wipeout

64i and delivery please

Oh i know but its to limit the amount of tracking for example the browser we both use for work creates new user agent for every page you visit and all kinds of other things that just help prevent activity from being tracked, add in an ip that does not point to the physical location of our home and all kinds of other bits makes you become a lot harder to be found out. A lot can be done to make it so that they can't create a profile of your device and your habits and as such the data you provide them while you use their services becomes useless in using it to find out if its you or not. But that is a topic for something else and not this post really

I was sure i had that added but let me post it here then again Somewhere along the way the port 3724(that wurm uses among a few other programs) was not being routed properly anymore to my pc from my router even though it should be, undoing the configuration for that port and redoing it again seems to have fixed the issue. It was more so a networking issue that popped up out of the blue and wurm was the only one affected by it(the other software using the port wasn't) but giving it the good old "turning it off and on" on a single config setting on my router fixed it. Aka magical router space wizard crap that should not work made it work. So thankfully it was not related to GA being blocked so that can remain being blocked for good.

update: So after talking with @polarbearabout it for a while we found a solution to it so yay back to enjoying wurm's xp bonus still a curious thing

Given that both ig and tiktok went from multiple posts a week to once a week to now nothing for 2 weeks(might seem silly to complain but if you wanna grow you gotta stay active) my guess is all this stuff will just fall dead and silent and only receive some necromancy to attempt to revive it in like half a year when its asked from higher up "so how are our socials doing" or something like that. Instead of them going down the route of asking all current content creators to create shorts and have the main guy in charge of ig and tiktok introduce them and then them show off content(which would be a lot easier then just one guy) they are gonna do low quality low effort sporadic posting which will make either platform not promote those pages at all and subsequently will only be hidden away. Atleast on yt even older shorts from a few months ago have a chance of showing up if the content you are watching aligns with it but you know they aren't going to do what's actually needed to grow wurm's presence on social media they are just going to do the bare minimum to please us and higher ups(kinda starting to sound like an abusive relationship almost) and hope that that will be fine.

Basically what we are doing already, we have a dns server running locally that has a huge list of blocked domains that we curate from other lists and our own things either fully blocked(like GA is) or specific type of traffic block or allowed for certain devices only and are setup because we honestly are just sick and tired of the quantity of traffic that is send out to tracking services vs actual traffic and tired of being tracked where ever we go. The issue stems from the fact that wurm now apparently will not work unless GA can be reached based on these logs anyway which to me makes me wonder why? Also incase anyone is wondering why we have this in place both my dads job and mine require us to handle a lot of sensitive data of our respective companies that a simple "oh just only do it on a work computer with a vpn" does not cut it and our dns block is but 1 part of the total setup and a requirement from his company so I can't just go "oh ya lets just allow my pc to still access all of that" as a "solution"

Problem resolved was just some port routing issues ❤️ thanks @polarbear

Can't share an account with more then 2 people max not that this seems to be enforced that strictly given the amount of people that still go way beyond the 2 extra people cap

Except the fact his house was on an active kingdom's capital and very few actually had permission to enter the place in the first case or access to the account while the owner was on their break. So it isn't a case of someone random from a different kingdom or freedom breaking in and entering some one persons hut in the middle of a forest but a inside job.

Can we blame it on the summer hat thief? It is right up their alley.

Sorry for the double post but I wanted to keep this separate For Wurm TV can we please also start using youtube shorts for the same video's that get uploaded to IG and tiktok? Tiktok I can kinda understand but IG is not really used for gaming related stuff like that and people typically follow gaming brands for merch and events and so on and follow the same companies yt for actual game related stuff so the fact that youtube has been left out of all of this is just bad and shows a clear lack of understanding of the culture of gamers as a whole. So please do expand to youtube as well so that you can reach a broader audience and hopefully draw in more people from there and do it on a official yt channel for wurm not some personal channel of someone.

Check the blurry mess to the left of it as well and yes with bridges we can mimic it but not properly which again people will nitpick about and be vocal about. On the website itself you can not tell if it is a strap or on its back and a person is not going to bother doing a 10x zoom thing to try and figure out if its a strap or not and they will assume that he is carrying that axe on his back. When including the fortifications it most def is way more vague and painted like then it would be and also way higher detailed ground As for that combat? No pvp combat will ever be like that in wurm due to how wurm pvp functions half those people would be dead within seconds the other half yelled at for being off god knows where doing god knows what but thats really besides the point, the picture as a whole portrays something that just wont happen in the game. You are telling me you can not see the obviously more yellow sun lighting the overall better lighting that the ai applies and the better shadows it comes up with? The better reflections of light hitting polished wood, the sharp reflections in the water all things that currently are not a thing either some are in the works or are just not going to happen at all. The mines fill up with a neatly stacked pile of shards not stacks of stone that can obstruct a players movement as the picture implies, and yes that is the thing to get the desired effect one would have to use WU a unsupported version of the game and not what the wurm ONLINE website is about Your words exactly they CAN be implemented but they aren't and even the dragon skin for the staff is no where near as detailed as just the grapes are on their own, to you these things clearly don't seem to matter as you are fine with showing fake stuff but to many players wurm's graphics being upped from a clearly ancient state to a mixture of last and current gen via ai enhancements would be seen as faking it. And that brings me back to the point of we are trying to attract new players to the game so showing them fake images that are not representative of the games actual quality will make players leave, you might say "oh why would they" well simple a LOT of people dont want to play the game because it looks too old and shitty they might like the style of gameplay but the graphics put them off. And in a time of baldur's gate 3 and starfield(hate on the game but its strong suits are strong) and cyberpunk's latest dlc and plenty of beautiful looking indi games being made by 1-2 man teams all of these games stick to what they actually look like for their ingame footage trailers and screenshots on every store front(the website is one) where as the games that are using ai generated content get laughed at and people refuse to support those projects. I want the game to grow for years the biggest holdback to this games growth is half assed decisions across the board from current and ex staff volunteer and paid alike missed opportunities and thrown away chances and this "redesign" of the website was once again just yet another such missed opportunity this time by the owners before once again the content that gets used being ai focused as if there is a boner for ai when it comes to this site. I love your originals though and I really do wish that they were used instead if gcg has such a big issue with wurm's old graphics being an issue and thus wanting to use ai to hide that fact then maybe they should invest money into a actual developer for the website and not some random who uses chatgpt to create and update its sites while over charging and content that gets added by staff/community should not be ai generated or "enhanced" as the defects in a lot of those places or the fakeness of it all is glaring and will push people away. It doesn't matter of can be's or would have been possible scenario's a game should show of what it currently has to offer to players not fake information as that is just a let down but sadly that is a reoccurring theme with this whole website and ai enhanced screenshots just dont belong there. But hey they will most likely stay for months then some dev gets told "post these pictures on the steam store front they look great and way better then our old ones" and suddenly the listing gets taken down and then suddenly there is a push from above to be real and not fake so I guess I will just wait until that happens.

Just Rolf things no real reason behind it +1 for a clarification or +10 for actually removing the silly requirement

Id say no to the idea of maintaining skills and being locked out of gaining more as prem is lost especially at a time where gcg is having the shenanigans it has but even outside of that no the premium model is there to prevent dlc gating content or a giant microtransaction hellscape As for the topic that people keep bringing up of "oh go sell some rares" or "go mass create items" Yes encourage players with 20 skills and most likely shitty gear still to spend literal HOURS to slave away to collect the wood and turn it into planks or mine for bricks so that they can get the 10s IF there is even one buying, or try your luck at spamming rares for forever on end because 3-4 rares in 6 hours of properly timed actions is engaging gameplay that is worth it for premium right. Once upon a time when wurm had a bigger influx of newer players and people redoing deeds and moving around it made sense the bulk jobs were plentyful like digging dirt for a deed project of someone or helping someone clear out a place or whatever but all of that has dried up and even kingdoms arent really doing it when they can ###### out bricks faster then they can sail to collect them. I wish there was a good way for people with less income to enjoy wurm in a better way but with how the game economy is going and people's overall confidence any suggestion to make it easier on those who struggle to pay wont ever make it past the suggestion forum section sadly enough

It will tell you that you reach a max height and cant mine any more down sadly 9 floors max but max building height is 16 so we are missing quite a few floors on that as well I am currently mining out the mountain i live on while mining from 2 dirt above water and every old mine i mine into i have multiple tiles go down to a max of 400-440ish slope before the next one drops forcing my priest to goatshape to climb up high enough to get to the still flat tiles to collapse them before doing the 2-3 tiles that are really steep that formed after mining to those raised area's The height difference im talking about This no longer creates 1 giant tile it seems atleast it hasnt for the last 3 days of me mining and fixing these old mines that are higher up
