ok let me get this straight:

When you sign onto the real game using the real servers, they make you download a patch right? and this patch updates you to play thier game. If you use your real install and you download the patch you dont download 3gb of stuff right?

BUT, if I want to use this eqemu I have to not only get the latest patch (prior to 5/11 of course) but also EVERY patch since the CD that we have? (the Cd Set is the EQ Trilogy BTW)

Why does the EQEmu server need all that old information then? As it was explained to me, all this patch info isnt even really required by EQ, it doesnt log into your windows reg, and it isnt for the most part accessed. They cant build this on a different approach to get around the system? I mean... *IF* the eqemu is emulating a real EQ server, and a REAL EQ server has whatever info you need to run the game, why do they drop it on the eqemu downloader to go on a paperchase for the patch crap **AND** how can they have the audacity to chastise and aggro the people looking to USE thier eqemu JUST because those people are asking for FILES that the EMU **SHOULD** have?

it doesnt make a whole lot of sense.

and BTW, those files are NOT warez.. read some copyright laws guys
