Using old style maps

So in Project1999 they have old style maps and characters which is very cool and my thing is how can you do something like that?

I'm thinking it involves the Maps folder and maybe the patch clients but idk and would love if someone could help me ;-):)

Are you talking about disabling the map? .DLL Injection

Or do you mean old zones? If so, there's a plethora of information on how to use old zones over new ones.

Change the zone points to the old zone ID in the database. Make sure you have the appropriate files in the EQ installation directory.

If I remember correctly there's only one issue with Titanium+ clients and that's Highpass Hold.

Code:

SELECT short_name,zoneidnumber FROM `zone` order by zoneidnumber;

Here's another list if you'd prefer: http://wiki.eqemulator.org/p?Zones

You change the target_zone_id to point to your destination in zone_points.

I gave you two references?

Okay, let's use Grobb as an example. It's a classic zone that currently puts you into innothuleb if your client is capable (well, technically if the database says).

Let's use the following query to help us:

Code:

SELECT * FROM `zone_points` where `zone` = 'Grobb';

We see two records with the main difference being the client_version_mask. This is basically saying if you're using X or greater client you'll use this record. Copy the classic record information to your clients entry and type #reloadzps
