Is it allowable to run two separate applications, one on p99 blue, one on p99 red? you know, for those times when playing on one server boils to sitting around in ec tunnel for hours on end?

Yes have done it a bunch of times. Was running the bard diet (http://wiki.project1999.com/6-Minute_Bard_Diet) on both servers :D

lol nice :D will check out the bard diet :P

However I'm having trouble, simply redirecting eqemu to the new p99 red directory, and then choosing the server from the list doesn't properly set me up to play, I get the outdated spells error. I've read over the setup guide at least 5 times in the last hour, thinking I have to be missing something, but I cant find anything about any required files or anything... can someone clue me in as to what I'm missing?

edit: scratch that, im an idiot. works fine after redirectiong eqemu to new filepath. I distinctly recall it not working in the past, but thinking back I believe I was having connection errors in general.

I know this is a silly question, but im debating trying that 6 minute bard diet as you mentioned, however, on my lv40 sk I actually have a great reputation with the league of bards, should I be at all concerned about killing this faction? I never do their quests and as far as I can tell that's all Ill be missing out on.. aside from making it only very slightly more difficult to travel as a DE sk.

theres like 0-1 bard per zone you might travel through, and at 40 you can invis
plus the bards cant kill you unless you afk for half an hour getting hit
you'll be fine


All excellent points, thanks. im hiking through highpass as we keep to kill that one in the hhk courtyard; meanwhile my red druid is regening mana in rivervale ;)

I think it's kind of mean to kill bards when newbies may need them for mail quest.

Aside from Tacar Tissleplay in Felwithe (and maybe Travis Two Tone in Nektulos), I don't think many bards get used too often.

Even if you do find the bard dead and someone sat there, they're only on a 6 minute timer - most people will let you do your business before killing them again.

Are you allowed to have a second account for a mule in EC?

You can have 50 accounts with 8 characters on all of them if you can think of that many names. :eek:

Can anyone confirm the post above? I don't want to get banned. ;(

I would like to be able to move my wares while leveling or doing other things!

You can't be on 2 of them at the same time if that is what you mean?? That IS boxing. Even using one to sell with in a different zone.

I know someone who's abused an IP exemption by being in EC on their at the same time as XP'ing.

Don't do it :(

If you want to have 1 logged in for EC on blue, and 1 logged in for XP on red... that's fine. One active account per server isn't a problem, Two active accounts on 1 P99 server is bannable, and you'll only be able to do it if you get an IP exemption and get caught.
