    02/12/2022 Future for Basilisk

    Future for Basilisk

    02/12/2022
    The SWGEmu Staff



    We have come to the point that we no longer see the need for Basilisk as we did before. Finalizer have taken over as our main test server. Today we have made an popup message in-game on Basilisk for the ones who remain there, but mostly for returning players who have had a break from the project.
    • Basilisk is no longer our primary test server
    • We are no longer pushing updates or changes to Basilisk
    • Basilisk character names will be reserverd until 03/18/2022


    Basilisk will eventually be taken down. Expect to hear more about that soonTM​.

    It was obvious this is where it was going when Finalizer launched, but I didn't think it would be this quick.

    How long before it's taken offline? I think I need to start making lots of archival videos.

    What about taking Bas offline 10 ears + 1 day after it was launched? That way we can say it lasted "over 10 years"?

    First character created on Basilisk was 06/11/2012 at 15:55:43. We will see. That would make me a liar though

    Nope, you'd be good by over a week!

    There is problems with having Basilisk going though. We will get more of the issues we had last week, where the disks for Finalizer got full. More people join the server so the issues will come again sooner than before. We would not have that issue if we didn't also run Basilisk. Basilisk also take human resources even though we are not updating it anymore. So, even though it would be a nice sentiment that we get 10 years and 1 day, we might not be able to do that.

    Good. Toss Basilisk into the trash. It has grown into a train wreck anyway. IMO Finalizer will be much better.
