I missed something very cool here I think. ZomgDanyelle, do I understand this to mean we can now use the Underfoot client from Steam on Ez? If so I missed that bit of news, but very cool! I'll buy a copy asap if that is correct.
Thanks for the tip!
Underfoot will let you log in but it still has the following problems:
Last Update - July 11th 2010
Top Priority Work:
1. Buffs - Buff Icons now show correctly and the effects of them show on the client correctly until you zone. Still need to figure out how to make buff effects show after zoning (icons work still after zoning).
2. AAs - AAs don't display purchased AAs properly and aren't able to be purchased.
3. Zone Points - Zone points in zones with more than 1 zone point are broken. This seems to be a simple structure issue.
Medium Priority Work:
None ATM
Low Priority Work:
1. GM Speed - GM Speed doesn't seem to be working properly or at all.
Client Issues:
1. Drakkin Male Animations - The Steam download is missing the file dkm_anims.eqg file that controls Drakkin Male animations. This causes Male Drakkin to hover over the ground frozen sideways. This can be resolved by copying that file from a previous client (SoF or SoD) into the Underfoot installation folder.
