Sorry, but Toxxulia Forrest was not this foggy in 1999

[Ghost_of_Fippy]

Just as the Title says. I started in March 1999 as a Eurdite. Leveled there for weeks. There was not this much fog back then. When you approached the bridge, you could see the whole thing and across it to the other side. The setting for Green and Teal is ridiculous. Is there a way to scale it back?

Rungupp use to also charge the bridge and send out a zone wide message to the city of Erudin he was coming, sort of like Fippy Darkpaw, but on a longer timer. Now he just wonders up and down the edge of the water on the SW edge, silent.

I’ve wondered this too. Feerott and Nektoulis (sp?) both seem to have their clip plane set at the lowest possible level, despite my own being set at max. When it rains I can see maybe an arms length in front of me. I’ll say this is definitely one of those quality of life upgrades I miss from playing on the EQ live servers.

It's "bad classic implementation because we couldn't do anything better" to the point of absurdity.

As far as I know, the clip planes are not classic due to how they implemented the vision restrictions.

While vision might not be perfect, can we say it's moved towards what classic was rather than pitching blue server vision as the closer marker?

This site has a lot of classic shots of Nek Forest. I don't think it's too far off on Green presently?

Also not a bad read either.

So glad you linked this, some of the most classic shit I've read in years! Kill Stealing, high levels swooping named camps, intentional training in the name of role playing... seems like the wild west. English is obviously his second language but I wish we had more players documenting their adventures like Uenaelar-

VERY far off green. Take the shot of Feerrott: https://uenaelar.forumauberge.com/htm/us/chap020.htm

In current green/teal, you can barely see the top of the ramps from the bottom of them on those temples, much less from 10's of yards away. It's absurd.

Try posting this in the classic darkness thread, you might find you're listened to.

Why do you take a screenshot on greal with ultravision and daytime to compare.
