In a year, P99 will die, Quarm will take over.

Cyas in a year then?

Go to eqemulator and check forum (and discord) and search for "making my own server", refine search terms to "I wanna make it stop at <insert expansion>" do I just enable expansion number in server_rules?
Short answer: Yes! But it will use all current server code. Combat, saves, pet power etc. Enjoy.

Long answer: Nope! followed by 50,000 extra steps requiring c++, mysql and perl/lua coding skillz.

<highschool_coder> pipes in with takp has released the DB! Should be easy blah blah. They will be shot down by the 3 or 4 actual coders that frequent the forums pointing out there are thousands of changes needed to bring a server up to era correctness.

So, go do it and see ya never.

Truth. I toyed with the idea of making a classic server ... yeah it's literaly years of dev time to pull it off. Even with the latest EQEmu era stuff they've put in and TAKP db. If you want it correct to the level P99 staff have gotten it, it might be ready in time for us to play it at the nursing home.

I think the time is NOW. I know years back p99 made an agreement with the owners of eq. But given the change of hands over the years, the current devs working on other projects. Other private servers making content beyond Velious, i think for the future of p99 they need to expand the content. The time is now.

You think you want it, but you dont.

Even the people who have the sweatiest most exclusive pixels here aren't calling for luclin. Most of us play here specifically because luclin was dogshit.

Luclin was a fantastic expansion with an unfortunately boring final raid zone but everything else about it was great. PoP was even better.

Only the extremely vocal minority feel differently.

the minority being the creators. i'ii give you 0% chance for luclin and 90% coming across as entitled man-baby.

Woahhh look at this new game mechanic, you're outside but it's still treated as underwater! We changed literally one flag! This is game development and progression.
