Consider Project 2002

You can tab just fine on a PC ...... Or use dxdepot. On a Mac just setup spaces and I space be the desktop

I know about dexpot and have used it.

Having to switch to another screen and manually hitting every single keystroke or mouse stroke between three characters is what I find tedious no matter if it is with dexpot or alt-tabbing. And I am talking about both servers, takproject and p2002. Id love if one of these servers either prohibited boxing or allowed MQ2 boxing between 3 characters. Allowing MQ2 boxing would bring a whole slew of other issues though and would not be a good idea overall.

To each his own though. I am fine on my own server boxing my raid with MQ2.

I tend to agree, the most boxing I can do is having a buff bot sit there while i just basically solo with another character. Actively playing two or more characters is just a pain to me and I feel like I'm focusing more on the mechanics of playing rather than just enjoying the game.

Pretty much agree with all of this.. It is kind of tedious with the tabbing back and forth, and you obviously can't get the best efficiency out of all of your chars. I played ezserver for a while, that is a whole new crazy set of boxing (6 and 12 man groups) so I've done the other end of the spectrum on boxing as well. Guess it really just depends on your play style and how much tedium you can put up with.

And what solves every single problem listed above?

Titanium.

[surron]

2 dudes on eqmac (same client ) who lead my old guild boxed 24 characters each, without mq2 (doesn't exist for mac). now imagine doing rallos zek with that client.

you guys just sound like a bunch of sweet 16 year olds who got a honda cake instead of a mercedes


edit btw this program i wrote eliminates the need for alt-tab http://www.takproject.net/forums/ind...-program.1647/

To what server are you referring?

It was p99. The devs name was Xzerion who I believe also led IB at the time but wasnt the original leader. I believe the backlash caused him to get removed from the staff but i'm not entirely sure because i stopped playing very shortly after this ordeal (but I think maybe he returned later? I dont know) This was back sometime in like may or june 2010.

It was a long time ago and I'm sure other people here know more about it then me, but from what I remember our guild (dark ascension) usually buffed up/afked at a certain spot (the raid rules at the time were first 15 in the zone, so guilds would get their numbers there first and then could afk for a while before the spawn). IB and DA were at war with each other and xzerion overnight changed the pathing of 1 or 2 icy terrors to path to that location to wipe the guild. The change wasnt listed on p99s patch notes until several days later (credited to Xzerion). With the immense hatred between the two guilds at the time there was no mistaking the act as offensive and certainly caused some controversy.

[BossThunderace]

my my, this thread has gone 'Off Topic' ..

p2002 like a baby right now, p99 like an old elderly person?

Check out the server y'all!!

[Omnifiend]

I tried p2002 for about 10 minutes, as Vanilla-PoP was hands down my favorite era. However, the lack of mouse scrolling to zoom out, and not being able to control the camera with my mouse was a deal breaker. Really kills the immersion, and I don't like playing this in first person.

EQ first person FTW!!!!

Mouse scroll wheel is for wimps.
