News - Server Maintenance April 25th

[MVP]

All EverQuest Live Servers will be brought offline on Tuesday, April 25th, 2017 at 8:00 AM Pacific* for maintenance to address a zone crashing issue. Servers will be unavailable for approximately 3 hours.

According to RadarX this downtime will also fix the server transfer issue.

Absolutely no issues during the downtime

Great,

Hopefully no client change.... if so.. I'll make the changes to notify community compile is down/remove download links via widgets.

Back to my coffee and KissAssist support tickets. ( yawn ).

Unfortunately appears to be a patch.

Guildhall anchors: We have published a speculative fix. So it will transport you to your guild hall or somewhere else ? lol

It at least appears a new compile is needed .

Is the patch client/server side, or just server? ie.. will my mq2 be hosed?

Appears to be client side and mq2 is hosed.

Aye, it is down. I too got the message saying the date and times are off. No big deal this just means it is time to work more TS is all, for me.

 

[Cupcake]

Unable to do pachme either... =(

 

[TreeHuginDruid]

Compile is down. Home page reflects this.. and there is a global announcement i posted for every forum group.

We will get it back up and running in our usual speedy manner.

Until then... go get some healthy vitamin D by going outside in the sunlight.
I know we are all partial vampires locked away in our computer rooms dreading the garish light of day.

But in this case you got that suggestion or go play another game until the compile is fixed.. LOL

 

[Frienziedkilla]

I hope your happy I went outside as you said and got 3rd degree burns ROFL thanks for the update

Outside??? sunlight?? what are these things you speak of?

 

[Nydus]

All rain doom and gloom here. Grrr Patch Day

 

[Sym]

This is one part I didn't miss. I'm so out of practice finding offsets and I'm not sure some of them even work anymore.

 

[TreeHuginDruid]

Well ... Undertaker has the maintenance code already available .. although it does say:
24 Apr 2017 by The Undertaker
Maintenance Update

So guess he is a day behind in his calendar .. lol

Waiting on patch code to be compiled / tested .. before we release Very Vanilla.
