I'd long ago given up hope on Tri being revived, but the recent revival of Mosnter Hunter 1 on PS2 has made me a little bit more optimistic about its chances, especially considering the man in charge is considering doing some of the other MH games as well.
Has anyone reached out to Capcom and asked for server software for the game? It sounds like a longshot, but someone on Capcom's forums made a similar request when MH1 was being shut down, and rather than being ignored or answering with an immediate "no", one of the admins actually asked their network engineer. The answer was still no due to the servers being hosted by a completely different company who still owned the rights to the software, but from what I understand Capcom was in charge of Tri's servers, so you never know.
