New Server... - Page 4

What about the white colored servers on the EQemu list with 1 person playing? Something doesn't add up there... its gotta be possible, just have it live but keep it locked from anyone else joining.

like a trilogy server, pretty much they said that EQclassic.org has been trying for like 10 years with no results other than a promise that will never happen :P

P99 and most/all other servers on EQemu are PEQ clones right? Just heavily modified and with irrelevant mobs taken out, zones switched back etc.

Til then I guess you just have to work with the Titanium client and basically do what P99 has done [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] For the sake of whatever you want to do privately on what you make, would a stock PEQ download be so bad? If it's for roaming zones etc.

I mainly just want to dick around on the trilogy/classic client, with the old stone UI and the mirror when you open your inventory. I understand it would be super buggy and all sorts of fuggered up but yeah.

what we need is a way to make a server by just opening a program lol

I wish that DBG would just open a EQ classic server using the classic client :P
would play it.

There is - http://www.eqemulator.org/forums/showthread.php?t=38836

But the ProjectEQ database is aimed at replicating Live, not a Classic experience, so the code and database need to be redone to be Classic. P99 has done all the work but won't release the code and database to the public domain, understandably since then there'd be 20 Classic servers out there each with 10 people on them!

I have a hunch there's more going on than just that...

A true classic server would never work unless all players agree to not use web resources, although even on live beta testers had a jump on general population, after initial release.

How it happened on Mith Marr server.... we raided Vox/Nag/Fear/Hate with garbage gear (but good for that time) within the first 6 months post-release, it was a multi guild effort. Eventually some of those folks decided to create a guild with raiding as their focus (Afterlife). Im sure it worked the same way on other servers.

At least thats how I remember it!
