The efforts of the EQ2Emulator Project are to emulate the Everquest 2 experience as close as possible to the actual live game by Sony Online Entertainment. The project is "Open Alpha"; which means our server is nowhere near complete, but you can still get your hands on the source code, binaries and a sample database and begin developing your own custom world.

If you are looking to play on an EQ2Emulator Server, read our Player FAQ.

Current supported clients list can be found here - this changes (infrequently) so check it out before asking questions about supported clients.

There are two tools Quest Parser and Dialog Log Parser to make it easier and help aid in script development.
