Art update
« on: August 16, 2011, 08:45:47 am »
[news taken from main site]

2011.08.15

We hope you are having a good summer! In the meantime, we managed to publish a small art update with the following changes:

  
  • All shields were not getting the right shadows, now they are all fixed.
  • While we fixed the shields we added to those more realistic bump effect ("normal maps")
  • Three new musical instruments have been added in the light of the new developments we are doing on music. Lute, Lira and Drum.
  •  A new trophy has been added, third one of the series
  •  Fixed/Improved Spell Effects of Daemon Arrow, Recovery, Relaxing Sleep, Diamond Skin

To get this update just launch the updater and it will auto update.

Great news. Looking forward especially to see what will happen with player music.

Thanks! I like new musical instruments.

About the Diamond Skin. The effect improvement is good, but it'd be also nice to have a real benefit from the spell itself. I.e. when is antimagic going to be implemented?

And regarding shields, they are also misaligned on several models (for example Dermorians), and look like they stick through hands. Is it planned to be fixed too?

Where will the instruments come from - only quest rewards at first?

Yes, the source for the instruments is not clear. Are they available at all in some regular fashion (quests, purchases from NPCs etc.), or just added as art models to the client? If the second, then it's like inaccessible caves - for GMs only :)

There will be an event to present the new items. Best will be both sold and through quests, where quests will provide enhanced versions. More news on this later on.
