Great blade issue = polesword issue poll. Henrik Nystrom
Yes Im sorry about that, I didnt even know it was still like that,
We talked about it today, and will have it fixed in the next patch.

Thanks
Great blade issue = polesword issue poll. Henrik Nystrom
Before they had much more weak spots, but that created those imba sticks with weak spots, made that a bit to OP so daggers in generals had to be nerfed, no easy way for us to balance this since...
Getting stuck. Henrik Nystrom
How odd it may sound, that is correct.
We are adding a correct restriction for this in next client patch, which means you do not have to use smoothframe to correct this if having such high fps rates....
Great blade issue = polesword issue poll. Henrik Nystrom
I doesnt work like that.
We have no arc system to match animation, we have no traces getting spawned to simulate a hit depending on animation.
We have a real time trace system on the actual mesh,...
Getting stuck. Henrik Nystrom
Like fatcamp says, there is a small issue related to very high fps in UE3 that we have adjusted but not yet put live. Whenever we do our next client patch there are going to be a fix for this.
Crashing in Meduli Henrik Nystrom
leosuth, have you tried to lower all textures to the lowest in launcher option?
a 32 bits os should be able to run the game on lowest texture settings without these crashes. Also make sure win and...
Awakening - suggestions to make newbs stay Paratus
Skinning is used a little differently in Awakening. It's mostly a simple UI change, but when you learn extraction you'll now see an actual skinning ability which can be used anywhere, just like...

If you're getting big stutters going into new areas it's likely one (or both) of two things:

Awakening Screenies Henrik Nystrom
There is one major change in Tindrem since this ss. We had to have something that split the city a bit to save performance, so the big mountain had to go in the centre of the city, where the Emperor...

Lol, you dont you think that was my intention?

Oh. Uhm.

Ok, I've no idea how that map ended up here, but that's one of the very first maps I did for MO many years ago, according to Henriks initial layout. Believe it or not, some of the...

Twitter News Henrik Nystrom
alright guys.. some news then.
SV pls INFO!! Henrik Nystrom
I bet 95% on that he is experiencing a level stream and not a node change, since node changes do not take more than like you said, a top lag on a second or so. Level streaming takes more (depending...

It's something I'll consider doing, although if the game is installed properly, and not just copied from another drive, for example, it will install the prerequisites at that time. Thus it shouldn't...
need help with my new computer Paratus
Yes, you do. With a fresh Windows 7 install you will most likely need to install DirectX from Microsoft if you just copied the game back over without running the installer.

This is an issue I'm still working on, for sure. The problem is a little more complicated in that it's with the patching engine itself, not so much our launcher. I'm working with the company who...

Idle: Why Can't I? Henrik Nystrom
Actually, we do have a idle kick in the game.
As long as you refresh your status every now and then, you wont be kicked from the game.

Server patch 2011-12-22 Henrik Nystrom
Hi all,

Server is right now down for a server update. And will be up again shortly.

This update handles a few minor bugs,
* guild members have a temp cap on 180 members.
* Keep control radius...
AQ dissapeared again? Henrik Nystrom
We found a bug similar to "dissapearing" guild storages, on guild that are getting large.
Fixed that, and we are about to turn on the server again in a few.

Or you go to fabernum and hunt raffle bags and hopes to hit jackpot ;) some people have found some deeds already, this event is during Xmas only, good luck!
Launcher doesn't start - error instead Paratus
All of the .Net frameworks are mostly independent within Windows. Reinstalling 3.5 wouldn't affect any other versions.

Reinstalling the .Net Framework really SHOULD be the solution to this issue...
Launcher doesn't start - error instead Paratus
Sounds like an issue with .Net. Try to reinstall Microsoft .Net Framework 3.5. :)
Towns and PP Henrik Nystrom
Good feedback, like we mentioned, we planned to make it a task to control a city, and changing rules etc would cost you some points, also to promote that you may want to work to get people to live...

Announcing the government of Morin Kur and the law of the land Henrik Nystrom
Correct Afterlife, but yea, all those features involves AI and GUI, therefore it is correct order to have highest prio on those two for now.

But oh yes, we have a lot more in the design half ready...
A Challenge. 500 followers! Henrik Nystrom
Yes to all those Dsn, but I dont know in what order and what time frame.

Right now all focus goes to AI and GUI. Which you can see directly related to all the above features.
