Posted August 5, 2012 Lol - doing the chores for you definitely keeps me busy during most of the day. So, if you really consider giving me a break, master, I might be able to look into this little problem for you Well, joking aside - this might be a problem. At the moment the text position is kind of hard-coded and relates to the actual center point of the clock face. Using different fonts and sizes would make this little program a lot more complex, I wonder if it will really be worth the effort.Anybody else keen on having different fonts and sizes? (If I get enough requests and motivation I might go and try to find a solution ) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 29, 2012 Here is my dilemma.I like to run Wurm Clock on my laptop... however... I can not get in game with my laptop (too low specs)How can I sync my clock? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 29, 2012 You don't need to run Wurm for the clock to work!As described in the program documentation (hint, hint ) WurmClock uses a "synchronization server" provided by user ago to get the current in-game time. So, after a server downtime and reboot the program will try to read the correct time from that sync server.Only if ago's sync server time is not updated regularly you need to run Wurm at least once to manually synchronize the clock.So, if you are unable to run Wurm you just have to wait for ago's sync server to be updated and the time displayed by WurmClock will be correct again.I am very sorry that WurmClock has to use this complicated mechanism! However, Rolf unfortunately gives user-written applications no way to access the server time or any other server data. I've already asked him (and some of the devs), but I received no answer Here is my dilemma.I like to run Wurm Clock on my laptop... however...

Posted October 18, 2012 I must say this is the handiest thing for Wurm I have ever found! Great job and thank you for such a handy app. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted November 19, 2012 Here is version 2.00, a major update of WurmClock! Nothing that can be seen at a first glance; in fact the clock will look almost exactly the same and the time displayed will (hopefully) be the same as before. However, finally WurmClock can obtain the in-game time directly from the Wurm server status information provided by Code Club AB. This status information has been made available only recently, and WurmClock will now synchronize with one of the official server status URLs (e. g. "http://freedom001.ga...les/stats.html"). Thus, the clock does no longer depend on a user-provided synchronization server which means that time synchronization will be much faster after a server reboot!You'll find a short description and the download links in the OP.Have fun using WurmClock!. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 19, 2012 Thanks Yaga!I've come to depend on that clock a lot when deciding what I do next . Who wants to mine when the sun's about to rise!Also love knowing what's in season with a quick glance! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 20, 2012 Had to release a minor update today. It turned out that one of the server status URLs (Independence) is not being refreshed, while the server status says "Up and running". Thus, the clock seemed to be stuck since last night. Still have to find out what to do in a case like this (WurmClock was depending on the status information, which in this case is wrong).Version 2.01 (download from OP) has a first workaround, using the login server's time and date now. Sorry for the inconvenience. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted December 19, 2012 Mine is off...how can I reset it?Can you give me more details, please? How is it off? Does it appear frozen or is it behind/ahead? If so, by how much? Always, or only after a server reboot? Which server are you on?Please note, that you can always try to right click the clock and select "Synchronize Clock". Does this fix the problem?

Posted January 5, 2013 Took the liberty to combine the skins and app in a single file, it can be found at http://www.wurmonline.se/Tools/WurmClockApp.rar.If you wish it updated just send me a forum or ingame pm... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 6, 2013 No problem, Daash. However, there was a reason to have two separate files. The program and the skins are bound to be updated at different intervals, so I considered separate files more practical. Please check this thread for updates.

Posted January 8, 2013 (edited) Hi, my Wurmclock seems to be displaying all the correct information, but it is not highlighting the season. None are highlighted at all. Any ideas?Thanks!edit: Nm, I see in the .pdf that's it's currently unavailable. Sorry. Edited January 8, 2013 by Arson Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted January 29, 2013 For some time I noticed that the clock shows different time, ie. now in the game is: "It is 16:26:14 on..." (taken from main forum page), and the clock shows something between 11 and 12 am.I tried to download latest version but have an error: "Download permission denied by uploader."Any idea what wrong?

The mechanism of time synchronisation has been changed since version 2.00.Obviously, the file host (rapidshare) changed all folder settings recently, effectively preventing all downloads! I fixed the problem now - thanks for the heads up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted February 10, 2013 Please note that someone else published another tool called "Wurmclock" today. I'd like to state that Chakron's web application is in no way related to the original WurmClock - he didn't even contact me before announcing it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 10, 2013 There are rumors that WurmClock shows incorrect Wurm time for some users. Please report any errors you may encounter, including the program version you are using, so that I have a chance to fix any bugs that might exist.Please make sure that you use the latest version (2.01). Older versions will display incorrect time (see release notes in OP)! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
