No, you can't. For someone who claims to have read so much I'm surprised you haven't picked up on this yet.

This server is not a democracy, this isn't about what "people" want, and I guarantee it has absolutely nothing to do with what you (or I) want. This server is about what Rogean/Nilbog/Sirken and the rest of the team wants, and they all have been VERY clear that they want as classic of a server as possible (with exceptions for game-breaking exploits or technically impossible issues like nightvision). Everything identified in this thread as needing fixes is about achieving that goal. Their goal.

In other words, it's their world, we just play in it.

First of all this is a democracy... on occasion (alright not really but they do seek feedback sometimes):

Global Auction (shits not classic)
Boxing rules (shits classic)
Translocators (shits not classic)
Serverwide Messages (shits not classic)

Secondly I'm not asking for a vote, nor am I trying to convince the staff of anything. Reread my posts, never do I address the staff at all, in fact quite the opposite.

Thirdly this will be my last post as I want this thread to die (yet another way for me to vote).

Red's not classic, and deliberately so because: A) classic PvP never worked in the first place, and B) the server would have a population of five without those not-classic tweaks.

Not classic at all. First off, boxing during the classic era required the use of third party programs like EQW (the EQ client couldn't run two instances at once), and they were banned. So really the only way to box legally in the classic era was to have two physical computers and two paid EQ accounts. That requirement can never be re-created here because P99 is legally prohibited from charging for accounts.

In other words, paid boxing (classic) is impossible to re-create, and free boxing wouldn't be classic. Plus you *can* box here: you just need to pay for two separate internet connections and hope the GMs don't see you. That's fairly equivalent to classic where you needed two EQ accounts instead of two connections, and you hoped that the GMs wouldn't catch you using EQW [You must be logged in to view images.

Wow, that's ancient. And they got rid of them, perfectly classic.

Again, ancient, and again doesn't exist on P99.

Look it's very simple: the server team does their best to keep this server classic, and they don't give a rat's ass what anyone thinks of it. If the best examples of "democracy" or "un-classicness" you can find are more than half a decade old then or only on Red I think you've proved my point.

So you don't want to convince the people who actually decide whether to implement this stuff, you just want to convince the random people whose opinion has no relevance? That makes perfect sense.

There is no scroll zoom in any view, not in the Trilogy client at least

They only patched the camera to automatically rotate behind you when the mouse was released

There was also a keyboard command to move the pitch up/down

Made a modification to the chase camera mouselook code. Moving the mouse forward or back in this camera view will make the camera move up and down, and the camera also automatically pitches to keep your character in view.

f9 takes you out of first person. insert/delete zoom in out and page up/down pitches the viewpoint.

Because it would suck to figure out.

Now now Haynar.. If you wanted it to be easy... you wouldn't have become a developer for P99 =)
