A few questions for you all....

[Makar40]

Ok guys, Im trying to get a handle on things so that when I get set back up, Ill be ready to GO! I can usually only check this site on my phone for now, which means its hard for me to read a lot and I also cannot post on it. Sometimes I have access to my cousins computer and she lets me use it to do my thing. Being that I really cant download the source or even the VG client and check things out for myself, I want to ask some questions to alleviate my boredom and know whats up


I realize that core functionality and stabilization is being worked on at this point. But what things can be done so far? My understanding is we can login, create a character and chat. I know the world will be empty. Can we move around the world from chunk to chunk WITHOUT rifting? Can I run from say Tursh to Trengal Keep and then from there to say Leth Nurae or Veskals Exchange?

Also, if so, will VG's music play in the appropriate places? Like when I go to Leth or say Khal, will the client play the music that those places normally would play? To me VG had some of the most beautiful environment graphics and its music was bar NONE! If all that this emu ends up accomplishing in the end, is allowing us to run around the world and hear its music, that would allow Telon to live on forever lol.

Is there any work being done yet on tools? Such as for placing spawns, re-adding in quests, placing npc's, ect. Im sure the functionality for content creation is still being worked out at this early stage, but being that Im so limited atm by having to use my phone to get on here, I can yet get the source or log on and see for myself, so I must resort to asking dumb-ass questions here lol. So I apologize in advance if I start making a bunch of topics about things that you all can easily learn for yourself.

Yes to all 3 of your questions, actually.

The world is actually not empty. We have a rudimentary spawn system in place to test the content collected by our awesome team of collectors. So far, everything looks perfect. Hope to see you in the world soon, I think you will be impressed with our emulated Telon.

Wow nice guys. You guys are making amazingly fast progress. I cant wait. I just found the project manager lol. Wish my phone let me actually see everything.

I think you'll be pleasantly surprised by the progress being made. So much done, so much left to do...

One thing definitely missing though is Slappy the Cool!

Does the project manager show how much of the game was collected before sunset? If not, do we know how much was collected versus how much was in the game to collect? You know, as far as say items, mobs, quests, adventuring, diplo, crafting,, all the diplo levers, whatever. Do we know how much of that was captured and how much was lost with the game going offline for good?
