It's been many years since i played this game (as is obvious to me by my character name lol)
I was on youtube the other day and i saw a video about Mir4, i'm sure many of you remember Game Network, Legend of Mir and Myth of Soma were both broadcast on that channel and i believe they have some kind of connection to do with the developers? I never took to Mir but it turns out it is on its 4th version of the game, Mir4 releasing very recently, in comparison Soma development (not including Somadev, BoH) died after its first iteration. I really wish it had been the other way around, it got me thinking how amazing a Soma4 could have been, heck even a Soma2. This was the first game i fell in love with and it often pops into my head now and again, i can't see myself playing again but i'd like to ask what the server and community is like today, is there any active development still going on? Did we ever get any real new armour/weapon skins or is it still just re-coloured items? I wonder how much it would cost to develop a real Myth of Soma 2 from scratch, nothing fantastical... shall we pool some money together haha?

from what i gathered there is something being worked on with all new models etc
just takes alot of time and in places money for development, i believe it has slowed over the festive period due to irl commitments from main developers. tools / designs / models having to be made from scratch etc looks to follow the original story etc also

Agreed, it’s a shame Soma didn’t get the funding/development it deserved in regards to a more up to date version of the game.
The great thing about Soma is no matter how old it gets, I think it will always be a thing. Even in another 20 years people will still play, provided there’s a server up. As far as development goes, the game as it is, is pretty limited. However the Gms of this server continue to add to the game, there’s also another server in the works with completely new maps, weps and as far as I know some decent progress on a 3D character model for making armours. In a way I’m quite glad Soma didn’t go as far as a 4th game. From what I’ve seen the new Mir is a shitty auto play game. For some reason a lot of eastern made games have this feature and I really don’t see the appeal.

Are the new tools available to us? I remember they released on another forum whenever they developed stuff?
Edit, found somadev forum and and old post I helped with http://www.somadev.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=26&t=14 http://www.somadev.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=26&t=306 Are they still applicable? Wouldn't mind getting back into it again, noticed the bug for vod where you can walk up mountains and gaps in the cliffs is still there but can be fixed using the tools. Edit edit, links dont work on the forum, does anyone still have?

The myth of soma, if at all possible needs to be developed on blockchain. NFT items, earn revenue from playing.
