Early Access for the EverQuest® Underfoot launches on December 8, 2009 and the main launch is December 15, 2009 To help you remember some of the preparation steps here are some tips for getting ready for the launch.
Character Preparation
Logging Out
Give yourself plenty of time to log completely out of game before the servers go down. If you wait until the server boots you, a transaction, skill advancement, etc., may not be saved. Make sure you log out in a safe place. It's generally a good idea to log out in a city, the Plane of Knowledge or another zone that might be deemed safe.
Corpse Clearing
While the system will save your corpses, it's always a good idea to take care of any corpses you have in the world before a game update. If with the corpses changes recently made, you'll still want to make sure you don't have any pre-existing corpses.
User Interface
There shouldn't be too many changes to the UI from what we released for the Zone Preview but there may be some changes. If you run into problems, you'll want to switch to the default UI before logging your character in on Launch Day.
If you use a customized user interface (UI), it's a good idea to save a screenshot of your interface. Generally for larger updates, several user interface changes are made. You will need to update your customized interface before logging into game or you may experience problems. By taking a screenshot, if you are unable to get an update for your customized UI, at least you have a picture of what it looked like so you can try to get a new one to match it.
EQInterface - The largest and most comprehensive collection of User Interfaces. And the best source for User Interface discussions. If you downloaded your customized UI from this site and it is a common UI, you will generally find an updated version for it there on the day of the game update or shortly thereafter. Just be patient and give them enough time to get the changes made for them.
