Seems like an arbitrary line to draw since there are other non-classic things on PQ, but that's his decision. It's not even certain that it could be fixed, but at least he's willing to look into it if it's indeed classic.
Feels weird posting takp threads on p99 forums, but here's the discussions takp had when implementing the GCD clicky bug/exploit:

https://www.takproject.net/forums/in...evisited.6055/

https://www.takproject.net/forums/in...-to-cast.5780/

I don't actually see it mentioned anywhere that using clickies twice was required, but there's old AK players that were still fresh off AK at that point, saying single click worked. When this was first implemented on TAKP, it had an internal cooldown on clickies, so there was small delays forced between using clickies themselves. Looking at posts alone, I don't see why this couldn't be posted as a bug report on TAKP or PQ today.

So i been playing the BETA but i really hate how mouselooks work in there, trying to look up with the mouse, makes you look down and viceversa, plus is super clunky AF...

Yes, that option exists, but then it inverts your mouselook elsewhere (first person) which creates a new problem.

The mousewheel camera is a client hack. It doesn't work very well yet. Secrets is trying to improve it and a new update is scheduled for around October 15th. Ultimately Secrets is working to support EverQuest Evolution as the main client, which is very similar to the current client but includes the patch that added the real mousewheel camera like P99 has.

You can wait for these fixes, but I recommend just getting used to playing in first person more because vanilla EQ launches are a lot of fun.

I would love to see this day one. Bard is my favorite class, but I can't play it without melody due to wrist pain.

melody would be incredibly. i wanna play a bard, and i can manually twist, but i really don't want too. I never realized how tedious and annoying twisting was until i didnt have to do it while playing on Mischief TLP. Switching instead to having 4-6 different melody macros you use was much more engaging and allowed me to focus on more fun aspects of the game instead of all my mental energy on manually twisting.

I would also like to thank Secrets as well. Looking forward to getting some Quarm on, but still can't decide on my class. While I want Necro, it just doesn't feel right unless it's all Iky!
