I don't think its fair that the map was allowed to be damaged twice by items that were not supposed to be used on Chaos, please either revert the damage caused and remove these pools of moonmetal or make it so that the items are available again and its not just another window of opportunity. As there was no discussion about allowing our map to be destroyed by these items, the damage caused whilst they were temporarily available should be reverted. #RemovetheVandalism Edit: Added Poll

HotA is an intended feature of Chaos. The volcanoes are not, this is the majority difference.

Should take Sorcery away as a whole. All or nothing, both ways.

Ok, I don't think this is going to go anywhere good. *Click*

You want access to moonmetals then fight for it in game not on the forums.

bump, i'd like to thank everyone again who donated, without all of you guys its very likely gabriel wouldn't gave gotten his surgery. the other day he returned home after staying at the vet for a while to make sure the surgery went well

Hello, my name is Lars. I'm an intern here at Code Club AB. Nice to meet you all! As part of the interview that's about to go up with Wurm's Art Director Emil "Wox" Norrman, Emil was kind enough to make a comprehensive break-down of his work-process. The showcase is the 'Game Master Dark'-model, which he used to scare the crap out of me when I first jumped into Wurm. You can find it here! zip file with pdf version

The server is 16,777,216 tiles on chaos The volcanoes take up roughly 2874 tiles each so that is roughly 5654 tiles that are not in your domain, area, or territory. They are basically scenic areas that are within Mol Rehan kingdoms 'area of influence.' That is roughly 0.03% of the server that these Volcano's occupy and if you feel horribly offended by their location or creation then please avoid the area or lands. By your definition any area that disrupts natural landscape is an offense as the only valid judgment then alot of cities occupy more land than either volcano or the combined area. The Capital city of House of Mol-Rehan is 40,401 tiles and what is the current size of each capital? Should we limit players or kingdoms to a limited number of tiles they can change? If i wanted to I can created a "TRUE" Volcano that is twice the size than both of these with enough dirt and some Power paths to get the Lava flow. Should that be deemed illegal cause you feel it threatens your existence on chaos?

Hey maybe if you don't want epic items on chaos, you can get rid of your EPIC tomes a well hmm, hmm?

These volcanos are silly and were never supposed to be on chaos - thus the abilities are no longer available for people to use here now. The fact they have been removed must symbolise that it was a bug to include them on the server in the first place - In which case the developers should clean up two MASSIVE bugs sitting on the map. My main problem with the volcanos is the fact a huge chunk of it is underwater which will kill anybody who's not aware that it is there. You are likely to sail over 2-3 tiles (or more if the wind is crazy) before you notice you're dying, then trying to turn back - it's suicide.

There's a reason you typically see experienced players organizing a dragon slaying, there's more to it than just getting critical mass and whacking at it. Xallo knows what he's doing and we had a pretty reasonable group for the white on Exodus, just about the easiest dragon there is, and we wiped. We came right back and killed it but the first attempt was a bit of a fiasco. (sorry Xallo ) I get the desire to come up with new novel ways to distribute loot, that's great but it is going to require more organization than this unless you just want to see the largest PvE wipe in Wurm history which I'd absolutely be down to watch (watch not participate in). The time and energy expended is exactly why experienced organizers pay themselves/team in Valrei drops. They organize a *successful* kill that gives everyone there blood and a title (title bugs not withstanding) in exchange for the drop. Anyway good luck. If this actually works and you kill a champ plus wipe out 50+ folks it will go down in history so there's that. And to clarify I really do hope you get a large crowd and manage to kill it, just skeptical.

doesnt matter on epic cause it doesnt leave its chest

Nothing is more frustrating (well, I can think of other things, but....) than creating an altar that cannot be moved from the stupid place it dropped. I suggest allowing altars to be pushed and pulled within the tile they are created on. This would allow fine-tuning of the position of the altar but still prevent it from being pushed off the tile. To be clear, allow the altar to be positioned using push/pull but only on the tile it is dropped onto when created. Discuss.

Could we expand Discard to be able to use on everything? I wouldn't have to leave furs and pelts all over the place when I'm hunting. Would also make cleaning up areas easier.

So.... We are supposed to talk about GV chars in the epic cluster market? Wat.

ok so honestly, I had no idea were these volcanoes were as I have yet to see them, No, looking at their locations what the hell are ccycou ccrying ccaccbout? You will never see the one south of HOM unless you actually try to raid something... which you wont that far into MR lands anyway. The other location is kinda in the way for traveling from server to server. However, with the MR presence int he area, you are at far more risk getting killed by a player before you get close to the thing anyway. So this is absolutly NOT about ruining your view but instead about the metal. Personally, I think its more about reverting your deed than anything and you thought by crying that its a pockmark on our beautiful map you might gain followers. If you don't like the looks of our volcanoes then don't come into our lands. If its about the metal... here's a thought... GO WIN A HOTA!

Everyone who is claiming to be offended by these cause they damaged the map, you're just jealous because we've an additional supply of adamantite. I agree that they're ugly. They destroy the map. But they're there now. The areas they're in barely affect anyone. If anything, they affect the people who live close by. If you want your share of adamantite - go there. The craters are not deeded, neither are the surroundings. Nobody is watching the 300x300 area around them 24/7 either. Take your chance or don't. It's just the same as with HOTA, you either attempt it or you don't. The Volcnoes are even more random, since you never know when they spawn boulders. So take your chance, go there, search for boulders. Or again: Don't.

I don't think it has as much to do with the damage to map, more like 1 kingdom abused a bug and now they get free moon metals almost daily next to their capital and war deed.

Hey there, So apparently Rite of Spring cast is available for Independence server again. To give people enough time for travel and burning their sleep-bonus, I like to announce the casting for next Sunday at around 9 p.m. (CEST - central european summer time) [or is it standard?] - anyways here is your timer: The casting will be happening at Silent Hill, favor will be supplied and anybody wanting to help with the fun is welcome. - with some luck we can sneak in a few sermons too for people lacking faith - hehe. We haven't decided who will do the casting yet, but with Smilingcat, Jekkumage and Wega we have some hope of succeding. - If you really think that you are more able than one of us, come along and we ll haggle out something (no we wont, or will we?) Cheers and have fun, Fritz

Just like the topic states. Male characters do the neat cross legged animation, but females just stand there. To reproduce bug, watch a female meditate on a rug.

As a long term Wild/Chaos player, I'm appalled that someone was allowed to vandalize the oldest map in the game with something that shouldn't have even been in this cluster. +1

+1 Volcanos were supposed to be in elevation only. Why should one kingdom that planted one Volcano at Kratos and one at Ravenholm have the right to farm moonmetals for free just because they used the bug before it gets fixed?

A tomato is a fruit, not a vegetable. I grew up with farmers and I know the difference. And while tortoises and turtles are of the same family, they are not the same thing. I even know the difference between a terrapin and a tortoise, do you?

the more the merrier. and a final bump. maybe i should hand out some fine mallets, so non-priests can shatter things for good luck too.

It would also be good to get a date, a place, and to know that someone whom actually has experience in this sort of thing is in charge as well Who is supplying the sheets needed for saccing, and vesseled gems? Do you even know how AOE healing works? Are you aware that this dragon can hit 84 damage wounds through 92ql studded? Personally I dont see you as a trustworthy enough person to lead nor a knowlegable enough player Anyways GL

Ehemm ... this is on OUR deed, and WE have been dealing with that little terror since days, I don't think you have seen the dragon yourself at all. much less trying to survive his daily visits. The screenshot you posted came from Z, and was made from the top of our house ... so nice of you to ask us really ... /sarcasm Anyways if ppl gather, we can supply some cotton, and there are 3 altars on the deed, one for each god. There are 2 piers to moor the ships, and also we have some horses if anybody needs one. Edit: I'm not paying anybody anything .. that's all on Hashirama

Interesting concept but I have a few questions/comments: All you have to do is land a hit? and as soon as you land one hit you can get the same reward as someone that lands 50? a bit much on the priests, dont you think? Some meet point/start location would be nice, as well with a timer The auctioning part should be done by someone that is good at selling and is trustworthy someone needs to be next to the dragon but not fight (trustworthy) so we can get a complete battlelog without the possiblity of losing logs if the person is thrown away How will you send us silvers, through mail? who pays the COD? what if we get 30c each and 20c is COD?

im the voldemort lols

I'll look into it!

I'd like to know , if Rolf could narrow down a motivating factor in how or why Wurm online was conceived, what that was. I'd also like to know , going forward, what is his biggest driving passion about and for Wurm. side note. My first Born Foal on Xanadu has the name of Rolfrain. will he take on duties as godfather at it's christening and bestow gifts upon it regularly. hehhehe. it is strong willed,can change direction faster than a quarter horse, and has affinity in gaming(horseplay)

Thank you Lars. Your work for the Comunitie strengthens the bond between us and the wurm team. Very nice job and a cool interview! The dark GM model is very awesome, great work wox

Really? Xsyon? Darkfall? Ring any bells? Everything else is either still in early beta or vaporware. Hell even Rust's Devs have completely scrapped their codebase. Apparently they were trying to use the same codebase for two different games at once... seriously bad move. As they discovered it became an overwhelming mess. And Im talking true sandboxes superior to Wurm; although, Eve Online despite being based on a scifi genre, comes pretty close. Unfortunately they still haven't shaken off pre-generated recursive fetch-this-kill-that questing. Only thing Im aware of that even comes close (besides Minecraft) is possibly Sony's Everquest project, and the Landmark component is looking more along the lines an intricate modelling game (if it can be called a game persay). EDIT: Unfortunately getting offtrack from the OP... again given Rolf's previous statements and tendencies, its extremely unlikely anything making priests "easier" is going to make it in. Maybe something along the lines Gaeron has mentioned, since there has been limited changes to what each priest type can do. While still keeping everyone and his dog from being a priest. If a priest can do everything a normal char can do plus the additional abilities... why should everyone not be a priest?

Thanks! As metal-fan myself, I have anecdotal evidence that a lot of metal heads are also infact huge nerds. There's also alot of us in Sweden - you can't throw a boomerang in a crowded town-square without hitting at least 2 of us. Haha, I won't get that specific in this interview since it's mostly supposed to revolve about the individual. I'll try to get the "immediate plans"-question in there though. Sure they can! Just be sure to add "the minion" when you talk about me. "Apparently there's a movement amongst the paying playerbase to get me an extremely lucrative job here at CC... they say they will stop at nothing to get their wish, and that "virtual villages will burn" and that there will be "riots in the cobblestone-streets". Also it seems they would be really bummed out. So how about it? :D" Genius! I'll definitely ask him this.

Say NO To Smoking Turtles...

I'm sure this has been suggested before, but I don't think it's ever made it to its own thread. There needs to be a server strictly for hunting. Currently, the main Freedom cluster has hardly any hunting. I've traveled around everywhere on all four servers, and the hunting was great when they first opened. After people start breeding and collecting aggressive such as hell horses, the hunting has gone down. What hunting there is, Spirit Templars usually kill them. What I propose is a strictly hunting only server East of Independence, sailable by boat. Building, breeding, and penning of animals would not be allowed. There would be no deeds, guard towers, or Spirit Templars. The server should remain PvP-free simply for the fact that I know that Freedom players would enjoy hunting on it as well. After such a server would be implemented, it should solve a lot of problems for people who can't find decent hunting to get their Fighting and Weapon skills up. It would also add value to larger boats as you could transport a mass quantity of meats, hides, and pelts. It would open up a new trade window for people who want to supply bulk meats and other animal produce, which is only a GOOD thing for the economy. The size of such a server shouldn't be too big, perhaps GV sized 1024, or 2048. Items can be crossed between the servers, and perhaps some unique, non-game breaking items could be found on the server for hunters to collect. The animals would be more difficult, and would be a lot more prominent. Horses would be abundant so you could bring some gear to ride on them with. A few ideas that could be implemented along with this server would include: Sleeping Bag (Non-Repairable) - Cloth Tailoring Implemented! 2 Furs 2 Sheets 10 Strings of Cloth --- Offers 1/3 Sleep Bonus compared to a bed --- 5 Minute logout timer Tents (Non-Repairable) - Leatherworking Implemented! 5 Shafts 4 Leather (3kg each) 10 Wires 2 Sleeping Bags --- Offers 1/2 Sleep Bonus compared to a bed --- 5 Minute logout timer Ivory Ivory has a number of functions, but mostly decorational, which wouldn't be game breaking at all. What could be made from Ivory includes Horned Helmets, Ivory Musical Horns, Drinking Horns, and other decorational Ivory items. Unique Respawns Uniques could occasionally respawn here with no messages. This means that each new server that is added wouldn't be plagued with people who only join the server to kill the uniques. The uniques that spawn from new servers would randomly spawn here every couple of weeks after the newest servers are added. Stronger Animals This server could showcase animals far stronger than the typical animals on the other servers. Unique creatures such as the God's animals (Avatars) could respawn here, aggressive, and perhaps would drop loot such as 50-60QL weaponry (not high QL, but mostly trophy material). A server like this could be used to test stronger animals before implemented to mainstream servers, and perhaps one day Rolf could test smarter animal AI, such as troll and goblin outposts, or even NPC strongholds. Item Fixes Branches - Make Kindling out of them Implemented! I don't really see a downside to this, and a server such as this would have the least strain out of any other server as there would be no buildings or deeds. I'd like to see people's thoughts on an idea such as this.

Yep, nearly every day I say "Gah, why can't I freaking plant my sapling the same way I do farms???"

Yeah, on second thought. I think this would be a much better event if someone better prepared to organize this handled it. I've heard hashirama is an unpopular player as well. What those reasons are I can't say, but all of this seems thrown together very quickly, as if to prevent the ones who found it from doing anything with it. Also, the loot system leaves a lot to be desired. You're asking people to travel in some cases 6+ hours one way to have a chance at 1s to lets say, 15s maximum over estimate price. That isn't counting the time to organize when everyone arrives, and for the fight to happen. Also, what about all the favor that will be required for priests to cast? Will you be providing it? Do they need to bring their own? Why would they since they won't be able to land a hit themselves in most cases? How / when will the auctions be handled, how will the coin be distributed, and by who? This system is asking for a ton of trust, and while I know many people i'd trust with this in wurm, I can't say you are one of them, just from lack of knowing you made worse by rumors of a bad reputation behind you. I'd recommend a list of fighters, 30 70+ FS, 50+ 2h weapon skill. 70ql+ weapon's required. Have a sign up, make a list.. first 30 are guaranteed a shot at loot, have another 10 as reserves in case there are no-shows. Anyone else involved gets some blood. In my experience, getting the fo's for healing, and the mag's for smite is easily done through the fighters signed up, but if not add one of each on top for a chance at loot. Same goes for butcher.. generally one of the fighters will have very high butchering skill, if not though add them on a chance for loot too.

Different people on the wurm team have different jobs. I doubt his is fixing bugs. Each team member does not do everything.

I may have been me that lured someone to do changes on it when I messed around with the model, sorry

Please make it so we can cut grass on tree tiles to lawn length.

lets get this over with shall we. Buyout

Cool game, going to play on it here in just a bit to check out all your work. Yeah its very fast getting stuff in, configured and up and running. The asset store is interesting, but luckily I have an artist, he is just a traditional artist, so, is just learning blender. While he is learning it Im going to be doing some of the smaller art jobs and probably using a lot of placeholders so I can start coding stuff. Also have a Java back end lady who will be handling server side. So I guess that leaves me as everything else till they get up to speed. We'll be working out workflows,models, art and design till Unity 5 is released and Atavism gets a bit more polished. The endless terrain is something Atavism has built in to thier system(although I don't think we will be using it. IIRC its the default and last I read they were adding in a way to set size limits)..so im hoping that system will save us a lot of time and effort and we can just concentrate on building the game and modifying the back end only where we need to and not having to build it from scratch. Edit - took me a bit to find this one as its buried a bit, but it shows the infinite terrain stuff. Maybe it can be adapted to what your doing fairly readily and may be worth a look. I am assuming since Unity will be the client and its going to have a 64 bit editor...that Atavism will follow suit. They may already have and I just missed it somewhere. [media]http://youtu.be/FxqF3BfoLGQ and another one on infinite terrain [media]http://youtu.be/tXspwqpr6KQ Unity 5 is doing a 64 bit editor...so hopefully that should take care of most 64bit issues. Also looks like cross platform is getting some love as well. So if those are the big issues, looks like Unity 5 will be at least somewhat addressing them. Guess well see when it comes out.
