So I'm assuming p2002 is the more populated server? And it's the native first person version of EQ correct? I may get on this just to experience an expansion event..never had the chance before.

not really, you can view in 3rd person just not with scroll wheel.

if you guys would just kiss, make up, and merge servers I'd play there for sure. it sucks having two PoP servers unplayable due to nerd slapfights

They are run different ways. One will end up doing better than the other. One server will end up the Fippy and the other Vulak.

And a note on contributing: The merge delta for back merging all our database and quest work would be enormous our database ids will not align correctly with tak's. you can't merge a database like you can with source code.

It doesn't matter because Rob and I would reject most of your database edits anyway.

DB work is different than code in that it's more subjective. Both teams fundamentally disagree on very basic things such as drop rates. P2002's drop rates are way higher than I would deem acceptable. The loot tables are not even 'compatible' because they refuse to merge the KLS loot code fixes. Not to mention the many lootdrop errors like incorrect hate mini drops.

I also just edited NPC stats for literally almost every NPC in the game after classic, so overwriting our NPCs with theirs would end up reverting NPC stats back to PEQ's bad values.

So I considered project 2002 and I read that there was ~70 people on usually including the 3 boxing. Yeah...

If anyone sees a wrong value for our drop rates (they are all available on our AllaClone), they are encouraged to report them on our bug forums.

I think you are missing the point.

They wanted to have a master db and code. And the p2002 intentionally diverged so stuff could not be patched backwards to takp. Basically a huge slap in the face to the takp team on what they were trying to achieve, when p2002 is constantly doing a comparison to takp.

There is no longer a valid comparison between the two anymore. P2002 is a fork from takp. They are now being developed independently basically.

Why are we back to squabbling? You do whatever you want with your database, we'll do ours. We contribute back what is comparable....ie .path files and lua's.


Torven you are an excellent troll, your trolling skills have been proven. Why don't you spend your energy telling the world how great your server is rather than attempting to shit on ours?

Thanks
