well ill add my 2 copper here, Sony is GIVING all expansions up to VoA for free to anyone with the FTP conversion. i know the devs here wish to continue to pursue legal means of obtaining clients and i applaud that as i have supported sony over the years of EQ buying multiple expansions and i dont know how much SC. i fear that before long sharing working clients for the EMU side is going to be the only way for people to play. i cant find a SoF or UF client anywhere ( legal or not ) and had to revert to my 7 year old titanium disks :( . Maybe some means of getting a UF client will show itself soon we can all hope

Legally is it wrong to share something that's free

Another option that may be available soon to players is to use a fully patched F2P client. I have been doing some work to make the new client compatible with EQEmu in this thread:

yes i have been watching that thread and im very excited about it. i may not understand it all right but even if you make the live client work wont server owners need to update the server side to VoA as well. i only ask because i know some servers are heavily customized and if updating will mean undoing all the hard work they have done they may decide not to update. even though EQ is now FTP i believe the EMU still hold many advantages over live and a massive barrier to getting more people into the community is going to be the client. i wish you luck and speed in getting the VOA client working and if i can help in any way i will. untill then im stuck with titanium

I am excited as hell about using the VoA client in the future.

The client is always our holdup. People need to be able to get a client to play.
