In the past the quests were most likely one off and with little purpose. We decided to radically change the concept by creating chained series of quests with a purpose and where possible a story. So we looked at the quests we have in game and started to tie them together. <li>After char creation a friend's letter is now guiding you to the major NPCs, which will explain the associations and factions present in Hydlaa. Players can start to follow those trails and learn more about the associations/factions. This is the foundation of a complex social system based on jobs and affiliations that we continue to develop to create a more immersive roleplay experience. <li>Many new quests were added, and many reworked, reaching a grand total of 320 quests. In particular a whole new set of Magic quests is present, allowing access to bracers, robes and wands items in the different Ways of magic. </ul> <li>Art: <ul> <li>New Amdeneir tavern. <li>Added new female ynnwn wizard robe. <li>Made available all bracers through Way quests <li>Fixed many sounds for game areas, including gugrontid and the road to bronze doors <li>several improvements to sound management (including a startup crash when the sound system failed to init) <li>Improved sounds and graphical effects of many spells, including: crystal aura, invigoration, life infusion, relaxing sleep, flaming weapon, flame spire, and many more. Work is still under going to progressively improve/fix all of them. <li>Improved hydlaa grass, sky and trees </ul> <li>For GMs/Devs: <ul> <li>expanded the scripting system in several ways for example quests can now use scripts also to give specific items, factions and money depending on variables passed to them allowing faster balancement changes in them. Additionally in mathscripts it's now possible to output messages. <li>Additional scripts used in crafting, which were before hardcoded in the sources, where now converted to math scripts. Making it easier for rules developers to change them. <li>complete rewrite of the adminmanager allowing a more generic targeting system and sane interface to gm and developers, also awarding anything to players uses a single functionality shared also in the manager of the events. expanded also killnpc to allow loading of new npc and runscript to allow more scripts to be run through it. <li>several expansions and expansions to npcclient to allow npc to do things not possible before like sitting, do emotes, teleport... </ul> <li>Others: <ul> <li>pets will now follow automatically <li>added support to define what type of chats should be logged, in which file and with what prepended brackets (check chat - logs) <li>added support for a spell checker within the chat input using hunspell. It's disabled by default and it requires to be enabled by hand for now, and the dictionaries added in a dict folder inside your ps data folder. This feature is considered experimental and unstable (and could be not available on all platforms yet) <li>removed forceful removal in operating systems different than windows of the code which allowed the hardware mouse to be used </ul> </ul> | PlaneShift 0.5.6 | updated | PlaneShift |
