Dude I dono, but last night was such a busy night for p99 I couldn't find a camp in like 3 level appropriate zones for the 40-50's and every twitch had like +20 users than normal... Which happened to consist of videos of people trying to find something to camp in HS or Seb..

Doesn't "classic" pertain to gameplay and ruleset? Who cares what the client is doing?

If I could I'd run a completely updated client with a modern 3D engine, new models, and new artwork all using the exact same server data. In fact I'd *pay* to play that game.

Damn you Sony and your cheesy Minecraft meets Disney world-building excuse for an EQ re-invention.

Just recreate classic EQ in Landmark.

After several payments of 19.99 for land, of course

Target rings, target box con color, compass, maps, luclin models, all removed for "classic", and people claiming to want a pure eq experience. Doesnt change gameplay at all, but its done - and yet these same people wanting a pure eq experience play with the shadows on. I just find it ironic / funny is all :)

I agree with you on an updated engine. Keep EQ *exactly* like we have here, update the graphics to a modern engine, and I think you would have hundreds of thousands of subscribers.....

There is only one man that is capable of updating the graphics for EQ and not making it suck, he is toddfx

I was browsing toddfx's thread last night and wow those screenshots really pop!

For anybody who missed it the first time around, toddfx guy also made a really kickass video of EQ models playing musical instruments.

Check it out! http://www.project1999.com/forums/showthread.php?t=47834&highlight=toddfx+battle+bands

Does toddfx come around these parts anymore?

[t0lkien]

I agree with everything said here (I have all the toddfx screenshots saved to my HDD), and weep quietly into my keyboard because I know it will never happen. I have friends and colleagues who could possibly make it happen though...

In fact, that's a project I'd love to take on. All we need is an EQ obsessed millionaire patron to fund it.

I was building Neriak in Landmark (http://threethirteen.net/EQLandmark/) very early on till they took the EQ off the branding & there was the Gategate thing & I just got annoyed with the whole thing.

haha dang that looked so cool!

The titanium (and later) client's renderer is indeed not very good... but classic zones aren't representative of what it can do, either. Nicer textures, normal (bump) mapping, and maybe some improvements to texture coordinates could go a long way.

I have a tool that can convert old S3D zone geometry to the nicer EQG format and export and import it from a modelling tool, which would open up some of the slightly more modern features of the engine without fundamentally changing the shape of the zone. (The S3D -> EQG conversion part of the tool could use more work, but there's no serious use for it as yet...)

The hard part is finding people like that guy who can do the real graphics work ;p And work within the still pretty limited confines of the client's engine.

Anyone Struggaling to stream with xsplit? Wont upload to twitch or justin tv just keeps saying loading video.
