It seems like a lot of people like the previous post about EQ3 and what I would like to see out of it. (It even got mentioned on the EQ2 site!)
That being said, I apologize for the lack of consistent posting. I had been busy with my graduate courses late last semester and then was traveling over break.
I should be back in the EQ2 posting groove now…
The major thing that I am working on now is a comprehensive guide to getting Everquest Two working in Linux. I have seen several posts on Cedega’s website, the EQ2 players website, Crossover games support site, and also on the wineHQ site. I plan to merge all of the different tips and make one walk through that will get you up and running.
I gave crossover and wine a shot the past couple of days, and of course nothing worked immediately – what else can you expect? Hopefully over the next week or so I will have things working stablely and be able to help others get things working…I will keep you posted.
To give you an idea of my rig:
P4 3.0
1.5 GB RAM
7800GT video card
USB Logitech Headset

I plan on writing the guide for Ubuntu Linux since that seems to be the most popular for the user base. I will explore getting EQ2 to run consistently as well as getting voice chat to work well.
I will keep you posted – keep checking back for updates!

If you do put together a guide, please feel free to put it under the Tips & Tricks section of the EQ3 listing on our Compatibility Database. That would be a useful thing to have up there.

Ok. I will be sure to do that. The only major piece I have left is getting the voice chat to work – configuring the USB headset correctly is difficult.
