[GUIDE] Using Luclin character models in P99

[Galaa]

Using Luclin models also grants you access to high res armor. Here's a picture of my druid in Tattered leather (looks MUCH better in game. Saving it to jpeg reduces the quality alot). Im new to P99, untwinked and dont have any high level characters, those of you with high end gears will see significantly better armor graphics.

A combination of Luclin character models + high res Velious graphics mod will significantly improve the overall graphics of Everquest in P99.

And remember, you can change your character's face anytime by clicking the face icon in Inventory window.

i think it's fair to provide people with options, for those who use the argument "it's not classic" can take that argument.... yep [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Can vouch for this! Works great!!!! : )

I agree, I think people should be able to do this so long as we all agree to never use the Troll Luclin models.

The whole "they just pick and choose classic things so why not this" argument is really annoying. They literally can not change certain things because they simply don't have the means. It's not as if all of the code for the entire game is just in some EQCODE.TXT file and they can change literally anything they want. If that were the case, we would not have starry sky graphics and those weird gigantic boats. I also don't think they have the ability to make the client disallow custom UI's, so that's why they're "allowed". How would they ever detect them?

This whole thing is a ton of work for the devs, and they've provided *as close* to a classic experience as they have the means to. I personally don't like the idea of other people running around seeing luclin models for everything. Yes it's petty and selfish, but little things like that dilute the classic experience. In classic, I didn't have the concern that group member A and group member B are seeing completely different versions of my character.

honestly, you'll never know who's using it and who isn't, so it shouldn't bother you mr douglas [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] see you have a preference to see your characters in classic, others, well they may decide they want to see luclin models.

I didn't even know someone made a separate thread. Hah

Anyway let me start this by saying yes I take credit for discovering this. If you're going to display hate towards anyone for the discovery of Luclin models on P99 direct it towards me not Galaa. To make it easier for you to hate me i use a pony avatar (my name in game is Rainbowdash. have fun with it. I usually go by Miku but it was apparently taken) and i'm going on record as stating I actually liked Space Cats: The Expansion (aka Luclin) and don't feel EQ Live died until GoD although PoK ports were a large step in the wrong direction.

Now that I've branded myself a heretic fit only to be burned on the cross by this community for sharing a differing opinion I'll continue. While the argument of "They haven't turned it off because they haven't figured out how yet" is very much valid and I recognize it, i provide a counter-argument. The UI. Yes there is a Velious UI but is it required? Nope. Optional. And from what I've seen most people don't use it. Secondly take a look around you at how many "non-classic things" the devs have, apparently judging by the stickies, supported. Graphical enhancements, Luclin/Modern spell gems etc etc. Is this any different than a spell gem? In addition only a fool would disable the ability to make a choice unless that choice infringed upon others by making it visible to all or gave that character an unfair advantage over others who choose different choices. Last I checked using Luclin models doesn't make you able to solo Trakanon nor does it allow you to glitch through walls or walk past KoS mobs. And if you are actually mentally harmed by another person making a decision or even the thought of it (But THEY will see me as Luclin even though I won't WAAAAA) you seriously need to take a step back and look at how seriously you're taking this game.

Now if the devs decide to make a patch that prevents connecting with this GlobalLoad so be it. (Although you wanna talk about wasting time that could be devoted to developing....) All i'm saying is until that time, should it arise, the only one making any decisions are the people choosing to use these models and, from your end, you will never know.

-Danyelle: the heretic for liking Space Cats: The Expansion.

Like the luclin models, but sadly it seems to cause issues for me with duxa's ui [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
