Spring has sprung at Southport U18 Deliverance. I think the floral displays at the market are blooming lovely:

You absolutely can still amount to something. Here's the trick: Don't be a person who needs to be THE best at something. Be cool, don't be the kind of person who fearmongers alt use or some doomsayer of every possible thing that's done to the game. Do things at your own pace and own leasure. If you hit the game too hard, you'll fizzle out. My account isn't special at all. It's not even impressive in the slighest. Yet people still think I'm some high skill player or some people know who I am. If you can be a good person, if you can help others when you can, no matter how big or small the task, you'll get far in the game. Be part of the playerbase that helps others and doesn't just talk utter trash, and you will go far.

I swear there was an unicorn there, just before I looked! >.>

Is there any beta/preview of the new gui? Also are there any plans for that if currently nothing is available to see or try?

Winter is gone, but the Snowman Revival continues at the Vynora altar ... HD version 😉 TeeeBOMB screenies.

We have wild cats. They're awesome. Their tiny balls of fluff and rage. But they have to stay caged because they're wild. Then there are the dogs. They're nice, but if you tame them, they sit perfectly still and do nothing fun. I want domesticated cats. I want to get annoyed by them knocking objects off of tables but instantly forgive them because they're adorable. Dogs roaming around and curling up in front of random fireplaces would be cool too. So, here's the idea: Domesticated Dog - Created by branding and taming (25 skill required) a dog. The dog is connected to the deed and will wander no farther than the perimeter. It can freely go through doors and gates on deed unless locked to prevent passage. Every 18 hours the owner can send dog hunting with a small chance to return with a large rat, pig, or wild boar. Domesticated Cat - Created by branding and taming (50 skill required) a wild cat. The cat is then connected to the deed and will wander no more than 5 tiles from the deed, but has free reign to go through doors and slip through gates. Every 18 hours the owner can send the cat hunting with a chance to return with a hen, rooster, or pheasant. Special feeding dishes are made with pottery that reduce decay of pet food placed inside (chopped meat or pet food). Pet food (mostly meat) recipe is added to the cookbook. Pet Bed - Tailoring 30 - creates a bed that pets will return to regularly.

-------------------------------------------- December 1st, 2019 to June 27, 2020 Short term server for players who get bored easily. 🙂 -------------------------------------------- BE AWESOME – During June, the final month of Lyra, new players will start with skills and characteristics at 50. New or returning players may arrange to be online at the same time as me to have all your skills boosted to 100, plus receive 100 gold. Why are we doing this for a server that ends so soon? Because we want to give players an opportunity to try things that they normally don’t have the skills or coin to do. Find out how to use spells, try your hand at sorcery, alchemy, or archaeology. Have fun! -------------------------------------------- Lyra is a slow-paced server with minimal mods, minimal (but strict) rules, and minimal tolerance for griefing or littering. If you are a mature, non-competitive player looking to build in a cooperative environment without GM help for anything besides server glitches, this might be a good place for you. This is NOT the right server for you if you: - aren't willing (or able) to follow our few rules at all times - think freedom of speech includes a right to alienate or abuse others - believe that it's better to ask forgiveness later than to ask permission first ---------------------------------------------------------------- Game chat via Discord (link on our website: LyraWU.enjin.com) Game Settings: 1x skill gain / 2x action timers Characteristics begin at 22. You will be able to ride a horse, but you'll have to work to be able to load a cart. All skills start at 1.0, except Fighting at 10.0 Custom 4096 map, 50,000 creatures, 40% aggressive. These figures may change as gameplay progresses and there are more ways to escape. DEEDS: vanilla Wurm settings to found a deed. This means you need 4s 21c to found a deed, which includes cost of the tiles and 3s toward upkeep. However, once you pay this, you will not be charged any further upkeep. See Wurmpedia for more info: https://www.wurmpedia.com/index.php/Settlement#Founding Bounties are set at default rate, making trolls 10 copper and rats 2 copper. Using steel & flint to burn any corpse gets you another 2 copper. Crops tick every 6 hours, and won't rot if you leave them. Players can farm a 3x3 section with one action at 30 Farming, 5x5 at 50 Farming, and 7x7 at 70 Farming. No priest restrictions. Faith gains every 20 minutes, limit of 5 gains per day. All spells available to all priests of sufficient skill level. White light gods only, no Libila. The black light is there just for navigation purposes. Meditation skill gains every 30 minutes, limit of 5 gains per day, with no "fail to relax," but you will have to move each time. Lyra village is being built by players - the public mine, as well as any public cropland or shelters. In addition, any player is welcome to claim (by fencing) a 3x5 plot within Lyra village, on which you can make a house, crops, animal pens, or whatever you find most useful. One plot per Steam ID/actual person. Your alts can share with you. When you leave town to deed, you may keep your plot as your town home, or turn permissions over to another player (or to Batta, to give to someone).

I fooled around today with a few angles to show how truly amazing wurm can look from a third person perspective, so I will raise this suggestion again and share the screenshots with you. According to my view third person view should be an optional setting of course.

The Lunalong Building - Dracaa Greetings Wurmians! Retro here with the hottest of goss, the juiciest of news, the most scandalous of tidbits, aka the Valrei International! But first.. Patch Notes We'd be alright if the wind was(not) in our sails! No sea shanties here, but there is something coming very soon! That's right, the long wanted ability to furl sails and remove windspeed affecting the ships movement. This allows for better control when parking and also makes the docks a little nicer looking in my opinion! In the hall of the mountain farmer Also coming soon is the ability to farm underground! We'll be adding farming boxes for you to plant and grow any crop inside caves. These will be able to be built below ground as well as above ground in buildings. They are not able to be tended however. They don't need sunlight either, but that's wogic for you! UI works One of our goals with the UI update is to add scalability to text to allow for 4k monitors to be a lot easier to read, and with that we're working on allowing UI elements to be resized as you can see below To cut down on clutter within the UI the health/stamina bar will also be compacted, showing CCFP and sleep bonus when moused over Wurm Unlimited news As some have already stated, our focus for Wurm unlimited is shifting from content updates from WO to bug fixes and more modding support. We'll be adding the client modloader to the vanilla WU client which will allow for easier control of mods as well as many other features. We'll be working closely with server admins and modders via the Discord server in providing as much support as we can. While this does mean the end of content updates from us, our goal is to provide as much freedom as possible to the modders to continue to push what is possible in Wurm. Community Content The Lunalong is here! In the amazing underground halls of Kappa on Xanadu, located just near Lormere is the annual Lunalong by Dracaa, it's an amazing deed, with amazing people, and just, gosh, so amazing. There's even a maze...ing This Friday our very own Bloody Drongo will be hosting his annual fashion competition there too, so make sure to get your swimsuit body ready (or harvest one) and attend! There's a lot in the works, and our focus is on making Wurm the best game it can be over the next few months, this includes the loyalty system I have discussed as well as other features including improvements to Animal Husbandry, combat and a bunch of other things yet to hit the table. We're always looking ahead, and it looks great. Until next time, keep on Wurming! Retrograde & the Wurm team

Thanks! New players are always welcome to stop by and have a look.

dude... this is sandbox mmo game, not an mmorpg, where everything is built up already, with tons of different NPCs, and you just have to roam around the places .. You should know the difference between sandbox mmo and mmorpg to start with... its like someone would ask why there is no classical instrumental music in the RnB song... -1, sorry

I'm not the type that totally wants or needs it, it would be a nice to have for me but just cause... Just recently I streamed some Wurm to friends on a discord channel in anticipation for the WO Steam Server cause someone else and me spoke "to much" of it, so they wanted to see some of it.... first question was "show us your character, go third person mode!" ... "uhm... yea.. I can't, here have a look at my paperdoll... or I need to login a second char and stream that window so you can see it." odd giggles and rumoring ensued. If not for gameplay, people just like to see their own char fully sometimes without requiring some odd UI window thats to small for the task or go as far as make an alt just to have a proper look. They were a curious lot, but yea... nowdays it does seem a bit odd to not have such a "feature" I suppose.

bump. i know we had it for a short time but i realised that if it was fluid if, you could mousewheel from 1st to 3rd person.. it's a somewhat paradigm shift but would make the game much more `broadly` appealing and the timing would be good.

Today the randomizer dropped me on Release. Mikehunt responded immediately upon my appearance and had to face 4 Random challenges. #1 How many solar bodies can be viewed from the Jackal sky? Mikehunt guessed 3! WRONG! So much for that hot air balloon sewn from No-Gump skins... into the void with it! #2 How many planks are needed to build a guard tower? Wow... he even got that one wrong... alright then... He can kiss the supreme hammer of ship building goodbye. According to its inscription, it could build a cog in the time it takes to build a raft. With the same materials as a raft! #3 How many walls must you build if you are building a 2x3 tile structure 2 stories tall? Wrong yet again! While this is actually a bit of a trick question with multiple answers.... you must always build at least 1 door. And into the void with the Arrows of Grand Hunting.... yeah, they were just hunting arrows, but they were really good hunting arrows! I mean like top quality one hit kill arrows! #4 Gojira's Cousins! Round 1 - Kamacuras! x8 (not even a scratch) 1/0 Round 2 - Dorats! x12 (well... at least it was a scratch) 2/0 Round 3 - Kumonga! x8 (now we're talking... spill that blood!) 3/0 Round 4 - Hedora! x3 (well... that was just... disappointing.... lazy, useless, good for nothing sludge eating slugs.. EAT SALT AND DIE!) 4/0 Round 5 - Gabara! x1 (Muahahaha! The nightmare monster!) (Oh yeah! Now that's what I am talking about!) Mikehunt was evenly matched against this beast and was losing body parts left and right, but after his alt entered the fray and provided Mikehunt with several transfusions of sheep blood, he bested the bully and came out victorious.) "<Mikehunt> aw i never equipt my shiled lol" For his winnings.... well whats left of them.. 40 marble bricks, a supreme pizza, a rare crate rack, some felled cedar trees, some peanut butter cookies, and a toothpick.

A User interface (or HUD) update is in the works, we aim at making everything more streamlined.

Added, thank you for posting information.

Another thing I want to say about Ultradude (Ultracat on the forums) and Harvestmoon Lagoon: We are very welcoming and are not strict. We are a forgiving and loving community that do not require anything of you except that you have fun! We exist to help you grow

see it this way actuarius get your friends to join now they have about a bit more then half a year to get the hang of the game make the mistakes learn wurm the slow way and if they are still around in half a year and enjoy the game a lot and want to "do things the right way" there is the steam wo release with a possibility of a bigger userbase(doubt it will be that much though) and then they can pick either stay where they started or go to steam or do both(like im gonna do)

New deed: Hillpeace Location: F22/G22 (at the red marker 1544, 506) Thanks for keeping the map up to date!

1. Rugs that can be dyed. 2. The ability to dye canopy beds 3. Option to relocate deed token (Freedom only, long cooldown, must be within bounds of existing deed) 4. More slots/capacity on bookshelves (You can't fit very many books on them as it is now) 5. New statues of the gods, craftable with stonecutting (smaller than the arch statues, can substitute as an altar over QL 30) 6. More flower types. (And fuller-looking flowers in pots and planters, they look like sad dying stems.) 7. Better options for dye storage (The alchemist's cabinet is okay, but very limited and the decor on top is repetitive if you have several) 8. Dresses. (Not just for female toons. Let the guys rock a dress and let that chest hair really get it's moment in the spotlight!) 9. Wall decor - tapestries are cool, but there's not enough of them. This is where taxidermy would be awesome. 10. Tall kingdom banners that can be dyed (base freedom model) 11. Glass-making: Windows, glass bottles, wall mirrors 12. New healing cover made from honey+square of cloth (honey is antimicrobial, and these dressing are used in hospitals even now) 13. Recall to tower: Interaction with guard tower that teleports guards not active in combat back to the guard tower. This would remove guards from caves and bridges where they get stuck. 14. Diagonal fences for those less boxy edges. 15. Wagons with plain white cover that can be dyed. 16. Use dyes on clay pottery before firing to create a glaze for more decorative pottery pieces, such as those below. Maybe we can even stick a flower out of it (like those roses and lavender) 17. Now that we have some new critters running around, I'd like to suggest allowing them to be tamed. I'd love some gorillas to take care of. 18. Create spawns on former deed sites, especially where there are still fences and broken down buildings. I'd love to run into a skeleton or a ghost (whatever they're called) while doing some archaeology because it makes sense in those areas.

i have put the pics form this years lunalong hope to see you guys next year

Wait a minute.. Your not my wife are you? Sounds like the standard two word reply in a marriage.

Any chance to bring some bricks and pave it also? All of it? 🤔

I breed pheasants. They give a nice change from the chickens, and they give feathers when murdered. I hold a grudge.

Man i feel like you post for the sake of posting.

which part are you looking at/commenting vaguely?

Done

Merchantman Oblivionnreaver, Thanks for a great speedy service, I would highly recommend you to anyone who is in need of artifacts of quality and worth, Blacktyde will be using your services again. A+ Kind Regards Khaldrogo High King of Blacktyde

Seems like an amazing server.... I might actually check that out despite not really being into WU O.o

My hope is they do something like the following: change skill gain, make it more like WU, i do not mean faster, just change it that it pays to use the highest QL tools at all time. the thing with the skiller crappy tools has always bothered me. ----------- Make it Free to play but also offer a subscription option. free to play can do anything they want but is limited to 1 character. subscription comes with 1 additional character and the ability to purchase additional character upgrades (one time purchase, but not playable if subscription ends) subscription gives a flat 5 % skill gain increase and some vanity options maybe like "no passive decay on items in your inventory" or something thats usefull but not game breaking. --------- NO RMT! NO ACCOUNT SALES! ------------ make a decent shop, give it its own currency ( shop coins) and give people with a subscription a few coins a month that are only useable in the shop and can not be traded. and sell shopcoins for RL money. in the shop: sell skillgain potions (2 hours or 100% ) lots of skins for characters and walls. maybe things like 1 time gender chance, 1 time character remodelling etc vanity items like a skin for a fountain. do yearly new themes in the shop. like a medieval theme for year where most new skins have that theme to it ----------------- servers: make servers special, give them a theme of some sorts. have a server with harder terrain, more brutal animals and as a reward for that better ore vein quality or something. maybe let some servers have unique animals with unique hides that make unique and new armors, not good perse or way better, just different looking and other tools and skill requirements. spidersilk and willow bark armor.. i dont really care about the names just give more variety, have one that has almost no red animals but way more blue ones, maybe prebuild the highways between the starter towns and make it feel more like a kingdom that is safe, some guard towers etc. build some monuments with a purpose that cannot be claimed or terraformed around . for example a huge mountain peak that is named and gives an achievement if climbed. a pvp server and jackal ish server though without the skill reset. just limits all skills to 50. ---------- trade: please fix trade and just make a server wide auction system where if i have the requirement building or deed upgrade or a central DEV build deed with an auction house but lets take trade to the games of NOW and not need forums, or emails. --------- EVENTS! please make more events. oooh and on the faith and sorcery and meditation, you are starting a new game, so you want to think about doing some real changes now, since no one can complain about losing hard work yet. maybe just combine all these things into one new system without the channeling skill but with skills for spells and wisdom, books or tomes, or something needed to learn the spells. i dont know but i feel like everything was added on top of each other and not always with to much thought on the long term consequences. you can change this now. thats its . ###### dudes i just a wurm 2.0 please take my money and go make it!

Funniest change and day I had yesterday . So I decided to use my two yellow potions on Jackal and then went running around as a barrel at first though the prime smith was away. Then I used my next one and got to run around with a backpack on my feet and a large mallet on my feet as a goblin running away from home for 33 minutes. Was quite funny the little picture and the neat little things it got . Here you go for a good little giggle.

Autumn on Deliverance

Dragon Farmer on the moon. He has an appetite for Wurm, apparently.

The renderer is not built around third person, and does not take clipping, collisions, height, or any factor into consideration, shadows and terrain renders forward to improve performance, and a whole host of other factors. It's pretty to offset the camera in a mod or as a proof of concept, but a functioning system would require far more effort and just isn't in our focus at this point.

It has been rumored, since 2015 or something. Plus the wording was a NEW ui and not just an "update".

Good one.. You asked for that reply. Dat's all.

You're wrong.

+1 Also, Dogs should bark when an aggressive creature shows up on deed, cats hiss. Makes them handy to have around. They would also like to hang around where people are, and possibly greet someone who enters the deed. JS

Can't get any Halloween drops but I guess the game's just tricking me...
