[03.04.2010] Server and Client Updates

Post by Koma »

As of the 4th of March in 2010, we are now utilizing eAthena Revision 14258. For precise core changes, click the eAthena link. It's recommended to check the eAthena ChangeLog since it may include information that is not listed here.

NOTE: This update was delayed in advance by a day as quite a few updates were foreseen and to finish off some vital testing and clean-up.

Bug Fixes:
  • Monk's Mental Strength - This skill now costs 200SP instead of 50% of Max SP.
  • Auction System - An exploit was found last week by eAthena regarding a buyer being able to end auctions at will. We temporarily disabled @auction when that was announced, but now this is resolved.
  • Official Hat Fixes - Some of the official, normally non-obtainable (but obtainable on Amistr via Hat Dude) hats were pulling from outdated scripts due to old implementation. This has now been corrected and solves the issue with last week's Tiraya Bonnet.
  • New World Cards - These cards such as Tatacho, Aqua Elemental, Draco, Luciola Vespa, Centipede, Cornus, and Dark Shadow have been updated with closer (if not exact) official values.
  • Instance Bug Fixes - Courtesy of eAthena, several bugs in the Orc's Memory and Sealed Shrine instances have been corrected.
  • Battlegrounds Medals - Status change rate issues with Battleground Medals Of Honor corrected.
  • Battlegrounds Signs - Battlegrounds signboards were corrected to reflect the updated scripts.
  • Mid Camp Warp To Morocc - This warp has been removed as it somewhat served as a loophole in official eA implementation. However, this was originally sealed off on our server.
  • Guild Relay - Issues with the Guild Relay quests have been corrected such as with job recognition.
  • Guitare Hero Issues - The previously mentioned problems with GH have been corrected, but, the client-side fixes have not been pushed via a patch yet. This will follow shortly.
Other Updates:
  • Weekly Bonus Gift Drop - For this week, the latest collectible hat is Puppy Hat[0]! Remember, you can message "NPC:GiftDrop" the text "INFO!" and it will tell you what the current Gift Drop is too!
  • Official Krieger Von Midgard - The official eAthena KvM has been added. Originally, we were utilizing an Amistr ported version until this release. This is noted to currently have broadcast bugs as found out after implementation which will be fixed with the next maintenance or possibly sooner.
  • Battlegrounds Cooldown Timers - These are now controlled by the quest log. Therefore, the duration on our server for all of them is now set at 2 minutes between rounds.
  • @NoChat And @NoVend Implemented - These commands allow you to ignore chat and vend boxes from showing up on your screen. Note that this may have an adverse affect on any NPCs that may use them. Special thanks goes out to FaustVIII for developing this on eA's forums.
  • Tuning Specialist - With the addition of the two new atcommands, these are now configurable for automatic enabling upon login.
  • Mini-Game Access - The mini-games such as Protect The V.I.P., Poring Ball, Guitare Hero, and Bomberman have been moved to their own group within the Warp Manager.
  • Manuk And Splendide - The initial batch of NPCs and town warps have been implemented on our server. This includes a few 13.2 quests. And yes, this is one of the reasons why this maintenance was delayed as these updates came the following day.
  • Expansion To New World - The warpers, merchies, healers, and Cat Hand Agents are now present as sets in Manuk and Splendide. However, warps via the Warp Manager to these towns may possibly not take you directly to them at the moment.
  • War Of Emperium Rotation - The castles have actually not been rotated for this month yet, as a new activation system has been put in place. Now, any unused castles are still accessible but not able to be claimed. This replaces the old system of disabling/enabling the entrance warps. However, they WILL be rotated for this weekend's WoE with ADB2 Morning, PRT4 Afternoon, and GEF1 Night.
