Posted January 16, 2014 Hello Fellow Wurmians! Welcome to yet another week of frantic activity. Both among us and the player base.But to sum up what has been done it might well be called The Week of Tweak.As we both had plenty of activity and feedback from the test server on fighting tweaks.And as the next big update is drawing near, plenty of checking to ensure all the pieces will fit together. I have made a very special video feature for you today where you get to see some of the activity when testing the fight tweaks.Also how I "troll" some of the players and cause some real testing situations. So let us get to it and Share some News! Trolling Players on the Test Server!Press the youtube icon in the window to go to our channel and view it in 1080p>http://youtu.be/UmlvYb-oepY Some of the more noticeable Tweaks and Fixes New lighting changesThere has been an update to our graphics engine so it handles lighting in a more natural way.The foremost change would be in the way light reacts with material shaders. Though before the full affect is achieved there are some materials that will need to be updated.If you look for it, you can probably spot some differences in how the graphics look if you view the video earlier in this News Post Added the friends login/out message It is now shared both in friends and events tab. It also includes which server a friend is logging on to. Tornado SpellThere was a fix to a strange bug where the Tornado spell, which has the power of felling trees, was leaving miniature fallen trees in its wake. Tweaks to the particle system To get better looking fog. Tweaks to the crafting window interface.For example: Bigger recipe button and a hand icon in crafting window. Bridges We now have an extra dev working part time on the bridges and helping with things such as collision detection. New IconsAdded "button" background to character wound/3d button Updates to LauncherWe have updated the loading splash screen and several other elements of the launcher.You need to empty your local cache on your computer to see the changes.To do this on PC, you need to do the following: Go to control panel.Find Java icon and double click it to gain access to its settings.In the window appearing you need to go to the General tab.When on this tab, find header Temporary Internet files and click settings.After doing this you should find remove files at the lover left bottom of the window.This will empty your cache and the next time you launch Wurm, it will download the new graphics. I hope you all enjoyed this update and that you leave some feedback on the video.Also understand that usually I am usually not of the sadistic nature, I promise.And lastly my uttermost respect for the players in the video, they fought with great valor and vigor! But now I think it is about time to,Keep on Wurming! 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted January 17, 2014 I'm really impressed with how much you guys are working on and how quickly you are resolving issues.Very happy Rolf was able to finally get some more help! One man can only do so much. I don't know how he ever kept up with it all before. I know this isn't a suggestions thread... but... I would highly suggest you guys develop a universal launcher application that would allow us single application access to all client versions.aka, access Stable, Unstable, and Test environments through one simple launcher application. Either case, great work, thank you, and keep it up! /cracks whip 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted January 19, 2014 Not just horses, chests, fountains, training dolls all get bright white when a lamp gets nearby.I guess they need to tweak the shaders when people disable glsl. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
