They are run different ways. One will end up doing better than the other. One server will end up the Fippy and the other Vulak.

So I considered project 2002 and I read that there was ~70 people on usually including the 3 boxing. Yeah...

The population is definitely low, but growing. If you enjoy pop-era EQ, I'd say check it out and help the numbers grow. If you are too turned off by the low pop., just keep an eye on this thread and we'll certainly be posting new population milestones. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

DB work is different than code in that it's more subjective. Both teams fundamentally disagree on very basic things such as drop rates. P2002's drop rates are way higher than I would deem acceptable. Not to mention the many lootdrop errors like incorrect hate mini drops.

If anyone sees a wrong value for our drop rates (they are all available on our AllaClone), they are encouraged to report them on our bug forums.

I think you are missing the point.

They wanted to have a master db and code. And the p2002 intentionally diverged so stuff could not be patched backwards to takp. Basically a huge slap in the face to the takp team on what they were trying to achieve, when p2002 is constantly doing a comparison to takp.

There is no longer a valid comparison between the two anymore. P2002 is a fork from takp. They are now being developed independently basically.

I somewhat disagree with you and Secrets. I'd rather their project remain closed. If people are going to set up their own servers, I'd rather they clone ours. P2002 closing their project removes the decision.

I mean they probably have not changed much of their source code. I use a mix of the EqEmu source code and even have used a few blocks from your source code. Some of it I have written myself. I will let someone have my source if they wanted it, but it is just bits and pieces from everywhere, nothing at all special.

I never said they should release their db. At this point it would be used to refute claims of whose db is more accurate, who has done more work. Who has the better db.

In summary... It would lead to slinging more monkey poop.

No thanks.

Why are we back to squabbling? You do whatever you want with your database, we'll do ours. We contribute back what is comparable....ie .path files and lua's.


Torven you are an excellent troll, your trolling skills have been proven. Why don't you spend your energy telling the world how great your server is rather than attempting to shit on ours?

Thanks
