Now before you get up and arms about luclin models I would like to provide some backstory for myself.

My childhood was filled with amazing memories of a game called EQOA, it was very similar to this game. That game is long gone and the effort to emulate it is not going anywhere. P99 bec ame my new home. I considered myself an EQOA refugee.

You all made me feel like I was at home, the classes and spells and zones all brought me to my forgotten home that I miss dearly. I am sure this is how you all feel about the clasisc errra of EQ. You hold it dearly.

But I just do not understand how me using newer models to make me feel more like I am back playing EQOA can be negative for other people.

I am quitting p1999 today after more than a year of playing and bringing multiple friends/family to the server. You were all amazing and thank you for the community. But if I have to look at the terrible classic eq pixels after playing with luclin models for over a year I will puke. (NO offense just opinion). I have no nostalgia from Classic EQ, because I never played.

Feel free to scream and rabble about "not classic" now.

Play the ak'anon project. There is sufficient population and you get the updated models. Problem solved.

I play on p99 exclusively because of outs mission statement of classic look and feel as close as possible. When I'm done with that I'll move to another EQ emulator south a different mission.

I will check it out, thanks for the suggestion.

Mad and or bad

Guys the goal of this project is to emulate the 1999 game experience.

Literally anything staff can do to force all players into OG mode will be done as soon as they can figure out how to do it. If they could limit your bandwidth to 56k and then bring it to DSL in 2001 era to roughly emulate actual connection limitations of the time, they absolutely would.

If they could make the game run perfectly and then ALWAYS CRASH when you alt + tab they absolutely would.

I bet my life on it 1000%

Don't be surprised if stuff gets more classic.

Hes mad that the free server doesn’t cater to exactly what he desires so he needs to let you know he’s leaving in a huff!

Surprised you lasted this long on the server with the way you act. Mmmmm buh-bye.
