When eqemu Mac is finished, would we move over to that client? That actually has the more classic feel with the old UI and everything.

Just curious as I would hesitate to move over to any eqemu mac servers if they didn't have the support and community this server has.

I would guess Abacab's recreated AlKabor server emu he is working on.

Wow, interesting. I liked EQmac. Best compromise between here and Live.

I'd spend some time on it, but i wouldn't give up anything here. It would just be a balance of which experience is more entertaining. If it remains a ghost town, then I wouldn't play much. PoP was EQ's heyday IMO. I enjoyed EQMac immensely.

Short answer: Maybe.

I've been thinking of a way to handle the network portion of the client and handle opcode translation between Titanium <-> EQMac's old protocol. This time, on the client instead of the server. This would allow for p99 to someday natively support the EQMac client without any changes on the Titanium server, beyond the p99 dsetup dll.

Essentially what this project I am thinking of doing will do is translate the received opcodes from a titanium server to the EQMac windows client in the proper location, and align the structure properly. Basically, replacing the network code on the EQMac client.

As soon as I get something workable, I will let you guys know.

Is Sundawg helping Abacab? Sure to be a great server if so.

Thank you! This is exactly why I messaged you in the first place. I know that a lot of the network code was re-worked so that the windows client would work with eqmac's server, so to make the client compatible with p1999 wouldn't be impossible.

will do degrading things for a more classic client
