Lol! Yeah, i'll stop working on S.L. and get to posting

[ZexisStryfe]

Oh, by the way, once Sentinel's Fate comes out, I am going to take another stab at your zone files for Tess. Bout time to update them anyway.

You catch what I am doing here?

No...what are you doing here?

[ZexisStryfe]

Post padding!

[Zcoretri]

Well stop it! You're not allowed to pass me up

[JCL]

Are we really having a post count contest... Whats the prize (besides bragging rights)

[John Adams]

Zexis, you might stand down from the zone naming stuff. We're having massive conflicting information on some of the zone names you set before (I know, I know, same old story) but this will give you an excuse to pad more posts here.

What I want for zone "Description" is >>>exactly<<< what we see in the EQ2 Live client when we zone into a zone - definitely not what we think they should be, or wish SOE would have named them not that you did that, but for instance, Zcoretri yelled at me the other day because "The Shattered Vale: Invasion of the Vale" was wrong. He even went into Live to test what you see, and it was just "Invasion of the Vale".

So unless SOE is randomly changing how their zone descriptions appear in the client, I am going with what we get in the collected data.

Go ahead and insert any NEW zones you feel we need, but let's not bother correcting old ones, since we'll do that as we move into that zone.

MKAY? mkay.

Just to clarify, I didn't say "The Shattered Vale: Invasion of the Vale" was wrong, I was saying that the instance I collected from, and later went back to was "Invasion of the Vale". It needs to be added to the table of zones. I'm pretty sure "The Shattered Vale: Invasion of the Vale" is the guild raid zone.

So, it's the same exact zone, same exact name, but somehow what I had it set to was wrong in IRC but not here in this thread.

Just clarifying

[ZexisStryfe]

Just a wacky note on the zone names... sometimes on the old zones, the name isn't always consistent when zoning in. A perfect example of this is player housing which sometimes reads "a nerian residence" and sometimes reads "Vulkoor's 5-room House". I have a feeling this accounts for much of the confusion on the naming of the old world zones. Ultimately however, its your server- you can name them whatever you like!

When the new zones are released I will add them, then you guys can change whatever you like.

[John Adams]

Yeah, I understood the housing (especially) were inconsistent, but what I've done is take a "tour" into every style house and verify what >that< generic name is, and that's what we'll use in our tables.

The example of the Invasion of the Vale was probably more accurate. I think 99% of what you set is perfectly fine, 5 of 6.
