How do we know ThaiMS made any of this at all?
I've been asking that forever and have yet to receive a good answer other than people assuming they just made some.

it doesn't matter who's folder it's in, you certainly can't determine based on file placement who's creation it is. no one here knows so all of these "facts" are completely baseless. this is your opinion, you need to make that clear so you're not spreading false information. slip too.

i'm not convinced that this wasn't a nexon america/asiasoft collaboration, still. timing of release, in my opinion, is quite telling. since asiasoft is it's own company, i'm in the belief that they have the same capabilities as nexon korea in terms of content generation, so while nexon america could have planned, written and initially designed the product, asiasoft could've created and coded the hard product, since nexon korea has it's hands full atm. asiasoft missing half the data also doesn't mean anything, as they've clearly stated they're releasing this content by week rather than over game-time, like GMS.

Looking back at all the "exclusive" events and "exclusive" areas, I don't think there was even one scenario where the version who is making it ("exclusive" for them) has placed the Map/NPC/Mob files anywhere outside their own regional data-ranges (ie. Continent 6 for GMS/EMS, Continent 8 for JMS, Continent 5 for THMS/MSEA, and so on). The mobs and NPCs also play a role in this, as "exclusive" material will be designated an ID following previous "exclusives" within a regional data-range. This data range can be easily extended and usually consists of consecutive numbers from a certain starting point. Future expansion or exclusives will simply continue counting from the last ID that was left off (ie. For mobs starting at 9400500 are GMS exclusives, 9420000 are THMS exclusives, 9420500 are MSEA exclusives, and so on). NPCs also follow suit (ie. For NPCs starting 9330000 are TWMS exclusive, 9310000 are CMS exclusives, 911/9120000 are JMS exclusives, and so on.)

MS data is extremely organized, and it IS very possible to tell which version made which area (with the exception of KMS, since they create content all versions are bound to get) by simply looking at any of the following data relating to the area: NPC, Mob, Map, Reactor, Sound, or String data. In situations where two versions may have "collaborated", the version which the data points to is either the version that it was intended for, or the version that originally came up with the idea.

Although there is no TRUE way of knowing WHICH version made WHAT, the data has been extremely accurate to date. If Nexon America really created all of this, then it would all be under Continent 6, and the NPC/Mob IDs would follow the NPC/Mob IDs from the Cake vs. Pie event. The map strings would certainly not be under "thai".

This goes back to the argument that GMS is expanding on the idea which ThaiMS originally created.

ThaiMS is likely to implant the "real time" concept that Nexon America is. However, if they do not, it is something Nexon America had added to the area.
