| − | | |
| − | {{disclaimer}}
| |
| − | | |
| − | == 2.6.8 (2009-12-25) ==
| |
| − | There's a new main client release. It contains the accumulated changes from the preceding test clients.
| |
| − | | |
| − | This update also brings winter and Christmas in the form of new pack contents.
| |
| − | | |
| − | While this update should give a small performance boost (in particular with trees) to most people, it seems to trigger really bad performance in certain cases. If this affects you, please reduce your settings and bear with it. Further performance improvements are expected in the first half of January (Valve Standard Time). But if it makes the game simply unplayable, let us know.
| |
| − | | |
| − | (The release system decayed during my absence in spring, which lead to various complications, and that's why this update is very late and very big. We'll soon be resuming the regular small-and-frequent regime of yesteryear. So don't panic at the change list this time.)
| |
| − | | |
| − | Changes in 2.6.8.1472
| |
| − | | |
| − | * Console command 'bind' can now be used with one parameter (e.g. 'bind k') to show the current bind.
| |
| − | | |
| − | * Console command 'setoption' can be just with one parameter (e.g. 'setoption chat') to search for similar option names, and showing their values.
| |
| − | | |
| − | * New keybinds: DRAG, STOP_DRAGGING, PUSH, REPAIR, TURN_CLOCKWISE, TURN_COUNTERCLOCKWISE, PULL, IMPROVE, DIG, FLATTEN, PACK, HARVEST, FARM, CULTIVATE,
| |
| − | MINE_FORWARD, MINE_UP, MINE_DOWN, MINE_SURFACE, MINE_TUNNEL, PROSPECT, PICK_SPROUT, PRUNE, CUT_DOWN, CHOP_UP
| |
| − | | |
| − | Bind names are not final until they're part of a main client release. If you think any of the bind names are bad, explain why and suggest an improvement.
| |
| − | | |
| − | * Client will now retry connection failures, e.g. if the server is down or restarting. Known issue: It will also retry when it shouldn't, e.g. wrong password.
| |
| − | | |
| − | * Removed some options with limited or no effect.
| |
| − | | |
| − | * Changed reflection handling. Reflections now require FBO and GLSL support, but will use less memory and have better quality than before.
| |
| − | | |
| − | * Bugfix: Workaround for mipmap crash on ATI cards. This should remove the need for disabling FBO.
| |
| − | | |
| − | * Changes to hover text here and there. If you see something, say something.
| |
| − | | |
| − | * Now using LWJGL 2.1.0. Native win64 is now supported. In theory. No other interesting changes come to mind.
| |
| − | | |
| − | * LWJGL windows can now be moved during startup. Window can now be closed during startup.
| |
| − | | |
| − | * Changes to pack updater. Now has a separate file transfer bar for people who don't trust it. Optional graphics and sound packs can now be toggled separately.
| |
| − | | |
| − | * Client will now reconnect (or at least try) when disconnected.
| |
| − | | |
| − | * Bugfix: Workaround for the "This seems to be your first time playing" quirk, a.k.a "Press tab, then enter".
| |
| − | | |
| − | * Bugfix: Client would crash if it crashed before pressing play.
| |
| − | | |
| − | * New option no_terrain_render for people who have trouble playing. This option skips terrain rendering and just paints everything green instead.
| |
| − | Not intended for use except as a last resort if the client won't run normally.
| |
| − | | |
| − | * IRC connections now attach to the chat window
| |
| − | | |
| − | * There's a new crash window for expected bugs. You will know it by its cheeriness. Please report all crashes.
| |
| − | | |
| − | ... and potential other changes from while I wasn't around. Apparently there's a wiki search or something.

| − | * Add FISH keybind.
| |

| − | * Add BUILD_HOUSE_WALL, BUILD_HOUSE_WINDOW, BUILD_HOUSE_DOOR keybinds. These both start the wall and continue building it. The type of wall depends on whether you have a hammer/mallet or a trowel activated. These keybinds are high risk, as they might introduce issues with transforming wall types and accidental destruction of finished walls. If they don't work out, we'll remove them until a better solution is available.
| |
| − | | |
| − | * Bugfix: Client would crash if the maximum texture size was too small.

| − | | |
| − | == 2.5.2 (2008-11-01) ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | * Stability fixes
| |
| − | This should help people who got X Error BadMatch or BadWindow when trying to start. It also solves the problem where a new install on mac os 64 (or other platforms that don't support LWJGL) would crash. Also fixed is the crasher on new installs because of missing icons in the file chooser.
| |
| − | | |
| − | * New display option widget
| |
| − | Mostly the same as the old one, but with a few new features. JOGL now supports maximized mode, and both renderers support custom resolutions in windowed mode. It also disables most options you don't need to concern yourself with, so it should be easier to use. Being a new widget, please stay alert for regressions.
| |
| − | | |
| − | * Working scroll bar arrows
| |
| − | The arrows on scroll bars should now work. Clicking on the scroll bar itself is still on the todo list, so no need to tell us about that.
| |
| − | | |
| − | * Window manager improvement
| |
| − | The window positions are now saved and loaded based on the actual canvas size. So if you resize your window during play you won't overwrite your normal-size settings.
| |
| − | | |
| − | * Wiki viewer now supports redirects.

| − | ===Details===
| |
| − | ====Crafting toolbelt====
| |
| − | The crafting toolbelt is a floating window with up to five slots that can be assigned to anything in your inventory for single-click or hotkey access. During testing, everybody has one. It shows up always, in the upper left corner, and is just large enough to accommodate 5 Wurm item icons. It can be moved around by dragging it, like the compass image. After testing, it will be a craftable studded leather item, with the number of available slots depending on the quality of the belt. ''Crafting a belt will be required, as with compasses.''
| |
| − | | |
| − | To assign an item to a toolbelt slot, simply drag it from inventory to a slot. To activate a tool in the toolbelt, left click on its icon once in the toolbelt. Double-click is not required, in the toolbelt. To activate a tool using a hotkey, press the appropriate key on your keyboard.
| |
| − | | |
| − | To enable hotkeys, add the following to your autorun.txt:
| |
| − | <pre>
| |
| − | bind 1 activate_tool1
| |
| − | bind 2 activate_tool2
| |
| − | bind 3 activate_tool3
| |
| − | bind 4 activate_tool4
| |
| − | bind 5 activate_tool5
| |
| − | </pre>
| |
| − | | |
| − | This will bind keyboard keys 1 through 5 to slots 1 through 5 in the toolbelt. Slot 1 is the left-most slot in the window and numbering proceeds sequentially.
| |
| − | | |
| − | ====OpenAL====
| |
| − | OpenAL is the Open Audio Library. Enable it by choosing the option from the Sound tab in the launcher Options. You will also notice a new volume control in the Sound tab, which only affects OpenAL. OpenAL provides support for hardware surround-sound, up to 7.1, and provides reasonable positioning even with only stereo hardware.
| |
| − | | |
| − | ==== Set rendering options on the fly ====
| |
| − | For now, setting rendering options while inside the game is done in the console using the ''setoption'' command. The currently supported options are:
| |
| − | * reflections
| |
| − | * trees
| |
| − | * structure_render_distance
| |
| − | * render_glow
| |
| − | * terrain_bump
| |
| − | * tile_transitions
| |
| − | * use_tree_models
| |
| − | * gui_opacity
| |
| − | * censor_chat
| |
| − | * setting_timestamps
| |
| − | * glsl_enabled
| |
| − | * shadow_level
| |
| − | * cloud_shadows
| |
| − | * log_level
| |
| − | * inverse_mouse
| |
| − | * sound_al_gain
| |
| − | | |
| − | These options should be recognizable vs. their names in the launcher Options. Those which are checkboxes, such as GLSL Enabled, accept true or false as options. For example, you could enable GLSL shaders by typing in console:
| |
| − | | |
| − | <pre> setoption glsl_enabled true </pre>
| |
| − | | |
| − | Those which are drop-down lists of choices accept numbered options, from 0 in sequence up through the number of options in the list. For example, you could select Short rendering distance for structures by typing in console:
| |
| − | | |
| − | <pre> setoption structure_render_distance 1 </pre>
| |
| − | | |
| − | To set Extreme rendering distance for structures:
| |
| − | | |
| − | <pre>setoption structure_render_distance 4</pre>
| |
| − | | |
| − | The one slider supported is the new volume control, which accepts integer values from 1 to 30, with a default of 10 being no change in default gain. ''Values higher than 10 can result in nasty scratchy noises. Use at your own risk.'' (This is expected to change.)
| |
| − | | |
| − | Additional options which may or may not have a visible effect:
| |
| − | | |
| − | * cavedetail
| |
| − | * skydetail
| |
| − | * render_distant_terrain
| |
| − | * fast_yield
| |
| − | * release_context
| |
| − | * hint_fog
| |
| − | * hint_mipmap
| |
| − | * hint_linesmooth
| |
| − | * hint_perspective
| |
| − | * hint_pointsmooth
| |
| − | * hint_polygonsmooth
| |
| − | * use_smooth_points
| |
| − | * use_smooth_lines
| |
| − | * use_smooth_polygons
| |
| − | * use_anisotropic_filtering
| |
| − | * use_weather_particles
| |
| − | * outline_picking[/list]
| |
| − | | |
| − | | |
| − | ==== New bindables ====
| |
| − | | |
| − | There are 7 new bindables:
| |
| − | | |
| − | * toggle_climb
| |
| − | * toggle_faithful
| |
| − | * toggle_lawful
| |
| − | * fight_aggressively
| |
| − | * fight_normal
| |
| − | * fight_defensive
| |
| − | * fight_spam '''-- Currently broken'''
| |
| − | | |
| − | Sample binds you can add to your autorun.txt:
| |
| − | | |
| − | <pre>
| |
| − | bind u toggle_climb
| |
| − | bind i toggle_faithful
| |
| − | bind o toggle_lawful
| |
| − | bind h fight_aggressively
| |
| − | bind j fight_normal
| |
| − | bind k fight_defensive
| |
| − | bind l fight_spam
| |
| − | </pre>
| |
| − | | |
| − | You may of course choose any other keys that aren't already bound.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Before anybody complains, yes eventually both these options and the key bindings will have their own GUIs inside the client to customize them without having to type long ugly formulas into the console. Baby steps.
| |
| − | | |
| − | == 2.3.0 (2007-06-25) ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | * New jogl and lwjgl jars
| |
| − | * Only supports java 1.5 so you may have to upgrade
| |
| − | * Animations for emotes and actions should now play. The have to be implemented, tested and added to the packs by the Sunsplash guys first though.
| |
| − | * The bug where light sources didn't work on logon fixed
| |
| − | * The bug where the contents of a container sometimes disappeared during drag and drop fixed
| |
| − | | |
| − | | |
| − | == 2.2.0 (2007-02-20) ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | * [[IRC]] logging, timestamping and censoring, just like the normal chat.
| |
| − | * Fixed a bunch of bugs.
| |
| − | * <em><strong>Animations</strong></em> are supported on models now. There already is a walking animation for the male character, and it will work as soon as the packs are updated.
| |
| − | * Flowers. Note that the flowers you get now are just test flowers, and will be replaced with prettier and more varied textures later on.
| |
| − | * Added "toggle gui" to the console. You might want to bind it to a key. (Default for new players is F10.)
| |
| − | | |
| − | | |
| − | == 2.1.10 (2007-01-23) ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | * New console commands:
| |
| − | **wiki <topic>: (opens a wiki window about the topic)
| |
| − | **irc [server] [port]: (default is irc.heavenlyplace.net and 6667)
| |
| − | **ircsay: (sends a message to the topmost irc window, can be used to bind a key to identify your nick)
| |
| − | **dump skills: (dumps the chosen argument to file. Only skills right now)
| |
| − | * If the server denies your login request, you get a "crash"-window telling you why, instead of just wurm quitting as it did in the past.
| |
| − | | |
| − | | |
| − | == 2.1.9 (2007-01-03) ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | * Rocks in [[grass]] and [[dirt]] are back in.
| |
| − | * [[Lava]] emits occasional puffs of smoke.
| |
| − | * Support for painted creatures, both like items are painted, and a simple rgb multiplication.
| |
| − | * Support for creatures of non-standard size. This can be used to make, for example, Emperor Spiders which are four times as large as normal ones, without requiring new art.
| |
| − | | |
| − | | |
| − | == 2.1.8 (2006-12-30) ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | * More butterflies from grass
| |
| − | * Birds in the sky
| |
| − | * [[Fish]] in the water
| |
| − | * Made smoke particles lit by the surroundings
| |
| − | * Tweaked fog particle generation a bit for "mistier" fog (pretty weather required)
| |
| − | * Particles fade out when close to the screen to avoid blinking when a particle passes the player
| |
| − | * New console command: "refresh". Rebuilds most display lists and textures. Use if your terrain starts looking weird.
| |
| − | * The [[spyglass]] works again now, and is more useful than ever!
| |
| − | * New option: Sky Detail. Set to high for more detailed clouds, but much less fps. Set to low for very crude clouds, but heaps of fps.
| |
| − | | |
| − | | |
| − | == 2.1.7 (2006-12-29) ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | * Support for transparent creatures. Only used for [[spirit guards]] now.
| |
| − | * Fixed the picking (mouse-overing) so walls won't block things behind them and so. There might be a small fps drop when hovering the screen because of this.
| |
| − | * Rewrote the collision detection to allow cylinders as well as polygons, and to get rid of the "snags" when following a wall.
| |
| − | * Made [[tree|trees]] block movement again.
| |
| − | * Tweaked the fires. Smoke will now drift with the wind.
| |
| − | * Trees near the player now sway in the wind again. The effect is very subtle when there's little wind.
| |
| − | * Added basic support for stone [[house|houses]]. Major server work is needed for this.
| |
| − | | |
| − | | |
| − | == 2.1.6 (2006-12-05) ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | * Even darker [[mine|mines]] and nights without [[torch|torches]]
| |
| − | * Better light from torches
| |
| − | * Natural light from cave entrances
| |
| − | * Fixed rain! It should show up correctly again
| |
| − | * You can now finally mouse-over [[Sol]] and the moons again
| |
| − | * Support for items and players tied to the ground layer. This means players and items shouldn't float or get stuck under ground anymore. If the server tells the client something is as height "0", the client always renders them on the ground.
| |
| − | * Visible tools (if performing an action that requires a tool) or weapons on players! See screenshot below.
| |
| − | * Added options to adjust structure and item/creature rendering distances.
| |
| − | * Tweaking terrain/cave picking to make it easier to hover items partially embedded in the ground
| |
| − | | |
| − | | |
| − | == 2.1.5 (2006-11-30) ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | * The floors in caves are much flatter now, to make losing things in there harder.
| |
| − | * Caves are WAY darker. I might actually make them even darker in the next client update once I add natural light from entrances
| |
| − | * No more free torch at night
| |
| − | * The client supports light sources attached to models and players. The server will send this information for lit torches and lamps.
| |
| − | | |
| − | | |
| − | == 2.1.4 (2006-11-27) ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | * Fixed time synching. The sun should be in the right position now
| |
| − | * Fixed light sources not working right
| |
| − | * Fixed the volume problems in the sound engine
| |
| − | * Fixed the insane slowdown when hovering the game area (not gui) with the mouse.
| |
| − | * Fixed the annoying popup reset for right click menus. You should be able to use them without waiting for the refresh now.
| |
| − | * Added visible player model (male only for now, needs a protocol change for female)
| |
| − | * The client now remembers window positions
| |
| − | * New wurm logo! Should be replaced in the web page as well some day. Wink
| |
| − | * New loading screen.
| |
| − | * The client saves keybindings to a separate file, so if you bind a key ingame, it's remembered the next time you run the game.
| |
| − | * Added an option to not download optional packs. This reduces the initial patch from ~90 mb to ~9 mb, but you (obviously) won't see all models.
| |
| − | * New console command: say. Sends a message to :Local. Example: say /time
| |
| − | * New console command: reallyquit. Quits the client without asking if you're sure.
