Can Nilbog actually make entire zones? I don't think he can do that.

There's a whole forum dedicated to that kind of thing. I have faith <3

Classic is a state of mind. The problem with eqlive isn't that it those darn new expansions need to get off my lawn, it's that they have diverted from what made classic EQ unique and trivialized classic content.

Blackburrow forces occupying large parts of Qeynos. Maye as an event of some kind for various reasons.

Wow alot of you have some really nice ideas to this, that follow with story and whatnot.

Would freaking pay 30$ a month to play something like this in a second.

What I would LOVE too see is that they changed around on what ZEM different zones had. It would bring life to alot of abandonded zones and force players to explore.

The Crushbone orcs invade Kelethin and have to be beaten back by an army of newbies, only in-zone NPCs and people under level 15 can participate because everyone with more experience is in far away lands!

Low-quality 3D modelling is easier to get into than you might think. I know I was surprised how easy making half-decent weapon models was once I got a hang of the basics, speaking as someone with zero creative ability. Zones would definitely take some effort, but classic-style zones tend to have fairly simple geometry, and ultimately they'd probably just need one person to really get into it and become the zone design guru. Texturing is the only really "arty" part of the process, but those don't need to be very good quality either...

Actually getting custom models into the game is not too hard. Zones have some restrictions, but nothing the devs couldn't fix with the injector.
