Preserving a classic.

AegisRO2 Remake is a preservation-first revival. We are restoring the coastal starter islands, the whimsical monster designs, and the rich mechanics that made The Gate of the World unique.

This isn't just a static museum piece. By pairing an exact rebuildable C++ client source with a custom OpenGL world editor and a live Saga server engine, the world is truly playable again.

The Custom OpenGL World Editor

Because the original 2007 mapping tools were permanently lost, we built a custom OpenGL-based map editor from scratch to read, edit, and generate RO2 world maps natively.

Map Generation & Archaeology

The original world of The Gate of the World contained dozens of incomplete or highly damaged maps. Our tool allows for full archaeological restoration by parsing the original proprietary format. For missing regions, we built a procedural map generator that creates realistic RO2-style terrain—complete with winding rivers, mountain terraces, sandy coasts, and farm hamlets—using the original 2007 asset libraries.

Core Features

  • Real-time Lighting: True Modulate2X vertex lighting and sunlight directional shadows, baked interactively as you edit.
  • Terrain Sculpting: Multi-layer alpha-texture painting, interactive heightmap adjustment, and hole punching for caves and dungeons.
  • Object Placement: Real-time placement of trees, buildings, water planes, and particle emitters (smoke, fire, magic).
  • First-person Walk Mode: Instantly drop the camera to ground level to explore the map exactly as a player would, with correct collision detection.
