Well it will kindof be a mix of both. A lot of the old places that everyone remembered from live Kashyyyk will be returning (such as a form of Kachiro, the great tree, Trandoshan Slaver Camp and the slaver compound, and also the Myyndrill caverns when Davin fixes it up)... But there will be plenty of new secrets to be discovered!


EDIT:

Also I forgot to mention, special thanks to Synter we were able to get Waypoints working.

[KroniK]

Sweet. Thanks for the new update.

[mazarill]

[Calous]

It needs a serious amount of work, even if it was sorted out - how do we go about implementing it? Is it even known what planet it's supposed to be? (I assume there isn't a planet called Cinco City ).

Personally, I think the time is better spent on getting Taanab and Kashyyyk to a very high standard, something really worth visiting.

Back to this, I've redone a map with both of them now, tried to get the positioning of the planets roughly right based off this map.

Kool map in that link. But if I remeber correctly Kashyyyk was in between Dath and Dant above where Talus is.

Yeah you're correct... However me and Synter were talking and we agreed that even though that's where Kash was in live's map, in the SW universe map Kashyyyk is under taanab, so we figured we'd put it there.

Will this be on TC anytime soon?

It is mostly complete, we need to identify the missing models first, then create/copy replacements for them, fix terrain with bad textures, and there you go, a usabled planet, after that you need to find which planet it would fit best as in lore. I remember someone found a planet it could be once...But i forgot what planet they chose.

Anyway still KUDOS for Taanab and Kashykk

[Sytner]

Yeah, every other planet pretty much follows that map, I don't really see any logic in where SOE positioned Kashyyyk on live. It could be changed though..

[KroniK]

O ok thats kool. I like that better now that I know the reason for it. Great work once again.

[MikeCool]

Almost forgot about this update, nice job guys!

Keep it up.

[evilscribble]

It will be year 2015 by the time this emulator is done. New and better games will be out by then!
