Publish 9: Secrets of the Force, Redux

[nee2earth]

Special thanks to nee2earth for helping with the swg pet system, he and his team made sure the pets are so true to the original game.

You're welcome, although technically i'm just a minor grunt amongst the major Team.

(The only team that's truly "mine" is the 100's of Nova alts i've created/deleted over the years and my multiple personalities that somehow keep my QA brain sane...sorta )


----------------

Tested the bugged destroy house quests.

Venthan Chassu (Vereni Island): Still broken.

Lethan Bludder (Talus Imp Outpost): Fixed.

CX-425 (Massasi Temple): Still broken.

uhhh the fix not only isn't on Basilisk yet, but also hasn't even been server-restarted to TCNova yet.

---
UPDATE: Nova restarted but unfortunately during my re-tests, the same issue persisted (so it'll have to be fixed again) .

I've been away for awhile...looks like it's time to get back into SWG again.

Glad to see more progress being made still, hopefully sometime soon the game will be ready!

Any news on Suncrusher yet?

Any news on Suncrusher yet?

yes

[irtehbom]

And what is it?

[Lolindir]

That the team for that server have all the info you need... The team have just not yet been put together

[irtehbom]

So, is Suncrusher still planned or?

So, is Suncrusher still planned or?

We know that its gonna happen, at some point... and that its probably going to be called Suncrusher. But that's about it.

[irtehbom]

So you guys aren't working towards any deadlines? I'm sure Suncrusher was announced years ago? Is it best to just join a private server then?

Also, in terms of your publishes, are they inline with Sony's, are you guys going for 14.1?

[Vlada]

If you go by that announcement from years ago, Suncrusher has been up and running since December 2009.

Because of that and a few similarly silly announcements as that one, we adopted an "Absolutely no ETA ever" policy, so you will find no deadlines here.

Also our publishes have nothing to do with SOE publishes.

P.S. All Pre-CU play servers are using our code, so as long as our code is incomplete theirs is too.

[irtehbom]

Whilst private servers are using your code, there's no threat of wipes which Batalisk desperately needs.

I played Batalisk at launch for a while, it was fun until people started exploiting the many bugs that resided back then. Ultimately it broke the economy and PVP.

I know you guys have some hatred towards anybody who asks for an ETA or any kind of idea of launch but I'm sure lots of the community are eager to know. Is there a final publish? Are you inline with Sony's patches?

Surely apart from JTL, the game looks and feels almost complete!?

Our main goal is to emulate 14.1. It'll take as many publishes as we need to get there.

here is a link to our roadmap document to see what we're working on and still need to do: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1...DtlsmCAZprnX6w

Deadlines are evil and we don't use them

[irtehbom]

So how far away are you?
