My Very Own Server?
 
I was browsing the list of other servers, and I noticed some that had custom zones and even one that allowed GM commands. If I made my own server could I...
  • Move the wizard portal in West Karana closer to Qeynos Hills?
  • Make Brownie, Faerie, and Pixie playable races?
  • Add lower level versions of harvest for wizards?
  • Quests that allow fire pot travel?
  • Wizard group gates to Firepots?
  • Player Werewolfs and Vampires?
  • Player controlled boats in the ocean zones?
  • Meteors that drop out of the sky and blow up entire zones?

You know wizards can port to WK then evac and they get dropped off right at the qeynos hills zoneline, don't you?

Try asking question directly on eqemulator.com forum

provided you can figure out the coding / scripting, the answer to all of those is "yes"

Trivial to add/change spells.

Changing the loc a port spells send people would be trivial, changing where the wizard spires themselves are would be a little more work but not too bad with the right tools. Would need to change clientside files for that though, and then you get to the questionable part -- distributing client files is technically a no-no but you could get away with it if you're a low-visibility (non-p99) server. Alternatively, you could pack your changes into some kind of patch that only modifies the files the player already has, but that's more work.

Sure why not.

Tougher ones. I think Secrets might know something about getting more things to show up on the char creation screen somehow or another. Getting stuff like equipment to play along might take more work (Race: ALL is not as ALL as it might sound, from what I remember). If you're willing to put up with hacks (shows up visibily as a brownie or whatever in game and on char select, but is technically counted as some other race under the hood and at char creation) it might be easier to pull off.

Maybe. Boats are Mobs and can be moved around the same ways as NPCs and such, although the "moves players along with it" part can lead to some pretty glitchy movement. Finding an intuitive and workable way for players to control them might be more challenging.

If by "meteors" you mean "zonewide flavor text followed by instant death"...

My custom server would have an Orc City dungion.. off of Oasis of Mar.. level 45+ accessable via the GIANT opening in that zone known as the Orc Highway.

*edit* wait under the orc city would be a crazy orc dungion with a layout like guk, but full of merbs that were 65+

It would have a 45+ Outdoor zone off of Jagged Pine Forest.. full of elusive forest elves.

hmm idk what else.. runny eye would get an item loot revamp.

I'd throw in zones that were left off from the original Antonica map, like Unkempt Woods, The Dead Hills and The Deep. Just to name a few.

MeatQuest server

PvP Teams server, teams based on race

Racial meat drops from players killed in PvP death only (taken off loot tables of regular mobs)

Meats can be used to cook or taunt the other teams, as well as fulfill bounties or team/guild quotas

PROS
Potential for Black Market of racial meats
Meat jokes
Clever meat related guild names
Endless fun!
CONS
?
In conclusion,
