The Super Entity Game Server (SEGS) project, which readers will recall is an attempt to rewrite the code for City of Heroes to connect with game assets players already own (and thus skirt any legal trouble with NCSoft’s EULA), has made a fresh step closer to its projected late winter alpha release with the launch of a pre-alpha version of the SEGS Engine.
The engine is open source and free to download, so those with the tech knowledge to play around with it can now do so. Regular players won’t get much out of the current version of the engine just yet, but in any event, the developers of the project are very clearly making progress. An alpha is still expected by the end of the year.
