Well that was short lived i just got them to work for me a coupla months ago and i could never get into the game cause of how stupid lookin my iksar was lol.., but when i got the luclin models on my iksr warrior looked like he was bulky instead of flimsy and i started playing much more. I dunno maybe its immersion or maybe its cause i never really got into classic models. Oh well thx for the server guys its was a nice trip down memory lane.

Yeah, it still hurts for me too. I play much less, but still occasionally log in because as of now, nothing compares to the overall quality of this server.

If you like Luclin models I suggest www.everquest.com.

People quitting over Luclin models, I don't get it.

Hokkay, found some time where I was bored: for you luclin model lovers out there, a quick and dirty workaround thingy https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/...ide%20Door.zip

On the one hand, it also works around the internal model dependencies (don't need human for erudite or wood elf for other elf). On the other hand, I hope you like baldness and, if a robe-wearer, pantslessness. External mesh pieces (like the baggy parts of robes) don't seem to get loaded correctly. Dunno if that would be fixable by cramming more data in there (where is hair even loaded from?). No idea if this applies to bulky plate armor or not!

Suitably flawed, but I wouldn't expect this to work for very long in any case.

Pssst... Luclin models are still available and have not been confirmed to be against the rules by any official source. Anyone claiming you'll get banned or that Luclin models were removed is either dumb or being dishonest. The way I understand it is that they nerfed the previous method to enable Luclin models because of an exploit people were using on Red server to turn Skeleton models into Human models to circumvent people using AoN's to remove their nameplates. Thus changes were made to verify the globalload file when you log into the game. This had the side-effect of disabling Luclin models that were enabled with the previous method. The method quoted above still works for Luclin models and hasn't been forbidden by any official source. Fair warning there are some graphical glitches with these models. Some of the Velious armor doesn't load right. But it works well enough.

All credit to Zaela. Pras on the good work.

I hope this rebellion is crushed and we can all continue to enjoy just classic models.

Red screwing everything up for everyone.

I just absolutely cannot fathom the whining that surrounds this. It's like some of you completely overlook the reality of the situation:

1) The devs that own and run this server are in charge of its direction, full stop
2) They have been consistently stating for years what that direction is, and have literally never changed from, "we are going to make it as classic as possible."

That's pretty much it. If that doesn't work for you, no problem! Fortunately P2002 is a thing now and choice is always good, right?

pras no more AoN hacks; forced old skeles
