Anyone get any game updates yet today? It's 12:10 PM Eastern Standard Time so there's plenty of time left for today. Only asking because due to Time Zone Variances other regions would receive the update before others and I'm interested in what's new.
Hi @zfoxfire
Season 3 starts next month.
From what I remember in the past, the update has hit between 4pm and 6pm EST. So we still have a few more hours to go. But no guarantee that will apply today.
hope so...really anticipating this update
Dungeons
Me too! I even made a tribute to our great dungeon masters.
Today seems to be the day. Wheeee!!
here is the official page which is updated with news:
https://www.facebook.com/jiwgames/
Doesn't seem active. I sent a message to see who owns it.
There is already a fb page
oh? what is the link?
Miwarre,
Is it possible to set up groups as owners? this is a huge limitation of the existing area protection script
i'm still confused what the favorite tag does...
in server list, you can right click on any server and find a favorite option. select it and that server will be under your favorites list.
I would like to see a search box added to the server list so we can search by name.
optimizations would be nice but I think the scope of this thread is for simple changes to the UI.
1. I think the direction when using the scrollwheel is backwards from Minecraft. There should be an option to reverse this or possibly make a keyboard/mousebutton assignment out of this (if popularity demands).
2. Wow! I didn't even realize there was a quantity number in the corner of the hotbar slot for a stack. I have also noticed just now that there is no transparency layer in the hotbar. Darkening the hotbar background and making the numbers lighter in color would make for better contrast.
Ok, now to add on to your list....
3. When saving a blueprint, I cannot tab from the name field to the group field. I have to click instead.
4. Blueprints are still consumed in creative mode but other items are not.
.. more to come, now that you have me thinking about this ...
Modified texture jars would work for now. Most of us use Steam and can simply "uninstall" the modified jar by validating our game copy. However, this is not ideal and I really doubt if Red51 would approve of jar hacking (that kinda falls into the realm of how most Minecraft mods work and he really wants this game to be mod friendly by expanding the capabilities of the official API). Ideally there should be API methods to override any internal textures (be it block or ground texture or wood beam/plank, object materials, or NPC material (incase anyone wants rainbow colored cows for example).
I've seen a few others attempt to modify the game textures by modifying jars but now that we have a powerful API, a formal request for this feature should be made here to add some API features for the same or just a generic texture pack support which would not require a 3rd party plugin:
There are a few other pages floating around for specific regions. when I was looking for yours last night, I also found one for Czechoslovakia and Brazil. Having a generic one certainly won't hurt.
at 1:00 into the trailer, you can see health bars for other members of your team. How do I enable this?
I really like the modified night sky.
Wir wünschen ebenfalls allen frohe Weihnachten!
Looks like my kind of party
If you're running the server on your local machine, make sure that port port forwarding is still active. As @yahgiggle mentioned, depending on your ISP, you may get a new IP after a given amount of time (usually 24 hours), so if your forwarded ports only take a specific IP into account, it may no longer be valid. Here you can find out if your ports are still forwarded: http://www.yougetsignal.com/tools/open-ports/
Also make sure that you always run the server by executing the win_startscript.bat, never execute the server.jar file directly (unless you run it from a command prompt).
About the saving behaviour: The world will be saved every 10 seconds, and it will also be saved when the server shuts down gracefully.
Red,
I know nothing about Windows the Linux script appears much more advanced and incorporates start and stop modes. The windows script just seems like a wrapper for running the jar. Nothing fancy. Windows has start/stop/restart modes for services just as Linux does. Would it be possible to have a new Windows script added that can be used as a Windows service?
alluminium is a surface ore, usually on the sides of mountains. but other ores such as gold, sulfur, and mithiril are deep below
i know that domestication of animals, animal breeding, and more item drops from animals is planned. Also a cooking system.
Now lots of fans here (myself included) have made suggestions for a leveling system and a skill tree system. While Red51 seemed interested in the ideas, nothing official was ever announced. At minimum, there will be a system for clothing and armor to offer protection from impact and extreme temperatutes. Fortunately with dungeons now just days away, player models will be the next big update so we might get some more info about the player models real soon and maybe some screenshots.
I've heard lots of good things about Wurm unlimited but from what I understand of the game, that level of crafting complexity might be beyond what I would expect from Rising World. But who knows? This is an alpha game and there never was any guarantee that the game will be anything close to what it was when it first hit Steam. I guess we shall see. I would like to see harvesting, crafting, and construction in Rising World be a little bit more complex than it currently is but something that mimics Wurm might be a bit too extreme. I just dont want to spend all day building a boat and worry about what my sucess rate is of hammering a nail into a board.
