The biggest immersion killer for me in Wurm has been riding my wagon home after a long trip in the rain, getting indoors to my fireplace, only to find that the rain is magical, and can pass through solid roofing. Various people have suggested in the past that weather not fall inside structures, and it was said that it was a challenge to make the change due to various things about the way the code was written. So, I thought of an alternative. Could it be possible so that the client simply stops rendering all weather particle effects (rain, snow) when inside a structure? I don't know about you, but I'd much rather have some falling rain missing while looking out a window, than have rain actually in my house. Then, when you walk outside of a structure, it simple starts to draw them again. Thoughts?

A friend of mine in his first week of wurming decided he needed a chicken coup: Chicken Coop by Ackemi

I just was on the unstable test server and I must say, the game looks amazing over there. I know a lot of it is just being tested and it may not all make it into the actual game...but there is quite a big difference in my opinion on how the game looks, and I love it. Here is a screen shot that I took... You should try out the unstable test client if you are interested in checking out all the upcoming changes!! It looks wonderful!

This is actually quite clever and cute!

So im rolling along thru the southern desert, and what is that i see over a small mound of sand, it looks like the top of a pile of items! From what i can tell someone died out there and lost a significant amount of shiny stuff. Without going into details i roughly found: 1x Supreme tool 3x Rare tools A set of WOA Horse Shoes A set of slightly damaged medium q studded, with med AOSP. and about 10 other misc tools. Unfortunately it looks like most of the tools were purchased i could not find a consistent creator among any of the gear for clues to ownership. If you believe this is your gear send me a FORUM MESSAGE with a list of the tools mentioned and ill gladly return them. For now there all safely tucked away. It was very likely in the last few days, its a fairly traveled area, also if anyone happens to have seen the corpse earlier could maybe PM me a name?

Hi folks, Sorry, but there will be no update to the map this week. We are on vacation in RL (touring in the USA waiting to catch the total eclipse occurring on Monday Aug 21). The next update will be done for August 28. We appreciate your patience while we are taking this short vacation. Skyefox and Hughmongus Cartographers of Indy Co-Administrators - The Albia Roads Map of Indy

34 crate racks made and full.. 2 warehouse. omg i got so much room for more stuff...

simple enough.. I'm happy to wait if it's on the roadmap, this is more a request than a suggestion. Could we (shoud we?) upgrade low stone walls and curbs to the new textures? pretty please thank you.

Maybe we could try to move all the general programming discussion away from this thread and return to the original topic?

easter bunnies too.

As title says... they could only grow in sand

lol appreciate the positive feedback, now if only the owner would contact me instead of ppl trying to get lucky with a bogus list on obvious fake forum accounts....

So I have the best affinity ever, and it is toys. I've spent a lot of time playing with my yoyo (that's definitely not innuendo), and with my puppets even though it's completely pointless to do so. Aside from getting titles, there is nothing to gain from using toys, so it would be great if we could potentially get rare chances when using toys (for all 3 people on Wurm that use toys). And Vynora does like yoyos, so maybe she would send me some tips for doing some cool yoyo tricks for her This is probably my first and last suggestion since everyone will just tell me to stop playing with toys and grow up, but I still feel that making an occasional copper coin from puppet shows and yoyo tricks would be awesome.

So, I was planning on trying to pave a courtyard, and wanted to incorporate the "Triforce", from the Zelda games into the courtyard, and was curious if anyone knows if it's possible with our current "pave corner" option to make it work, I'm not concerned about the size, just if it's possible at all. Here's a picture for a point of reference, especially for those that haven't played the games

We now have rendered versions of house walls and stone fences. Unfortunately a rendered version of the "low stone wall" seems to be missing. It would be good to have that too. Please add "rendered low stone wall".

I will take a look at them soon - could I just ask for screenshots of single banner of each of these PMK's please? I will deduce everything else from there. Small heads up - starting with next version, DeedPlanner will use Google Analytics to collect the usage data - this feature will be on all the time, but before first launch after this version release you will be shown information message about that asking if you want to use the program despite of that or not. All data will be sent anonymously, only things that are important for program development will be sent - most personal of them being your system and graphics card data, everything else being related to usage of program itself and its configuration. Why do I want to collect it? Currently I have no way at all to monitor how the program is used, so I can only decide on development priorities based on user feedback in this thread/private messages and my own initiative - both aren't most reliable to see the big picture.

Well, to me it seems like a big difference in a good way. That says a lot since I am usually the last person to notice these sorts of things. Keep up the great work!!

yes, +1 I have a lot of red brick curbs in RL and they look great In fact, I'd like to suggest brick style curbs for all the stone types too. I've never used stone curbs in this game, because I just don't like the look very much.

please add Forsaken y10 x43

Wow-ah-wee-wah! You guys! I never ever noticed the hidden teasers! Gonna have to start paying more attention from now on! Retro you smart cookie!

Thanks Ondar. I thought it might be more with all the crops.

Direct link to page: https://www.wurmpedia.com/index.php/Animal_husbandry Since wool now drops into your inventory after shearing sheep/rams, the part on the Animal Husbandry page (Shearing) where it says: "Wool bundles drop to ground, not to your inventory" can be updated. Maybe to read: "Wool bundles drop to your inventory." Or, "Wool gathers in your inventory." Or, "OMG! Where the heck is my Wool!" Anyways, After all this time since the update, I just recently stopped looking on the ground for newly sheared wool bundles. So.. I guess it's about time the Animal Husbandry page can be finally updated. Thanks :-)

Hello there, welcome back neighbour! I dunno that he is actively used, I have never seen him active on the servers I have been on.

I started using the unstable client a few days ago and I love it. I also loved the fact that I had zero lag or disconnects at the unique fights today on high settings on my laptop. I'm hooked.

In love with electro swing, hoping at least 1 person here enjoys it as well

I think with the release of the new highway system, if the lamp is on the "protected" highway and blessed, it should not take damage.

Currently on PvE servers domain is just a pain, it adds little to no benefit and can be a point of contention among neighbours... So perhaps add in some extra effects based on the strength of a domain; some examples being: Increased flower spawns in fo domains (Low power) Boost to forage/botanise tile recovery in fo domains (Moderate power) Chance for enchanted grass to avoid decay tick in fo domains (High power) Mushrooms spawning underground in mag/lib domains (Low power) Higher chance of salt veins in mag/lib domains (Moderate power) Erupted tiles remaining erupted in mag/lib domains (High power) Higher chance for rare fish to crop up in vyn domains (Low power) Water sources having increased radius in vyn domains (Moderate power) Higher chance of mining a source crystal in vyn domains (High power) The notion is to give these effects a threshold based on domain power; the more beneficial the effect the stronger the domain required. The above ideas are just suggestions, no doubt the devs can tweak and modify things.

you should all be punished for saying the forsaken word

already in game

It is not a common hour when someone stumbles upon this and then reacts the noble way in which you have. You are to be celebrated. This recharges my battery some. May you find the owner, and should that no prevail, you've then earned a no guilt amass of some decent things.

will more than likely be asleep/getting rdy for bed when this auction ends. Please send me Deed Name/coord/server/time+timezone you would like it to be delivered. I am on CDT time which is 10:48pm at the time of posting so please keep that in consideration. PM sent to wurmhole.

I +1 this, and please make parrots repeat random lines of text in local

Mouse wheel to select is another option I had not thought of. I tried to think of a way to choose the action without needing a menu of any kind appearing to break immersion but I couldn't think of another way to provide feedback to the player on what they had selected.

Specialties would be cool. Make it like a Priest or a Meditation path. Can specialize in one at a time and start from 0 if want to switch. Maybe introduce a new oar that only a specialist and make or imp using that material. Not for PvP though. That would make it unbalanced.

Love the lighthouse Baloo! So yesterday I harnessed dragon power to help me build a new SW Mountain pass on Celebration.

Hooray from crate racks!!! I went from to to finally!

Going to try to make it look as pretty as possible Lots of very messy broken cobble roads in the area. Will remove them and replace with nice slate trail that will follow the terrain of the land. Also the tunnel is looking good! Even got a dragon to help us mine out a zinc vein that was in the way. That's the West exit of the Hidaway Tunnel before we made any changes to it. Will show a picture of it finished once it's paved but the entrance is now 2 wide with a nice road leading up to it. Tunnel is 2 wide, all reinforced, lights put in, flat and prepared for the paving to go down to match the highway Friendly dragon helping to mine out the Zinc vein <3

Psch, what sort of god name is 'Gary'? Seriously, the system is broken if it allows names like that! We should immediately scrap player gods because having gods with names that sound normal is just offensive. I mean, seriously, you can't even make an amusing nickname with this! Outraged. Why won't anyone think of the children? Grats, Gary!

The only thing in abundance are the moonmetals and it's all from exploits or certain kingdoms holding dominance for long periods of time or both. I would hazard a guess that Freedom got just as much moonmetal as Epic did, they never like to be left out, the only difference is theres alot more people on Freedom so it seems more sparse because it's divided up more. Things like drake and scale are far from abundant on Epic. If you compare the mechanics of Freedom of old where scale and drake and all the unique resets over the years, definitely could say it grew on trees. Epic on the other hand used the new mechanics where very small amounts where dropped per kill, compared to the old mechanics where upto like 9 scales could drop per kill and each one was like 1.5 sets a scale, I can't remember exactly but it was a lot. This is all irrelevant too, the site clearly says I am encouraged to sell my stuff once I am done with it and that is not possible because no one wants to play. I can use the same logic in any other server.. Freedom is about survival, player vs the environment, yet it's economy in the sense of player to player trading and real world money is fine simply because it's the primary focus of devs attention and if they broke freedom like they did Epic, then Wurm truly would be over for all servers as Freedom is where the money comes from. My point is we are all players and clearly aren't all being treated equally or being held in the same regard. I would like to sell off my account and its items as is my right according to Wurm and they encourage me to do so, but I can't because it's locked to a dead server and no one wants to play there anymore making my time and effort invested worthless which in my opinion goes against the way they say the game economy should operate.

Karma - Angelklaine Hi Everyone! A surprise in this weeks news with a long suggested and requested addition finally coming, and that's not all, we'll recap what's been going on this week as well! But first... Patch Notes A crate surprise With the launch of 1.3 we introduced several new storage options with the barrel and wine barrel rack, the planter rack, and the amphora rack. Today we tease a new rack coming, one that's been asked about for a while now, the crate rack! The crate rack will hold 30 large crates and a whopping 50 small, stockpiling just got a whole lot easier! Highway testing We've had a few races this week using the new highway routing system which is a lot of fun and really easy to follow. We'll be continuing to hold random events with a little notice, but we also encourage you to jump on and try it all for yourself. It's a huge system with a lot of possible uses so make sure you spend the time learning it! For testing and a guide check out this thread here: Midsummers event all wrapped up! I'd like to thank you all for attending the Midsummers event and providing your feedback. It was a lot of fun and I've learned some valuable lessons for future events (not so long!) We have some more events planned in the future, so stay tuned for those. Unstable client! The unstable client is extremely close to going stable and replacing the existing one, so it's incredibly important that you try it and report ANY issues you have with it. if you have bad performance, crashes, anything that could hinder your play compared to the stable client it's incredibly important that you do report these before it goes live as the stable client. Failure to do so may impact your play if any issues arise from the use of the unstable client and we definitely do not want that to happen! The unstable client link can be found here: http://www.wurmonline.com/client/wurmclient_unstable.jnlp Community Content - Tapestry comp There's been some amazing submissions to the tapestry competition, (I'm torn between so many!) I thoroughly advise taking the time to look through them. I may have to nag Saroman about more than one winner... Not only are we working on the highway system, work continues on the valrei overhaul, the creature movement changes and the new skill coming to the game. There's a lot in the works, and I'm keen to share all the information on them as they near completion. Until then though, keep on Wurming! Retrograde & the Wurm team.

There are now more gods on epic than regular players? But grats to Gary.

I'll speak with the devs about whether thats an xsolla issue or ours.

The only thing you have to look out for in Crusaders is when McLovin tries to drop his mix tape on you.

I came for a visit to see what it was like..despite many negative opinions..I have been hit by catapault shards, killed because i went afk without armor on,I jumped up and down when I finally got to hit someone with an arrow and then a maul..I climbed what seemed to be impossible walls, did a body bounce down walls,choked up as my favorite horse got killed...and I love it . Its an adventure every day and a lot of work. My only regret I didnt join sooner.

2 of our more newer pvper's (TheShawv and Subie) already earned/gained their drake! Come get yours

The White turtle castle - Gofs (Picture by Evening) Hi everyone! Another week down, and we've been hard at work! Want to know what? Just read on! But first... Patch Notes WU update The beta version of the next WU update will be coming early next week, with everything up to yesterdays update going into it, this means the new bushes and almanac features will be coming, with the new bridge textures and features coming in the next update. Combat log updates With the next update we'll have a big change to how the combat log works, with the addition of more colours to differentiate different actions and also your relation to the other parties of the fight! Not only this, but these colours can be set by using the text colours of the client as shown This means that you'll be able to customise your combat log to suit your personal preferences, and keep your eye on the fight that much better! Creature combat improvements Work has begun on improving creature combat, and first off the rank is the Uttacha! These combat improvements will be coming to Epic in the next update, if you want to find out what the new moves are, you'll have to wait and see for yourselves! Map Dumps Just over six months ago we released the last map dumps, and I'm pleased to say new ones are in the works! We don't have a release yet, but they may come in with the new highway system being launched, so keep your eyes peeled! Paving on bridges Final touches with the big changes to bridges are in the works, with underground bridges and the paving under testing and tweaking, I'm super keen to see this come, and can't even begin to imagine all the plans you have currently going on, I want to see them all! Midsummer fun Midsummers is a big tradition in Sweden, and we've got a special event planned for it! On the weekend of the 24th of June we'll be launching an event on Xanadu, with a unique prize for completing it. What is the prize? You'll just have to wait and see... Factional fight is back! I'm thrilled to see the Factional Fight guys back in action, with their awesome new introduction. Anyone not familiar with their videos will HAVE to spend the next few days brushing up on them all, they've been companions to many a wurmians grinding days, and I can imagine we're all keen on seeing their new video next week! That's it for this week, I look forward to sharing more with you all next time, but until then though, keep on Wurming! Retrograde & the Wurm team

Moonlight Shadows -> x: 30 y:45 We also have a mailbox that we would like to be added on the map by our deed as well
