The client is fine and i prefer it to the p99 client. You get used to not mouse-wheeling quickly. If you are continually playing P99 while playing this client of course you are going to keep getting frustrated.

It's not even just the mouse wheel. It's the zone textures. I can't stand them. They drive me nuts.

They're classic, after a few weeks playing you'll get used to them plus you'll grow a few extra chest hairs in the process

You should be able to replace the zone textures with these

Those textures aren't classic.

Classic are the textures on p99. The square pixeled stuff.

The ones on p2002 are NOT classic textures. Classic to that era? Probably. But not classic to the original game.

The ultimate server:

p99 client
Through PoP

Would be awesome.

I'm debating getting into p2002... But it's so tough to make the move given how much I absolutely despise the F9 camera switch and not being able to pan around with the right mouse. It seems like such a small deal but it's crushing...

I use w for forward, a and d strafe and use the right click of the mouse to turn.

Are you saying I would have to key turn?

No, you can move with those keys. You can't adjust the camera with the right mouse or the mouse wheel. Well, you can move it a bit, but no where near as efficiently.

Haynar, do you favor or oppose strong GM intervention in the raid scene?

I favor strong GM intervention when those that are raiding cannot get along. Translation, when it creates more work for the GMs from all the drama, and the raid scene is nothing but a cesspool of scum and villany, and GM intervention actually makes it less work then, yes to GM intervention.

If you can have raiding guilds work it out and get along? Then let them manage it.

I have never seen it work out on its own, for competetive raiding on eqemu.

Example: p99.

Takp: the users voted to manage themselves, but then they did nothing to actually manage it. Lots of drama. GMs intervened.

P2002: no competetive raid scene. Basically one guild raiding last I heard.

EQEmu raiders don't get along, in a real competitive environment.

I would totally have played Project 2002, but it's the boxing and low population I cannot get over.

Any recollection of AK live?

Non-GM intervention, 2 or 3 guilds at the top of progression, respectfully rotated raid mobs.

...

takp = GM intervention raid scene

p2002 = Non-GM intervention raid scene

pick your posion

[Haynar]

Didnt play on AK raiding.

EMU servers have way more asshats.

I like to box. I cant stand not to box. Takp has enough ppl that a non boxer can find groups. As long as u dont hate grouping with boxers. There are plenty of ppl on p2002 that will let non-boxers join them. I know some of ppl who went from takp to p2002, helped out new ppl, giving away gear, etc. apio was really good at helping new ppl out.

I also like tradeskilling. Boxing helps farm stuff imho.
