SOE has brought us quite a few updates today!

Update Notes: October 27th New Player - Fix some cases where you could end up outside the newbie tutorial or get outside of a multiplayer ship in space. Art - Added facial animations for Sullustans and Ithorians SpaceUI - Crosshair should not snap to the ship. - The weapon group "flyout" should show current weapon group selected. - Fixed an issue on your radar: capital ships and space stations would draw behind all blips. Once the group UI would be deactivated, it would never reappear.

Here is a new guide!

Heya Folks! Today's guide "How to use JTL's new 'Space'droid features!" was submitted by TheRealTK421 - Former Droid Engineer Correspondent! A sincere thank you for putting this guide together in time for our launch!

Aside from the link provided you can also find a copy at this link. SOE has also released a small bit of advice for those of experiencing increased lag as of late.

Graphics Options There are new graphics options with JtL that are automatically enabled for all players. One thing players can do to improve their game performance is to check their graphics settings. Press CTRL-O in game and open up your options window. Click the "Graphics" button and turn features on or off to suit your needs.
