Happy New Year 2016!

From all of us at the VGOEmulator.net Project, we wish everyone a happy and prosperous new year in 2016!


For us, our goals are simple: Continue to revive this much loved and beautiful game for players to enjoy for years to come. I cannot promise the game will be completed this year, as there is a virtual ton of work to be done yet and our team is still very small for the tasks ahead. What I can promise is a steady flow of game features and content for players to try out and relive the glory days of Vanguard; having a world to log into at all is definitely better than only having screenshots and YouTube videos

This year we have 2 goals - ones I am giving the teams the whole year to sort out:
  • [*:2rrp3hd1]Implement all spheres to at least a playable state (Adventure, Crafting, Diplomacy)[/*:m:2rrp3hd1]
    [*:2rrp3hd1]Build playable content emulating the live game for all original starter areas as well as Isle of Dawn[/*:m:2rrp3hd1][/list:o:2rrp3hd1]

    This may not sound like a lot, but if it were easy, you'd all be volunteering to help, right? Content building is easy, but the most tedious and where we need the most help. I continually get offers from people willing to help, but as soon as we set them up, they disappear. That's not helping. Staying focused, getting the job done, that's helping. If you're interested, get in touch with a [url=memberlist.php?mode=group&g=17:2rrp3hd1][b:2rrp3hd1][color=#BF00BF:2rrp3hd1]Content Designer[/color:2rrp3hd1][/b:2rrp3hd1][/url:2rrp3hd1] today - because:

    Starting >today<, we are building this world. The final data has been analyzed and looks good. NPCs and Objects are being placed in the world, encounters are being built and interactive scripting is being written. Once we have a fair amount of work done on our development server, we'll push the content to New Telon for players to begin testing - which will hopefully be by the end of Jan 2016.

    Until then, players can continue to enjoy the game content we have provided, the sample questing and diplomacy on the Isle of Dawn, and report any [b:2rrp3hd1][color=#FF0000:2rrp3hd1]*visual*[/color:2rrp3hd1][/b:2rrp3hd1] anomalies with the NPC or Object data we have placed - as that is a sample of what's to come (no floating heads, hopefully).


    Also, non-developers, if you have not done so already, be sure you register at [url=http://vgoplayers.com/community/:2rrp3hd1]VGOPlayers.com Forums[/url:2rrp3hd1] soon. If you wish to help the project but cannot develop or build the world, this is the best way you can help - by rebuilding up the player community.


    Thank you all once again for your continued support. Here's to a successful 2016 for us all!

I might get in touch with one of those content designers soon and see if there is anything I can do to help. Its exciting to see that progress is being made on this project to begin with. VG was the "obscure of the obscure" when it was still live and to see the dedication after the official servers are gone makes me quite happy.

When the game was getting shut down "forever" I was pretty pissed about that, escpially because that entire year sucked so far for me. Having a game world to at least log back into and explore visually was better than nothing but now dreams of actually questing and fighting mobs again in this world are pretty exciting.

I have no idea what being a content designer entails.. Is that something my husband and/or I could be talked through? If so, email me at wheema@icloud.com & we'll do whatever we can to help.
