Old Source/Binaries

[Tabidzukare]

Greetings,

I've read the rules and it only mentions not asking for older sony related content. My query is in regards to old EQEmu items and I'm not sure if anyone knows whether or not their available. I have tried *everything* possible I can think of and I'm getting nowhere.

I'm looking for older EQEmu source code / binaries, this includes older minilogin releases. I have my own necessary EQ files ('New Dawn' release (up to luclin)) and others that run on versions (I've heard anyway.. ) 3.8 / 4.3. I am already aware that these older EQEmu sources are extremely bug ridden.. lack databases etc, it doesn't matter, I'm interested in the older sources and getting and old client to work simply for the education of the process as I'm studying to code for the current project.

I'm also not ambitious enough to consider a server or any kind of 'public' project, I'm talking about just pouring through the older code myself and building it in tandem with where it's gone in my own time simply to familiarize myself with HOW these sorts of games work from a ground level.

I've checked on sourceforge and a number of other means and I cannot seem to find the older packages anywhere though from other (unreliabe) locations I have *seen* some older downloads which I've avoided. I would like to get it from the legitimate source and I hope this doesn't rub anyone the wrong way by asking.

I look forward to any response, and in addition if anyone could direct me to some clear compatibilities (ex. a freshly installed unpatched 'new dawn' install works with emu version 3.8 .. etc etc).

Finally, I want to say that I greatly appreciate the work that everyone here in the community does as it provides so many facets of game programming and tool programming from all of the amazing free projects that are open in free here. Again I want to stress my apology in advance if this is a sensitive or barred subject for the forums, I did check to make sure it was not inappropriate to ask this question before posting.

With kindest regards,
and as always,
Great respect~~

Gah , I would have had our 3.2 source / binaries still if it were not for a Fire which destroyed our server some 5+ years ago....

However I know that you can still get those old school binaries SOMEWHERE .. Just not sure where at anymore...

Hi Mort,

Thanks for responding. I though the same thing too.. viewing old caches of the eqemu.net page I can see all of the old archived links to the packages but they're not maintained by sourceforge.. I figured they had to be there somewhere but the search options on sourcforge to me seem hardly intuitive as I can get for example release reports and odd downloads from places like the smithy's anvil (emulation site) from the EQEmu sourceforge repository, yet when I search for the blasted things myself I get no results from SF.

I know they are there, and it is an open source project and was even back then (though I know there was a period when the Login Server was held closed) so I know it's available. I feel horrible to ask, but I really have exhausted my own means of finding these older resources.

Anyone else have any insight??

Kindest Regards~~

The best I can do is offer you the S2k Source which I purchased some years back... Contact me in IRC
