EQ2 Emulator?

link2009 · #1 09-20-2006, 01:45 PM

Thank you so much for that last post, I can finally fiddle and release a good version of EQ2Emu

But for god's sake, I am using Tortoise CVS to get the repository and I can't insert a blank password for anonymous and it won't work! I even tried my sourceforge.net user/pass and it still won't accept it! Can you help me a little lol? Thanks

I use WINCVS.
there is no password you just press return in dos when I check it out.
you not going to be able to fiddle much because they didnt release a
login server for it... just server code.
Tortoise CVS isnt the right way to check out this project. unless it supports blank passwords.

I feel like such a noob but I can't export the module...can you please give me a few instructions?

Nevermind, I did it, thanks a lot.

Well, after countless hours of reading through the source, I have not yet been able to make the LoginServer function :(. Any programmers here want to help?

Doesn't ANYBODY care about EQ2? :'(.

Can I at least buy www.eqemulator2.net and re-start this great project?

I care, I just don't have any C++ skills. I would love an EQ2emu. Also, I don't have a live account. I wouldn't even know where to start.

EQ2 is really pretty and I like how the tradeskills are integrated. I do wish more people who knew how to program in C++ and had a general idea how it worked would jump in.

As for me, it'll be some time before I can help. (I plan to take classes in programming at main campus)

P.S. While www.eqemulator2.net is an offical name. Ever think to reg www.EQ2emu.net so people could type it in faster? Then later you could buy www.eqemulator2.net when it times out and set up a redirect.

its true that this is an EQ emulator site but you have to remember it was started when there was no EQ2 and there was another competing EQ emulator project. a lot of effort has gone into making EQEMU and certainly the project shouldnt be diverted into other things. however at one time there was discussions about other emulators for even non Sony MMOs.

This topic has been useful for me since i plan to open a site soon that is for any Open Source MMO and any future P2P equivalent. Of course i will still favor EQ probably because i spent about a milllion hours playing it and consider myself a minor expert of that game system.

wb, madborg. fyi, there's about 100 of these "all mmos" project sites out there already, including my own (but I'm a super-dick admin and don't let anyone in I don't know personally

)

I didnt know what was under the hood of ManGOS, but I knew its original concept was to be adaptable to any circumstance, but yep, guess it wouldnt work here. Could possibly work as a server altogether after some long sleepless hours whacking away at code, but hey, why do that when this is already here.

Still courious about the mini-login though, wether or not it can be altered and adapted to work with eq2 instead of eq1. Probably too much hassle.

100?? i am tired now.

ok, i exaggerated.. maybe 98.

I actually think we should get together a second team to work on a login server. And if we can do so, a dedicated eq2emu website as well.

John Adams · #14 07-12-2007, 08:39 PM

When link2009 was pushing this project along, I offered my site (eq2.mmoemulators.com) as a temporary community site, but he said he "had it covered".

Shrug.
