I haven't been able to get onto SWG for the last couple of weeks. I have read about the Combat Upgrade but I am still confused. Could somebody explain to me but I am supposed to do once I download the CU and start the game? (FYI, I know a lot of things about SWG I have been playing since Day one, just nothing about the Combat Upgrade) Thanks.

Ok, First thing that will happen is a small window popping up, asking if you want to respec. Choose Later. You can always bring the respec window back by typing /respec . You might get a warning saying that you have to respec because you need skills you didn't need previously. Obviously then you have to do that, double click on a skill toremove it, and double click on one to add it. Click the help window in the top right corner for a thorough explanation of the respec window.


If you've had your armour removed examine it to see what type it has become (battle, reconnoisance or assault) then look in your elite professions novice boxes for what armour you're allowed now. You can refit the armour you have to an armour you can use. It won't loose stats, just change appearance. If it was a really good armour previously it might give you hindrances to movement, accuracy and rate of fire. If so, get new armour with less hindrances.


Your weapons will have changed. Most of the weapons are tied to a level rather than skill, most, not all. A high dps (damage per second) and low specials cost is good. 400 dps and up is good (someone else might disagree).


Go through your toolbar, choose the specials that sounds cool.


Run to a mission terminal, grab a mission that is 2-3 levels below yours, try the specials out until you see what they all do.

Now I am haveing another problem. I logged in today after fixing up my skills, and I see that everything is screwed up. My ENTIRE toolbar is messed up with icons and skills I don't even have. I can no longer hit alt to get cross hair back. I cannot get it back at all. I have to right click to run, and while Im running I can't look ahead of me. I have to stop, left click and turn to face forward, then face to my left and right click to see where I'm going. This really sucks as I have no idea on what the heck to do to fix it. Help anybody?

Hit Ctrl O, go to controls, click on keymap at the bottom and choose SWG from the pull down menu and that should give you the original controls.


Might want to bind your alt key to something else, many of us had issues with it.


As for the icons/skills, all of them changed when the CU hit. Just have to sort out the ones you want to have in your toolbar.



- I'll always miss pre-CU but I still have fun.
