Like many people that will find our server, 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 we are 4 months into the launch of Evolve. 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 didn't want to walk backwards towards the CU. I wanted to take things forward with re-implementing and rebuilding the multi-class system into the NGE and the Expertise System and creating the "Classless" Skill System we have now. These changes along with many quality of life improvements is something I hope really sets this server apart from many of the others.
