it's a real struggle to get more than one character online at a time, so this is going back on the shelf for now [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

TAK was 3 box limit from the start. 2002 broke off and copied TAK.

This post is for continuity purposes.

Haven't had any issues lately with keeping boxes in. Did you try asking about it in the IRC?

Jaydee if you are expecting P99 level of forum and server activity any project will seem dead. If you log on and spend some time on TAKP you will realize the project is anything but. The goal of the project is to replicate and preserve the Al'kabor server with a high degree of accuracy while keeping things open-source. It isn't about having the highest population number. Al'kabor was a pretty quiet server anyways.

The 3-box online limit provides a nice balance between different play styles. People can't do everything on their own, and for the people that want to multibox, that option is there.

Pokesan, did you grab the latest client version from the wiki link I posted earlier? Or are you using another version? You can always post on out technical support forums as well.

If you run any other programs and they access directdraw, they are gonna crash the takp client. That includes things that dim the windows screen an pops a UAC prompt. You can edit UAC settings to not dim the screen.

There are plenty of programs that access direct draw and crash the takp client. Either don't start other programs after starting client, or get them all running before you start the client.

The crash can probably be found and edited to not happen. I have not tried to chase this down. I have started playing with eqw.exe testing different options. Have not done much there yet tho.

Downloading it now. I had been using the client I setup back in january. Worked well enough then to reach 17 - I take it there's been significant changes?

The eqmule 2.2 changes help a lot over older mods.

I have nothing against them, personally - we've resolved our differences.

Might wanna brush up on your stalking skills a bit.

The new wiki getting started guide makes it so much easier. http://wiki.takp.info/index.php?title=Getting_Started

And its only about a 2 gig install. So having it installed doesn't fill up ur HD. Its worth checking out if you have time.

I really wish this thread title had our project name in it if it's going to be TAKP's sole thread here
