This is completely legit. It just reads your log file and puts your /loc on a map. No different then using a log parser to figure out your DPS. p1999 staff has stated in the past that as long as the program doesn't inject anything into the EQ client then it is legal.

awesome. Makes me wonder what other little things like this I don't know about.

I think people would prefer it if the OP used his original P99 forum name rather than registering a new one. That's where some of the doubt, suspicion and paranoia comes from.

I play Tibby on Red 1999. I don't have an active forum account. I never got into the forum wars.

I like the app and it works ok, but having to login EVERY TIME YOU USE IT (with no facility to "remember me" or anything) is a bit of a pain.

Why do you need to login to use it?
I could see maybe if it were being used as a program that ran a server and your guild and friends could connect then you could see them in the map program but something like this would take a hour or so to make and login doesn't make sense...
Really seems NOT legit tbh.

Why are you requiring people to register and log in?

Neat utility so far, thanks for sharing.

Just a few points. I don't see any licensing information being distributed with the app.
  • You need to include the MIT License for using Newtonsoft.Json.
  • Require end users to agree to terms that protect them at least as much as the standard Microsoft Software License Terms. There are myriad boilerplate EULAs and such out there, Google will lead you to them.
  • Display your valid copyright notice on your programs.

Thumbs up

First feedback after 1st long session try.

Config :
  • My computer
  • My tabs (ASUS TF101G with KB) as 2nd dispay (idisplay)

[You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] Great accuracy, usefull no lags (/ and /loc do nothing because apps on 2nd display)
[You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] not burn tabs battery

And for your information under W7 : mlink working, then to danger for SSDs [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Now I'm waiting for zoom and lvl managment [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Thanks for trying it out!

When you say "level management" I think you're talking about zones that are multi-level. Those are challenging to map, but there is some support for those. Some multi-level zones work better than others. A fun one to see it working in is Blackburrow.

The zoom and pan is on the to-do list. Some zones really suffer from this missing feature like Skyshrine. A workaround is to enlarge the map window completely which should help.

Please let me know if you run into any issues. I hope to get back to making updates in some weeks. I've been super busy with other side projects at the moment unfortunately (all not related to EQ). I definitely want to get back to NorrathMap soon. Though if any major issues come up, I'll definitely get them fixed ASAP.
