I usually pick landmarks and remember their visual locations relative to each other.

Yes, there's a third-party map program: .

Just FYI to those considering downloading/using this, Sirken said on the stream last night that they do not approve use of this 3rd party program and if they have a way to detect its use, "you will have a bad time here."

Pretty sure the maps that just check your log.txt file are fine.

Unless things have changed recently.

The devs went to a lot of effort to remove maps from the game to create a classic experience. They do not appreciate you circumventing what they did. We currently don't have a way to detect the use of this program. If they do create a way...

Thats a funny comment, considering the creator of a program SPECIFICALLY asked Rogean IF creating this program was within allowed 3rd party programs scope, willing to abort if Rogean would disprove. And Rogean said - you fine. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

It might be a good idea to assume the position has changed.

You can continue rolling the dice along with your eyeballs.

Perhaps that was said. So?

Perhaps that decision should be revisited. Rogean is not Moses, and he and the other devs can change their mind about a third party program.

My vote of exactly 1 goes to: they should reconsider approving that program. It functions as an overlay that adds a whole level of functionality that is specifically not meant to be on their version of "classic." I say, nix it.

What I do for some harder to find areas, such as the tunnels that go from Warsliks to Loio or the tunnel in FM that goes to DL (I always have trouble finding these damn spots). I make a macro of the loc of those locations. So if I am trying to find them again I just click the macro and my character will /say the location and then I can just run to that loc.

can't seem to find link, but it would be a great aid for someone truly new to the game.

From a classic standpoint, also legitimate. The technology to do this was clearly present at the time of Everquest's release.

Investigations GM gives it the thumbs up. Unless management chimes in and says otherwise, this is fine.*
