Are you doing the quests from the witches? I am really happy on how those turned out. It took alot of various database queries to determine the items that dropped in zones nearby...but it took the longest to write all of the flavor text for each quest.

I can appreciate the old school quests from EQ, but they just seemed skewed to the point of "why do them". I still remember having a quest to deliver mail from Faydark to Qeynos and I was maybe level 3 or 4. I found a barbarian to SOW me and ran all of the way...the whole time wondering if something would one-hit kill me. I get to Qeynos...deliver the mail...and get a small amount of copper and a little bit of fame. It just felt like a big waste of time.

Hi. I'm using your solo package too. I started working on my own scripts and then saw a post from you. You did about 90% of what I was thinking of and some I hadn't thought of. The extra quests are great. Thanks for that. I know it's a lot of work.

I tweaked a few things of my own just for my preference in playing. But to your comment about the existing quests, I agree. So I have edited many of those to increase the rewards (plat, exp or item, depending on the quest). I am also working on some code to offer XP for everyday actions. Tailored up a glove, little bit of xp. Caught a fish, little bit of xp. Made some batwing crunchies, little bit of xp. etc. Most of that is still under construction (a lot of work and even some source changes) but I think in the long run worth it. At the end, I want someone to be able to level up doing nothing but quests and tradeskills.

Thanks for sharing your solo code. It's really good stuff.
