I believe you are referring to Wintersroar or whatever incarnation it is now done by Wiz not s2k. He did give some code to the emu, LoS code i believe which was craptasticly buggy as i recall.

IF I am wrong, I apologize. But I never did understand why they took the login server code (which leaked out as we all know) and ran.

Nobody took the login server and ran....


Winters Roar and S2K just refused to update to the newer versions when they came out so Doodman agreed to keep the older login server up for them.

JEEBUS.

ask an innocent question and open up all sorts of cans of worms. my apologies if this got anyone hot under the collar. i was merely asking the original question for historical sake. i'm kind of new here and before i had discovered eqemulator.net, i had poked around (several years ago) on the hackersquest.com site but that was a dead end as far as i could tell.
