When will we have a new server? One with no boxing just the same as p99. Poll how many would pay to play?

EQ is srs buzness! I feel bad for Gyno and anyone else who took the time off for it but if it saves the server it's good to keep Daybreak on side [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Again mostly irrelevant. The .dll files required to play on this server will set off your antivirus program, so in that respect as you mentioned, you will never be able to play.

[Grimjaw]

simply exclude or flag dsetup.dll as a safe file (open your antivirus program and find the spot in there to do that)

Just to understand this more clearly, is it true that someone at SoE released a version of the server code to the creative commons sometime in or around 2009? Is this also the reason why we must use a specific version of the client (e.g. titanium)?

My understanding is that due to several "holes" in the server code that was released, developers have to use old log files, a lot of guesswork (not to mention time investment), to release new content and fix existing bugs, etc. That said, does this announcement mean there will be more cooperation in terms of providing missing data, and if so, specifically to P99, EQEMU, and/or the entire EMU community potentially? What does this mean for users and game clients?

In a nutshell, is Daybreak endorsing EQEMU, or P99 specifically as an orphan work from a copyright perspective, or is this something else?

Fascinating stuff!

I think titanium was the last set of game dics with the original client before eqlive changed over to all the revamped stuff.Thats why i think we can only use that client.
