*scratch**scratch*

Seriously though - to each their own on it I guess. I'm not gonna say how anyone else should look at things... but I'll be running the classic... why?

Because - like it was said above... I'd like to see other players in the form they intended others to see them in. If you are using Luclin graphics, it will be subjectively better on your end, but I'll see you '99 style.

And that could be a multi-colored dwarf with reg pigtails.
Since 'classic' was the concept - even for the models, that's how I'll be rollin'.

Not going to hate on different opinions. I really don't mind the Luclin graphics - for the most part, but the humans and DE's stand funny.....

Another post burned up by the haters. Do we need to start a who's more classicer thread?

I think it's pretty cool he figured out a way to do this.

Id be interested in trying this out, but that "major" bug is a bit too much. Im currently lvling in HK and often use the HPH to get around. It would just be too much a hassle if that zone was broken.

Is there any other way to enable the graphics? Or another way to turn fix the bug?

I spent a lot of time trying to figure out why this works in SoF so that I might be able to try it in Titanium. But I just don't have the knowledge of the client, let alone the file structure. I tried moving files between the two clients and got nowhere. From what I've read on the EMU forums, the issue with HHP has to do with the SoF client executable. It looks for the revamped version instead of the old version. I played around with the files a little bit but I couldn't get it to work.

I know that at some point, probably prior to the character loading screen, the server and the client exchange information about enabled expansions. That information presumably is still the same regardless of what client you are using. If you use a new account, and connect to P99 with the SoF client, you will see the old models. If you then connect to a server with Luclin enabled and then go back to P99, you will see the Luclin models.

At this point, I don't know enough to do more than speculate. If anyone else has more detailed knowledge, I'd love to hear it.

Was trying to get mine to look more like this.

Just taking FOREVER to download the client at 300 baud on, I think the handset on my rotary phone is all full of static.
