Patch Notes: December 3rd, 2014

[letsjoe]

update: gamma fixed. Now hitting control + X, or typing /camp auto client crashes.

Thank you, always, Rogean and Team.

Confirmed: Camping while Standing crashes the client, where as of v35, it was requiring you to sit.

Also, spell textures have changed. I recall there was an effort to make the spell graphics look more Classic? I believe that change was undone by the recent patch.

Spell graphics were changed to be even closer to classic. The thread in the server chat has a long list of changes made over the past several months. It's still not 100% because the client still prevents some advancements.

Thank you for your reply, Telin.

I re-patched the zip I have, which is called "ClassicSpells v.0.85", that I found on this site. And it did restore the appearance of spells to as they were being patched via v33, I believe.

I believe I read here that it was so popular, that it was made a part of the standard update patch. Anyways, just noting the difference. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

On red the NPCs in cities are in wrong locations and can't be interacted with (like the bankers and merchants in Felwithe). In Unrest, high level mobs stand in the zoneline, the maze and in MR sometimes but can't be attacked or attack.

ROFL the gamma fix was a complete failure. Anyone who ever played on EQMac knows how its supposed to be. It was a lighting feature, and not the actual turning down of the gamma. If you don't realize that, you don't remember classic EQ.

This is just a terrible workaround, that doesn't really come close to emulating classic EQ. It should never turn down the luminosity of your UI, also Infravision and Ultravision both are broken, so theres that.

Like I said, terrible workaround, not classic, needs to be reverted

PS: If you wanna see how the real game looks like, come on over to TAK (the Eq mac emu server) they use a version of the client that actually has the correct darkness settings.

Until secrets makes it so you can play this game with the trilogy client, classic lightning aficionados are gonna have to be patient

edit> what I find worse than the staffs inability to test this before implementing it on the live server, is the way some people can come into the thread and troll the people who have valid concerns and reports, for pages and pages, without staff giving them a time out.
