Shewolf, on the first page of this post there is a link that is called Project 1999 files (v43). Click that and unzip them in your P99 folder overwriting any existing files then try opening the game again [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I don't mind if they made it completely impossible for bards to solo. I like grouping 100x more and rarely swarm kite. With that said, I still don't get why people think this is a good fix. Its definitely a step in the right direction, but imo doesn't fix the root problem. It breaks other parts of the game in an attempt to fix another thing and that is never good. You can even argue it makes the swarming problem worse, in that its taking mobs away from other players for a longer duration. The pulling bard can still pull 100 mobs, it just takes longer to kill, which in turn leaves more mobs in their swarm, which means less mobs for others for a longer time period. /* edit Theres also only about two zones where this is a problem. DL and OT. Well, Oasis too. The oasis should be a concern as its a lowbie zone and that actually does suck when a bard goes and sweeps the entire zone. Make swarming in Oasis suspendable. I've personally never swarmed here and never would, but have xp'd here while a bard was doing it and sucked. As for DL/OT - Can't bards get one zone to do their thing in? edit */ All i'm trying to do is give constructive criticism which I think the owners of this server appreciate? hopefully? If they dont want bards soloing that badly, just make it punishable or something. Don't take away from other classes in the process. | |||

Level 56 bard main here, have been playing for about 18 months and still have no max toons. I have no problems with the concept of limiting bard swarms on the server.
The rules have always been clear... "Zone/Area Disruption is defined as any activity designed to harm or inconvenience a number of groups rather than a specific player or group of players. This includes, but is not limited to:: -Monopolizing most or all of the kills in an area." Whether you are a nice bard or an ass hat, i've been both, your swarm kiting is affecting others and was always intended by the devs on the server to be against the rules, "not classic" arguments are moronic. The problem is they have never been able to effectively enforce the rule. I say to the devs: keep at it, keep trying new things to fix the problem if this fix doesn't do it right. Don't ever apologize, just keep at it and thanks for the hard, unforgiving work. I do appreciate it /rant NO ONE BENEFITS when getting your bard or your PL pal to the end game as fast as possible is the only goal: -There are enough shitty bards out there that we bards who wish to group and practice our art cannot get one over another class because we all have a bad name. -This game is different from WoW for a reason that I believe the Devs understand. Its not about consuming content, its about human relationships within a framework where people have a common ground and a common enemy, and swords. Where people can have some measure of success and fun inside another world when their RL world may be a pile of shit that they daily have to wade through in order to get by. -No one benefits when shortcuts circumvent the purpose of the game. Being a higher level has never been necessarily more fun IMO, though there may be more people to play with and I suppose more to do? Who remembers their last ToV clear as being more enjoyable than that time when you helped out a lowbie with 300plat who then paid it forward to another lowbie when it was nothing to him, or that time you challenged the leader of the biggest guild on the server to a duel when you were a lvl 30 decently self-geared paladin and he was a lvl 60 warrior but naked and you nearly won? Levels aren't everything folks, and the Devs understood that going into this thing, this "classic EQ" server they have fashioned from the ground up. It's their server, they get it and you don't so stfu and thank them for their attempts to recreate some magic that is damn ellusive and basically unknown in the game world today. The magic that it was then spawned an entire generation of games that all lost sight in one way or another of the reason why the memories stuck, its about other people and swarm kiting is a threat to that. Is it the best fix? obviously not. Is it way to damn late? The devs are not working on the now, they are working on the next. So be constructive like some of the better comments to this thread have been and talk about how it can be fixed and suggest real solutions that lead people together, even if they choose to solo play in EQ. /rant | ||

I'm just glad i can still play old skool eq. Have any of you logged on to live lately? /shiver
I am forever grateful for the opportunity to relive my noob feeling days and get that awesome nostalgia going. I don't take it as seriously as I did on live. It's like getting to be a kid again. Priceless. I'm taking it slow and taking it all in. Let us remember, we are fortunate to have p99 at all! | ||

Hi, I'm a pretty casual player here, but I haven't been able to log in since this patch. I've attempted updating my files many times, but I continue to get the error message upon logging in.
Any suggestions? The files in my directory are seemingly up to date. Never had a problem before this patch. | ||
