Long time lurker...

Post by KhaineGB » Sat Jun 22, 2013 10:40 pm

As the topic says... i've lurked for a very long time, but never posted. :)

Thought i'd get an account made so I can try and break the test server, but I suspect all my clients might be too new as I do play on live (will check my laptop as that hasn't been updated for about a week).

Sadly I can't code worth a damn. But I do have several level 95 crafters on live (Armorer, Tailor, Weaponsmith, Sage & Jeweler) and I can use my fiancee's 93 Alchemist.

Wondering if maybe I could help out with content in any way because of my army of crafters.

Anyway. Nice to meet you all!

Welcome.

Current live will connect to our server but there are still a lot of issues with it, if you have a client from just before the last major GU that would be the best as that is currently our most stable clients.

As for content we could always use more people, currently thefoof is the only one working on content, if you are interested in helping in that talk to John Adams.

PS - Glad to have an active crafter around, all my trade skill code was based off of my knowledge from my many crafters, however I have not played live for some time now so some of it may be off.

I dont have a client from just before the GU.

However, I did buy CoE in steam just to get the licence key. I should be able to download that.

Steam tends to update there clients every now and then, I haven't figured out when they decide to update, it seems random to me. However if the client is between CoE and the last GU it should work on our servers.

Don't lose anything by trying.

Absolute worse case, I do have a TSO boxed set...

I shall get my irc client setup on my PC and hop in at some point.

I'd love to run an RP server, so would really like to try and help in any way I can. :)

Apparently steam downloaded EQ2 while I wasn't looking on the laptop.

According to my properties, I have build file 9825L, which I believe is pre-GU (pretty sure the GU was 11xxxL).

The build right before the ProSebien update was 10056L... fingers crossed.

EDIT: Booted up, CoE splash screen! Thank you steam. :D Now to see if I can get on Tess

And all connected with no problems! Been able to make 2 characters so far, so that's good.

First one was a Freeblood Beastlord, which logged into Frostfang Sea with no problems. Second one is a High Elf Illusionist, which is running around Greater Faydark with no major problems.

Looks like I have bugs to submit. :)

Thanks!

I've already started comparing live items to data feeds to see if building full class spell lists is possible. Might get the server installed on my laptop so I can work on that in my spare time. :)
