Posted January 15, 2018 (edited) We were playing around with this today and came up with some fun "trophy" items using taxidermy. Here is a dragon at 2x normal size, a little something fun to drive your cart through on the bridges: It also turns out pretty nicely to make a 1/4 sized creature and paint it gold, as a trophy from a hunt: Edited January 15, 2018 by Batta 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 15, 2018 Is it possible to make Taxidermy mod configurable so that it requires a very high level of Fine carp skill (I'd set it to 90), and costs money (I'd go with 50 silver)? I'd like to offer this to my players, but I need some way to keep the world from being overrun with them and creating massive lag for those with weaker computers.

Both are working very well. I will let you know if we find anything. I need to do some modification to taxidermy for some of my custom sized mobs so they don't use a normal size model but that is something for me to work out. Awesome. If you want to mess with the scaling you can start here - https://github.com/bdew-wurm/taxidermy/blob/master/src/main/java/net/bdew/wurm/taxidermy/PreserveAction.java#L90 2 hours ago, Batta said: Is it possible to make Taxidermy mod configurable so that it requires a very high level of Fine carp skill (I'd set it to 90), and costs money (I'd go with 50 silver)?

Hm, you could just sell the kits on traders instead of having them craftable. And maybe add an optional modifier to the difficulty of preserving (it currently scales with base mob difficulty). Will need more granular settings than there are right now, i'll think about it. In terms of graphics lag the lying butchered ones shouldn't be different from a normal corpse. The animated ones are more problematic but you can already limit their creation by karma. Edited January 15, 2018 by bdew Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted January 16, 2018 Hey Bdew, I noticed something strange with the town portal's mod. I'm not sure if it's on my end or not but I thought I'd post here to see if maybe this is an issue. First off everything works exactly like you should it would with one exception. If the deed has an apostrophe in it's name then it won't populate the drop list correctly. Basically say there was a deed called Jack's Mansion. It will show everything in the drop down menu up until the apostrophe but anything after the apostrophe (including the apostrophe) doesn't show up. So any deeds starting with A through Jack would show up but nothing after that show's up. Something like this: Avalon, Dark Castle, Jack This could possibly be an issue with Wurm in general but it show's up fine on the Find a route list and the GM Set teleport destination list. Also you're still able to teleport to the deed with the apostrophe. Any help would be appreciated and thanks for all of the hard work you do for the community Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 16, 2018 (edited) Everyone on my server is loving it so far. Only suggestion I have is make it possible to teleport to a portal that is located underground (in a cave). Keep up the awesome job! Edited January 16, 2018 by Governor Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes right now they aren't registered if crafting is disabled, i meant after i make the settings more granular. 9 hours ago, Asperis said: Hey Bdew, I noticed something strange with the town portal's mod.

Posted January 17, 2018 When I had a town portal underground, my character will teleport to it fine but the vehicle will be on the surface on the same tile I am. I will test it on a fresh server when I get home since you had no issues. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted January 18, 2018 (edited) Highway Portals v1.3 is out ("are we done yet?" edition) Portals are no longer indestructible, but won't decay on deed and take a really long time otherwise Portals can now be dyed (using 8kg of dye or rune) Portals will no longer show up as mission targets Portals can now be rotated (why the hell no one complained about that?)

Posted January 19, 2018 PSA: I've found a bug in serverpacks mod, this bug along with the symptoms listed in the link will also make some players unable to use town portals, they will constantly get a message about not being fully manifested into the world. It's pretty rare and requires some specific timing to happen so if you aren't affected you shouldn't worry about it, but if it happens - temporarily disabling serverpacks on the client will fix it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 19, 2018 Suggestion for the highway portals mod. When the town portal is inactive, the portal model is static (like the way it is now). When active, make the model the animated one with the bubble in the middle. That would be pretty cool. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

One of the issues I've been trying to solve for Ultima Nostalgia has been the NPC situation. In UO, each shop or establishment will have NPCs hanging around with matching names and titles. So of course I'd like to "populate" the server accordingly. At first I was spawning humans with such names just the normal way through "summon", and while it was nice that I could give the NPC a proper name and choose the gender, even dress them to my liking, they would of course never stick around to the spot I wanted them to chill in and would just wander off. So when this taxidermy thing came, I thought this might be the perfect solution for planting NPCs all over the place. But now that I started doing that, I realize that every time you spawn one, it differs from "summon" in that: It does not randomize the visual look, they all have the same model, same face etc They are all male When I name them, or actually naming any "preserved corspe" will have the "birchwood" material attached to it. So I've got "birchwood skeletons" and "birchwood blacksmiths" as below etc So 1. Is there any chance to omit the birchwood material showing in the name? And 2. Is there any chance for the spawned NPCs to randomize their facial + hair look and gender? I don't mind that I can't dress them, I'd be more than happy with the NPCs just looking like different humans and not clones. Try using material magic, when you making preserved body.

Posted January 19, 2018 New mod: No Damage Not recommended for normal servers! Removes all damage from items, walls, roofs, floors, fences and bridges from all sources. With this mod nothing will ever decay, bashing is impossible (except GMs) Any attempt to damage anything will reset it to 0 damage, unless it's 100 damage in one tick (this is to allow GMs to still remove walls, etc).
