=== Skimpifying armor: ===
=== Picking a Class ===
I've modified a lot of armor textures to skimpify the armor. Said textures can be located here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1xeyftmaX3iLbGyYpuLFlzCxxpqz1msBP/view
Before playing, you'll have to create a character. There's a lot of races and classes to pick from. I'd start by checking out the [[:Category:Classes|Classes]] category.
 
Just download it and unzip into your EQ directory, overwriting existing files.
