Let me get this straight.. You've been a "programmer" for 25 years but you think p99 devs are out here "recoding Titanium's files"? Yikes. You come across as extremely entitled when you say stuff like "they've sourced us players for a decade to get their programming down pat". I think you meant they've sourced players for 10 years to get the database down pat? Just because players have voluntarily given up information doesn't mean they owe you anything in the end. You act like it was the players that actually did the work required to turn that information into a reality on their DB/source. You also grossly mischaracterized what I said. I said it's never been easier to start your own project. Never said it was easier than ever to replicate P99. Good luck with getting anything from anyone though. Might wanna start "recoding those Titanium files" yourself. Should be easy for someone with your wealth of knowledge/experience. | ||||

P99 is an example of HARD WORK. What the devs have done here, and eqemulator in general has taken years. Take note.
And it is all doable by anyone, you want it all done for you and open source? That isn't how this works.. You would just say "oh no i need it done for me.." because that is the natural tone of lazy cynical ignorant people. Calling yourself a programmer.. Yikes. Literally every older game has it all in "programmer" language, ready for you to decipher, like the P99 team did for years.. All to have idiots like you scrutinize them, grow up you goof. | ||

It would be nice if P99 team had a test server using good p99 database where people could go and screw around with whatever p99 team was screwing around with.
That would get my jollies pretty good. Especially of course a pvp version. My main hope is that p99 team at least might state that they will make their hard work public domain if they ever decide to throw in the towel like the project loses steam for some reason. Just would be a shame to see that go away. | ||

They kind of did that pre-velious release with a server for testing stuff, so I'd think it wouldn't be impossible.

I don't imagine they ever will release the server files while p99 is still online. I do hope that once the plug is pulled that they do share the files however.

As a programmer, you can make your own version of P99. Splose laid it out for you.
I see that you're a young programmer who is spoiled by pre-built libraries. Let them have their fun and profit and maybe they will release it later. You know, when real programmers exploit the logic that they can literally read themselves... it's best to wait til the ship sinks before handing out the blueprints to the enemies. | ||

Hey OP, if you're interested in starting your own server it really is a lot easier than it's ever been.
Akkadius is a golden god of eqemu and has set up dev tools to maker pretty much everything can point and click. Check out this website: http://eoc.akkadius.com/EOC2/ Here's his github https://github.com/Akkadius. If you don't feel like spending 10 years with a team of devs plus crowd sourcing from thousands of beta testers. This: http://www.eqclassic.org/index.php was the project that had all the hype before P99 came and just bled it out by launching first. Perhaps you can beg them for their source code, it would likely be more interesting since I think they did actually start from scratch. Good LUCK! keep us posted on your progress and let us know when your server is launching!

TAKP have stated they intend to make everything public, after TAKP have reached end of content and Time is completed by players.
Then hopefully someone makes a new classic server, with mouse scroll, and no 5 years of Sirken, Amel, Deru etc bullshit. | ||

I question the OP’s motivations for not creating their own eqemu server. I also, in spite of such abrasive accusation, politely request free hand outs from OP.
