Yup, I know about this emu, but I never tried it. It kinda scares me to have to "alter" the files of my swg directory (I think you have to use your swg files or maybe make a copy of your whole directory, which will take quite some room hehe). Besides, I have an "error 403" here at work (access forbidden). And since I only have time to read the doc here at work...

Yea you have to copy your swg directory and after downloading the emu launcher you have to configure it to read from the copied destination. I tried it out. And being that i started playing swg after the nge came out...i find the pre-nge emulator a little overwhelming. Not sure what to do where to go and all that .

Don't know why I haven't tried it out. Obiat, how many people are on the servers? I can help you out a bit, but I only played 2 months of Combat Upgrade, so got no idea how the original game was.

Making a seperate folder for it now, and downloading the files I need. Bit of a bugger that CH is in lvl 1 testing, but Pikeman and Teras Kasi looks almost good to go, as well as many other professions.

I found a launchpad variant. Very easy to install. Just a simple .exe. Will find a link, some day...

Fighting Rock Mites in this game is more heroic than fighting Exar Kun. Srsly. Woot, Novice Brawler Trandoshan ftw! Soon got unarmed street Fighting now!

How stable is the game? Are there many people playing? would be interesting to see things like the old combat queue. watch out for knock down / dizzy or eye shots from bh's

So far its pretty stable, its still in tst stage though so the more stress on the servers the better. I believe its in the same format as when the game was 1st released in 2003.

They're trying to recreate it as it was just before CU hit. Still lacking a few things, such as CH and BM and those profs ( ). But overall it's good. It also has some problems like spawns looking a bit bugged. They're also bug-fixing atm so they take the server down quite often. The server itself looks real nice, though. It's apparently a commercial-grade server, and I don't lag on it despite the fact that its hosted in Chicago I believe. I had to abandon my Ishoss character, as his ability to learn Skills from other players bugged. Might have been fixed after a server-reset, though. Instead I got a Wookiee ( :() Pikeman named Lu.. Lupo.. Errr, Lupowari or something. Let's just say: If you see a Wookiee, with a pike, outside Coronet, with a name which starts with a L, and got a brown fur... Odds are its me
