So was "SCoRE" the project that turned into Paragon Chat?

Or was that still an independent effort?  Has SEGs been officially abandoned?

SEGS was an entirely seperate thing, as far as I know. As for the SCoRE, I couldn't say.

SCoRE stood for Secret Cabal of Reverse Engineers... nobody knows who they were/are or what they were/are doing because they're secret

SECRET

However Paragon Chat was somebody's (CodeWalker's) project.  That doesn't mean it is or was the only project that people who are/were working on Paragon Chat were or are working on now.

Paragon Chat is an offshoot of efforts to reverse engineer CoH, much like Icon before it. That said there's no proof that it's directly related to whoever or whatever SCoRE might be. Certainly efforts to reverse engineer the original servers would have to go far beyond what's being done with Paragon Chat due to the greater complexity of the servers and not having actual server code to work with, but it does show that reverse engineering the client has been pretty successful, so there's that.
So far so good. Onward and upward!
