New patch out

NasirJNasirJ Member UncommonPosts: 164

Some decent progress so far. And the combat patch is coming soon as well.

 

Version 0.12.18.20 – Beta

2010-02-03

------ ADDITIONS & CHANGES ------

In the character creation, you will now find Backgrounds. There are ten (10) different Backgrounds which contain a preset of skills your character has when starting out in Nave.

Please note that Backgrounds do not in any way limit the player in what skills they wish to learn later on.

You will now discover (learn) certain skills when you perform actions related to these skills, as long as you fulfil the prerequisites. For instance picking up a sword and swinging it will unlock the Swords skill without the need to read a skill book.

General:

- Stuck command is now triggered with /stuck.

- Pos command is now triggered with /pos.

- Trade is now triggered with /trade.

- Tame is now triggered with /tame.

- Use is now triggered with /use.

- Loot is now triggered with /loot.

- Showing your Murder Count is now triggered with /iconsidermysins or /murdercount.

- Added support for emotes write /emote to get a list of available emotes. To trigger an emote use /emote EMOTENAME. Please note the animations are still under progress, they are not final.

Combat:

- Damage that is less than 0 is now rounded down to 0.1 to ensure you get hit-feedback when being hit.

- Decreased the release speed for melee attacks.

- Increased the timer for how often you can knock down a player with your horse from 1.5s to 4.0s.

- Knocking down people when you are on a mount will now drain your mounts stamina by a fixed amount.

- Getting knocked down now reduces your stamina by a fixed amount rather than draining all of it.

- There is now a chance that riders get knocked down from their mount when it is hit with enough force. More force increases the chance of knocking down the rider.

- Reduced unarmed damage.

AI & Mounts:

- Urials now reside in the mountains.

- All creature hit boxes have been made smaller.

- Creatures should now have a chance to miss even when facing its target correctly.

- Wisents and Domestic pigs have been made more courageous.

- Fleeing creatures will now dart and change directions more often.

- Creatures will now spawn their loot at their killer's position when they die.

- The leather vendor now sells cotton.

- NPCs will now turn and look at you when you use them.

- Mounts will no longer turn around after you have dismounted them.

- Creatures should now be less affected by difference in size when generating creature courage.

- Only some creatures will now guard the corpse of a defeated foe.

Art & Sound:

- There is now a mountain pass from Morin Khur to Toxai.

- Grinder added at the cave Camp.

- Increased speed of the blocking animation to make it almost instant to better reflect what is really happening.

- Fixed lots of minor graphical issues in Myrland.

- Sound now available in 128 simultaneous voices instead of 32.

- Vadda has got a small facelift.

- The area around the Fabernum farm priest has got a facelift.

- Meduli has got a small facelift.

Guilds:

- If a Guild master leaves a guild the person next in rank will now get promoted to Guild master.

- If a House Owner leaves a guild they can no longer create a new guild and leave the old guild in limbo. If the house owner wishes to create a new guild, they must ask the new Guild master of the old guild to disband the guild. Another option is to transfer ownership of the house to the Guild master and build a new house.

Skills & Attributes:

- There is now a book for Boiled Leather lore.

- Mining yields has been increased 10 times as a temporary fix until next patch.

- When a pet becomes too scared to attack it will run back to its return target if set, otherwise if its tamer is around, it will return to its tamer. If the tamed creature has nowhere to return it will just stay where it is.

- When using the abandon command it will now clear all tamed creature data on the tamer even if the connection between tamer and pet is bugged. This should make it possible to re-tame a bugged creature although you won’t gain XP again from it.

- Transfer command is now up and running again and should work as intended.

- When transferring a tamed creature, the loyalty of the creature also got transferred. This has been changed; instead the loyalty of the transferred tamed creature will depend on its new tamers skill.

- Aggressive Stance had some flaws and has been tweaked to work better. It is now explained in the updated Quick Guide.

- The only way to stop an aggressive tamed creature is to have its tamer change the tamed creature’s mind-set either to passive or defensive.

- Taming has been tweaked again to be less costing to server performance.

- New pet command added: setreturn.

This command gives the tamer the possibility to choose where or to which target the tamed creature should return to after battle. Read updated Quick Guide for more information how to use it.

UI:

- Credits screen added in character selection screen.

- Re-skinned parts of the user guide menus.

- New weapon icons added.

- You can now right-click the Plus/Minus icons at the Attribute page in the character creation to distribute five (5) points at a time.

- Overhead chat now has a black background and white text to make it easier to read.

- Overhead chat now stays twice as long on the screen.



------ BUG FIXES ------

Optimization:

- Fixed a severe bug that caused the cluster server to crash. *

- Fixed a bug that caused independent nodes to crash, resulting in players ending up desynchronized and in offline mode. *

- With the introduction of Backgrounds the database load will be significantly decreased and result in a lot less lag. *

General:

- Fixed some starting locations that were linked to the wrong location.

AI & Mounts:

- The leather, reagents and utility vendors in Morin Khur are now functioning again.

- Tamed creatures should now behave as intended even if its tamer is offline.

- Creatures should no longer (or less frequently) run around continuously aimlessly towards nothingness.

- Creatures should now when defeating a foe correctly guard the corpse if it's in their behaviour to do so.

Housing & Bridges:

- Fixed a bug that would cause house hit points to get roll backed at a server reboot.

- You will no longer be flagged as a trespasser when looting a chest in your guilds house.

- Bridges will no longer cap at 2k hp when in their first construction phase.

Skills & Attributes:

- It should no longer be possible to tame while resting.

- Tamed creature's should now again be affected by the in-game flagging system. This means that if a tamed creature attacks anyone flagged blue, it will together with its tamer take the consequences of this action.

- After many tries of solving the issue of lost connection between tamer and its pet, comes now a fix that should resolve this matter.

- Tamed creature's follow speed when following a target had some problems which should now be resolved.

- Renaming a tamed creature will now save capital letters in the creatures’ name.

Art & Sound:

- Some missing props in the area around Meduli have reappeared.

- The Kiln at the cave camp should now work properly.

- Water levels in the jungle should now be correct.

- Grizzly outside Bakti should now work properly.

- Further fixed issues with characters that appear to be falling when they are really just going up and down slopes.

UI:

- Rock oil and Water now have t he correct icons.

- Guild Stone Deed now has the correct Icon.

- Book vendors should now have the correct display name.

- Fixed an issue with the music on/off button and expensive footsteps on/off button in the options window.

    Looks like it was just announced recently.

    Going to be a bit before it is deployed i'm guessing.

  • NasirJNasirJ Member UncommonPosts: 164

    The patch hasn't been applied quite yet. Not sure what they are waiting for. Also there is going to be a character wipe.

    where you get that info?

  • NasirJNasirJ Member UncommonPosts: 164



    [18:25:29] <TheMap> So is this going to be a full wipe or are certain guilds/characters going to retain there skills/items?

    [18:25:40] <[L]`Mesk> Where did you find those images kootney

    [18:25:40] <[MOR]Cylox> full wipe

    [18:25:40] <@HenrikNystrom>; themap, yes full whipe

  • LiquidWolfLiquidWolf Member CommonPosts: 516

    Hrm... they said for Open Beta there would not be a wipe...

    The open beta will run on one cluster server based in Stockholm (Sweden). Please keep in mind that, depending on the onslaught of new players, we will have to cap the server at a certain point.

    There will NOT be wipe before open beta.

    But... sometimes I guess it is needed. Perhaps it has to do with their fixes.

    Ah well... having those skills was fun while it lasted :)

    Time to push for them again.

    --Creatures will now spawn their loot at their killer's position when they die.

    This sounds highly exploitable...  Unfortunately I can't test it as I'm not paying full game price to help them fix their problems.

    Well, I might as well ask.

     

    Hmm, I wonder who coded it...? *looks around*

    Says the DF fanboi. Please, once you've pledged you aliegence to DF you forego any right to have an opinion, on any games thing ever again.

    Why the hate towards DF?

    By your logic anyone who likes MO also has no opinion, which I assume includes you.

    I admit DF seeing the light of day much less actually getting better is a minor miracle in itsself  but don't get pissed at the fanbois  that actually got it right for once!

    Just sayin...

    I get that more often than not. Just wait a bit and it should finish whatever it's doing. Then the "Play" button will light up.

    They did something with the database to make it less laggy and it has to do with character skills and attributes so they have to whipe to apply the fixes.
