They're trying to recreate the game exactly as it was... UI and all. It will only support up to the original Trilogy client.

These emus are more akin to reverse-engineering the current game and making an approximation of what things were like.

i mean, will that actually be significantly different from p99 in terms of end-user experience? or is it just a talking point?

If they have their way the UI will be similar to that of the original EQUI in 1999.
Not sure if that's points for or points against to be honest.

lol if thats the only difference and its taking them 6 year to implement it id say its points against

I don't really know the details beyond their goal is to actually recreate the game exactly as it was, and that apparently involves years worth of work.

They also plan to have spellbook-in-face meditation.

Someone make a thread and see what happens.

Tried that long ago, i think they check every post on the forums before they allow it, and mine was blocked.

Nazi leadership, impossible development goals, and next to no evidence that they're making any progress?

seems pretty legit guys

I check that site out occasionally to see what kind of progress they are making. "Occasionally" has become less and less frequent, since it might not be done for years.

Am I mistaken, or are they not planning to host a server? Just developing the client for others to modify/manage?

I used to be one of the people waiting for EQclassic before i knew about p1999.
I was so pissed off that i had been waiting so long and found out that this server had been up for an entire year.
I tried to post on their forums about how great it is here but they blocked my posts and said I will be banned if I try to post about p1999 again, I sent them a PM back that I don't give a F**k because they are just wasting everyone's time.
Their project will never be done, and they do almost no work on it anymore.
