mattmeck: you'd better be giving me one of those damn beers now... I'm gonna need it :P

Very nice work there :)

The wanker stayed up till 4:30am fighting with OpenGL because mipmapping was turned on... Ahh, the power of sleep deprivation. Enjoy, enjoy, OpenEQ is on its way!

Make that 5am, mostly fighting with textfocus issues :P

You can now switch between zones by just typing in the name and hitting 'Select' :D

Memory leak's been fixed. Lots going on :)

Thats the shit btw

if you use the zones or any other of their work isnt it just as illegal?and if your not going to use their zones, quest, npcs, or any of their work, make a whole new game, why would you do it on open eq/open zone and not a game engine? i dont get the point.. even if you remake eq its just as illegal, so all openeq sounds good for is making a new mmorpg, so shouldnt it be called MMORPG MAKER 2005 or something instead?

Why would it be illegal?
OpenEQ simple opens up and displays files you already have. It's no more illegal than openoffice being able to work with microsoft word documents.

Of course if you wish to use openeq to display everquest zones you need to have obtained the zone files legally but that's no different to any other program and nothing to do with the openeq program itsself.

I didnt say it would, I said it would be no less illegal than eqemu already is.

word docs are openly free for anyone to read, but soe doesnt want people using their work so others can enjoy it for free while others have to pay. and if you dont use any eq zones, or any npc's or quest's since all that and anything related to norrath is copywrighted, your server wont have anything to do with eq. so then theres the question, why use open eq? its just another game engine.

Wrong, before openoffice cames out, if you didnt have Word or Wordpad, you were kinda fucked, why you think doc is an "open format" ? Only because doc format exist since ages ...

OpenEQ is not illegal, its what you do with it that is illegal, but to be sure you will understand those words, lets make a little compare, like, DVD burner are not illegal, its what you do with your DVD burner that is illegal.

I'll give you another example.

"Guns don't kill people; people kill people."

Ok. Let's drop this discussion please. If you want to continue it, create a new thread.

Okay lets see how this thread went. I posted this question.
what are the responses?

Do i need to explain to you guys again that its still illegal if you plan to do any eq emulation or eq recreation? making open eq really just another game engine?

Drop it.

hahaha I see the hermit's house :) nice work

Also... why do people come to these forums and push legality issues on us ? obviously if this is an area your not comfortable with... stay away ;)
