P99 Add-Ons - Page 5

Way I see it, these Add-Ons like Gina or whatever else people are talking about just take me away from Classic EQ.

I don't care to argue if they make players better or worse, they just take away my nostalgia and the purpose of P99. To me the point of the project is to appreciate a game how it was back in the day, not to enjoy the game with extremely modified UIs that let you more easily interpret information.

I used 1 chat box back in the day on Live, that's the way we liked it. I was a melee too with full battle spam going on, no stupid voice chat or anything, and relaying raid instructions via /shout or /gu.

Yea it was stressful at times and I missed some key things, but that was part of the craziness of EQ. This Gina makes it seem more like WoW.

This is true also. We need some more bumps in the interface thread: https://www.project1999.com/forums/s...ight=Interface

Maybe some hero devs can do work. Or hint at us that the age of the Titanium client is coming to an end and the Trilogy or PoP era client is coming in, fixing all these issues.

What about Luclin char add-ons? Are they not allowed? I've heard whispers of them but if they're not allowed I won't track down this mythical creature. I'd switch back and forth before they were patched out. Change of scenery type of deal.

Sirken?

I mean, I know it's not classic, but I do miss being able to right click on a spell gem and getting a categorized list of my spells. But that eliminated the need to organize your spell book, which as you know is great fun too.

What luclin add on are you talking about?

If you mean a UI that was built after the release of Luclin it is not necessarily against the rules. In fact, it wouldn't be unless it was somehow displaying information or allowing you to interact with the game in a way that wasn't possible with the Velious UI.

I can't believe it, Rygar. We are like twins in this regard! We both like our EQ to be as classic as possible.

If you don't like Gina its okay to say you don't want to ruin your immersion. But implying tracking buffs somehow requires skill is cute. Do these people also insist on not using tv remotes and getting up to change the channel?

Luclin models, sorry. They were removed for a reason but I thought it had to do with PvP. So wondering if it's allowed on Blue server
