This is probably not your typical first post that you see for a Project Launch. This image above was created back in 2008 on the Lowca forums by a fellow community member when my first son was born. Now all these years later I have been able to play this same game with him on private servers like this one I am working on now. Like many people that will find this page, Star Wars Galaxies has been apart of my life since 2003. The reason I first started taking programming classes all those years ago was because I had a dream to one day work on SWG as a developer. Sadly the official game shut down before I ever completed my college degree.
For the last many years I have tried out several of the SWG Communities that have emerged since the original leak of the source code. As someone with a programming background, any time I play on one of these servers I always have ideas creep up on me about what I would do different. I have been back and forth on launching my own project for the last 3 years. I have even been a member of the SWG Source Discord and doing open source releases here and there for small modifications.
Ultimately, here I am, finally taking that leap of faith. Many of the changes I have made and systems I have designed don't fit in with an existing projects because some of what I am doing is a radically different approach. SWG: Restoration may be the closest thing, but I don't want to walk backwards towards the CU. I want to take things forward with re-implementing and rebuilding the multi-class system into the NGE and the Expertise System while also staying at the level 90 balance that all the current content was designed for. These changes along with many quality of life improvements is something I hope really sets this server apart from many of the others.
