 on an inexpensive HP chromebook 14 I bought on Black Friday at Best Buy last year. I have been using the aforementioned p99-login-middlemand program to get around the blank list issue I first encountered when I installed the Titanium client and P1999 files. It stopped working for me with the new update, for some reason. I did only try it 7 times with no luck, before I went searching for an answer and noticed this post.

@loramin: What you mentioned about using a VPN to connect gave me a bit on hope to fix my issue. I signed up for a free Windscribe account and installed the command line app. Sure enough, I was able to log in and see the full server list, as well as enter the game with a decent ping. Thank you, Sir! [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

@Shuffels: VPN worked for me after Middlemand stopped liking me. I wish you the best of luck!
