I think a MMORPG maker would be worth it . There could be a fantasy MMORPG maker, Sci-fI MMORPG maker. If you could create customizeable MMORPGS with graphics like Matrix Online or Everquest 2 and on a large scale like that. But it sure would probably take a while to make.

-Damien

an mmorpg maker will never produce a quality mmorpg sry.. besides, there are already mmorpg makers.. there called free engines + a coder + someone who knows 3dsmax/maya/photoshop .. no mmorpgmaker will ever do a better job than that .. especially if you just choose fantasy and it randomly generates the maps, quests, npcs, mobs... that idea sucks huge balls.

however eq1 on eq2 engine would pwn amazing amounts of ass.. when eq2 emu comes out im totaly gonna work on that lol

Any way to get collects for eq2 into the hands of the people that need them? I have not touched the bin files, but I know some people who are collecting (myself included) and would like to submit these to the devs.

Send the files to the people who need them through email.

Does anyone have any idea on when the first release will be?

does anyone want to start a project where we bring classic everquest gameplay to eq2 engine with eq2emu.. complete with all new zones based on the old world everquest?

EQ2 is so diferent from EQ1 that it wouldnt be feesable.

the gameplay / classes / spells / everything about it is so diferent it would be like saying " lets take a City of heroes EMU and make it EQ " Totle diferent animals

A question. In EQ 2 do you actually get to own a boat and drive it and all?

Mattmeck is right, but still, it would be fscking cool.

knight i asked my friend and he said yes he knows where the boat merchant is but he doesnt have near enuf money.

Mattmeck: eqemu servers can have different gameplay / class's / spells from eqlive. give me a logical reason it cant work. oh wait, you cant lol!

By adding "lol!" to the end of that, you made your self look like a friggan idiot.

But for some logical reason, ok. Two different games, different codes, etc. And Im sure you cant make it all the way you want it, cause there WILL be something different, that you cant do. Thats a logical reason, and no I wont play your retard game "and this is why...".

lol

dont see the problem here dont see where that will be a problem either. now thats what i call a logical reason .. lol not

Ok, try taking EQ and turning into BF1942. Both are 2 different games and have 2 different codes.

lmao. try taking eq2 and turning into eq1. both are 2 diff games and have 2 diff codes, yet its not a retarded and impossible idea.

try taking a bf1942 and make a mod to be eq, now thats plausible

The way combat and spells are set up you cant make EQ2 into EQ1, try playing EQ2 before you say everyone else is wrong, you have no clue what your talking about and are just trying to Troll the forums.

your the one trolling my post trying to get the eq1 remake project going. im watching my friend playing and i know how eq2 plays. :evil:

This is a thread about EQ2 EMU, not ew1 remake whatever.

How diffrent will the EQ2Emulator be from the EQ1 Emulator?

I just orded EQ 2 and would die for an emulator 4 it ,as once again i find my self short of money to fund my monthly subscription fee!

So if there is one in the making or compleated plz plz keep me up to date !

or email me a tobyisatramp@hotmail.com

SORRY $ SUCH A LAME FIRST POST! :?

eqemu2.sourceforge.net

eqemu2db.sourceforge.net


died?

or killed by sony ?

just like gotwow?

We can hope not.... Long live EQ 2 Emulator!

It will be coded right the first time? =X

We can hope. I hope some new information gets released soon.

If you get a collector built and ready to go, i have an active account and play constantly, will be more then happy to collect for you :D

Go for it Dominica.

So what is the progress on the EQ 2 Emulator? It seems everything has been quiet for awhile.

I pmed Zordon on the MXO fourms he is working on the EQ2Collector and things are going extremely slow and he has loads of other work to do. It will probably be awhile till we see a EQ2 Emulator.

The collector isn't the issue. it's almost done. (the first part anyways). We've got a rather large and growing DB of EQ2 data already.

FYI, blizzard killed GotWow, not sony. And don't hold your breath for a EQ2emu for a long time. It's so far off it's not even funny. Collection progress is going very smoothly though. Been collecting data on EQ2 since day 1.

So we probably won't be seeing an EQ2Emu till later next year. Next summer if we are lucky?

Id say next summer, if not later.

Though the project could speed up, who knows.

it took a few years after eq1's release to get one even resembling a workable prototype. i'm sure eq2 may be faster because of the advances in collecting. but it very well may take a few years.

It would be a bummer to have to wait a few years in order for the first release. I hope the project speeds up.

Well... if you had no clue there was one and it just came up it wouldnt suck to wait, cause you wouldnt be waiting.

So.. this was pointless. Forget about the Emu for a while.

Scorpx725, you mean summer 2005 or summer 2006? i dont mind waiting cause i know the devs making a hell of a job! í head alot of complaining about eqemu still, all i can say is hush :P seriously! them devs working the hardest they can!... so



WTG DEVS

Well, as Sotonin said, it would most likely be somewhere around a year atleast from now to get something working. Then getting it actually playable.. eh

Id say summer '06 for a playable project. Having something working on the other hand, much quicker.

woot so like a fully working playable version 2006, not too bad! i said it before and i say it again!





WTG DEVS!

I'm sure that this dev team won't be involved in the EQ2 emulator. Go ahead and give em credit anyways if you like, I'm sure they won't complain :P. You'll most likely see Hackersquest be the first to come out with the EQ2 emulator.

That said, I think this current dev team does deserve a WTG for their EQ1 emulator.

WTG DEVS!!!

well sorry :P i give them credit cuz if they didnt make EQ1, they prob wouldnt have the knowledge to make EQ2emu at all!



so once again, WTG DEVS

As Rogean mentioned earlier this month....

"EQEmu will remain alive, although I don't know how active many of the developers will be. Many of us, including myself, will be playing EQ2 =P"

I think I'm understanding why it's taking so long for a current version of emu to come out. Also maybe why you haven't heard from a dev on here for updates on the progress of the patch......they all playin EQ2 =).

Seriously though, if the devs don't want to work on EQ1 anymore (curse my thoughts) and concentrate on EQ2 that is fine, but this site has grown with many more fans since the live patch of DEC 17. I think it would be a great parting gift to give everyone one final emu to work with 12/17. Not to mention you would shut up alot of redundant posts I know we all get tired of seeing =). BTW, can there be a sticky or main post just saying "Don't ask when new emu will be out, or you will be banned until your great-grandchildren die"? Is that too forward? =)

Anyway, It will be a sad day indead when the last EQ1 emu comes out...........=(. I guess all things must come to an end.

Its stated all over that we dont give status reports and there is no ETA, if you want a statuus report pull the most recient code off CVS and look at whats still broke.

If stating it in 500 places, and the fact that people dont bother to read stickys hence why so many people get banned for posting warez, what makes you think this would work?
