    Does that strap distribute weight better? I've been VRing some in the mornings and I just can't seem to get any adjustment that doesn't put all the weight on my forehead. I took the built in headphones off my rift when I first got it to use some hyperx headphones, but my extra USB card died so...

    From what I remember of the design early days, it was a seasonal keep / relic style thing with the winners taking a slight advantage into the next season. It is a solid idea, trying to prevent the usual server rot where the losing side all quit or join the winning faction.

    Everquest TLP - Aradune and Rizlona Servers (Now with real customer service)

    I've looked into making new character models a little bit. I think the trickiest bit will be tricking the game into running a decent shader and getting information it will need plugged into it each frame (affecting light locations and types, velocity vector etc). The p99 people have made some...

    Guilty. Usually it is just that I don't want to blow more than a month of my life. Sometimes I'll go 2. Selo was different though? I remember doing velious and kunark stuff. I was trying to rely on my 2000's memories. "Hey this cave is great for armor gems. What is that giant bear thing...

    It's true, there isn't much change since EQ without big moves towards action. All innovations shortly after were primarily interface driven and led to needing your eyeballs glued to the UI instead of watching the action. People tried mixing in active dodge and I've never seen that done well...

    Kirun is right I am old and I most definitely do not like "skill" based combat. To me, when I see RPG, I think of systems where my character stats are the determining factor of a battle's outcome. That and a bit of dice rolling. I see it that way because I grew up on Ultima and Bard's tale...

    I've played a little bit of bdo and watched alot more. I AM old and hate action combat, so I went with wizard so I could hurl stuff from afar. The silly pretend-your-keyboard-is-a-dpad combat elements of most of the classes were not appealing at all. Felt like a virtual fighterish spaz on the...

    Yea as long as the code builds anything is possible. Hell Secrets doesn't even need source code :D I still love Yerm's idea of more expansions open but with level limits that go up every month. So raiders can try to take on kunark and luclin targets at level 50. And levelers have more places...

    I need something new this time. Something wacky would make me feel better about wasting a month or two of my precious ever dwindling time. It will probably be mundane though, and I'll probably play anyway. Dammit.

    My wild guess theory as to what happened with the models: Early on when the beta models were put in I'm guessing the sports side of the company contributed, as the run anims and stuff look borrowed from there. Whoever did the originals did alot with such a limited poly budget, and probably...

    Practice! I normally skip it but I missed all the testing and such. They really need to enforce track limits. Silly to see them going so wide.

    I think it was during velious. I remember the 24 limit during classic. We went up to 30 for kunark, but I think it was more a result of people getting off dialup? It's all fuzzy.

    I'd rather have less restrictions, not more. Or randomize race/class combos. I think they've avoided this because of trainers, the little note to turn in etc, but overcoming those challenges would be something fun for veterans (99% of tlp players). They need to do something to make it more...

    The uber wizard in the graphs was probably Tsien. An amazing player, almost perfect attendance, and probably the best geared in the world at the time. I only got near his damage on Xegony as a necromancer.

    It's March, where's my new TLP? I want something new like half elf clerics or human shaman or or or high elf necromancers. And start in luclin with level cap of 50. Randomly shifting zems changing daily at noon! Dwarf wizards! Surprise me I dunno

    I've been so starved for owl I started rewatching the 2019 season. All the teams were terrible for some reason. There were some bright points (nico on mei) but even the shock looked awful. That was just the opening weekend though. I switched from that over to the steelseries invitational...

    The meteor strike was really cool. A few of the guys wanted to try and salvage the world but it was really messed up. We did a backup of both so we might end up doing that at some point but I think everyone is jumping over to Valheim. Free from the deadline I just want to make some of the...

    12 days left and we might just make it. One thing I didn't factor in is food. Good food can give you a big xp multiplier. Also houses improve over time with little nicknacks and rugs and statues that also boost xp. So We now have all the major skill lines covered. All we need now is to find...
