You can actually visit one of the Nexus chunks, it's .rift nexus273. It looks like there was supposed to be a bunch of elemental wings of the dungeon.

Just curious - are you able to pull in art assets, for like zones / geometry, etc., from Vanguard to UE5? Most of the humanoid NPC's, the PC's, and the mounts looked like complete garbage in my opinion - but I really enjoyed the look of the world.

Any update on this Xinux Xinux ? Still years away from a soft launch / beta? Or is it closer?

Looks completely stalled since the pandemic. From glancing at the task list it's not really clear what is the holdup, if it's personal or technical. Definitely looks like a complete stallout though-- and not just for a year, but a few years. Not a good sign.

I miss this game too. Been checking my backups for old screenshots I took but they look to be lost. Found this one from 2007 though. Most likely from the old FoH site.

Since they found the original 2006 EQ2 build for the first time this year, there is a strong chance Vanguard is stored somewhere in proximity. It taking over 10 years for a tech to recover the 2006 EQ2 build people had been asking for doesn't instill much confidence though. Maybe in another 10 years someone will stumble on it.
