Hey folks. I've been porting a part of Lineage 2 to Unity as a personal project. I thought some folks here might be interested since the process didn't seem to be well documented anywhere.

 

Please note that it's just a hobby project documented for educational reasons. I'm not planning on releasing anything.

I really like. You should reconsidering sharing it with our team.

I'm open to the idea. I thought it would be neat using Unity as a map editor, actually.

That's really nice! If you want, hit me up here, or on discord (911reg) and i might be able to give you a few tips on how to work with staticmeshes in a better way (you can basically turn the whole map into a single staticmesh if you want)
As for the missing floors and stuff like that, it's because most floors (and some walls) are made with bsp brushes, for example, here's Talking Island without terrain/staticmeshes:

And here's that big floating floor:

What an amazing job you've done there! Congratz! Maybe you should consider going harder on this, because the potential is huge. If you need help on anything hit me up!

I will be 1st in line to buy when available!

 

You could sell smaller releases(areas like primeval island, hellbound, blazing swamp, fog, or towns, catas/necrops, characters, armors, weapons, skills) while finishing complete client.

 

Would also like to see how mass pvp looks/performs with unity👍

I did consider making this into a a server-compatible client. However, I lack a thorough understanding of L2 server architecture and networking.

 

If anyone with such knowledge wants to talk, please let me know.

Looking at this again, I forgot to mention that the terrain problem in Elven Ruins is due to the Terrain Visibility tool (basically you can turn a portion of the terrain 'invisible', so you can make cave entrances and stuff like that).

For example, here's Elven Ruins with and without StaticMeshes

For more context, here's the documentation:

    • "Just make your own game!" sounds simple until you’ve tried it. I did, with Epic Dragon World and learned the hard way that "open source" often means "free labor for resellers." The MIT license became a buffet for people to grab code, rebrand it and ghost the project. Even basic collaboration collapsed because everyone wanted their vision, not *a* vision. NCSoft’s lawyers aren’t theoretical. They’re a sword of Damocles. Even if you rebuild a client from scratch, if it feels like Lineage 2, they’ll come knocking. Ask the Chrono Trigger fangame corpses how that goes. MMOs are hospice care. The genre’s on life support, kept alive by whales and nostalgia. Look at Throne and Liberty, NCSoft’s own "successor" to L2, flopping harder than a 2004 PKer in ToI. Classic reboots (WoW, L2) are bandaids, not resurrections. This is the hobby. Optimizing old systems, reverse-engineering spaghetti code and preserving janky mechanics is the fun part. Monetizing it turns it into customer service hell. No thanks. Community? What community? The L2 scene is 90% resellers, 10% players who’ll quit the second they don’t get +16 on day one. Both asking how to install Java and why running the uncompiled server does not work.
    • Dear players, Open beta test for C3 begins today at 19:00 server time (GMT +2). 💰 All participants who find bugs during OBT will be rewarded with Coin of Luck (CoL): - 1 CoL for each staticmesh issue found — e.g., walking through textures, etc., - 2 CoL or more for server-side issues, depending on their severity., We strongly recommend reviewing the quest list - when switching to Chronicle 3, the total number of quests should match the number shown in the upper right corner of the window and correspond to the quest count from Chronicle 2. To log into the game, use the same data you use to access the Airin server. 📌 Download client: Google Drive
