The Summer of Bugslaying

In light of community feedback, we've decided that our main focus for the next few months will be on bugfixes.

Other future insights:

• new clothing options
• in-game Valrei map
• planters and jars (amphora)

There will also be some client additions over the next few months. Tich has been working hard on a new permissions system, and we also have plans to make some changes to elements of the client's rendering system.

May Treasure Hunt - Celebration

By Spellcast - Forum Link

So another treasure hunt is upon us.

I've scaled this one back a bit from the last one, which was a bit overly complex and confusing in some respects. There is only a single run, with 12 clues.

The end of the hunt will have:

• 10 chests with prizes that will be immediately available

-OR-

• 20 keys, one of which will open a grand prize chest at the start town.

In addition to the grand prize, there will be 19 other chests in the start town, each with a small item in them as consolation prizes so anyone who manages to get a key will get something, even if its not the grand prize.

Spring Update

By Wossoo - Forum Link

Bridges, Boats and Stairs!

We will be releasing the Spring Update next week, on Tuesday 12th May. We don't have a specific time set, but will aim to release as soon as we can on the day.

Key updates:

• The first and main feature of the update will be bridges. The feature will be released in full, allowing for all kinds of creativity... ranging from bridges across water and valleys to bridges between buildings, in four flavours: rope, wood, stone and marble.
• We are also releasing a couple of other features in the release, the first of which is the new boat models. The boats themselves will go unchanged, but all boat types will get updated models.
• The last part of the update will be stairs.

That concludes this week's news. Excited? Join us next Tuesday for the release of the biggest single feature since multi-storey housing!
