[MrJag]

just a warning for those who dont use a back up EQ folder
not saying this will break EQEMu but it could so be carefull



On Wednesday, April 28th, 2004 at 4 am PDT(-7 UTC) all english language everquest servers (all but Kael Drakkal and Sebilis) will be coming down for a scheduled update.Estimated downtime is 3 hours.

Upcoming April 2004
We have an update tentatively scheduled for April 28th.

This update should have a lot of exciting and fun additions to the world of EQ including;

A new storybook for you to follow to peruse.

We will be moving a new adventure zone to Legends (the adventure zone currently on Legends should move to live as well).

I highly suspect that since SOE's undertaking the big DX9 engine redesign we're gonna have a whole bunch of game-breaking patches over the next several months.

Well, game-breaking for Emu at least, and as an added bonus a handful of game-breaking patches for Live too! :lol:

Anyways, I don't know how much trouble it is for the devs to rework the net code each time they make a patch that breaks our entering the world servers... but if it's a lot of trouble you might wanna consider just biting the bullet and saying ok, for the next month or 2 we're gonna work on moving the project forward and we're not gonna put that on hold 5 days out of every week to scramble and try to fix what Sony broke. If you patch during this time, TOUGH NOOGIES.

Actualy when the patch comes if it breaks eqemu i am going to patch, you know why? so i can collect packets.

[RangerDown]

mmmmmm packets /drool

[Yzien]

yeah im going to have to get an EQ backup folder thanks for info man

[Gossamer]

Should sticky this in every forum as a warning lol. You know after the patch the questions of why the game doesnt work with the emulator will be in every forum heh.

I never use a backup folder anymore, its an added incentive to getting the code fixed if you cant play until it is :)

[mikenune]

Hehe. The difference here is that you're a dev and can actually pitch in to get the code done faster. We're just the poor schmoes that have to sit on our behinds and wait.

And believe me, there's a BIIIIG differeence between sitting on your behind playing computer and sitting on it waiting! :D
