Question on Velious

[Sularus Oth Mithas]

Let's just assume for a minute that Velious is coming out and ignore those who swear it's never gonna happen! :p

My question is: Will we be able to still use old world character models for ourselves? I seem to remember it being an option when this first occurred back in the day but I believe that was due to some machines not being able to handle the upgrade in graphics. Obviously not an issue 14 years later. I really did not like the changes to the character models, I'm fine with other content such as terrain and buildings but I'd really like and hope that we can retain the classic look.

You are thinking Luclin models. Velious brought new armor models.

Although I haven’t tried it myself I believe you can turn them off/on right now.

I noticed that at the login screen (prior to putting in your login information) if you click ‘options’ you should be able to change all of the models if you want.

I know of friends who are running around telling me that my earth elemental has legs (Luclin model).

Otherwise you need to edit the .ini file i believe.

The models you can enable/disable with the options are the Luclin models. However, editing the options does not work for P99, they are hard-coded disabled*. To enable them, you'll need to follow this guide (http://www.project1999.org/forums/showpost.php?p=638600&postcount=2).

To enable the Velious armor skins, you'll need to replace some files per this guide (http://www.project1999.org/forums/showpost.php?p=645740&postcount=16). It will basically replace classic leather/chain/plate with Velious leather/chain plate, so you will not have ANY classic armors at all (except possibly helmets, I don't think this change affects helmets).


*This does not apply to elementals, they still need to be turned off via the Everquest options.

This "velious" thread is innocuous enough that it doesn't warrant the "OMFGBBQKTHXBAI WHY TALK VELIOUS AGAIN" crap. Dude's just reaching out with a content question.

Save that for the whining "WHAR VELIOUS WHAR" threads... which this could certainly turn into. But shit... save those bullets till you see the whites of their eyes!

I don't care what a little, sawed off Paladin says. I still liked it. Chill out. Go have some sex or something.

Hehe. Oh I liked it- thought it was the beginning of the typical flood is all.

Hmm. You a cleric? Because if you are, I can tell the missus I have a prescription for sawed-off dwarf nookie.

Could be worse I guess. Gnome Gnookie. :eek:

Thanks for the info - I was having the new pet models show up as well. I can't stand them so now I turned them off!
