- This is the Far Journey zone as close as possible to the EQ2 Live experience in 2005. Currently Live has the Far Journey, but it is modified and is missing the tutorial information. www.eq2emulato... and www.eq2emu.com
It's sad how much the current game has been downgraded in terms of graphics, baked in lightmaps etc. Really good to see the old version of extreme quality running smooth.
This looks exactly like current live version, except they have hidden the old CPU based shadows which are very poor performance (but look great at times). You just type /r_shadow_type 1 in chat to enable the CPU shadows.
Honestly don't see any difference at all with the live game. Besides the old style UI (what is the point? Unless it is needed to run old mechanics?). And the tutorial sounds boring as hell. Love Island of Refuge, but happy not to have to sit through that voice actor telling me what XP and quests are (yawn, does anyone today really need these instructions?).
Not sure what you mean about baked in lightmaps. The game uses old shaders anyway.
They did over time remove things like the ice wall, and the chains / root spell effects that were very taxing on performance as well..
@@fabd-tv sorry meant the current live content such as the city of Seru etc. The old lighting and shadows were dynamic, kinda a fake raytracing.
@@phillipkeidge475 Interesting, this is relatively recent content I didn’t play. Do ypu mean they releas3d this 3ansion with graphical features they later removed or trimmed somehow?
Dude you can skip the tutorial, this is showing off the emulator tech and recreation of content not even live can reproduce anymore.. why so grim?
i doubt they could recreate it as it was I'm sure too much has been lost.
Cool. I would like to see much more. Does the emulator use the old attribute system where all stats affect all classes? Does it use the old crafting system where you have to make all of the different parts of an item before you could actually put it all together?
