A classic/vanilla World of Warcraft server with additional modifications.

While it looks like it has hope, it fails because there are no quest markers on the minimap, so I don't know where to find quests. I don't want to re-live that part of things.

• The website lets you register, but there's no motherfucking login feature listed.

• Blizzard: It launches with insane graphics, and shows the cutscene for the only time with that resolution.
• Blizzard: There is no functionality to change graphic options before logging in.

• Changing video options

  • Fucking bullshit.
• It auto-joins a guild for new players. Ugh. I guess that's a nice idea.
• Blizzard: There's this regular "plink" sound. Apparently it's the tips concept, and the exclamation point for them is pretty easy to miss.
• Blizzard: Is there no hotkey to interact with the target?
• There appears to be some sort of transmog system, but the icon / toast reward window for it seems to be cut off at the bottom of the screen. Maybe it was developed for the original low-resolution version of the game?
• Sometimes quest sounds happen twice.
• When talking Deputy Willem (Human starting zone), the quests don't have exclamation points or question marks; they're just yellow dots.

• Is there no hotkey to compare an item with what is worn?

  • Installed https://github.com/laytya/EQCompare-Vanilla

• Blizzard: It doesn't save my password; annoying.

Usage and troubleshooting ∞

Changing video options ∞

If you have a second monitor, then you may not be able to change resolution or change to windowed mode; instead the screen will go black.

1. Exit the game
2. Unplug the second monitor
3. Re-launch the game
4. Log in
5. Change the video options
6. Exit
7. Plug in the second monitor
8. Re-launch the game

9. Log in

• I think it's possible to manually edit WTF\Config.wtf to change:

SET gxResolution "1920x1080"
SET gxWindow "1"
SET gxMaximize "1"
