For all the feeling against sending EQ's files and using outdated clients, it makes one rather curious as to why the patcher was brought back online--for just a host file? Just wondering, not criticizing ^.^; And while this isn't really the thread for it, thus I'll be brief, it'd be nice to eventually have a patcher to update the emu binaries once they're released.
It's a given that EQ will continue to patch and break the Emu, and that developers with free time will bring the emu back to functionality eventually. I'd imagine that those who are continuously updating the project would be able to best determine how they'd like to go about it based on their goals for the project.
It's obvious that basic compatibility with the live client is a big priority, for good reason. It should come as no surprise, then, that when a patch breaks the live client, attention becomes (seemingly, at least, from my perspective) more focused on bringing it back up to speed before working on the smaller systems of the emu.
Not to mention you get a lot less clam on the boards for not having combat complete than you do for not being able to log in entirely all of a sudden~
