Would be nice if we could be able to rotate item on all axes when trying to place them . Like my pitchfork, shovel or scythe would look nice if i could lean them on barn wall, not to lying on ground.

For the past couple days I've been messing around with The Big Sleep, a tool to generate images from text prompts using AI (specifically OpenAI's CLIP and BigGAN). What this means: You input a text prompt, like "a man standing on a sidewalk" and it generates an image based on that prompt, continuously trying to "improve" the image over many iterations, often resulting in something weird, possibly incoherent, and probably surreal. So, I decided to have it generate images for a bunch of things in Wurm Online! The text prompts I used consisted mostly of in-game descriptions, modified as necessary, plus a couple requests I got from users in the Wurm Online Discord server. Many of these took at least a few attempts before I got anything reasonable, and some prompts worked much better than others. Note that the text prompt listed is the only input I had; the rest was up to the software. Images themselves have been spoilered to avoid clutter and make this easier to navigate. Here we go! First, various Wurm creatures! For these, I just used the in-game description of the creatures, with no other text added. Hell Hound (prompt: "The hell hound is said to be spies and assassins for the demons of Sol") One of my favorites. The weird mouth made out of tendrils is a bit disturbing. Lava Spider (prompts "a giant spider made of lava" and "a giant spider full of lava") Prompts don't follow the given format, as I made these before settling on my methods. Vaguely spider-like, but pretty abstract. Spawn of Uttacha (Prompt: "Uttacha is a vengeful demigod who lives in the depths of an ocean on Valrei. These huge larvae are hungry and confused abominations here. ") Obviously the AI has no idea what "Uttacha" is, but the rest was enough for it to create some... fairly disturbing and grotesque images, as you could guess. You've been warned. Avatar of Magranon (Prompt: "A ferocious beast indeed, the juggernaut can crush mountains with its horned forehead") I love this little guy. He looks like a ferret with a cool mustache who got into the weight gain powder and hasn't stopped lifting since. Maybe not what I was expecting of a Magranon avatar, but I wouldn't trade him for anything. Avatar of Libila (Prompt: "This terrifying female apparition has something disturbing over it. As if it's just one facet of Libila") Presumably because of the "female apparition" part of the prompt, this mostly turned into spooky ghost photos. But still pretty neat ghost photos! I think Libila would appreciate them. Avatar of Fo (Prompt: "Something seems to have gone wrong as Fo tried to create his manifestation. The thorns are not loving at all and it seems very aggressive.") The AI had absolutely no idea what to make of this. The description doesn't really indicate that it's a humanoid creature at all, or indeed any kind of creature, so it seems to have gone with "malicious morass of bloody thorns". Sure, why not! Avatar of Vynora (Prompt: "This female creature is almost see-through, and you wonder if she is made of water or thoughts alone") This one was tough. Since the description doesn't specify that the creature is humanoid, I got a lot of weird, sometimes disturbing results resembling translucent sea creature flesh. I almost gave up, but then it struck gold, with an image of what looks like a gigantic humanoid shape rising out of the water on the horizon, with barely-visible arms and a darkened face. Sheep (Prompt: "A mythical beast of legends, it stares back at you with blood filled eyes and froth around the mouth.") Well, thanks to the jokey creature description, this was bound to go poorly, wasn't it? We've got two rather distressing images here: An abstract bloody terror foaming at the mouth(?), and what appears to be demonic blood owl resembling the Goetic demon "Stolas". Lamb (prompt: "A small cuddly ball of fluff") Now this is better. Cuddly as advertised! Has a smushed face that kind of looks like a cross between a rodent, cat, and bunny. Would pet. Evil Santa (Prompt: "Some sort of Santa Claus is standing here, with a fat belly, yellow eyes, and a bad breath") After a few attempts, I got what appears to be an absolutely feral Santa Claus stooped in the grass, doing god-knows-what. A giant tuft of wild white hair with some kind of headband up top, and a barely-visible red cloak or coat. I hate this. I hate this so much. Next, I wanted to know what the AI's interpretation of Wurm's several moons. For these, I used the in-game description, but added the word "moon" and sometimes a color, just to give the AI something to go on. Seris (prompt: "A white moon that is a haven for the dead") The first of these is pretty bizarre and surreal, with what seems like the surface of a moon with a pillar(?) and an arm(??) on top of it, with another moon-like object in the sky. The second came out fairly straightforward, as a white moon on a somewhat ethereal space background. Jackal (Prompt: "A moon flowing with the blood of the damned", "A red moon flowing with the blood of the damned") Both a bit abstract, but I think they get the feeling pretty well. The first in particular looks rather menacing, whereas the second went all-in on the blood, it seems. Haven (Prompt: "A small teal moon rumored to be where Golden Valley lies") Two different color cues confused the AI a bit, but I think it did a good job regardless! One appears to be a fresco-like painting of a shining blue moon above a golden landscape, whereas the other looks like a deep-space telescope photo of a teal-and-golden moon that appears to have had a chunk bitten out of it. Valrei (Prompt: "A large pale blue moon that is the home of the gods" (1st), "A large pale cyan moon that is the home of the gods" (others)) Got some neat results out of this one! The first looks like a painting, complete with artist's signature in the lower-right, of a pale blue moon casting its light over a strange landscape with stranger architecture. The second and third are surprisingly coherent imagery of what a moon of that color might look like, and the last looks like a landscape with Valrei rising over some mesas in the background. Bonus requests! Man digs tar on a large slope (Prompt: "A man digging tar with a shovel on a steep slope") Requested by Madnath on Discord. This one turned out better than I thought it would! I couldn't decide which iteration of this attempt I like better, so I'm including both. Resembles a slightly-stylized silhouette of a man digging tar with a shovel, on a background that looks sort of like clay or a cave wall. Sailing through a border to be left a drift (Prompt: "A man adrift in the ocean at the edge of the world") Requested by Beronica on Discord. A reference to the occasional unfortunate server-crossing player left without his boat. First result was a straightfoward image of a man stranded as sea, although the man looks glitchy and weird. The second seems to be a much more artsy, stylized rendition of the same, with an almost ecclesiastical style to it. Easter bunnies trapped behind wooden walls who are forced to relinquish their Easter eggs by greedy peasants (Prompt: exactly what it says) Requested, with that exact text, by Bunn on Discord. I don't know how she expected this to work out, but it kind of didn't! Instead, we got the Easter Bunny fever dream you see below. Extra special bonus! Seals! These are the very first Wurm images I made with the AI, and of course, being a Newspring resident, they were all seal-related. Some of these turned out better than others! Prompt: A seal screams at God under the light of the full moon. Only barely recognizable as a seal. Surreal and spooky, but we can do better. Prompt: A group of harbor seals summoning an evil spirit in a field The AI still isn't quite sure how to construct seals, but this vaguely does appear to be a group of seals on the shoreline, doing something mystical. Someone should probably stop them. Prompt: An ancient wall scroll depicting a harbor seal destroying a city This is probably my favorite in this entire post. It clearly depicts some kind of awful monstrous sea-monster seal creature wreaking absolute terror on the populace. I appreciate the city landscape and buildings on the top and left, some ships in danger on the right, and what might be a city block at the base of the seal-thing's body. The ancient-looking writing in the middle is a nice plus.

Considering how much stuff the Animal Update broke, new content for 2021 will probably be scrapped. From reports I've read this week the traits are a mess, the NERF to vehicles is the biggest anti-quality-of-life update in the past 4 years of the game (the last one I'd classify as the Freedom>Epic one way skill transfer that killed Epic entirely as many predicted * sad face * ) . I've tested vehicle speeds with bred horses and wild horses, fully loaded wagons and carts and the speed nerf is over 25%. Considering carts are slow anyway, a nerf like that is more than insulting considering, ya know...we have HUGE freaking maps in this game. Let's nerf transporation. Sorry but new content isn't what's needed, communication (a personality trait that's been requested by the few remaining players for years) , testing and fixing broken stuff is prioritary.

Can we have a break from implimenting new content to the game untill all the stuff thats broken get fixed? There is so much broken stuff that needs fixing like hoses in the most resent patch. Fix whats broken not break what works.

Can this be turned into an ingame tapestry?

I'd like to see information for armor related speed reduction in the client. It should be like the weight tool tip in character window that informs players of weight related speed reductions. It could be a status affect, it could be a mouse over thing in character window.

"What skill-specific buildings do you have on deed?" i live in 1x3 with @Miketand @Blackbeardwith everything there, thats all what we have

Pristine Community Map Welcome to the new Community map. Welcome your new editors: @AlmostSolitude2, @Explora , @Ohana @Sidereal, @Vannin Special thank you to @Yaga for hosting and designing. Map Link: Pristine Community Map Features 1. Map coordinates The map offers a common type of map grid (as an optional overlay), using the same denotation as the in-game map (for example "E 24"). However, to place and find locations in a much more detailed way the new map is based on "tile coordinates" (x, y), making it possible to narrow down locations to a single tile on the server! This allows us to place deeds and landmarks much more precisely than before. (Map coordinates are explained in the next post.) 2. Zoom The map provides various zoom levels, allowing to zoom in from a view of the entire server to close-ups of single deeds. 3. Layers Deeds, Tunnels, Canals, Bridges etc. are actually map layers which can be toggled on and off. You can also choose among two map types (Terrain, Topographical). 4. Finding settlements The map offers an easy-to-use search function for deeds. 5. Finding Guard Towers and Mission Structures The map offers an easy-to-use search function for Guard Towers(T) and Mission Structures(M). 6. Selecting locations and copy coordinates You are able to select any point on the map and save the coordinates for future use. Colors and symbols Map policy This community map will be using a opt-in policy. If your deed is listed here and you want it removed please post here or send a editor a forum pm. Adding Data Please post in this thread to report new or changed data. (Do not send PMs, neither on the forum nor in-game! Do not use Discord to add data either!) Please use tile coordinates (x, y) to report new map data. (Hover your mouse pointer over the location you wish to report, click once to see the coordinates in the "Selected" field, copy the coordinates.) Deeds: Please report the settlement name and the coordinates of the settlement token. Example: "Serendipity Bay [1650, 1384]" Highways: Please report the coordinates of all points describing the highway (start, "corners", end). Please use this format: "[305,1453], [305,1415], [226,1415], [226,1383], [156,1383]" Tunnels, Canals, Bridges: Like highways. These elements can also be given a name. Guard Towers & Mission Structures: Please report guard towers, and mission structures and the coordinates. Example: "Serraphine 722 [993, 842]" Other: You can also report clay and tar resources, guard towers, and special named landmarks (like names of lakes and mountains, as long as agreed among the local community.) Map Development The software for this map was developed by @Substr and will be maintained and updated by both Substr and Yaga. It is part of an ongoing project. Further improvements and features will be added in future updates. I am very grateful to Substr, who did an awesome job creating the foundation for this community map project. Special thanks also go to jackjones for his original ideas and concepts, which were the basis of our previous community map and also influenced the development of this new map project.

I love the new inspect animal window! It almost makes possible to choose breeding pairs without having to read the event log, but is just missing a few details that are important for breeding. The event log also has a lot more text about animals now, which makes it harder to find those specific details. It's a lot to scroll through, and I have to reexamine the animals many times because it's hard to mentally keep track of the necessary details for several different creatures at once when matchmaking. I suggest adding the following to the inspect window: Gender Parents Colour With those points added it would be possible to choose breeding pairs without having to read the event log at all

Currently when the hay tile is done doing its thing it is still green and looks like every other tile Please make it the appropriate yellowish colour to help differentiate it

You Press H for Wurmpedia window and have to click the input field again to start typing. I don't think anyone or at least not many people use the Wurmpedia page to browse around. Most of us want to search for something quickly. Have the input field active already when a player presses H / Wurmpedia window loads up so players can start typing their query right away.

What Wurm really needs after the last year is far better communication, more open testing (on the public test server) and a better feedback loop, which comes back to communication. The latest update is a good example of that, a lack of communication and testing now has is with what looks like, and quite likely is, a big vehicle speed nerf. Now what do the speeds actually look like with max draft horses/bisons? We don't yet know as we don't have those yet, but what we do have doesn't paint a great picture. This entire mess could have been prevented with proper communication. If the above isn't fixed and they switch from new content to fixing broken stuff, then what do you expect that will happen? Will they fix things in the way the community expects, or will more stuff just get broken in an attempt to fix it? So it's not Wurm they need to fix, it's their way of work that needs adjusting.

The piles shrink significantly with each stage and you can learn to recognize the harvest stage based on the shape instead of the colour. Freshly dried hay does still have a greenish colour in real life. The only thing that does feel a bit wrong to me is that the tiles turn to dirt after harvesting. Cutting grass for hay is basically like mowing the lawn, so if it's intended to be realistic the tiles should remain as short grass after harvest.

I think it was 32 per tile and you need 64 to make a stack or bundle, I canceled the bundle action but made the bale and both hay and bale went into a bsb. The mouse over I think only said dried nothing to suggest its ready other than that I didn't examine it was mostly just annoyed that it was green and not very obvious. I put some details into the bug thread but I have some tiles that have been wet/damp since patch day and plenty have turned to dirt have had about 6 tiles in total become ready. Its way too random there is nothing fun in realism.

We are aware, but thank you for reporting this.

yes please, when pressing H ingame, we already write what we search for so do like "old" wiki, let us come to what we search for direct And also make so we can copy from the page and past into game

I was minding my own business, enjoying the natural wildlife, when this huge one-eyed kreaton walked up and threw me!! And I scuffed my favorite shoes! I demand revenge! This will be a public slaying presented to you by NFI's newest unique hunting group. Location is K-21. You can follow waystones to KotG Mining Consortium, I'll have signs set up pointing you to the location from the highway when you get close. And remember, the next unique you find, contact me and I'll help you trap it, help you decide what to do with it, and get you the most rewards for it!

This one has probably been suggested already but it would be nice to have a waterway system similar to the highway system. Using buoys to help navigate to costal deeds would be a tremendous help.

Also the Defender's of the North Alliance would like to ask if you build a construction for this rift to please remove your constructions afterwards

big gratz to ajana on this one! 🥳

Hi guys - Thanks Batta, you're 100% correct about the Whitelist mod Sylvanas, thanks for your interest, and sorry for the inconvenience, but OnlyFrands is a whitelisted community as explained in the main post. "To join, you need to submit an application on our Discord channel in order to be invited to play. If you don't apply, your connection attempt will be refused automatically." This is to preserve the type of community we here at OnlyFrands like best. We wish you best of luck where ever you end up next.

I love the last one so much. We need giant death seals, a cuddlier Magranon, that sheep demon. Please make this all so.

This is why having communication between devs and players is quintessential to good development BEFORE the update kicks in. imagine if two months ago ago we would have had this following convo: Demona: "Hey guys, a part of the update is that carts/wagons will be slowed down if you dont have draft horses." Players : Ok, by how much? Demona: Depends, but around 25% to 30%, even more if horses have no traits. Players : What? What about our old 5 speeders? Will they be of any use? Demona: Not really, all of them will not be that useful for carts and wagons. Players: Please see how this is a mistake and not code it in the first place. Why kill vehicle speeds in the slowest game in the world? Demona : hmmm, I see your point, I'll talk t o the team and see what we can do to not nerf vehicle speeds like this. New players might be disenfranchised the most by it. Players : Glad you see our point and thought this through, we'll await for the update when it kicks in. Demona: Our pleasure, this is why maintaning comms is important. This conversation of course is part of an alternate reality. I tried using 2 wild horses btw with a regular 50 ql cart. This is a joke. PS: I'm not attacking demona or anything, but the higher ups need to figure out how communication works and stop beating wurm to death with bad updates. It's like we're doing the same thing for 7 years now. Two steps forward, break an ankle then two steps back.

+1 for merchant convoy contracts and sending goods via water to other islands.

I share many of the concerns in this thread. Really any negative change to speeds of carts and wagons should be undone. The question really is what good does the change serve? This is a huge qol change in the wrong direction in a game that really can't afford it in my opinion. My other concern is what happened to the whole thing about testing things more on test and getting feedback and that somebody was taken onto the team to be in charge of patch testing etc? Or was that just thrown out again.

Point is, it was really unnecessary for there to be such a harsh nerf to carts and wagons to begin with. New players get royally screwed, and suggesting they just go and breed a full team of max draft animals just so they can have some form of reasonable use of a vehicle is just... dumb.

Having a quick look at what I haven't slaughtered today it could be that its both some missing and miscommunicated or just all miscommunication I would guess your unbelievably fast is what was advertised as "it is naturally fast" I cant guess what a graceful eater should be though

Thanks to Substrand, Ohana, and Yaga for making this wonderful tool and opening it up to the wurmian public - I'm excited to help out and to start filling additional map details, particularly mission structure locations! Deeds should only be added by the deed owner or with the owner's permission, yes? Mission construction: Luck Shrine [1721, 1355] I feel like I've finally made it in Wurm when @Evening considers me an 'old player'. 😎

It would be good if the weather got updated with some nice effects. Rain - When it rains, you can see the rain and it lasts for quite a while. With the sky bringing in Dark Clouds and even lightning maybe. Fog - When it is foggy, how about some different kinds of fog. Thick fog, thin fog but also fog that moves across the ground like a fog machine kind of effect. (Maybe Wurm might not be able to handle doing that) Snow - Light snow falling. Make it a bit more noticeable. Summer - How about making dirt tiles have cracks in them? (Not like packed dirt though) Spring - How about having some bees/dragonflies flying around some trees or flowers. (They would not hurt you mind) Kind of like the butterflies now. Oh and also maybe even some petals from fruit trees could fall down randomly from the trees. I've seen the trees have leaves fall from them so some petals would be good too. Autumn - A few leaves blowing in the wind might be nice around alot of trees. Also leaves on the tiles, on the ground would be nice as well. Though, if you want to be super detailed, you could just have them within like 1 tile around a tree. Winter - Ice Crystals appear in caves which could be another source of snow/chill for a larder - Oh! Snow could also build up around the lower part of a building as well. Also snow on Roofs! like a dusting. Oh and fountains outside could freeze in place. You would still be able to drink the water inside it though (Just an effect)

Can we get an official response on why wasnt it tested on the test server before going live?

said before, will say it again. Transportation in wurm was a joke and after the update is pathetic at best. Carts, horses, wagons etc on land should be least 10kmh faster that before update, not slower. And ships should be 30 kmh faster as a base speed against wind. You wanna sail one server to another and back - better have 2 movies ready to watch on netflix as its that intense sailing and gaming...

Great video evidence. I agree, QUITE serious. One day a lava tile may be in a horses path. Yikes! Now is un safe to unhitch your horses.. even inside locked gates.

Devs really dropped the ball on this one. Instead of making carts 10% faster they went into the opposite wrong direction, making transports even slower. Cause every player that rode a car in GTA said "Gee, this slow car is awesome!" or players riding a bike in motocross saying "Wow, this snail bike is great, add more!". Really, what was the rationale behind purposefully slowing things in an already tedious and slow game? Padding? Making the game seem "longer" ? This does nothing but anger your playerbase. Want a good change? I'd rather you add a few % to cart speeds as as good chance instead of leaving this as is. Here's holding my breath. I took my deed cart for a spin moving some stuff around today and empty with 2 horses having 2 draft traits each and 80+ ql with 90 woa gear I got 20 km/ph empty cart. Loaded with 2 large crates it dropped to 15 km/ph. This crap is really insulting. What's next? Are boats too fast? Should be expect a new nerf there too?

To be more specific, RIP breeding those horses with any consistency, based on your knowledge and the herd that you nurtured. They will still be made but only through RNGing through thousands of slaughtered foals, and buyers will be unperturbed. But if everything besides majority traits truly is RNG, it's not a fulfilling change for breeders. That is indeed what we feared.

The ability for marsh It was added at some point but I have tested it on Cele keeping dirt tiles in shallow water and next to shallow water and it did not spread at all for the months I watched. Which is sad - marsh should be possible to be recreated, I have some areas where I tried to restore the natural look of abandoned areas but failing with marsh.

I'd like to ask everyone to please keep it on topic and refrain from offensive jokes when stating your opinions.

Prices are high on NFI because there aren't droves of folks with 90's crafting and priest accounts. Give it a year and prices will fall. When NFI and SFI link prices on NFI will fall hard. It is a supply problem not a inflation problem. I like that I don't need game coins to the play for the most part. It would ruin Wurm for me if a game currency sink was added which gave advantageous things or was a required "utility bill". I'm cool with cosmetics.

I would like to order the 3 for 99 Oakwood grooming brush Meditation rug sickle send to Ismalla please

Like I said, before a Steam, there is no such thing like fresh start in Wurm, beside fresh land rush. All the vets, starting from scratch will be always far far ahead (couse of their experience) of all the new players that start from scratch. We have seen this on steam servers. So maybe we should stop pretending that people cannot cross with their skills and stuff couse they gonna destroy economy or new players experience. Just let merge population, which is too thin in Wurm to be spread more and more. If there were an option to consolidate all pvp servers into one big server, I would gladly let go all that I have built in past years (and there was a lot of it), just to keep population together, not spread among servers. Would be nice if we could keep our skills and maybe some stuff.
