Milosanx on a rare trip down to water level Hey everyone! This week saw the changes to conversion come live, and the positive feedback has been noticed! We're working on a few things and will have more to share as they flesh out, but one thing is coming to the test server this weekend! but first... Patch Notes The Cowtapult! Those of you who follow us on Facebook may have already seen this, but we've been hard at work improving siege weapon mechanics, and first up is the catapult and trebuchet! Catapults and trebuchets should damage creatures, houses, fences, bridges and items that the projectile hits Clarification: It will hit ALL walls if it hits multiple. It will only hit one non wall item on the tile it lands on The new mechanics for them operate similarly to how they currently work, with focus on improving how the physics calculations are performed and remove those weird cases where they don't hit anything. We'll be setting up some testing scenarios such as house on a tall dirt wall and such over the weekend for you to check out, but we'd also like to know what scenarios you want to check out, so feel free to share ideas that you'd like us to setup for you to test. Our priority is getting all of them tested with different projectiles, distances and skill levels in PvP and PvE Scenarios both on and off deed to ensure they're balanced when they go live, so stay tuned for the test thread opening some time this weekend Variety is the spice of life Not one to rest on their laurels, the devs have been working hard on a long desired addition to the building, new house walls! This is a huge addition, with six new building types: Rendered wall Marble wall Pottery brick wall Round brick wall Sandstone brick wall Slate brick wall Pottery and sandstone Round stone and Rendered Marble and Slate That's not all though, there's new fence types to match the housing types, as well as a few additions and changes the paving! there will be a few new paving types, as well as a few changes to existing ones: Round cobble will use a new item round stone (same as round brick housing) Rough cobble will use Colossus bricks Slate slabs will be created by a chisel on combined slate shards like other slabs and some new pavement types you'll have to wait and see! The basics are up (without graphics) for internal testing, we'll have more info on the new types and a full list in next weeks news, this was far too exciting not to share though! Community Content This weeks community content is about a lost horse! Poor Rageed traveled off on his own one fateful night, and sparked fear for his safety in the heart of Ayuna, who cared for him. Luckily though, he was recovered safe and sound! Have you had a favourite pet? That's it from us this week, I'll see some of you on test, but until then, keep on Wurming! Retrograde & the Wurm team.

I will add new wall types into the DeedPlanner as soon as I will be able to.

Can we get clarification on this? Are you saying you can spam decorative items in longhouses to reduce the chance that walls even get hit???

I totally take credit for the walls <3 xD

All we need now is a low roof option instead of witch's hat looking roofs on a 3x3 or bigger.

Bid withdrawn. Sorry i have acquired another char and no longer need to bid.

BEEP BEEP - HERE COMES A LIVE UPDATE FROM THE WURM ONLINE TEAM; MACROS ARE STILL NOT ALLOWED. DO NOT MACRO. THAT'S ALL FOR THIS UPDATE. JBERG OUT.

Hellu yall, would like to invite every one to slay our very tiny Young Troll King, the Cow master Slay in our deed Darkness Falls in Pristine P 8 (in game map) Scheduled for Saturday night for me, in around Welcome to come and land a hit on it and gain a blood to make a nice stone cutting potion

About the marble. First off, I'm so happy we're getting marble, it's something I've been wishing for, for a very long time. In fact I did experiments back in the day with DeedPlanner, trying to envision how that could look. I'm wondering whether it would be possible to have a seam type that is a bit more elegant and royal. The blocks above give it a bit of a "plain" look. When I did my experiments, I was using the marble bridge texture as a base which I think is very nice indeed:

I would also like something like this: since with diagonal paving, we already have a code in place to recognize the surrounding tiles content, it would be nice to have a path that can recognize if it has "path tiles" touching it, then combining them to one consistent path or if it's touching grass etc. and if not touching any path it could be used for decoration as grassless spots I would really like some optical "break up" of tiles, that makes it less looking like tiles.

Oh my goodness oh my goodness oh my goodness!!!! New wall, fence and paved tile types WOOOHOO!!! This is the best news in a long time! I'm so so happy about this! This would be the perfect time to make a request for one of the new tile types. Something I've always wished we had, was a pavement that was a bit more organic and natural. Something that would melt into nature a bit more, like a forest pathway. The only way to do this I guess, would be using masks. Since I guess masks are already being used for making the diagonal tiles, I'm hoping it would be technically possible? The new tile type could be called "pathway" or something like that, and an already existing tile type like the rounded cobblestone could be used as a starting point:

Kings everywhere unite under one flag! Lets build a house with every new wall type and trap Saroman inside and collectively throw our gold coins and glimmersteel at him until our potato sacks and toy staffs are upgraded to royal tier!

Thanks for those of you who helped us find Rageed, and those who comforted Ayuna during her loss. Ayuna is a newer player and died to mobs at least twice while looking for Rageed. We offered to just give her a new horse, but she refused to let go of her white five speed. On the day we found it, she enlisted my help to defend her while we looked for it. The trip was made longer by hunting her corpse from her previous day's death. We had to enlist a priest to find her corpse, but both corpse and horse were later found after long hours and extensive fighting. I have to admit, it was quite an adventure. I never thought I would have so much fun doing PVE content, but I guess your experience is all the better when you have a goal in mind, someone to keep you company, and a horde of mobs to spice things up. Thanks for EVERYONE who helped us, including a special someone who made the whole rescue possible. You know who you are.

This was back when gaining fight skill was super piss hard so gaining even 50 fs was a real accomplishment - Especially on the PvE servers since it was a much less skill efficient way to fight creatures than fighting other players. So when he announced that PvP players would be allowed to come over and raid us we were understandably pretty upset, especially since a decent amount of players had given up entirely on fs after the "nerf incident" when a select group of cheating players on Wild resulted in a game wide percentage of fs removed for everyone. I had 5 or something fs before the nerf so that didn't matter much for me anyway, but hearing that PvP players would be allowed onto Jenn-Kellon Home really wasn't my cup of tea. The time of the JKH PvP was honestly one of the most devastating events in the game, because we lost the sense of community that we had prior to that. Everyone fortified their deeds and as soon as someone entered local you'd start PMing everyone you knew to find out whether they belonged or if they were a spy looking for a weakness. In a way I think the paranoia from that time is what caused the awful Area of Control to come into existence, and that was some really vile garbage. In the end there weren't many incidents during JKH's time of PvP, but the fear was still there since not everyone respected that we wanted to play PvE in peace.

Hi hi, I've been looking into JavaFX recently and thought I would make an attempt at creating a UI for creating and sharing recipes. It is aimed at non-techy types & hopefully makes creating recipes a little bit easier. IMPORTANT: Read the info here first: https://bitbucket.org/wurmtools/wurm-cookbook/wiki/Home Latest version (0.1) can be found HERE Links: Info/Wiki: https://bitbucket.org/wurmtools/wurm-cookbook/wiki/Home Download: https://bitbucket.org/wurmtools/wurm-cookbook/downloads/ Sample Recipes: https://bitbucket.org/wurmtools/wurm-cookbook/src/500e336905dca53ef60d76e9d0090ec91185213b/recipes/?at=master Source Code: https://bitbucket.org/wurmtools/wurm-cookbook/src If you run in to any issues then ping them up here & I will take a look when I get chance. Hope peeps will find this useful

Always found it odd that blue dye is so insane to get made. red - cochinaels are easy to come by and everyone skills butchering green - just mine it, easy white - just mine it, easy black - we can harvest acorns now but....blue - You have to scramble around botanising for ages, rarely getting woad, getting lots of random other junk and the chance its good QL is reaallllly slim. Couldn't we allow Woad to be put in planters and use similar code to herbs? Edit for important information - You can no longer botanise high QL woad without the skill. It is literally capped with your skill since 1.3. If you ever want to be able to make 90QL blue dye you need to find a person with 90+ botanising. Does anyone in the whole game have that!? Feb 9th Edit - Today the devs decided that Forestry, Milking and Botanising being actually slightly reasonable to grind for the first time in 10 years needed nerfing, so now it's even harder to get woad.

I don't think this is supposed to be possible.

Changes and additions Dye requirement for large and small crates has been reduced to 2.50kg and 1.50kg respectively. Merchants who move on due to poor business (self-dismiss) will now return their goods and coins inside a backpack through the mail system instead of returning each item individually. Cultivate option is now present on grass, steppe and mycelium tiles. You will now be able to forage and botanize on mycelium tiles. Planter racks will no longer fit in large storage units. Plants inside planter racks currently in large storage units will no longer grow. God conversion changes: HotS template kingdoms (default and PMK) can follow Libila or any player god. All others can follow anyone except Libila. As per the option for PMK libila priests in 1.3, Libila priests will be able to use the /transfer option to change to a player god deity without a faith loss until the 10th of April Epic terraforming events have been removed from the endgame of Valrei scenarios. Bug Fixes Bugfix: More text issues addressed. Bugfix: Changed a number of recipes that were using HFC instead of baking.

Ok, you got me, this isn't an actual picture of them. I have not finished imping them yet, but they will be 90ql before the auction ends Starting Bid: 10s Increment: 50c Frequently Asked Questions: Q. Is this auction for all 10 planters? A. Yes! Q. Are they all rare? A. Yes! Q. Do they stay rare after planting? A. Yes! Q. Does rarity add anything to the harvest? A. Allegedly 1 quality above your skill level. Q. Are they going to be 90ql? A. Yes! Q. What if you supreme one? A. You get to keep it! Q. Did your 7-year-old draw that picture? A. No...

Hi welcome to my warded of 1 token house and 10000 statues of boys

Just own it, bro. You're the toughest squeaky mother ###### on the server. Swallow that RED PILL

TBH no MR is the best thing about this server.

20x sand 20x concrete Mwahahahahaha

I know someone that will be very happy to hear slate can be used for housing and very disappointed it's not the least bit black or dark. Compare the slate shingles on the marble house to the slate house right next to it. When it comes to fencing, I hope they add an option that is a good companion/connection to bridges. The current short stone brick wall is 25% taller (and near impossible to see over) from bridge walls.

Along with the new house walls, are we going to get marble fountains, benches and the missing statues of demons and dogs? (I still have no clue why all other statues can be made from marble but these two, and I never got an answer everytime I asked).

First day and i tryed to make a hammer and got a unfinished hammer and needed a hammer to finish it

I just remember Rage. Rage from PvP towards PvE. About how they were using Wurm to build gardens. And wasting so much time and energy on 'silly' or 'stupid' things. Rage from PvE towards PvP. About how vindictively they were destroying people's homes and gardens. How maliciously they were rampaging and killing. Rage from PvE towards Rolf. About how he just... unleashed... this horde of 'horribleness' onto them without warning. And offered them no support or help. The whole community was in flames... It was absolutely awful. It might be the original source of the hatred between PvP and PvE. And probably the turning point in the evolution of Wurm and its community.

Dat PA thread lol. Nubs.

Make roads GM protected too, don't want people to quit

Congrats! Also added to wiki.

I am pleased to announce that Rageed has been found safe and sound. He was lovingly lead back to the deed and is back again with its owner. On another note, we found Ayuna's corpse as well with all her belongings. We also found that the skid line from the top of the mountain she created on the way down with her face had been covered by the snows. It is, in the end, a happy ending. Thanks to those that helped!

[22:00:26] Your title is now Imperial Dragonsmith. Finally got it

A couple days ago, my friend asked me if I remembered the first place we settled in. We were there for one night, but it was where I fell in love with the game. So it made me wonder how I thought about the game back when I started, and started reading chat logs I have saved from then. What silly things did you say when you were a newbie? If you still happen to have access to those logs, do you mind sharing? I will start with an event on day 3 of my adventures in Wurm. As we walked from the portal area coming from GV, I encountered this man on a horse who I thought was an NPC. After some confusion, he set both my friend and I with some food, a lump of iron, some tools and two cows to ride... yes, cows. We laughed so much at how silly we looked riding cows, but it was epic. We settled in a water level and horribly wet area and there it was where I cut my first tree. The next day I got a boat from a kind soul and we went elsewhere (Xanadu) where I settled. I took a moment to send our fellow wurmian a chat convo: Logging started 2016-11-10 [23:32:46] <Angelklaine> hi! [23:32:46] <System> Nirav is not currently available, please try again later. [00:22:09] <Angelklaine> Hello! [00:22:20] <Angelklaine> You on? [00:43:23] <Nirav> hello [01:24:11] <Angelklaine> hey [01:24:14] <Angelklaine> sorry to bother you [01:24:36] <Nirav> s cool what's up? i keel gettinmg busy [01:24:54] <Nirav> forget to look at this [01:25:22] <Angelklaine> We got a boat from someone else and moved to another place. Found a great place to settle. We left two cows, a pig and a chicken in a pen where you showed us [01:25:51] <Angelklaine> Didnt feel right killing your cow since it was a fast cow [01:25:59] <Angelklaine> and there is another young one [01:26:22] <Nirav> ok, thank yuo - will go them later. [01:28:58] <Angelklaine> no, thanks for everything you did for us. You have no idea how much it helped [01:29:01] <Angelklaine> especially the iron [01:29:07] <Nirav> awesome [01:30:02] <Angelklaine> I went premium so I will be around! [01:30:08] <Nirav> yay! Do you have any funny stories of your time in Wurm? Share them!

This is a great package for a starting player wanting to get setup right away. Will save you countless hours of painful grind. Good luck on your auction.

I'll buy Rare Rake and Rare Shovel for 10s total. If you agree send to "mewantcookie".

Awesome stuff! Good to see the players were heard.

Thanks for the silver Stinky. Transaction was smooth and I was assured by his old house that he was trustworthy. He delivered for me. I got my silver and the transaction was fast. I will be back. Gavias.

Your continuous push of the "query" could make for a change that no one wants. And you're supporting the nature of your query by stating that things should be uniform across the board. So, in essence, you're asking for a change... but not directly. Or you're asking for the other stuff to get reverted by presenting this argument (which, by the way, never works around here.... you should know by now that you don't make an outlandish suggestion to the Wurm team in hopes that they will see their previous mistake and that they'll correct their bumble up, because they won't. They'll just implement your outlandish idea too). Stop poking the sleeping bear. You really don't want to be bit and neither do any of the rest of us.

Few new screenshots. Reinforced cave floors Better cave editing (notice the contrast between reinforced cave walls and normal floors) Moo

This exists both in WO and WU to make deed export (a little bit) less exploitable, but I don't really mind if someone will override this behavior via WU mod. Just try to keep the overall heights sane. Volunteer developer here, so no wage/benefits other than forum badge and possibility to help in development of such awesome game. To be honest, I am actually leaning towards this option: collecting data takes very little, almost unnoticeable amounts of data, program is open sourced so there is no room for hidden stuff. Some people don't like being tracked even if this is just anonymous data, but knowing how users actually use the program helps a lot in developing it.

I've done a bunch and others have as well. I haven't checked since last weekend, but was probably 85% done then.

This is actually something I started working on with @urban, made a start and kind of dropped it when I stopped playing as much wurm and stopped modding. If no one else is working on this I could potentially continue but it would probably be more beneficial if someone in the community who is still active made the site, http://wurmmods.com/ is what I have so far as a starting point. P.S. Pretty sure none of the functionality works so clicking links/signing in does pretty much nothing.

Second verse, same as the first.... Macros are NOT allowed in Wurm Online!

I won't touch Unity. It's a breeding ground for sloppy programming and kids who think "Hello World" makes a game. Now if you said Unreal, that might make me a tiny bit excited. The thing is... Wurm's got a custom engine, and one that's undergoing a rewrite anyway. Also, being a programmer for a while... languages tend to become simply machine dialects. I never understood all this hype to favor one or another. They're tools... yes, you want an appropriate tool for the job, but ultimately it's the skill of the wielder that determines success.

+1. Freedom is the backbone of wurm and thus freedom players should not be treated like 2nd class players, as it is right now.
