EQemu does not want to be associated with SoD in any way - they've been shut down by SOE on more than one occasion because what they are doing is illegal.

Shards of Dalaya uses the old EQ Protocol, not the new (6.2 and later) one. It could in theory work, but SoD would have to re-write the protocol and update their packet structures. Plus there's some things in Titanium+ clients that are required... it's a lot of work, but doable.

It would take an incredible amount of work to convert everything they have to somewhat be presentable on the same login-server. Even though the very beginning of this thread states the activity of their server and how it doesn't collide very well with community standards.

I had fun on SoD during the short time I played on it. It was fun to try something different for a change.

Its a fun server but it has a serious "old boy network." Dare to be anything other then a yes man gets you nothing but trouble.

Also the above is enough to get you banned by them.
I had fun but I don't miss the gestapo staff.
