its not about the costs, its about beeing "associated" with P99 and beeing DDoSed on a weekly basis, its plain annoying

What do you mean being "associated" with P99? I saw that mentioned in another thread, but not quite sure what people are referring to.

And I can take steps to handle the DDoSing, there are ways to fix such things.

@Rumzuck: If anyone other than myself wants to use it, that's reason enough for me to want to host it. I'm happy to do so, it will cost me nothing, and I have the time and resources to do it. I would just need your cooperation in moving things around and getting it set up elsewhere.


@Danyelle: That problem happens when your DPI scaling in Windows 7 is turned up higher than 100%. At some resolutions and monitor sizes, Win7 will automatically crank that up for you. You can turn it down by going to the Screen Resolution adjustment window and clicking "Make text and other items larger or smaller," then set it to 100%.

I also use this and would be sad if it was to go away. Norova I can help with supporting this if that time ever comes.

dont use it cause when following the p99 instructions that didnt come into play i guess. just did the installs/files and started up from the .exe
also like messing with files by hand easier i guess

it means that whatever retard is DDoSing P99 is lashing out on the launcher also ... since it always happens simultanously ...

if you enjoy having a million connections per second on your infrastructure ... then have fun handling it lol ... i sure as hell wont spent hundrets of euros or dollars or anything to get the necessary equipment to handle attacks like that for something we offer for free ...

i mean you can see how well rogeans $500 a month anti DDoS solution works out ...

Ah, I see.

Well, like I said, there are ways around it and tools that can be used to handle such things, and I'm happy to take it on. It doesn't cost hundreds of dollars/euros to fix. I enjoy the service and I know I'm not the only one, so to me there is value in maintaining it.

It may not be "worth" it for some, but dealing with netsec is my job. I have no problem taking on the responsibility.

I use it on patch days to update, but most days I just use the eqgame.exe shortcut.

there is not much i can do besides banning.. so a ddos attack is always successfully within the first minutes, until all the zombies are banned [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

What he said.

You just download the files, unzip them, and replace them in your folder. We all did that for years and months ago before the EQEmuLauncher.

But I used to save my old files just in case.
