Client Release Notes 7.17.16.19
Camera Updates
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We have increased the resource unloading distance from the camera from 50 to 60 meters to accompany the increase of the maximum third person zoom out distance. The camera panning speed has been increased with keyboard controls when "Free Look Around Character" control binding is used at the same time. The updates will also give the player smoother transition from third to first person views. You will notice better camera zooming transitions between race selections in character creation. The camera will also respond to both sitting and crouching actions taken by the player.

There is one known issue with the updated camera: when sitting in first person and zooming out to third, the character may appear to stand still for a moment, and the view may be slightly disoriented.





Community Updates


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Planning Window will now show the correct information when a player clicks on a plot.
Plot size is now properly displayed in the Plot Window.

There is a new "Refresh" button for guild structure editing. This allows the editor of the guild structure to immediately request its current state. The button will be available only when an edit is detected.

The guild rank editing system has gone through the first pass of optimization:

The default ranks have been renamed to "Officer" and "Member" to dispel the confusion surrounding the previous Guildmaster rank.
Rank numbers are no longer used in the guild system.
The rank order is now embedded in the rank title.
Guild ranks are ordered according to their place in the Guild Rank List, not by their renamed equivalent.
Ranks no longer require a command group assignment.

The Map Window

We suggest running the tutorial by pressing the "?" button in the upper right corner.

More information to follow shortly...




New Chat Features

Chat Windows now support individual tabs that can each display their own chat channels.
To add a new tab to a Chat Window, press the "+" icon in the lower right corner.
When selecting "Chat Settings..." from the right-click menu (or pressing the new Chat Settings button) you will be modifying the channel lists for the current tab only.

You can now browse a list of the available player-created chat channels directly from a Chat Window.

The active Chat Window is now more clearly denoted as such by a blue chat area. This is the window that will receive focus when you press the "Start Text Entry" key (Enter and/or slash (/), by default)
There are four new key bindings in the Options Window that will allow keyboard users to quickly switch between active Chat Windows as well as tabs within Chat Windows.

When a chat tab receives a new message, it will pulse with a gold color to notify you that there is a new message waiting. This can be disabled in the Options Window.

To delete an entire text line while typing in a chat window, you can now press "SHIFT + DELETE".

In the Chat Settings Window you can customize the chat tab names to your liking.

There is a new option in the Options Window called "Send New Player Tells to..." When receiving a new tell or joining a new chat group you can specify whether you want a completely new Chat Window, a new tab in your primary Chat Window, or to simply use an existing chat tab. You can specify which Chat Window is your primary window in the Chat Settings Window.


Two New Right-Click Menu Options

There is a new "Show/Hide Position" right-click menu toggle for the Compass Window. When turned on, it will show your world position, updated in real time, without having to continually type "/printpos".
There is a new toggle for the Player List window that sets the lists to show the members that are online only.
Cargo Disk Interface Changes

The process to attach or ground a Cargo Disk has changed. Instead of moving the disk to a different equipment slot, you can now press the Attach/Detach toggle button. When detached, there is an arrow locator to help you find it.
The command "/cargo" has been added for use in the Hotkey Editor. When executed, this attaches or grounds the equipped Cargo Disk.

Statistics raised by spending training points will properly show the increase in the base value without having to relog.
The Attack button will now be disabled if you have a dead creature targeted.

Windows should now save their normal positions correctly when they are closed in minimized mode.
Newly created read-only windows can no longer become the active window.
Read-only windows can't receive the focus when using the "Next Chat Window" key binding.
Completed quests are now displayed on a separate tab in the Quest Window.
The Map Window will display world coordinates based on the position of your mouse cursor.
The Map Window can now be bound to a key in the Options Window.




Other Client Updates


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Characters will not be able to relog until their character has finished shutting down and has saved all character data. This will fix most problems with characters loading old data when logging in.
Crafted or gathered items can now be added to existing stacks in a grounded cargo disk if it is in range.
Dragging a stack of items into a container that would cause the container to be overfilled will now move as many items from the stack into the container as possible.
Gathered resources could sometimes reserve more room than they needed; this has been fixed. This often resulted in the server thinking your inventory was full when it was not.
Both item creation and the splitting of items are now limited to one attempt every 5 seconds.
The computer's screensaver settings are restored when the game shuts down.
"/loc" has been added as an alias to /printpos.
Players can no longer emote while dead.

Healer adventure school has had the new abilities, Aura of Health II and III added. They will be available to Healers at level 54 and 74 respectively. Aura of Health repeats an augmentation every 30 seconds that heals all group members in range. This does not affect the caster of the ability.

General Adventure School notes.


Changes have been made to allow differences in skill have a greater impact on the likelihood of hitting a target.
The adventure ability Precision Style had a fallacious description. It has been changed to say, "All attacks have an increased chance to hit".
Both the Spirit Master and Spirit Adept have been altered so that they add ethereal DPS instead of physical.
Glaring Quills augmentation have level constraints on it. Glaring Quills I will require 20 adventures levels to use, Glaring Quills II will require 40 adventure levels to use, etc.
Flame Attack, Ice Attack and Energy Attack will now give damage bonuses to ranged weapons and continue to work with melee weapons. Range attackers rejoice! In addition to this change Flame Attack, Ice Attack, and Energy Attack augmentations will now stack with other damage adds! Example: Warrior ability Power Style augmentation.
Both Binding Crystals I and Self-Sacrificium I had been calling to inappropriate skills for use in combat and healing calculations that were adversely affecting their performance. They now call to ice and spirit respectively.
Mark, Brittle, and Blight spell lines have been changed to do blight damage instead of crush damage.
The spell Patch of Bramble now has a range of 30 increased from 15.

Provient du message de master71
Les US ont ce patch depuis hier...
Et y a quelques soucis au vu des VN boards.

Alors soyez pas trop pressé

Bonne remarque de master71

Car si le patch me semble TRES intéressant (je ne reviens pas sur le côté "communication", "le jeu évolue enfin", etc.) et que j'attends Lundi avec impatience, il ne faut pas oublier l'équation que nous enseigne l'expérience :
PATCH + MMORPG = Journée(s ?) d'instabilité potentielle (s ?) + Correction de bugs mais risque de plantage d'autres fonctionnalités + Découverte de modifs "négatives" (Ex.: limiter l'inventaire à 100 objets max... pur exemple de ma part, soyons clair ) non annoncées dans le descriptif du patch, etc.

Bref, autant s'attendre à une grosse galère et n'avoir que des bonnes surprises
Et qui sait, peut-être aurais-je joué les Cassandre pour rien (ce qui ne me déplairait pas )

[kurumund]

un vieux proverbe chinois dit : "Patch Day, Don't Play"

Dans beaucoup de cas, il se vérifie =)
