SWGEmu Big Update 11/21/2007

[Ter]

Awesome job guys, I am glad to see this other developers who have been urging for a chance, finally get one.

[_DM_]

:happy_cry:
That's awesome!

Great news, i think its a great idea, as long as it doesn't get out of hand, I trust all the devs and whoever else they bring aboard to carry tis project

[Theoderean]

Btw you can't see this on the front page, probs be good if you could..

Quick note: Code submissions will be handled through a much more organized system (such as trac). We'll be setting up, and facilitating source control for submissions.

Hmm, was hoping that crafting were done :P

Does this mean all the stuff thats on the former updates will be hitting the tc soon?

I hate to kill the joy, and I have a great deal of faith in the development team, but we have went down this road before, and it ended badly.


I'm curious as to how the devs see this as different than the fiasco that was taking core 1 open source.


Do they intend to keep it partially open source for the remainder of the project, or is this just essentially a recruiting drive to see what members of the community are competent coders? (to be honest, I hope it's the latter)

For one thing the engine will be closed which s a good idea. This will be similar to what Steam has done. Built an engine that they maintain and then say "ok here's the functions and calls available, have fun." Granted that all are working toward one goal instead of hundreds of projects. Plus they have the veto power on all code. I look forward to helping code.

Great News!

Awesome Update Thanks for all your hard work devs, I dont know where you get your patients from, I woulda quit by now.

[Ekaika]

Agree with other poster, a little concerned about going this road again. BUT tbh from what I can tell things have slowed a bit and some of the current challenges need a few more sets of eyes looking at them. I don't blame you guys for keeping some of it private, I hope that doesn't interfere with the progress of new code.

Interest hasn't waned, I don't think. It's just obvious that progress has slowed, so people have nothing to talk about.

I remember there were 1 or 2 people that seemed genuinely interested with talent. Hope they get this message.

That's Just Awesome :3

[Galaborn]

i hope it will speed up the project
