Looking for 0.5.3-DR3 download
Looking for 0.5.3-DR3 download. Can anyone point me in the right direction? I see a bunch of other servers already running it.
Thanks in advance.

Asking where you can download EQemu on this forum is now a instantly banable offense.
If you can't even read the name of the links on the main page, we do not want you playing.

Gotcha. Won't happen again. I must say that I did get my Linux server up and running without a single post and now I'm glad I didn't ask. I respect the rules and humbly apologize.

The OP just wants to know where he can find the latest version, which is far from unreasonable, and it can't be grouped into the same category as someone looking where to download any version. Especially since unofficial snapshots are only referred to offhand, and you never see a download location unless you're in IRC.
There most recent version I know of is Shawn319's package, which is current as of January 12, 2004.
It is located at http://shawn319.eqemulator.net/cvs

You know, this is getting insane...
We dont even try to help people anymore, we take the time to insult, ban, tell them NOT to, but dont take the time anymore to actually try to be helpful...
Everything seems to be a bannable offense now... I'm really getting tired of this 'aura of fear and belittlement' that haunts these forums...
I have to throw my 2 cents in and say this is starting to get out of hand from my perspective....
IceMan, developer code is available via the CVS system on sourceforge, you can obtain it there.
Im confused ,when has it became bannable to ask how to obtain DR code, we've always encourged people to download CVS code as it puts the DR code in the hands of people who can potentially report bugs and/or make code fixes/improvements. That was the whole point in me setting up the CVS update process to make new code available....
Before we bitch about ANYONE else, we need to FIX the portal page to include a total and complete FAQ , good ,thorough and UP2DATE documentation, and enough information that we don't expect someone completely new to EQEMU to have to read for 6 hours to get a general state of the union.... Im looking through the FAQ section, and I'm not seeing a 'HOW TO' on getting development code via CVS.. And even if there was one, the format is so confusing off that page that I doubt many people would find it..
Frankly, the layout of the main page sucks, theres not enough consolidated information , (a what is EQEMU page) , and its all haphazard, I dont blame someone coming in for the 1st time to ask some questions..
As far as Wiz's comment goes regarding asking questions about CVS, he like all of us has the option of not replaying to a post. I don't recall him being elected to set the banning policies at random, especially since a master RULES OF THE ROAD list is not jumping out at me anywhere... If it requires 10 hours of digging to find some obscure rule that a DEV came up with because he got annoyed, its really pointless to punish someone for not seeing it...
Let me make a command level decision and OVERULE asking questions regarding Developer code.. It is not bannable, nor should it ever have been. That does not mean PM the developers , harass them in IRC, etc, but someone should at least be free to ask for the process, as opposed to hoping to god they'll get a search response and then fearing to ask a question because of this oppressive atmosphere.....
OMG I HOPE HAVING AN OPINION ISNT A BANNABLE OFFENSE!

Totally agree. Yes it can be a hassle having to tell people over and over again where to look etc, but if ya want to be a support helper then help. Don't ask this, don't ask that or be banned is starting to get a little lame imho.

Thank you Image, the boards needed that. Two sayings come to mind about the boards:
Quote:
"The beatings will continue until morale improves"
|
Reminds me of the aura of bannage that has hovered over the boards lately.
Quote:
"If the student has failed to learn; the teacher has failed to teach"
|
If the same problem occurs over and over, possibly look inwards and not out to the student...
Dont' get me wrong, I'm not defending everyone who posts questions...some of them are plain pubescent and probably deserve flaming.
I'd love to know if the SF CVS was up to date, i haven't seen any information on it and obviously couldn't ask. I'd love to know the top 3 things the project needs help with. I'd even like to ask where you guys are focusing your efforts (code wise) and what projects are planned for the next couple of months.

Matt, im not blaming you regarding it, you're doing extactly what you were asked to do, and you've done it fairly in my eyes. The problem is not in the support moderators, its in the lack of cohesion in the eqemu project....
I'm going to get with the other developers and admins and work out some changes. A more fair policy regarding how to regulate and admin the boards, the biggest being more tolerance.
The most important in my mind is 1st updating our portal page to include a new RULES guide, then make sure all our information is up to date and complete...
