Will p2002's DB and server code be open source, or at least pushed back to cavedude? Would be a shame if cavedude has to spend his time fixing shit that p2002 has already done. Is there even a p2002 server dev, or you guys just doing DB work and lua conversions? | |||

I don't think many people realize what a massive undertaking it is to develop code and a database that even remotely resembles classic EQ. Look how long P1999 has been around just to get to this point in the timeline. The server/database needs a lot of time in development for a somewhat classic server -- Anything else has massive faults in the code/database discrepancies that goes in the trash when the players figure out it's garbage and stop logging into the server. Just look at EpicEmu | |||

Exactly, content takes a long time to release and yet TAKP devs have already decided to force guilds into a rotation. Aren't on the rotation? You get one spawn cycle a month to get on it. (This goes for every guild trying to get on) If you can't get on the rotation you can't raid. Period. Jump a guilds mob and you get banned.
Seriously. This has nothing to do with the fact the the GM's are active players in the wanna be raiding guild. I wasn't banned there, but how can I justify putting time into an EQ character when bans are handed down so easily and without justification or proof. The GMs say you threatened them in a PM, it's bannable to record conversations with a GM anywhere, and the GM refuses to post proof he was threatened. Boom, you're done. Secondly, say what you will about boxing. Most players on TAKP didn't box. The ones that did only used their boxes to supplement their groups weaknesses. I boxed an Enchanter but ALWAYS invited an LFG Enchanter if there was one. This is by and large the majority of the situations. If it were up to me there would be a 2 box limit but boxing will die out if a population is stable. I honestly hate running my second character but it is a great benefit to the gameplay experience... And I made her a chick and can cyber myself. (P.S. TAKP devs have also banned players for talking negatively about the server and GMs on forums not related to TAKP. (Rerolled) So if posting this results in a ban there note that I was not banned at the time of writing this.)

Once you have a working codebase.....lua is the only code that has to be updated to release expansions(the quest code) Xpac's are just a pile of pathing/roaming/database work.......but if you have a few people working on it diligently....6 months is all it should take to put out xpacs. Luclin/PoP will take the longest for sure.....but I still think with the codebase 6months is a very real expectation. | |||
