May 6, 2007 - Server Down for new release (v 0.3.19)

[Raleigh]

The inventory's code changed, not the art. So it looks the same

I suppose that certain bug exploits regarding using sacks to carry more weight than what a character could carry normally are gone.

[ThomPhoenix]

I'll check.
edit: seems fixed.

I can also tell you it's probably going to be more than a day. We found quite some issues, hehe.

I have a ATI Rage 128 video card which just does play the game is this upgrade gonna require a video card level thats likely to freeze me out ?

[Karyuu]

There will be no changes that require any hardware upgrades.

[Xuma Amux]

 ...Thank you!

[sliss]

How is it going guys?

The new client is installed and ready to fire-up (only art is missing and your server work...)

Keep up the good work!

When it is ready there will be download links ready on the download page on the main site. Till you see that or an annoucement about it you will not hear anything.

[Ennon Galita]

Just curious, in the new client release:

1) Will there be any updated map or any new map areas?

2) Will there be any world map images available in-game? Or will I have to create one?

Thanks.

Cheers!

We will not reveal anything on the new art content of the release, until you can actually see it for yourself :] This has always been our policy.

[Ennon Galita]

Gah, I figured that. I'll have to find out myself....

[drakken1020]

Out of curiosity, why aren't the users informed ahead of time about a planned shutdown that could potentially last for more than 24 or 48 hours?

As a sidenote, announcing it (the shutdown) wouldn't mean accommodating users' schedules, it would simply allow users to put their characters in proper order.

[Karyuu]

What "proper order," exactly? What could you possibly need to do?

We never know exactly when we will shutdown the server for a release. We didn't know we would do it the day before it was done. At some point most of the content gets to a state considered mostly ready, a test package gets created, and the server is taken offline.

[drakken1020]

Fair enough. I appreciate all your hardwork. Thank you.

[Aresius]

Aww... I just registered and downloaded the game. Don't know what to think though: if it's bad 'cause i can't play it right now, or if it's good 'cause i'm gonna play a new release.
Anyway, glad to see you work on the game pretty hard. I'll be here waiting for the server to get up.
