That's why EqEmu is open source - it's not just out of the goodness of their hearts. They are GPL3'd, too. | |||

The server end stuff isn’t distributed though?

Trust me when I say, even with P99 open source, you won’t even be able to run the game without an exact copy of the database.
Before the server can even start, you will need every column in the DB to match, on its hundreds of tables. The only thing it would be good for is to reverse engineer some features for your own version of the server, which would probably start at EQ Emu and be so drastically different you’d be better off to start from scratch. Im not saying P99 shouldn’t go open source, but, just letting you know I highly doubt it would help your project. | ||

I came up with a little toon to assist: ♫ If you bend the knee to GPL3, distribution or open source tree, you must share the code to prevent legal load. ♫ Quote:
