Do you plan to update the models and animations?

After release i'll do it step by step. First i'll hire a few people to redraw mob/character textures with pbr & higher quality, that will give them good looking. Then i'll try to change models and animations

Do I understand your approach correctly, that you:
1. Start the Metin2 client process
2. Inject your extension into the process like a hack
3. Redirect the calls to the graphic system to the Unreal Engine instead?

If so, and since Metin2 clients are, or were back in the days, compiled into a 32 bit executable, there is a limit of 2-3 GB user mode memory for the process, won't there be out of memory problems with the additional Unreal Engine, new textures and models loaded into the same process?

Or do you spin up a 2nd process for the graphic extension with some sort of IPC between the two processes?

It is 2nd process like you said last one, so there is 64 bit binary, memory wont be problem

thank you for your effort to give this a more modern look, i hope we can get this on official server, if not, i hope it's easy to mod.

It is currently working on official servers, if gameforge doesn't block it, you can use it without problem. Probably they won't do that because they will get more players too.
