I'm a Shaman, apologies for the afk, trying to finish an extension at home & mitigate wife aggro.


Swish - That cracked me up. I used to love that program (& yeah, that's where the name came from).

I'll be on next week as & when. Currently in & around EC still.

Hows it going Grotbags?

I'm a Brit too (but not currently living there!).

What level are you up to now? Where are you levelling?

That sounds bad. Are you in Jail?? Maybe we can set up a Bond drive for you on the Forums. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Shit's classic...

Imagine only putting mainly white kids in a TV program these days? Shit would kick off.

Nearly 13 years after I last /camped for the final time, I find myself fanning the flames for a light that has never gone out. Of all the MMOs I played in the intervening years, none matched what I experienced during my EverQuest years.

After another project failed to materialise, I stumbled upon Project 1999 from a chance YouTube video - a clarion call of nostalgia, and the need for a new laptop after my MacBook died. New Windows laptop duly ordered (last in stock), I have the opportunity to achieve what I failed to achieve when I originally played all those many years ago.

I only achieved 24th level on my Chanter because an alt Druid, then an alt Warrior interfered with my playing time; as well as spending an inordinate amount of time on the server board.

This time round I can be more achievement orientated, whilst still pausing to take in the beauty of the Karanas during the rain, and play on a somewhat casual basis over a long period of time. This time round, I'll roll a DE Chanter (as opposed to HE Chanter - whoop big difference [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]) worshipping Innoruok. Once a Chanter, always a Chanter.

Short-Term Goals:
- Cracked Staff
- Patchwork Leather
- Stein of Moggok (level 8)
- Bind in pot room

Medium-Term Goals:
- Unrest
- Najena
- Mistmoore
- Lower / Upper Guk

Long-Term Goals:
- Nagafen raid
- Vox raid
- Planar raids inc. Sky
- Chanter epic

Overriding Goal:
To have fun playing a loved game with people who feel the same way.

Hopefully see you all in-game from Friday (pending laptop delivery, config, and a Titanium config), Neriak Commons log, or EC Tunnel. Seriously, my heart did a flip when I read that there were nearly 200 players in EC Tunnel.

Play-time will be weekend mornings, and maybe Sat evenings (BST) if nothing else planned. All-nighters reserved for special occasions well in advance - to pacify my fiancée. The trials and tribulations of EQ in one's early 40s.

Cheers!

Corrections to above: Innoruuk and Raw Silk Armour.

Hmm .. may decide to go ERU as my race and start in Paineel. Decisions .. decisions.

Good lord! That was a kerfuffle and a half to obtain EverQuest Titanium. All done and Riotgirl the DE Enchanter is (re) created - albeit, the original creation all those years ago was a HE Enchanter.

Need to fiddle with the EQClient.ini file because I am experiencing the windowed issue i.e. mouse clicking edges of the screen in full-screen mode dumps me into windowed mode - and I am unable to re-size the window.

Set the game to windowed mode but adjust the resolution to be your screen resolution in the eqclient.ini file - that's how I've always played at least. Full screen can be annoying for a lot of reasons [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Dark elf enchanter = best enchanter!

Thanks Swish. That seems to have worked.

Loaded Velious UI - just need to work out how to make the background of the UI windows translucent so that the windows are as intrusive as possible.

Re-read all of the commands again after Mr Alzheimer is rushing towards me with open arms, and then I will be set to customise the UI some more to my liking, set-up my hot-key and macro configuration, scribe spells into my spell-book, and start my nascent steps back into EQ in the best manner possible: killing lowbie mobs in Nektulos Forest, with a /Who list in double figures.

It is good to be back ...
