My PC is a vintage replica of the one I had in 99 so no I do not use shadows, plus they look stupid

If you're using anything better than a Voodoo 2 for P99 you are a bad person and you should feel bad.

I run p99 on my potato powered abacus.

Man I miss that character select screen, it's infinitely better than the shitty Luclin screen. Did you have to modify a client .dll to do that?

[Zekayy]

Secrets pal post that on the bug report thing I bet that will get changed because thats far more classic than what we have now

nilbog's already aware of this, they just weren't able to get it to place the character at the right coordinates or something. Also, if it requires modifying client files they might be technically forbidden from doing it - they can provide new client files, but they aren't supposed to modify or redistribute the original Titanium client files. Makes me wonder if there's a way to do it by only using P99's dsetup.dll.

Does not require modifying any client files other than dsetup.dll

Normally I'd say Secrets should just make it an unofficial patch anyway, but if it modifies .dlls and stuff then that might be a bad idea and could get you flagged for cheating. Would likely need to be a staff-sanctioned thing.

Totally - if someone can get the client to use both the classic server & character select screens without invoking bannable file modification, you are my hero.

I appreciate his and Ele's totally indiscriminate approach to this stuff. I tend to think it's less about them actually wanting all of the inhibiting classic features of EQ and more about providing the concrete truth about how the game was in 1999-2001.
