I am not a graphics guy but could you not just grab the graphic files from EQ2 and plug them in?

Will there be a graphics update on the weapons and other items as well?
It's not that simple. Graphics, models, and animations tend to be built for a specific engine. The graphics engines used in EQ1 and EQ2 are drastically different, not to mention that the models in EQ2 are dynamic (you can change the shapes of faces, eyes, etc), which adds an additional layer of complexity.

It's possible that they could be converted, but this would require reprogramming the client's engine entirely.
