NOTE: This page is a work in progress. The goal is to get a set of step-by-step instructions that cover everything a new player on Project 1999 needs. Currently only a skeleton exists, and wiki pages for things like how to patch the client or how to create an EQ Emulator need to be added.

Welcome

Welcome to Project 1999, the Internet's most successful emulated EverQuest server (and also the only emulated server to faithfully limit itself to only the Kunark and Velious expansions). Getting started is easy, and this page will walk you through the process.

Steps to Get Playing

To get started playing on Project 1999 you should follow these steps:

  1. Acquire the "Titanium" EverQuest Client - This must be the Titanium client and not any other version of EverQuest. This version is not available for purchase anymore, but the link provides information on how to acquire it.
  2. Install the Titanium Client
  3. Patch Your Client
  4. Read (or at the very least skim) the
    • NOTE: They are similar to, but also different from the live Play Nice Policies. After all, this isn't a paid product, it's a player-run server staffed entirely by nice people who volunteer their time to help you and players like you.
  5. Coming Soon: Start EQ properly (ie. DO NOT run it directly, run eqgame.exe patchme)
  6. Create a forum and EQ Emulator/Login Server account
  7. Select the appropriate server (Project 1999: Blue)
  8. Create your character and then start playing!

The front page of the wiki contains links to many various useful pages, so it is recommended that you start there. You should read or at least skim on the class page for whichever class you plan to play, or if you're not sure which class you want, read several.

You'll also want to explore the various Player Guides. If you're completely new to EverQuest you will likely find the Newbie Guide to be especially helpful.

There are also guides for many of the starting cities. These will tell you where important NPCs (eg, the banker)
