HQ is pretty good for being closed sorce but, its way behind where EQEMU is. IMO its not even worth downloading.

Hackers quest is a joke. I mean, they've done some decent stuff, but there is no support, meaning that if you have a tecnical problem, you get chewed out for being an idiot and a newb and possibly banned. Not to mention the fact that its closed source, the zones (if I remember right) are located all on the same comp (cant host zones on seperate servers, bad for big servers!). Just various things that have impressed me very much about EQEMU that HQ has not even tried to live up to.

Just my opinion, sorry if it's a little extreme.

HMMM.....
Haven't checked it out in quite awhile??
It has the ability to host Login , World , and Zone servers on seperate machines.
It also is no longer closed source , all work from here on is C++ , not ruby anymore , all additions are made with individual DLLs.
I'd give him credit for bringing it this far , it's actually looking promising.

Really? Maybe I just remembered wrong. But, yea, even getting that far is quite impressive, I'm just saying that the attitude of the people behind the project is sketchy at best, and it reflects in the usability of the program.

It was a one man show for a long time.
Went open source several months ago.
Zordon was the only coder I knew of , and he rarely made any appearances.

Really? Obviously my information is just skewed, I'm going to shut up. I lurked on their forums, and they were not nearly as friendly as these.

Friendly??? not long ago every newbie who asked for the patcher was flamed, and if i remember right some are banned.

Hackerquest is a simple zipfile which comes with a integrated Database so no SQL is needed. simply unzip, copy one file into everquest and it works. and finally it works with the current version of everquest. Thats a lot more than this emu does...

no...hackersquest is too much for some people to set up...on here all you gotta do is change your eqhost file and log on

same there only copy the eqhost file.
if you read the problems there, these are guys who have the game here, and the emu there, and so on. Hackerquest is only the Serversoftware, Eqemu has its own server, thats the different.
and i believe that is much easier too make your own server with hackersquest than with EQemu.
