I've been searching for a cleaned-up version of a specific EQ image for some time. It's a symbol found in Neriak (and a few other places) as seen here:
Summoning Circle:
Bunny Rabbit:
I'd like to find the whole "summoning circle" deal if it's out there, but just the "bunny rabbit" in the middle would also suffice. I've tried taking in-game screenshots but as you can see, it's badly pixelated because these are textures from 1999.
Quick edit: the one below is close to ideal, except for the background texture and pixelation. Think a clip-art version of this:
Do you have a copy of Everquest on your computer? I'd imagine the file for the symbol is somewhere in there. I could log in and take a screenshot for you but I'm not entirely sure how to avoid the pixelation/background texture issue
Could you log into EQ and turn off textures? The video settings in EQ are quite extensive, and I'm pretty sure you can turn off most textures in-game. It's in options, in the video tab. Past that, I don't really remember as I'm not at home and can't check.
Bowen with the win. It needs some tweaking but in black and white even my meager MS Paint skills can pick it up from here.
@Wezoin I didn't think of that, I do have an old-school copy of EQ1 for reasons that I don't think I'm allowed to discuss because of the new board rules. I might be able to get at the source texture... it's probably something ridiculous like 128x128
If the result of this search comes to fruition I'll be sure to post it here!
It took some extra Googling around for me to remember all the crazy theories about EQ lore
There was one site, First Fist of Light I think it was called, that deciphered just about any in-game symbol, painting, text, or anything really to try and tie things together.
Maybe it was made official long after I stopped playing but that symbol was speculated to be Veeshan.
well i did it again. i ran over to commons west side (the
scary side) to try to hunt some things
anyway im running around getting losk and i see this guy named
dervish walking slow
so i run up to him and hail him and he ignores me but im used
to that here in commons west. so he keeps walking an i keep
hailing him but still getting ignored
so im like 'dude i was going to help you and tell you how to
turn on run so you can get
places faster but now i wont, haha'
and he STILL ignores me.
so i say 'dude you think your tough but i fought 4 lvl 59s
yesterday and lived'
well now im mad cause hes ignoring me and keeps walking but i
see hes wearing no gear and im going to teach him a lesson
so i attack him and i cant hit him that hard but he sure is
beating me up fast and suddenly like 10 of his friends all run
out to help him
but check this out. suddenly i see their exploiting cause ALL
OF THEM ARE NAEMED THE SAME THING
so im shouting 'dervish your a cheater you expoiter!!'
and now im almost dead and suddenly im at full health and i
turn around and its this elf guy behind me and he says 'need
some help?'
finally someones talking to me so i tell him that he can run
faster by clicking the "WALK" button at the bottom of the
screen.
and hes like 'huh?'
and i said 'i tried to tell dervish but that punk wouldn't
listen'
well wouldnt you believe it the elf guy starts to do speels on
me too, just like the meen ppl from yesterday
and elfguy says 'you better run'
and i say 'im not scared of you'
and he says 'huh?'
and i say 'im a lvl 5 monk, haha, whats up now? YOU better run'
and he just stands there
and then he says 'n00b' and leaves.
and i shout at him WTF is a n00b im a MONK ARE YOU DEAF!!>??
and this dervish guys is beating me up bad now that elf guy
left so i run and and im faster and dervish is following me
with his band of cheaters. well i see another group killing
some stuff, so i run over there and say 'hey wanna help me
kill some exploiters?'
and then dervish run up to me with his dirty no good friends
and kills me quick
so i died come back in freeport east and suddenly im getting
all these tells
sakan tells you 'dude thanks for the train, n00b'
OMG WTF???
so im like 'sakan wtf are you dumb this is fantasy, no trains
in EQ'
then..
critol tells me 'you are a total n00b dude'
WTF??
so now im wondering if n00b is like a nice name for a monk, or
something cause i hear it alot.
anyway im staying awayt frum common west side forever unless
