I got a system message there's a new version of the Launchpad but I don't see any note in the Forum.
What is it? An April 1 Fool?

Have a curious qyestion about this, because it has me cunfused.

SWGEmu has joined with Daybreak Games Company LLC, which used to be Sony Online Entertainment LLC... i get that part. My question is this: If Sony Online owned SWG to begin with, which means Daybreak now owns the copyright for it, why would they join with a group running a reverse engineered version of a game they already own?

just curious is all.

thanks

Believe it or not Smedley is a man of his word. Granted he could have done this a decade ago, but still...


if someone can write a SWG server emulator that's any good please apply for a job here because you have to be pretty damn good. You also better be able to know SQL pretty well and have an oracle database and a ton of other important stuff. This emulator stuff is nothing more than a hobby for some really smart people. You don't seriously think we're worried about this do you (and I mean that in a very positive way btw)? I take it as the ultimate compliment. Now, if some genius ever actually pulled it off.. well that would be another matter entirely. In EverQuest a couple of really smart guys made something called ShowEQ which basically showed off a bunch of stuff we didn't intend for players to see. I ended up hiring the key developer of that program. He's a really smart programmer named Roy Eltham. He actually broke our encryption. He's still here.

Nope, Smedley will likely chain you to a chair in a small cubicle at their offices and demand that you code all day long with a bullwhip in his hands.

But I could be wrong on that as he may have something other than a bullwhip.

Other wise

Three more options

One is that daybreak are april fooling you guys,Your April Fooling us Or its blood real,

I hope it is real cos i've always said it would happen you'd put all the hard work in and the company would see that and then sign a contract with ya cos they cant risk the biggest game coming back and them not earning it or printing a name on it.

If it is april fools then i really will not be happy and sue you for all you have for misleading me thank you.

Will the current coders continue to work on the code? I am sure we all have lots of questions and hope you will consider a sit down with the community.

even funner no replys now lol but i did find this

DayBreak release Star Wars Galaxies' Source Code!
Releasing this source code would bring back the SWG community together as it once was to relieve the greatest MMO of all time.

Raven Studios did it with the Jedi Knight games so you should too!

This could mean so much to the gaming community and the amazing EMU developers.

Thank you Daybreak/SOE.

Best 4/1 joke ever ... so pissed...

So basically, no need to donate anymore, we have corporate sponsorship :bonk:

I'm surprised we would elude much less make a logo considering the measures we take to not find ourselves in litigation. (that was a stab at Vlada :p)

Not certain what this is supposed to mean. I suspect 'elude' does not mean what the poster thinks it means or it was run through an inadequate translator.

Congratulations!

You have finally reached the end of the internet!
There's nothing more to see, no more links to visit.
You've done it all.
This is the very last page on the very last server at the very far end of the internet.

You should now turn off your computer and go do something useful with the rest of your life. *

Suggestions:
Read a book
Do some public service
Personally interact with your neighbors that you've probably only met online
Plant a tree
Introduce yourself to those other people who live at your house (your family).
* Please don't forget to turn off the lights on your way out.

In order to save time, we will now start downloading the internet to your local drive.

Sorry everyone. Can't help it. Many Englich teachers and professors in my family. :/ I remeber at the age of 12 being drilled on spelling and proper usage on autombile trips. Sometimes modern usage simply escapes me comletely although I am getting somewhat accustome to the shortend texting speak using u, ur and the like.

Especially since a lot of the Star Wars stuff has been sold to ****** anyway and EA holds some licensing. Releasing a new, sommercial version of SWG would make a lot of lawyers wealthy.

Oh was thinking about it as well, EA will run SWGemu now, now this is something that makes me go full loney, losing 2nd star wars game to EA >.> Only this time Luke Skywalker will be raid boss instead of Revan...

Oh by the way, Vlada, you want tech support in Ukraine, you call me :p

Well today minishark has to delete his account, I made a bet with him that his was just a april fools joke, but he insisted for hours in general chat that it was real. He further explained that he did over 4 hours of "research" and without a doubt the facts of the research revealed it to be true.

I'm trying to connect all of this together, here's what I've come up with.

A) This is a very cruel April Fool's Joke because I spent the last day or so jumping in excitement, the first MMO and best MMO I'd ever played and miss so much was finally going to be an official thing again.
B) - EVEN WORSE the devil who killed said MMO Mr. John Smedley that f***tard, is taking the reigns from SWGEmu again????

I am praying this is all a massively well-planned April Fool's Joke now... I would rather donate all my life savings to another World of Warcraft spin-off like so many MMO's out there, than see Mr. Smedley attempt SWG again.

And yes even if it's true, I know we will likely get SWG back to the way it was, but it's the principle of the matter. :)!
