Lowbie Brit LFG!

[Jimjam]

Hows it going Grotbags?

I'm a Brit too (but not currently living there!).

What level are you up to now? Where are you levelling?

There's somebody at the door.

That sounds bad. Are you in Jail?? Maybe we can set up a Bond drive for you on the Forums. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Shit's classic...

Imagine only putting mainly white kids in a TV program these days? Shit would kick off.

Nearly 13 years after I last /camped for the final time, I find myself fanning the flames for a light that has never gone out. Of all the MMOs I played in the intervening years, none matched what I experienced during my EverQuest years.

After another project failed to materialise, I stumbled upon Project 1999 from a chance YouTube video - a clarion call of nostalgia, and the need for a new laptop after my MacBook died. New Windows laptop duly ordered (last in stock), I have the opportunity to achieve what I failed to achieve when I originally played all those many years ago.

I only achieved 24th level on my Chanter because an alt Druid, then an alt Warrior interfered with my playing time; as well as spending an inordinate amount of time on the server board.

This time round I can be more achievement orientated, whilst still pausing to take in the beauty of the Karanas during the rain, and play on a somewhat casual basis over a long period of time. This time round, I'll roll a DE Chanter (as opposed to HE Chanter - whoop big difference [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]) worshipping Innoruok. Once a Chanter, always a Chanter.

Short-Term Goals:
- Cracked Staff
- Patchwork Leather
- Stein of Moggok (level 8)
- Bind in pot room

Medium-Term Goals:
- Unrest
- Najena
- Mistmoore
- Lower / Upper Guk

Long-Term Goals:
- Nagafen raid
- Vox raid
- Planar raids inc. Sky
- Chanter epic

Overriding Goal:
To have fun playing a loved game with people who feel the same way.

Hopefully see you all in-game from Friday (pending laptop delivery, config, and a Titanium config), Neriak Commons log, or EC Tunnel. Seriously, my heart did a flip when I read that there were nearly 200 players in EC Tunnel.

Play-time will be weekend mornings, and maybe Sat evenings (BST) if nothing else planned. All-nighters reserved for special occasions well in advance - to pacify my fiancée. The trials and tribulations of EQ in one's early 40s.

Cheers!

Corrections to above: Innoruuk and Raw Silk Armour.

Hmm .. may decide to go ERU as my race and start in Paineel. Decisions .. decisions.

Good lord! That was a kerfuffle and a half to obtain EverQuest Titanium. All done and Riotgirl the DE Enchanter is (re) created - albeit, the original creation all those years ago was a HE Enchanter.

Need to fiddle with the EQClient.ini file because I am experiencing the windowed issue i.e. mouse clicking edges of the screen in full-screen mode dumps me into windowed mode - and I am unable to re-size the window.

[Swish]

Set the game to windowed mode but adjust the resolution to be your screen resolution in the eqclient.ini file - that's how I've always played at least. Full screen can be annoying for a lot of reasons [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Dark elf enchanter = best enchanter!

[Riotgirl]

Thanks Swish. That seems to have worked.

Loaded Velious UI - just need to work out how to make the background of the UI windows translucent so that the windows are as intrusive as possible.

Re-read all of the commands again after Mr Alzheimer is rushing towards me with open arms, and then I will be set to customise the UI some more to my liking, set-up my hot-key and macro configuration, scribe spells into my spell-book, and start my nascent steps back into EQ in the best manner possible: killing lowbie mobs in Nektulos Forest, with a /Who list in double figures.

It is good to be back ...

I'm a Shaman, apologies for the afk, trying to finish an extension at home & mitigate wife aggro.


Swish - That cracked me up. I used to love that program (& yeah, that's where the name came from).

I'll be on next week as & when. Currently in & around EC still.
