Default Classic 'feel'

The 'classic feel' was playing something new, that hadn't been done before. Taking away small convenience features doesn't make it feel more classic. just makes it feel older.

This is an argument you can't win, because they won't argue it. If they could force you to play in a 800x600 full screen UI with a single chat box, they would. And I'd still play it.

But that's not what the classic UI was. This was it if you pressed F10:

I'm not sure why everyone thinks you could only use this:

When you could also use the first one since launch.

The changes to LB con are pretty ridiculous. There are some very minor cosmetic things like this that make the game more enjoyable and were an oversight on the original dev team's part. It doesn't make sense to change it after so many years.

Speaking of so many years, is it classic to have Kunark for year after year? No. Okay, so not classic timeline, not classic. Obviously you make do with some things. How on earth is it more enjoyable to have less information about what you're fighting?

Anyway, sorry for bitching. I just get annoyed at these little "nerfs" that don't improve anything. Thanks for the badass server nonetheless.

You realize this is basically a beta server? The devs are making changes as they get to them to make an eventual final product.

Thank you very much for all your hard work in this patch. The server staff rains down blessings on the unworthy.

Downloaded the RAR file, unpacked, and carefully replaced the files in my game install folder each in turn. If I had done a straight replace of the UI folder, I would have lost my Velious UI so I was glad I inspected the folder contents when deciding what to move over / replace.

In game now, stuff is working fine.

The only reason I can see that some people are having some issues is maybe once the files were put into place, they might be in a read only state. I was getting the spells error also. I went into the security of the folder of EQ and reinstated full control permissions on the entire folder and only then did it finally work.
