SWG Emu Questions.

Well.. I know i flamed it a little while ago and im still not complete convinced that it will be possable to set up a SWG Emu Server... But Im Curious over a few things.

Questions:

- If you manage to set up the server Who and what will be running it? Will it be a Dedicated Host? Or will it be online for certain amounts of time?

- Considering each client will need the Servers Address and ports to be able to connect to it.. Will each user have to use Portwarding Porgrammes such as Hamachi? Considering 80% of Computer Internet set ups have Non-Static Ports.

- If the Server is fully set up and ready for people to log on.. If its released to the hole SWRP Habbo Community there will be rufly 200-300 people using it from various places on the earth, So a few of them are bound to have Extreamly Bad Ping which could cause server lag.. Is there going to be a system set up to deal with people with intence lag?

- If the codes actully do go public, Do you plan on customizing them to create a differnt story line... Or will it just be the Standard SWG Emu?

- Will the SOE Free trails be enough data to support the SWG Emu Client? Or will we actully have to buy the full versions in order to use Emu?

Any Way, Thats the Main ones i was wondering.. Im Extreamly hope full that the SWG Emu Developers do give the codes out, But i still cant find any evidence of that, Either way i certainly hope that a Private server will be set up and wish you good luck with it.

Online 24/7 and I'm going to be paying for a cluster of servers to run it dedicated.

The client will do all the work for you and the server will be static. There will also be an update server separately so if you run into any problems with connecting, whether it be a change in the server cluster itself or corrupt files, you'll automatically patch and update.

We're paying for a server that'll be powerful enough to withstand such a large amount of people. We'll be running it on a cluster server, meaning it won't just be running on one computer, it'll be running on several. If more people log in and there's bandwidth issues, if its possible to up the cost every month I will do so. It sounds bad here but I'll never go under the mark I'm at now but say if there's 300 people playing constantly and anything over that lags, I'll set a cap until I can make enough money to upgrade, possibly setting up a donate but of course that is completely optional. Bear in mind lag will not be a problem unless we suddenly have a crazy amount of players playing. By crazy, I mean hundreds.

I intend to change quite a few different things. Some of the thing I'm reluctant to talk about for the time being, and others are still in their infancy. The rest will take too long to explain but wherever there are changes, they'll be good ones that coincide with our community.

The SoE trial is the full version of the game complete with no key, so its highly likely you'll be able to use your trial version. If not, its easily patched up.

Basically, you'll be able to make an account by going to the website I host it from and registering. Once you've registered, you start up SWG and log in using your website's username and password.

Then you'll have a server selection screen as normal, but only one server will pop up. Ours.
