Tbh. The reality is that the world needs a game in the same veign as brads vision before the pixel lust. Muddflation. Raiders. And hardcore addicts ruined it with expansion after expansion. A new game without the terrible troubled redundant writing that plagues everquest. Without the triteness, political correctness and populism of wow and its clones. Done by hobbyists and homebrew table top gamers not interested in a massive return on investment or population growth. A game meant to show case a world. And challenge its inhabitants. Oroborousing and attacking p99 and Rogean so you can just continue to clone and copy asexually doesn't achieve any of that. And just degrades the DNA of EQs greatness. | |||

The problem with something like an Everquest emulator is Everquest is a "games as a service" style game. This changes the way the IP holder looks at emulators. This is because an active emulated server is basically "stealing" potential customers away from their business, because another entity has provided a free version of their game. That is why the P99 dev team should be heavily praised for maintaining a good relationship with the Everquest IP holders, and making sure they were not making a profit off of the game. That is why they stick solely to donations intended to keep the server hardware going, and they ban RMT. Honestly P99 is practically a miracle. EDIT: This is why I was saying it's a weird area to begin with when it comes to the EQEMU. Yes, the EQEMU code by itself is made by the EQEMU dev's (to my knowledge), but it is currently being used in P99 for emulating a "games as a service" game. So I am honestly not sure how the EQEMU dev's could bring a legal case (and make money) without also entangling themselves in the Everquest IP side. As I said before, if someone simply took the EQEMU code and used it for something not related to Everquest, then the EQEMU dev's could potentially go after them, as it doesn't involve Everquest anymore. However, even then I am not 100% sure how the law works with a server emulator, as the EQEMU code is basically a reconstruction of the Everquest server code using packet sniffing. So technically the EQEMU code is being developed based on someone else's code, which is not open source. That is where it gets really weird.

I was thinking of doing a cool homebrew Gameboy style steam game in the veign of 1 EQ class and its epic cosmological journey from giant rats to planar riff Raffery for starter funds. Worried I'd get bought out or leepfrogged if toooo successful tho.
Would be pretty cool tho | ||

I offer my sincere apologies for inadvertently slandering Rogean and Nilbog with my poor young lawyering. I clearly should have done more research first. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] I am of course very thankful for everything they do here ... but even more so that they put up with idiots like me. Again, I'm very sorry for my poor judgment.

I'll bite - I think alot of people in this thread need a history lesson.
P99 was formed well before the EQEmulator Project was published to Github, or the project was licensed to GPL3. The code was originally distributed via eqemulator.net under creative commons. | ||
