SoD Starter Pack /w UF from Steam

Wow. I was looking through eqstr_us.txt, eqgame.exe and various DLLs trying to see where that message was coming from. It never occurred to me that it could come from zone!

Nice find

Just done a few live traces and indeed UCS chat, sending mail, /friend etc are now relayed through zone on chat channel 20.

Zone must then forward them onto the UCS for delivery, since when I receive a chat message from someone else, it doesn't appear in the zone trace.

Wonder why they did that ...

Probably easiest to have a single connection between World and UCS, rather than each zone server establishing it's own connection.

Also it would probably make sense to have World just listen for an incoming connection from UCS, rather than the other way around.

The scary thing is I didn't even have to look at the code, I just knew where it was in the code. I am becoming way too familiar with this thing.

After I read this, I went for a tour around PoK, only stone I had missing,
is Neriak (platform is there, but no stone).
But found the Gukta stone over by the Rivervale one.

The Neriak Portal issue was already discussed and resolved here:

As for the Crescent Reach portal, that is for a new zone that the PEQ DB isn't really caught up to yet. They have Crescent Reach done, but the CR portal actually goes to Blightfire Moors which they probably won't have done until they are caught up to that expansion.
