Sticky: SWG's First FEATURE LENGTH Movie! [Post A Comment](1 comment) - Print News | Mail News Decro Neektoo, of Igneous Neo Films, has produced the first part in a three part, feature length movie series called Deception of the Jedi. Ever wonder how things looked from the Empire's point of view? The story has finally been told! We have an interview with Decro, as well as the movie itself!
Currently, this is a Vault EXCLUSIVE.. it's a big download, but WELL worth the wait.
If you are experiencing a crash to desktop upon logging in to Star Wars Galaxies please delete the file named sku3_client.toc from your SWG folder and restart the game.
Regarding Bunker's: Currently, there are a significant number of reports regarding the new Bunker House that is available as a reward for purchasing the Trials of Obi-Wan Expansion. It appears that characters are forgetting to place maintenance into the structure prior to redeeding the structure, and as such when a redeed attempt is made, the structure is being destroyed because the redeed fees are unable to be paid. Please remember that while regular housing maintenance fees are currently turned off at the moment, the fees for redeeding a structure are still enabled, and must be paid if you wish to reclaim the structure deed instead of destroy it.
If you have already inadvertently destroyed the house, please submit an in-game ticket, and we will offer a ONE TIME ONLY restoration of the reward as soon as we can. Please note that anyone found attempting to defraud Customer Service by submitting false claims of a destroyed bunker house will receive account disciplinary action.
* Fixed issue that prevented mission terminals on Lok from giving Destroy missions. * Fixed issue that could cause a mission terminal to list only a single Delivery mission. * Fixed an issue where some players homes were blocked by static objects.
Due to a high concentration of spawns at the Zero Zero (0,0) point of Tatooine on all servers, it is advised not to zone or run to that area. Any character that ends up at 0,0 may become stuck until the servers go through their maintenance cycle tomorrow (European servers tonight during your maintenance).
Last night the Development team participated in a Stratics House of Commons chat. The main topic of discussion was Star Wars Galaxies: Trials of Obi-Wan (TOW).
Those of you that saw Star Wars: Episode III will remember the climactic battle on planet Mustafar between Obi-Wan and Anakin Skywalker. This is the focus of the expansion. Not only is this planet steeped in Star Wars lore, but it also gives the team an excuse to add on some interesting new graphical tweaks (the game still looks quite good anyway) to show off the fiery nature of the planet.. Not only will players see their first windows in buildings (which have been dutifully reconstructed from the movie) that allow them to see down into other areas and watch other players battle, but heat shimmers and new lava flow behavior make the world come alive.

Headlines:
Squad Leader enhancements: Publish 24 will be bringing you significant changes and enhancements to the Squad Leader profession. The goal of these enhancements is to maintain the essence of the Squad Leader skills, leadership and group enhancement, while making the profession more robust and entertaining to play.
Profession Commando: As some of you may know, Helios has been working with Keldarin and JFreeman to get the community's input on some of the requested commando changes. Today, we have some very exciting update notes for you so we thought we'd call these changes out to your attention.
AI Specials: We are improving the variety of attacks available to NPCs in SWG. We have heard feedback from players, asking for more variety and strategy in NPC behaviors (for instance, having Dark Jedi and Night Sisters use force powers), and agree with that feedback 100%. NPCs that use appropriate tactics and strategy will make the combat experience in SWG the best it has ever been.
Combat - Movement Buffs and Snares Stack: Changes to the way movement buffs and snares stack in combat.
Description: The undisputed king of the Mustafarian creatures, the sher kar is the scorpion-like beast inhabiting the deepest part of the Tulrus Nesting Grounds (the tulrus is the sher kar�s prey of choice). Mustafarian lore holds that no one who has dared entered the sher kar�s lair has returned. Will you be the first to slay the mighty sher kar and live to tell about it?
Description: The xandank is one of Mustafar�s most dangerous predators. Also often referred to as the �crustacean cat� due to its protective outer shell, the xandank is a pack hunter that often stalks its prey for long periods before finally ambushing and striking. Xandank can most-often be found in the Mustafarian area known as Berken�s Flow. Beware � the xandank is no ordinary feline.
Description: Beginning its life as a parasite within a host body, the jundak eventually can grow to immense size, but only after it has burst-forth from its host during its adolescent stage. Fortunately for other Mustafarian creatures, inhabitants, and travelers, the jundak are unable to survive outside of central Mustafar.
Description: Much like the xandank of Mustafar, the blistmok is a vicious pack hunter often found groups consisting of up to ten others. Blistmok are easily recognized by their reptilian raptor-like appearance. As for where to find them, blistmok have been known to frequent several areas of Mustafar, including the Burning Plains and the Smoking Forest.
On October 13, 2005 at 4:00 AM PDT all servers will be taken out of service for maintenance and a hotfix update. All servers are expected to return to service by 9:00 AM PDT. We apologize for this inconvenience and appreciate your patience.
