DirectX 9
-------------------------
-We have added more detail to the gamma correction slider, which means you may need to adjust your gamma settings which are located under video options
-All zones will temporarily have the same sky while we refine DirectX 9 functionality.
-Corpses should now be easier to target.
-We have added a new command, /rewind, which should free your character if they become stuck in geometry.
-There are now independent window resolutions for full screen and windowed mode.



Stormhammer
--------------------------
If you are a Legends subscriber you can visit the Lost Pyramid of Galuuk Korr. This midlevel adventure zone will allow you to explore a monument from the lost elvish city of Takish Hiz!

Now you must find what was left beneath the sands. Good luck.


Screenshots
--------------------------
-Screenshots will now save to a "Screenshot" folder in your EQ directory
-You can now change the format your screenshots are saved in by adding the "ScreenshotType=" line in your eqclient.ini file, which is in your EverQuest directory.

Und ploetzlich erkennt EQ statt ner GForce 5700 ne GForce 5900 ... wenn das mal gut geht ...

[Chili]

Wenn du wie ich eine 5900XT hast, ists doch ok

[Ghanur]

Patch-Ende auf 20:00 verlegt - es ist eher mit später zu rechnen

Wird die Amerikaner freuen, viele Mobs sind wieder in deren Spielzeit gelandet.

[Frexx]

Jo, wenn auf was verlass ist, dann verlängerte Patches, und mal sehen was das wieder für ein Chaos gibt mit den tiefgreifenden Änderungen

[Aaryn]

Is zwar nett das EQ die ATI Treiber vorschlägt
Aber ich bleib doch lieber bei den Omegatreiberversion vom Catalyst

[Guddy]

was isn Uqua und Ikkinz ??

[Pullox]

Das sind höhere GoD Zonen.

MfG

[Frexx]

Patch verlängert bis 21.30 Uhr.
