Max, are you a millionaire yet? We are all hoping so. I also can't recall what anniversary EUO is going on. Can't be getting close to 20 is it?

euo just turned 14 .... that is 14 years since being switched on and staying on

euo was actually started on july 30, 1998, so there's probably code there that is nearly 19 years old. Actually there of course is code there older than that. I pinched the trace (debug printing) code from work, and the socket code I started in 1997 I think. That isn't counting Allegro which is ancient, but I didn't write that (or steal it from work).

also here is the oldest post about euo by anyone I can find, from May 2003
viewtopic.php?t=88
(ignore the last 2 posts from 2006 saying I wasn't working on EUO anymore X-D)

Hello,am new here started plaing like 2 days ago,i was playing on PD server when my account got banned,i didnt do nothing wrong and i got no tell or email saying or giving eny warning for the baning,so can admin or someone help me out to find why i got banned?

The last things i was doing before i got banned was that i got a silver coin for finishing a quest then i went to silver coin merchant to buy a helm,soon as i bought it i got dcd,then i reloged and i trayed buy that helm again and i got dcd again and then i trayed one more time and then i got banned,so could that be somehow reason sistem banned me?

I honestly thought the autobanner was disabled. Whats your connection speed? Must've hic-up'd trying to access a merchant multiple times. Used to just get inventory sync errors.

Well my download speed is 2.5 mb/s,but i think the issue was that the game didnt allowe me to buy helmet from silver trader with silver coin,cas soon as i bought him it booted me out of game.

Re: mythic?

Post by stegos »

Is there an explanation in the manual about mythic equipment? What is it, what good is it, how to craft it, what the heck a facilitator is, etc.?

These forum posts seem informative. Maybe I just need more handholding.

Ha! :-) I was thinking the exact same thing - that it sounds complex and I don't understand it.

How about in-game guides? Like mythic quests? Or mythic tomes or books? Or a permanent mythic advisor NPC that acts like the scavenger hunt NPC? Or a scroll that summons a portable mythic advisor? ;-)

Lemme know if I can help in some way. I'm bound to understand mythicism after that.

Hmm... if I ever do understand it. Well, maybe I can get started whether I understand it or not, and place a warning at the top saying the documentation is likely be incomplete and subject to change. Where in the manual would be a good place for the entry point?

Cool, thanks! Guess I'll see about putting all that into the manual. Then you can add pics. :)

Oh wait, I need some help:
1. How do I create a login account for the manual/wiki. :?
2. When I try to create an Enigmatic Bauble the game says copper while the guide says gold.
